  1. How old were you when you began nursing school?

    jennafezz replied to smellyacres's topic in General Students

    I'll be 22 by the time school starts, if I get in and everything goes well. :) I'll be almost 25 when the program finishes, with a

  2. How many programs/schools are you applying to?

    I'm gonna apply to three BSN (I have all of my GE and other degree requirements done so this would be my first choice) and three

  3. HELP! trying to find Fall '08 Science in No. CA

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

    Does anyone else have any experiences with adding into classes in No. Cal, or can say how many people tried to add into their science class the first day? I'm going to try for one this coming semester...

  4. Is it too late for me?

    jennafezz replied to Kimba819's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There are a lot of schools that only look at your GPA in the prereq's. Not all schools, but I've seen quite a few. Also, if you were to get straight A's in prereq's, I bet it would bump up your GPA to...

  5. How much is your pay?

    jennafezz replied to rainbowcak3's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not a nurse (yet!) but I work in a small hospital in the bay area (ca) in the accounting dept. Our new grads make about 48$ an hour (plus full benefits), experienced make between 52 and 65 plus...

  6. Go ASN or BSN first???

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

    Well, a BSN typically takes twice as long, because of the general ed requirements and all that. So if you don't want to wait 4-5 years, then do ASN. Also remember that prereq's and applying can take a...

  7. Nutrition/ would you take it w/ A&P, Chem?

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

  9. Bay area- jobs while waiting, pre-nursing school

    jennafezz replied to Duke112's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hospital jobs around here are hard to get, but keep trying. I got one with no hospital experience, but it took about 4 months of constant searching. Also, CNA training around here might be expensive...

  10. Looking for advice from students with jobs/families

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

    I also recently got married, and I'm also 20, so we're in the same boat it looks like :) I was also making around 10$ an hour when we got married, 9 months ago. My advice.. find a non-nurse job at a...

  12. Classes at two schools?

    jennafezz replied to Hello.Nurse2B's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm pretty sure that would be fine - it is around here in CA, at least. The prereq classes fill up so fast that many people don't really have a choice but to go to two or more

  13. how are you paying for nursing school? or how do you plan to pay for nursing school?

    jennafezz replied to mashamontago's topic in General Students

    Try for a non-nurse job at a hospital! Hospitals (around here, at least) always seem to pay unexpectedly well and tend to be understanding about nursing school scheduling. Plus they tend to be...

    jennafezz replied to mashamontago's topic in General Students

    Welllll.. My work will pay 5,000$ toward it (I will be going to a public university so that will cover about half), if I sign on for two years of work after graduating. I'm going to try for...

    jennafezz replied to sweetiez's topic in General Students

    God willing... I will be 24, a month away from 25, with a BSN, double major in Health Science. Would have been 22/23 if I didn't start off in only Health Science. Oh well, I'm just happy I figured it...
