    jennafezz replied to MrsTLC's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  4. Question for nursing students in Bay Area, CA

    jennafezz posted a topic in General Students

    Hi, I live in the Bay Area, and I'm trying to figure out what schools I want to apply to next year. I read a thread about Merritt College in Oakland, and how 75% of the freshmen this year have already...

  5. Some advice about the Peralta Colleges concerning Nursing

    jennafezz replied to Jackskelington's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I found this posted on craigslist, I did not write it (I'm not in a nursing program yet) but I found it interesting, and it obviously won't stay up on clist forever so I'm pasting it here:...

  6. Some advice about the Peralta Colleges concerning Nursing

    jennafezz replied to Jackskelington's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm glad you posted this. I'm going to be applying next fall and Merritt was definitely on my list, because it's about a half hour away from me and I was going to apply anywhere within a certain...

  8. I'm old and I need my RN ASAP

    jennafezz replied to Vivy's topic in General Students

    lol actually you're not old even for starting from scratch. http://www.rn.ca.gov/pdfs/schools/0607prelicensure.pdf that's a data summary of people starting an RN program in california (my state), and...

  9. Night and Weekend programs in Bay Area

    jennafezz replied to jse7en's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've never heard of any. I'm in the bay area too. There are a lot of night classes for pre-req's though, if you aren't done with those yet. All community colleges should have some available. I have a...

  10. RN or RN to BSN? And night classes? Day jobs?

    jennafezz replied to Noaloha's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    And also, since you already have a bachelor's, I don't think you need a BSN (like someone above me said) because you'll be able to get into most master's programs if you have an RN and a BA in another...

  11. RN or RN to BSN? And night classes? Day jobs?

    jennafezz replied to Noaloha's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Pretty much every RN program I have seen is a full-time day program, and I live in the Bay Area too. No matter which route you go, you will most likely have to give up your day job for the

  12. Confused...

    jennafezz replied to Uthemann's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you're not in a super crazy hurry to get your RN, start another major if you don't get in, but keep trying to get in every year. You can do something like psych, biology, health sciences, etc.....

  13. what are the best majors to better prepare you for an ABSN program?

    jennafezz replied to aggiepack177's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Both of those depend on the schools :) UCSF, for example, lets you sit for the NCLEX after the first year, and the total cost (for all three years) is about equal to the cost of the one year ABSN at...

  14. what are the best majors to better prepare you for an ABSN program?

    jennafezz replied to aggiepack177's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I went to a state university for my first year, and transferred to a CC to finish GE/pre-req's.. I think the university had harder tests and general material, but the CC gave more busy work and...

  15. what are the best majors to better prepare you for an ABSN program?

    jennafezz replied to aggiepack177's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    ELMSN programs are usually three years - the first year is very similar to the ABSN program (intense), and you can usually get your RN license after the first year. So really, you'd be getting your RN...

  16. what are the best majors to better prepare you for an ABSN program?

    jennafezz replied to aggiepack177's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Best majors.. I'd say biology or health science. I don't fully agree that would be the *best* option for you, though. Have you looked into entry level master's programs? You could get a bachelor's in...

  17. CSUEB question!

    jennafezz replied to justastudent08's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well the good thing about majoring in something else is that you're not just 'waiting around' to get into nursing, you're doing something worthwhile in the meantime. So, if it takes you two more years...

  18. CSUEB question!

    jennafezz replied to justastudent08's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm going to apply for 2010 at CSUEB because I still have some pre-req's to finish, but in the meantime I am also going to work on a health sciences BS, since the lower division requirements for...

  19. Rate My Professor

    jennafezz replied to BenevolentOne's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I always use Rate My Professor, and sure it's all subjective, but I've always found it to be very true. I always rate my professors and it seems that my ratings generally agree with the ones before...

  21. Single in SF Bay

    jennafezz replied to tinderbox's topic in California Nursing

    jennafezz replied to sophieblophie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
