  1. Will medical terminologly help with A&P

    Kimberley.RN replied to Carmen29's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm taking Med Term now (after I'd already taken A&P). REALLY wish I'd taken it before! It would have helped tremendously. Med Term gets you familiar with the terms so when you get to A&P...

  3. Anyone getting ready to apply for Fall 2009?

    Kimberley.RN replied to CarinaBallerina's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi Everyone! I'll be taking Elementary Algebra over the summer and then Micro and A&P II in the Fall. Then I'll be eligible to apply and *hopefully* get accepted in a Fall 2009 program. I'll be...

  4. to all those researching LVN schools--here are my findings and opinons

    Kimberley.RN replied to eaquino1265's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Thanks for posting all the info! I ultimately want to be an RN but am keeping my options open for LVN also. Getting into a program through the CC is almost next to impossible in Northern

    Kimberley.RN replied to touchhealth's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for the link regarding programs. I'm in California also (Northern CA). What school are you attending? Would you recommend it?

  6. I think we need a second degree student section...

    Kimberley.RN replied to touchhealth's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have a Business degree. Never really did anything with it, but education is never a waste. I'm debating the ADN/BSN question also. I'm 40 and don't want to take loans but want to get done as...

  7. Waiting List VS. Actual Time Wait

    Kimberley.RN replied to Bridgett's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi MedicalNerd, I'm in the Sacramento area and will be applying after I finish Micro and A&P II in the Fall. I'm getting ready to apply and then wait. It's frustrating to know you can apply to...

  8. got accepted, but might have to pass! need help!

    Kimberley.RN replied to 9livesRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Csantos, I am so sorry! I've seen your posts throughout the board and was happy when you were accepted into a program. The only other thing I can think of is scholarships. There are plenty out...

  9. what are the requirements?

    Kimberley.RN replied to rtray's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    rtray, If it's something you want badly enough then you can do it! You just have to be determined and not let anything stand in your way. I'm a single mom (40 years old) who works FT and has 4 kids....

  10. Nutrition, Pharm or Developmental Psych class online

    Kimberley.RN replied to shelley627's topic in California Nursing

    I've taken Nutrition online before with Dr. Coppola at Sacramento City College. She's awesome! I don't know if it's being offered this summer though. I do know Sac City is offering a 2-unit...

  11. officially accepted!

    Kimberley.RN replied to 9livesRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    WAY TO GO!!!! You'll do awesome! Florida must have different requirements (or maybe it's just the school). In California you need all those classes completed before you can apply. Are you...

  12. Websites...

    Kimberley.RN replied to FutureRN~Pookie's topic in General Nursing

    These sites are GREAT!!! I'm going to take Micro and A&P II in the fall so any help I can get is much

  13. Which RN Program is better and why? Solano CC, Napa CC, or Los Medanos?

    Kimberley.RN replied to Jul2bRN's topic in California Nursing

    CONGRATULATIONS on getting accepted!!! You have to be determined and focused to stick it out that long. You're going to be an awesome nurse!! Hopefully I'll be there one day

  14. Which RN Program is better and why? Solano CC, Napa CC, or Los Medanos?

    Kimberley.RN replied to Jul2bRN's topic in California Nursing

    I don't know which programs are better. But I do know a student who applied to Solano and is waitlisted at #327. That's a LONG wait list!! Good

  15. Sac City or Modesto JC

    Kimberley.RN replied to Faith2BAnurse's topic in California Nursing

    LoveToSpa, I'm really not sure what field I want to get into. I'm hoping once I get in the program I'll have more of an idea. L/D sounds like a great area! I hope you can get there. Regarding...

  16. Sac City or Modesto JC

    Kimberley.RN replied to Faith2BAnurse's topic in California Nursing

    I know what you mean about being impatient. That's ME!!! I want to be a nurse yesterday. lol. I'm *anxiously* awaiting the summer schedules to be posted for Sac City for summer because I'd like to...

  17. LVN or RN?

    Kimberley.RN posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I need some new perspectives!!! I've been thinking about this FOREVER it seems and still can't decide what to do. Any input you can provide is much appreciated. Background... I'm a single mom of 40...

  18. Anyone know of any LVN to RN bridge programs in Northern California? Thanks^^

    Kimberley.RN replied to Johnny2254's topic in California Nursing

    There are quite a few options, depending what you're looking for. For community colleges, there's American River College, Sacramento City College (both in Sac), Sierra (in Rocklin), Solano Community...

  19. Sac City or Modesto JC

    Kimberley.RN replied to Faith2BAnurse's topic in California Nursing

    Another option is to become an LVN first and then do the LVN-RN. I'm also considering this. There are LVN programs through Delta, Yuba & Sac City that I'm looking into. The private programs...

  20. Sac City or Modesto JC

    Kimberley.RN replied to Faith2BAnurse's topic in California Nursing

    The problem I think you're going to run into is the recency requirements. I believe for Sierra it's 7 years, which means you need to have taken your prereqs within 7 yrs. I know what you mean about...

  21. need HELP with schedule...PLEASE read

    Kimberley.RN replied to TiffanyJB's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I'm interested in hearing how everyone is doing it also. I'm only in prereqs, but when I get in a NS I know it will be so much

  22. Medical Language/Terms

    Kimberley.RN replied to KIMYNURSE2B's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I use flash cards also and they work well. I recently learned about a website where you type (or cut & paste) your flash cards (word & def) and it will quiz you. Here's the info if you're...

  23. Sac City or Modesto JC

    Kimberley.RN replied to Faith2BAnurse's topic in California Nursing

    If you're willing to drive (not sure where you're located), but there's also Yuba College which requires an overall GPA of C and 2.5 gpa (for sciences & English). Here's their website:...

  24. GPA ? I'm so sad! Please help/advice/info

    Kimberley.RN replied to Mehow143's topic in California Nursing

    I would try Sierra College (Rocklin). They require that you complete all prerequisite courses with a C grade or higher. www.sierracollege.edu. Good
