  1. Getting first nursing job in this economy

    c_white1 replied to cameron764's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks, Becky! It's good to hear some actual good news on this front. Would you mind sharing what area of the country you are in? I'd be curious to

  2. What makes a bad nurse?

    c_white1 replied to cpo_one's topic in General Students

    Those that take pix of their patient's x-rays and post them on their Facebook pages. (Did you see that article posted recently? Those two idiots sure fit the bill.) Seriously, any nurse that lacks...

  3. Who else read the article in todays Arizona Repub new grad nurses can't find work

    c_white1 replied to aawilwcb's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My thoughts are that this is a problem that has been grossly under reported. Further, this is a problem that is not limited to AZ. (Check out the MA region board on this website.) I have not heard...

  4. To the girl who was texting all through chemistry class....

    c_white1 replied to polka-dot's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had this in my chemistry class as well. The only difference is that the offender was male. He often appeared to be sound asleep. Did he really think that the teacher would not find this rude???...

  5. To the girl who was texting all through chemistry class....

    c_white1 replied to polka-dot's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    YES! I just took Chem last semester and my professor had all but thrown in the towel on controlling the class. It was ridiculous. Texting, cheating, talking throughout lectures and labs...I saw it...

  6. UMASS accelerated BSN program

    c_white1 replied to AlyRNtoBe's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    This is great information! Thanks so much. Can you please tell me about the age range in your class? I plan to apply and I'm wondering how many "older" second career people are in this program. How...

  7. Plans if not accepted into nursing school

    c_white1 replied to Doug85's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This thread is of huge interest to me. I'm starting to wonder what I will do if I don't get admitted into nursing school. I'm curious to know about how hard it would be to switch into some kind of...

  10. North shore C.C

    c_white1 replied to borntobanurse3's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Yes, I'm 43 and waiting to hear from the programs I've applied

  12. What a terrible way to start off the new year

    c_white1 replied to Ms. Nurse Assistant's topic in General Students

    Oh, you mean you don't want to be someone who perseveres, stays positive and pursues her dreams even when others think she's "too old"? I'm not really sure what you intended with this post, but it's...

  13. Where did you buy textbook for pre-requisite courses?

    c_white1 replied to greenland's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have bought all my books from Amazon. It's SO much cheaper to buy them there than at my college

  14. New BSN grad for Boston: can new grads start only 2x a year??

    c_white1 replied to gtown08's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Gtown and Samm, would you be willing to share with us which 2nd degree program you graduated from and how you liked it? I'm looking at several 2nd degree BSNs in the area and would love some feedback...

  15. Spring 2009 Classes

    c_white1 replied to Adams_Mommy_07's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I will be taking Statistics for sure, and possibly Organic Chem and/or Pathophysiology and/or Human Genetics (depending on where I get in). I may also take Precalculus "just cuz."

  17. Got at C+ in A&PI.... what would YOU do?

    c_white1 replied to babyblue113's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If it were me, I would definitely retake it. I think you want to have your A+P grades as high as possible. With regards to taking it with another professor, I agree with others who've said that you...

  18. If you could study before A & P I, what would you have done to get ahead before it??

    c_white1 replied to vizzle's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I definitely would have benefited from a biology refresher -- with particular emphasis on cellular biology and chemistry. Good

  19. letters of recommendation

    c_white1 replied to icechick's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with the other poster. Get another reference!! Forget this guy. Anyone who drags their feet this much is trying to tell you something -- they don't want to do it. If you can't get another...

  20. MGH Institute of Health Professions

    c_white1 replied to AdrienneRN2b's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    I'm wondering about this, too. Why would they wait to notify everyone? Do you think they both accepted and declined applications in this first round? The only thing that makes sense in my mind is...

  21. Anyone else waiting to hear from MGH for the May '09 ABSN?

    Has anyone heard anything yet? I got an email stating that one round of letters had already gone out, and that another was slated to go out on the 15th of

  23. So sad. :(

    c_white1 replied to HappyPediRN's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

    Sorry to hear that you are still without a job. Do you have any flexibility to relocate? What about trying an area of the country (or MA) where there is more of a demand? Hang in there and best of...

    :yeah:Congrats! I'm still waiting to hear on one of my classes but I got an A- in Chem! Yay, me! :) I'm looking forward to a few weeks

  25. "Nursing students with C's are still nurses".. ?

    c_white1 replied to whiteoleander5's topic in General Students

    One of the best things I've learned over the course of my 43 years is that generalizations rarely hold true. Believe in yourself, try your hardest to be the best you can be, and keep assumptions to a...
