  1. Nursing student taking drugs

    Cilantrophobe replied to txpatches's topic in General Students

    I totally agree. Considering TXPATCHES hasn't visited this thread to answer any questions I can only assume this thread was started simply to start some conversation. If not here is my opinion: We...

  2. Not NLNAC Accredited school cause problems later??

    Cilantrophobe replied to kneecole06's topic in General Students

    I think that it would create problems for you. Why don't you just go to NVCC? I know it is a bit of a drive all the way from Fredricksburg but you can take many of the classes online, until you enter...

  3. Don't trust certain people that want to pursue

    Cilantrophobe replied to LulaNurse's topic in General Students

    UM, excuse me but I was a total punk in high school, I skipped school, did drugs, etc. etc. But I NEVER made or asked other people to do my homework or essays. I did not graduate high school with my...

    Cilantrophobe replied to NrsheartTS's topic in Virginia Nursing

  5. HELP! Bombed the HESI Entrance Test

    Cilantrophobe replied to alphadog0228's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    I completely disagree with this statement. I studied every single page of the study guide (ISBN: 9781416056355) and loved it. I got a 92% overall on the test and did highest on the math portion of the...

  6. Chemistry Study Group for Spring 2009

    Cilantrophobe replied to kristi1111's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    OK, yesterday was our second day of class. The only thing we have focused on so far was mostly math. Sig-Figs, Scientific Notation, Rounding, etc. And she started explaining the study of chemistry at...

  7. What is your pre-nursing GPA?

    Cilantrophobe replied to ToxicShock's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What? Your college actually puts A- on your transcript? That is stupid. I am pretty sure my grade in NAS 161 was like a 91-92% but my transcript says A. I though an A was an A. I should add that my...

  8. Chemistry Study Group for Spring 2009

    Cilantrophobe replied to kristi1111's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Trust me , I know exactly how you feel. I am really good at math but I also have math amnesia. So, I constantly have to refer to my HESI study guide to refresh my math skills, any time I have a...

  9. I have a few nursing Questions if anyone can please answer them!! Thanks!!

    Cilantrophobe replied to TCLA's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    PLEASE elaborate on how students with 4.0 don't get accepted into the program... I truely hope that you are saying if 100 students with a 4.0 apply to a program with only 50 spots than the people who...

  10. What does your spring 2009 class schedule look like...?

  11. Norfolk state 2009 fall applicants

    Cilantrophobe replied to CHERY BLOSSOM's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Are you talking about you or me, or yourself?! Cause that is my same exact past 2 years. Moved once, got out of the military, started school, got married, had a baby, moved again, switched schools....

  12. Chemistry Study Group for Spring 2009

    Cilantrophobe replied to kristi1111's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I wouldn't recommend it. He is the instructor and he reserves the right to be as unfair as he wants to be. I would recommend asking him how many points the quiz was worth, and share your concerns...

  13. bottom of the totem pole-new student

    Cilantrophobe replied to lia6541's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This is exactly my plan! We can't afford for me not to work. I have to get one degree at a time. I feel both guilty and very blessed at the same time that my only responsibility from 8am-5pm is...

  14. Chemistry Study Group for Spring 2009

    Cilantrophobe replied to kristi1111's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you Kristi! WantAccel.BSN-your teacher is a jerk, I feel for you. But now that you know how he is going to be then you are going to have to arm yourself. Check out this link and tell me what you...

  15. bottom of the totem pole-new student

    Cilantrophobe replied to lia6541's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes,ADN can be instead of BSN, but many people get their associates before BSN. Typically, ADN is a 2 year degree, BSN is a 4 year degree, and Masters is 6, Doctoral/PhD is 8. Many people that that...

  16. Norfolk state 2009 fall applicants

    Cilantrophobe replied to CHERY BLOSSOM's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Are you planning on putting your kids into day care so that you can focus on school? If not I would highly recommend it. I was in the Air Force for 4 years and I met my husband while stationed at...

  17. Nervous about finishing

    Cilantrophobe replied to pamdlaw's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Well it sounds like you better change your attitude young lady! Think positive, look at how far you have come. You work full-time and go to school, that is a major accomplishment so far and nothing...

  18. Norfolk state 2009 fall applicants

    Cilantrophobe replied to CHERY BLOSSOM's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Are you military? I was stationed in Korea and it was lame! I have always wanted to go to Japan. Good luck with your application, keep us posted. I am going out of my mind waiting to apply and get...

  19. bottom of the totem pole-new student

    Cilantrophobe replied to lia6541's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just out of curosity, why is it going to take you 2 years before you can start pre-reqs? When you say general education courses are you talking about college level or non credit courses? I am not sure...

  20. Chemistry Study Group for Spring 2009

    Cilantrophobe replied to kristi1111's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Are we all guilty of checking here every day for a CHM Spring 09 thread? I know I am. Thank God somebody finally started one! I also start tomorrow, on my 26th birthday. Edited to add that I am...

  21. NOVA Courses/Teacher question

    Cilantrophobe replied to NParker's topic in Virginia Nursing

    By all means, take 2 classes rather than 3. If I understand you correctly, you are taking only pre-reqs through NOVA, and applying to the GMU nursing program correct? I just finished NAS 161 and 162...

  22. any non traditional students here?

    Cilantrophobe replied to retread71's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    here is the best definition I could find:

  23. any non traditional students here?

    Cilantrophobe replied to retread71's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree. Honestly, the larger percentage of students in all of my pre-reqs are non-traditional. I don't consider myself a 'traditional' student either. I am a 26 year old Air Force veteran and wife to...

  24. Transcript Request Hell

    Cilantrophobe replied to daisyfleur70's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Isn't applying to nursing school fun?! Just kidding, I am sorry you are going through this. Don't back down, hound them every day until you know they have mailed your transcripts. I also had several...

  25. Anyone else pinning all hope on getting accepted to ONE program?

    Cilantrophobe replied to nursing8648's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good for you Christy, I will never understand the lottery system. They do that back at Portland Community College, where I am from and I just don't get
