  1. Hey! NYC Nursing students...need HELP!...

    guiltysins replied to Scrub2Nurse's topic in New York Nursing

    It's good you have a lot of pre-reqs knocked out of the way. I would say NYU is probably your best bet but you still might be missing two pre-reqs (chem, nutrition). I'm assuming you don't want to get...

  2. Quitting nursing school before starting

    guiltysins replied to goldbla19's topic in New York Nursing

    Don't go based on what other people are saying. There are a lot of my friends who have jobs. You should't be worried about the Pharm exam either. You take pharmacology and continue to practice what...

  3. Most in demand field for New Grads in NYC now?

    guiltysins replied to SPower82's topic in New York Nursing

  4. New nursing student

    guiltysins replied to kalhonaaho's topic in General Students

    I'm also starting in the fall and while I'm very anxious I'm also very nervous. About the group studying, I think it depends on the situation. For one the students in your class. If they aren't...

  5. CUNY York College nursing

    guiltysins replied to shaggybulldog's topic in New York Nursing

    Seriously? They haven't even started it yet? They've been talking about their 4 year BSN program for over a year now and it's not even there? Ridiculous! Also, I don't know if I missed something but...

  6. Two associate degrees to BSN?

    guiltysins replied to NurseEric81's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    They can't make it into a BSN, your classes from both degrees can count TOWARDS a BSN and then you can start nursing classes, if you don't have anymore pre-reqs to complete. But at the end you would...

  7. Question.

    guiltysins replied to TCLA's topic in General Students

    Orgo chem is just an intro course, it's not like med school orgo. Same with me as the person above, my organic chem was a special class designed for health profession students so we went more into...

  9. Hunter-Bellevue A2D 2010

    guiltysins replied to meddle44's topic in General Students

    No it doesn't, if you can't afford NYU, don't go to NYU. If you're licensed and graduated from an accredited school you can get a job. Mostly all of the nursing programs in the city use the same...

  10. LBCC-Planning for Nursing School

    guiltysins replied to CourtC's topic in General Students

    It's going to depend on your area on the whole ADN vs BSN thing. If your area does hire ADN nurses then you can get hired in any specialty, including L&D, they might want you to have experience...

  11. patient friend request on Facebook

    guiltysins replied to birdwalk33's topic in General Nursing

    I'm still a student and fairly young but for me, I don't add anyone on facebook that I don't know. All of my friends are real friends, it's not like myspace for me. Facebook originally was for...

  13. I need some major advice!

    guiltysins replied to Marcik's topic in General Students

    Okay so I did some research on the school you listed, I don't go to the school but this is how it goes. 1. First you have to do Pre-Reqs, these are classes you have to take before being accepted into...

  14. ADN to MSN yay or nay ?

    guiltysins replied to Elleveein's topic in General Students

    Actually there are some traditional MSN programs that you can apply to if you have a Bachelor's in another field along with your ADN. They don't have to be ADN to MSN

  15. People think you are rich because you are a nurse

    guiltysins replied to chenoaspirit's topic in General Nursing

  16. Revised Cover letter

    guiltysins replied to EDRN-2010's topic in General Nursing

    Also from what I've learned in school, we were told to mention short term and long-term goals that we would like to accomplish in 5 or so and how their hospital would help you accomplish that goal.....

  17. Military wife/mom of 2 - nursing school and peds career really possible?

    guiltysins replied to DarcyD's topic in Pediatric

    I think it's very possible and congrats for even entertaining the idea. What I would suggest is that you do most, if not all of your pre-reqs online, it will be difficult but it would help. My sister...

  18. Conflicting advice on OB/GYN as new grad...

    guiltysins replied to Shanlee79's topic in Ob/Gyn

  19. Advice on class overload or just right 4 Fall 2010

    guiltysins replied to Mintyfreshness23's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  20. Alternative to BSN Bachelor degrees

    guiltysins replied to ekgoodwi's topic in General Students

    I think it would depend on what your long-term goals were. If you want to do management then health care management might help but there are classes in BSN programs for nurse management and leadership...

  21. Nursing School Thoughts

    guiltysins replied to my4helpers's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What exactly are we talking in terms of double? Double as in one school is 5K a year and the other is 10K because I personally don't think that is bad, at least not compared to what I'm paying! I had...

  23. Is my school the only one that ends this late?

    guiltysins replied to Work in Progress's topic in First Year After Licensure

    There are a few schools in my area that don't have graduation until the 26-28th. Then there are some schools that finish incredibly early, like around the last week or so in April. I know it seems...

  24. NYU Accelerated BSN Fall 2010

    guiltysins replied to ChristinaG123's topic in General Students

    @smileymimi - You definetely nailed it, everyone is blinded by their fantasies of what NYC is like and I can admit that yes it's pretty awesome but also has it's own set of problems that people do...

  25. What specialty do you want and not want to work in?

    guiltysins replied to guiltysins's topic in General Students

    Bumping this back up. I also wanted to say that there has been a lot of growing interest (at least on this site) about corrections. I can honestly say I NEVER even thought about that before. How do...
