    LilMSSunshine replied to future123's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    LilMSSunshine replied to ijustwnt2beanurse's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Yep. Since you are only 3 classes away from completing your B.S. in Biology why not finish it up, and then apply to a BSN program. There are 3 types of BSN programs: RN-BSN: for those who already are...

  4. Advice on Nursing Schools :(

    LilMSSunshine replied to audacia's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    90 percentile is good right? You scored better than 90% of people who took the test. Stop being so harsh on yourself. A 3.3 is a pretty good GPA; it is not bad. I would apply to other schools and...

  12. BSN vs ADN

    LilMSSunshine replied to lkk0718's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've read on this forum that the pay isn't that much different. Most nursing graduated from an ADN program. It only starts to matter if you want to do something other than bedside

  14. Are private schools really easier to get into?

  15. I have a B.S. degree, what would it take to become a CRNA?

    LilMSSunshine replied to NYMOM83's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  16. Low GPA

    LilMSSunshine replied to laurenbeth's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Stay positive. Since your GPA is low, then you should do other things to make sure you stand out. Do you volunteer? If so that looks good. Are you a CNA? If not I would tried to become certified...

  18. The Reading Comprehension on the TEAS test

    LilMSSunshine replied to emrebeth3's topic in General Nursing

  19. Low GPA

    LilMSSunshine replied to Lauren311's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    LilMSSunshine replied to •M♥J•'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    LilMSSunshine replied to TrinaCNA's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  24. CNA before RN - Necessary?
