  1. Which Prereq is Harder: A&P or Microbiology or Chem?

    SoCaliGirl replied to PacoUSA's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    For those who hated Chem...did you find it necessary to have before taking Physiology? It's not required at my school but they say you won't do well in Physio without it. I'd rather not take it if...

  2. Feel like crying...need encouragement

    SoCaliGirl posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had to withdraw from my classes this semester. My bf and I are moving and it will be too far for me to commute to school AND work. Which means I am putting off the science prereq's for another...

  3. Feel like crying...need encouragement

    SoCaliGirl replied to SoCaliGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have to agree with you. Sorry this one is over. You'll have to find a new somewhere else.

  4. Typical duties (and not so typical) of a med-surg nurse?

    SoCaliGirl posted a topic in Medical-Surgical

    I am about to being all my pre-req's for nursing school. I have inquired about shadowing a nurse at a couple hospitals nearby but haven't had anyone able to nail down a date for me to come in. I...

  5. Feel like crying...need encouragement

    SoCaliGirl replied to SoCaliGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Way to make assumptions about a situation you know NOTHING about. For the record, I am the one that is moving to help a family member in crisis and he cares so much about my sister that he insisted...

  6. Feel like crying...need encouragement

    SoCaliGirl replied to SoCaliGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks everyone I'm feeling better. I found an online English and psych class so I am starting to think it will be

  7. Any advice on how to group classes each semester and GPA question!!

    SoCaliGirl replied to bcjones's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's what I'm talking about! What if I do ALL this hard work over the next year and then I don't get in because I get one B or something? Around here, it's all gpa and points based, meaning if you...

  8. Anatomy and Chem this Fall...who else?

    SoCaliGirl posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Anyone else taking Chem and Anatomy together this fall? I'm ready to hammer the science pre-req's out this year, so I'll only be taking those two classes and then then just Physiology and Micro in...

  9. list of CA direct entry MSN and accelerated BSN programs

    SoCaliGirl replied to Myethpio's topic in California Nursing

    That list is from 2005. Stuff has changed since then. For example, CSU Long Beach no longer has an Accelerated BSN

  10. Any advice on how to group classes each semester and GPA question!!

    SoCaliGirl replied to bcjones's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Be careful because a lot of schools in California don't let you retake classes. They will go by the first grade you received. I've found that attending info sessions at the specific programs is...

  11. In what order do you recommend taking these Pre-Requisites/General Ed Requirements?

    SoCaliGirl replied to LCGrace's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I recommend sort of the same thing. Chem and Anatomy together one semester and Physio and Micro the next. That's what I will be doing. I don't know why, but I don't like the idea of doing a science...

  12. Do you think this was rude?

    SoCaliGirl replied to Ms. Nurse Assistant's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think that's what makes me (I'm sorry) laugh a little bit here. I WISH that the "rude" people I dealt with every day were like that secretary. That would be a dream compared to the general public...

  13. Anatomy and Chem this Fall...who else?

    SoCaliGirl replied to SoCaliGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Is math key to doing well in Chem? As in, if I'm not a very strong science student but am GREAT at math, is an A

  14. Anatomy and Chem this Fall...who else?

    SoCaliGirl replied to SoCaliGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good news! I was able to add the Anatomy class!!! So I am back to my original plan of having Anatomy and Chem this fall. I can't wait to start. Hopefully we can be a support for each other in the...

  15. How is the teamwork going in your lab?

    SoCaliGirl replied to Ms. Nurse Assistant's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Oh yeah it's totally obvious during presentations who did their part and who

  16. How is the teamwork going in your lab?

    SoCaliGirl replied to Ms. Nurse Assistant's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Ditto...except for 99% of all group work I've ever had, it's with the people who are so excited to have a C. I end up taking over so I can get an A. No one ever has a problem, and if they want to go...

  17. Do you think this was rude?

    SoCaliGirl replied to Ms. Nurse Assistant's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I still don't get how she was being rude by saying that you need to go get a stamp. Did she say it in a rude way? Did she yell at you? Did she roll her

  18. How hard is A and P??

    SoCaliGirl replied to spoiltmom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Do you think that chemistry is necessary before Anatomy? I was told that I should take chem first but I already have the anatomy book and kind of want to use it before it gets replaced with a new...

  21. ADN or accelerated BSN?

    SoCaliGirl replied to D.Danger's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Honestly, most schools are so different from each other, that you would have to figure out which school you might want to attend after your ADN and find out what their specific classes

  22. Do you think this was rude?

    SoCaliGirl replied to Ms. Nurse Assistant's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I guess I'm still not understand where the rudeness comes in. Are you calling her rude for following a policy? A stamp costs money. That would be the same thing as not knowing that a fast food...

  23. Do you think this was rude?

    SoCaliGirl replied to Ms. Nurse Assistant's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You didn't know the procedure because you hadn't done it before and no one had told you. She wasn't rude for following her procedure. It seems like two separate

  24. Are you getting a ADN or going straight to BSN ?

    SoCaliGirl replied to zrodriguez's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I will be doing the ADN and then RN-BSN or RN-MSN. Reasons: 1) I have EIGHT possible community colleges near me while there are only TWO colleges to get a higher degree (EL-MSN = so...

    SoCaliGirl replied to greeniebean's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I hate complainers too! It's like they could win a million dollars and they would just complain that they have to pay taxes on
