  1. NWLB is crap

    SnowStar4 replied to Anne36's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Yeah it doesn't make too much sense, none of it does. I can't qualify for financial aide because I made a ton of money in 2007. They don't care that it was severence because I was laid off, or the...

  2. CNA vs Nurse Tech?

    SnowStar4 replied to Annieee's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Great Question! I was wondering the exact same thing. I was looking at some job postings to see what I could and was a little unsure.

  3. NWLB is crap

    SnowStar4 replied to Anne36's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I know it is easy to get discouraged but please don't quit. You can find a way, and it's really going to pay off in the end. Have you checked into private loans? I know it sucks to have to think about...

  4. signing bonus?

    SnowStar4 replied to goodgalpal's topic in Michigan Nursing

    That sucks! I'm trying to avoid new loans since I still have them from my BS degree. Sounds like I'd be better off taking them so that a hospital will pay them

  5. signing bonus?

    SnowStar4 replied to goodgalpal's topic in Michigan Nursing

    What if you didn't take student loans? Think they would just reimburse you directly or would you lose

  6. Need help preparing for the Hesi A2 Entrance Exam

    SnowStar4 replied to love2barn's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Kiki- I don't think this is going to work. Your email wouldn't accept any large documents. I tried splitting it up but it still won't accept it. It's about 65MB total.

  9. Need help preparing for the Hesi A2 Entrance Exam

    SnowStar4 replied to love2barn's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I would say start by relaxing. It really is not a hard exam, and the more relaxed you are, the better you will do. Go over the Hesi study guide and do all of the practice problems. This should show...

  10. Nurses Please Help

    SnowStar4 replied to dewberrysquish's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Wow! I never thought of people going in to nursing for money! I'm quitting my job in a couple weeks to move and begin nursing school, a career that will pay me about half what I get now. I guess it...

    SnowStar4 replied to gemberly's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I haven't taken an online science class through Macomb but I did take Nutrition and Psych. Both were easy as heck and easy to follow. Assignmets and time lines were spelled out clearly. I am taking...

  14. PDA Recommendations?

    SnowStar4 posted a topic in Michigan Nursing

    Hey All, I was just browsing PDAs and there are just so many choices. What PDAs do you guys have and what do you think of them? Any insight would be great.

  15. PDA Recommendations?

    SnowStar4 replied to SnowStar4's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Don't worry about it! It's a simple mistake. That's funny though becaue I have a DS that I got free from comcast so I was trying to figure out how the heck it could do all those things. I was

  16. PDA Recommendations?

    SnowStar4 replied to SnowStar4's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Great, thanks for all the info. I am starting at MCC in october so I will probably be buying one soon so I can play with it and get used to it. What medical dictionaries did you guys buy? I knw they...

  17. :) I got my start date for MCC...

    SnowStar4 replied to Hootnhollern's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I'm going to wait until August to register when I move to MI. That way I am in-state and can save a couple hundred bucks. It's nice that there are 30 spots for 30 people so I don't have to

    SnowStar4 replied to Hootnhollern's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I finally know! I start in

  19. Chem 1 vs. Microbio - Which should I take with AP2?

    SnowStar4 replied to Raas4555's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I am taking micro and A& P 2 right now. It's a lot of work but not really bad. Micro is interesting. I'm a chemist so it wouldn't bother me to take chem at the same time as other hard classes,...

    SnowStar4 replied to Hootnhollern's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I will try contacting them again tomorrow. They shoud have sent them all at the same time since whether we start in aug or not we need to plan our lives. Waiting is not

    SnowStar4 replied to Hootnhollern's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Do you guys know if people who do not start in August got their starts dates when you did? I still haven't gotten mine. I thought it would come while I was on vacation last week but I got in last...

  22. :) I got my start date for MCC...

    SnowStar4 replied to Hootnhollern's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Definitly sign up for the HESI right away. I didn't decide to apply until last Oct. so by the time I found out about the HESI all the weekend slots were full. That left me flying to MI for a .5hour...

  23. :) I got my start date for MCC...

    SnowStar4 replied to Hootnhollern's topic in Michigan Nursing

    So honestly, the HESI is not hard at all. I think an 8th grader should be able to pass it. The only thing that threw me off was that there were some anatomy terms in the general knowledge section that...

  24. A&P2 or Micro at Colorado CC online?

    SnowStar4 posted a topic in Colorado Nursing

    Has anyone taken A&P2 or microbiology through colorado community college online? If yes, do you really need to buy the whole lab pack or could I get away with buying just the lab manual and...

    SnowStar4 replied to Hootnhollern's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Lucky! I was just logging in to aks if anyone had gotten it yet! Mine will be delayed a few days since I am far away. I'm sure I am going to be stuck with a January-March date though. I'm finishing...
