  1. AACC Spring 2012 hopefuls?

    AprilAnney replied to AprilAnney's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Thanks a bunch! It wasn't too rough. Math, reading comprehension, and English language were what I expected (although I'm second guessing myself on a lot of the grammar!). Thankfully I'm fresh out...

  2. University of Maryland

    AprilAnney replied to celinaconejo's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Thanks for the heads up! I'll be rushing to get my AACC app in by the end of this week and just planned on cranking out both apps

  3. University of Maryland

    AprilAnney replied to celinaconejo's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Thanks for the advice on Che 113- I just checked and it's only offered Mon & Wed early evening lectures- a time that doesn't work for me. I have Sherer for lecture and Sivalingham for lab. I...

  4. University of Maryland

    AprilAnney replied to celinaconejo's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Thank you so much for your thorough answers! AACC now requires that we take the TEAS V. And they don't offer it in the testing center- we have to go to an old PSI testing center and pay for it- to...

  5. UMB Spring 2012

    AprilAnney replied to kels320's topic in Maryland Nursing

    My intention was to go for my ADN at AACC- but they just recently changed their admissions process, making it noncompetitive (thus losing any amount of prestige a community college may have carried)....

  6. AACC Spring 2012 hopefuls?

    AprilAnney replied to AprilAnney's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Are you looking for ADN or BSN programs? University of Maryland School of Nursing is an excellent option for BSN- one that I'm looking in to last minute. Where in MD will you & your husband be...

  7. AACC Spring 2012 hopefuls?

    AprilAnney replied to AprilAnney's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I got an email back from the director, Beth Batturs, that it is first come first serve. I think the deadline exists so that they're not still admitting people to the program a few weeks before it...

  8. A&P 1 Question

    AprilAnney replied to vintagemother's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Also, body planes, quadrants, anatomical position and

  9. A&P 1 Question

    AprilAnney replied to vintagemother's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Chemistry of life, types of tissue, types and functions of epithelium. Don't panic- it's not too rough.

  10. University of Maryland

    AprilAnney replied to celinaconejo's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Is the "Human Growth and Development" pre-req the same as Developmental Psych? I'm hoping so... I'm currently at AACC and getting frustrated with their changing admissions policies (which have now...

  11. AACC Spring 2012 hopefuls?

    AprilAnney replied to AprilAnney's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I just printed out a new application and saw that difference... With this change, it means that someone with a 2.5 in the prereqs and a 2.0 overall can get in the class before me so long as they have...

  13. AACC Spring 2012 hopefuls?

    AprilAnney replied to AprilAnney's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Slots are being filled on a first come first served basis?! I haven't even finished A&P 2 yet, so I can't put my application in. I was under the impression that they get all the applications...

  14. $50,000 for post-Bachelor BSN!

    AprilAnney replied to weirhead69's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'd recommend just going for an ADN at your local community college. Significantly cheaper and the same job at the end of the

  15. AACC Spring 2012 hopefuls?

    AprilAnney replied to AprilAnney's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I saw that about the hybrid program- although I had been told previously that it was given to students with higher GPA/test scores. It puts me at a disadvantage because I won't be finished A&P 2...

  16. What to do

    AprilAnney replied to gloriagalbearth's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I honestly have never heard of the 2014 no more ADN nursing thing. If that were the case, most community colleges would probably eliminate their nursing program, no? I'm set to graduate at the end...

  17. Just starting the Journey...

    AprilAnney replied to tex42cares's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi there! I was in your shoes this time last year! I finally came to terms with the fact that I was not happy with my current job and it was time to actually do something about it instead of...

  18. Know-it-all nursing students?

    AprilAnney replied to magichospital's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    HA! Do we know the same person?! A coworker of mine does the same thing. You just have to look at it this way: she's just trying to help in her own special way. Yes, it can be obnoxious, but it's...

  19. Not sure about LPN vs. RN vs. BSN!

    AprilAnney replied to greatlakes's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've done a little bit of research with the ADN vs. BSN issue. I ruled out LPN from the beginning. I'm currently in community college going for my ADN with the intention of doing an MSN bridge...

  20. NOT understanding what I am reading

    AprilAnney replied to NatashaCNA85's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Have you taken any chemistry or A&P courses yet? Do you need to take the TEAS for your pre requisites for the nursing program? Why don't you wait until after you complete pre requisites so that...

  21. Summer A&P Crisis

    AprilAnney replied to CordaeP's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm taking A&P 2 in a 6 week summer session and I'm slightly nervous about it. I did fine in A&P 1, but it was a traditional 15 week course with an amazing professor who took the time to...

  22. Volunteer Cuddlers Program in the NICU

    AprilAnney replied to gggaaabbbbyyy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't know how to start a program like this, but I'd love to get involved with one! I might contact my hospital to see if they have a program and if not, I'll look in to implementing one. Have you...

  23. How much does they "type of degree" matter?

    AprilAnney replied to MyGranniePanties's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with the school reputation notion. Potential employers aren't going to know your grades, but if you graduate from a school with a stringent academic policy, you'll have a leg-up with a degree...

  24. Sad...and jealous?

    AprilAnney replied to caprisiosa's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Don't let it bum you out. We all take different paths and you can't compare yours to anyone else's. You had very legitimate reasons for your decision. And admirable ones at that. Choosing to stay...

  25. Advice please - My Fall schedule (longish)

    AprilAnney replied to Phoenixbyrd's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You'll notice that Medical Terminology and A&P will be a lot of the same material. I took A&P 1 last semester and I am taking Med Term this semester and a lot of it is just refreshers from my...
