1. How did you guys take the Pharm/ Pathophys prereq?

   rtbcsu replied to espo44's topic in General Students

   I took Patho online from the U of Iowa w/o setting foot in the state of Iowa. You can set up proctored exams in your hometown, and you don't pay out of state tuition. Just make sure your school will...

2. Well, I'm a dummy!

   rtbcsu replied to Carmen29's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   I had a similar problem this summer. I had booked a cruise way in advance, then found my school wasn't offering the online version of a "transition" course this summer. I had to have the course to...

3. A & P 1- online or classroom?

   rtbcsu replied to MemphisTiger's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   I took both semesters of A & P online, but with a show-up-in-person lab (which I scheduled at night). You have to determine your preferred learning style and your daily schedule to know what will...

4. Exams unfair, and prof won't do anything about it.

   rtbcsu replied to katmarieRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   The same thing happened in my development psych class, but the professor adjusted the grade if you pointed out the specific questions that were the problem. In my opinion, it is a very lazy way to...

5. Anatomy and Physiology I online? Ever Done it?

   rtbcsu replied to Luv2helpppl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   I took both A & P classes and micro online and loved it. You are more or less teaching it to yourself by reading the book. But I still had to show up in person for

6. finish prerequisites completely before applyingor not?

   rtbcsu replied to macizu's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   Don't know specifics about Texas, but it is not unusual in Georgia to be admitted pending completion of pre-reqs. You just have to tell them when you plan to take the classes, then have transcripts...

7. With my mediocore GPA, is nursing school even possible?

   rtbcsu replied to dimpalz25's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   I noticed your location is Georgia. I had a 3.0 in my first degree, made all A's in the pre-reqs I was missing, and was accepted by 2 of the 3 schools I applied to in the Atlanta area. So do well in...

8. Emory admission rates?

   rtbcsu replied to dohzenOFF's topic in Georgia Nursing

   I applied for the second degree BSN, not the BSN/MSN segue. They gave no explanation, just a standard rejection letter that said there were more applicants than places, blah, blah. I was accepted...

9. Emory admission rates?

   rtbcsu replied to dohzenOFF's topic in Georgia Nursing

   I am surprised that GGT1's friend was accepted. Yes, Emory is an expensive school, but they do not lack for applications. I was not accepted as a 2nd degree student with a 3.0 on my first BS...

10. Emory admission rates?

    rtbcsu replied to dohzenOFF's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I am surprised that GGT1's friend was accepted. I was rejected as a 2nd-degree BSN student even though I had a 3.0 with my BS in biology and a 4.0 in nursing pre-requisites. They don't care about...

11. Emory admission rates?

    rtbcsu replied to dohzenOFF's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I have heard that you need at least a 3.5 to get in, so I am surprised by GGT1's comment. I was not accepted by Emory as a 2nd degree BSN student. I had a 3.0 for my BS in Biology (many years ago)...

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

    rtbcsu replied to touchhealth's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am a 47-year-old second degree student who didn't use any student loans for the first degree. So now I have been awarded some Stafford loan money, and planned to borrow the rest of what I need from...

13. Pathophysiology class

    rtbcsu replied to 2008el's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Clayton State offers Pathophysiology. Or you can take it online from schools outside the state, such as the University of
