  1. Just need to vent again, considering not going back to nursing school at all (V LONG)

    jennileigh8182 replied to Comfortably_Numb's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just an FYI...Nuva Ring is how I ended up with a little boy! And, when I had my first visit with my OB, she said, "Hmmm, you're the second one this week to get pregnant on Nuva

  2. Anybody buy a skeleton for A&P?

    jennileigh8182 replied to MemphisTiger's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    A and P were separate classes for me, but 4.0'ed both without the need for a skeleton. My lab book and looking at models during lab sessions was plenty. I'd agree with the waste of money

  3. pre-req grades

    jennileigh8182 replied to andr3w's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That is not true for all Michigan schools. The one I'm attending requires: Intro to Writing Biological Foundations for Physiology Anatomy Physiology Microbiology Math (not sure which, didn't have to...

  5. Too poor to become a nurse?

    jennileigh8182 replied to WannaBeNrse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Something else to consider...the CC that I'm attending has a part-time nursing program. It takes longer, but it allows you to work more while attending school if you need to. I'm planning to do the...

  6. Too poor to become a nurse?

    jennileigh8182 replied to WannaBeNrse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'll admit that I only read the first page of this before posting, but you are definitely not alone! At present, my husband works 40hrs/wk at 9.75/hr. My boss will only give me 30hrs/wk at 12.75/hr....

  7. Nursing process

    jennileigh8182 replied to andr3w's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Definitely check out how admission to the program works for the school you're interested in. I encountered two different situations where I live. the local university's second degree program...

  8. Nursing options???

    jennileigh8182 replied to littlesquirt's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with the other posters, but also to speak from a patient's perspective... A nurse's willingness to help and do the dirty work is a very important and touching thing to the patient. When I was...

  9. LCC Accelerated Program - what's it like?

    jennileigh8182 replied to naners0978's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Hi, naners0978! I also plan to start the program next fall. I just have pharmacology to finish up! I have an 8 month old child, but he's been in daycare since he was 5.5 weeks old. My mom watched...

  10. PCT and CNA whats the difference

    jennileigh8182 replied to KdnRN2B's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    It may vary by area. Where I live, there were three class offerings: 1. Acute care 2. Long-term care 3. Acute and Long-term care Acute care trains PCTs and the class is shorter. Long-term care...

  11. LCC Accelerated Program

    jennileigh8182 posted a topic in Michigan Nursing

    Does anyone happen to know what the point value was for admission for the accelerated (2nd degree program) at LCC this year? I plan to apply for this coming year. I should have 53-54 points. I...

  12. LCC Accelerated Program

    jennileigh8182 replied to jennileigh8182's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Thank you so much for finding that out for me! That really alleviates some of my stress since I'm well above the cutoff for this year, and I can't imagine the cutoff raising 10 points or more in one...

  13. Anyone have a federal direct loan?

    jennileigh8182 replied to inspire's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Apparently, this varies by school. I attend LCC and after tuition is paid, they mail out the remainder of your student loan for that semester usually the first day of classes (which is generally a...

  16. Looking for information re: RN admission to MSN program w/non-nursing BS?

    jennileigh8182 replied to AJL_91's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Michigan State does not require a BSN for their Master's programs. I have a B.A. in Social Relations, which I have never used. I'm currently finishing the prereqs for an accelerated 2nd degree...

  17. Newbie here.. asking for some help ~ a bit long

    jennileigh8182 replied to c+k=<3's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm 26 and currently finishing up my pre-reqs for an accelerated second 2nd degree nursing program (just pharmacology to go!), but there have been students in my prereqs classes that have been 50+....

  18. Confused about how to proceed

    jennileigh8182 replied to Miwila's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Kelzy... It really depends on the area. In Michigan, I've heard that ADN and BSN RNs make the same rate of pay (a few have said there may be a .25-.50/hr. difference, but $18,000 in schooling is...

  19. Confused about how to proceed

    jennileigh8182 replied to Miwila's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm in a similar position. I have a B.A. in Social Relations (geared toward law school). I recently chose to return to school for an accelerated nursing program. I'm almost done with my prereqs...
