  1. new grad

    You're not going to succeed every time! It's the bumps in the road that get us to where we are meant to be. If it weren't for my bumpy road, I would never have even entered nursing. Just hang in...
  2. I believe any healthcare program is competitive because you will directly or indirectly be tampering with the lives of patients. The program can't just let anyone in. They want the students that have...

  6. BSN vs. ADN + BS in other field

    I really don't think your BS in an unrelated field will help you any in nursing. And, I've never heard of a program that allows you to get a masters in nursing without any prior degrees in nursing....
  7. The program chair at Ivy Tech in Indy said that the highest TEAS score that they have ever had was a 97. If you really got a 95, I don't think the B will hold you back. Ivy Tech now takes 60 RN...

  14. 1 year in and I cannot do bedside anymore!

    Have you ever considered going into OR? If you hate dealing with patients roaming, complaining, or pawing the call button, then perhaps the unconscious patients will be more your bag. You could...
  15. Off topic..feeling really dumb and afraid!

    Unfortunately for you, nursing is not memorizing facts from flash cards. It requires A LOT of critical thinking and creative problem solving. If math and science boggle your mind due to the critical...

  20. First Code (Sorry it's long)

    I think that by staying you showed the staff that you were not only willing to help in anyway possible, but that you could handle the stress and uncertainty of the situation. You absolutely did the...
  21. OR Internship

    I am an ASN student, and I have been researching careers in nursing. I am mesmerized by the idea of working in OR. However, I was wondering-- do OR internship programs take ASN graduates or only those...
  22. Anatomy and Physiology together? IUPUI

    I think taking both together would be difficult. I took both at IUPUI and they both require a tremendous amount of study time. Anatomy provided the basics on which the physio. was built on, so if you...

    Congratulations on your new position! How exciting! I will have 132 credits by the time I graduate (yeah... I was a degree switcher!), so if this helped you, I hope it works in my favor as well. Any...
