  1. How to find a NICU in a different state

    none the wiser replied to none the wiser's topic in NICU, Neonatal

    ...that would have made too much sense Haha. I tried that just after I posted this thread actually. It did come up with some hospitals, but not many. Before today, I've been using the google maps...

  2. Do nurses still time tape the bag when hanging fluids?

    none the wiser replied to Selene006's topic in General Nursing

    I think we watched a video that mentioned it once, and we never really discussed it in class, and we never used that method in

  3. A question to new grads...how satisfied are you with your new salary ?

    none the wiser replied to Back2Nursing09's topic in General Nursing

    Pretty much the entirety of SC starts you off at 18.25-18.75/hr. BSN is about 50 cents more. I was unaware that was the bottom of the spectrum until this thread

  4. Who do I talk to again?

    none the wiser posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    I am graduating in December. Already, I'm petrified I won't be able to find a job. I have a bachelor's degree in biology (3.3gpa) and I have a 3.75gpa in nursing school. My instructor told me to put...

    UPDATE: 210: Adjunct, adjunct, adjunct! Ms Carson is also fabulous :) 162: Either one is all right, but Ms Glenn is easier. Easy peasy class. This semester will help you remember you're not the total...

    i got in on merit. i had a biology degree and nearly all the non-clinical courses, so i was fairly sure i was getting in. i think it's just a matter of waiting tbh...i don't think many people...

    I'm glad! I had friends who had to retake everything. I personally barely squeaked by on a couple I believe there were two orientations, but honestly it was (feels like) a long time ago. There was...

    none the wiser replied to blackberry4eva's topic in General Nursing

    If the science courses are more than 5 years old from when you start clinical, then you have to retake. I got accepted around January 2009, maybe late 2008. My start date was August 2010. I applied...

    none the wiser replied to blackberry4eva's topic in General Nursing

    It's all math. I went into the exam with like a 107 lol but if you have trouble with math, this might be a bit hard. I haven't heard about it at all actually. As of this past semester (spring) we...

    I don't know about taking Micro with 101. I had all my prerequisites done when I started clinicals. It depends on the person, but I think that'd be a good time to take it. 101 really isn't very...

    none the wiser replied to blackberry4eva's topic in General Nursing

    kidelicate, I didn't have to take a math. My AP calculus from high school (which was awhile ago) counted for it. MAT 122 is a higher number than MAT 120 and 110, so I imagine you'll be safe :) I just...

  13. No Medical Experience to Nurse

    none the wiser replied to mbrnstudent's topic in General Students

    I surely hope so. Most of my friends in 101 didn't have any clinical experience before that class...including me.

  14. It happened....

    none the wiser replied to CrunchyMama's topic in General Students

    I cried after my first clinical...and every day that weekend until class when I got to talk to my friends. lol. Nothing like a clinical buddy pep talk :) I feel like quitting a lot. Nursing school...

  15. What's a good reason to quit nursing school?

    none the wiser replied to none the wiser's topic in General Students

    Generally I do, just...it's hard to care when they aren't really...there anymore yknow? I don't feel like I'm helping anyone at all. I'm going to give it at least one more week, I think. I really...

  16. What's a good reason to quit nursing school?

    none the wiser replied to none the wiser's topic in General Students

    I've thought about different grad school options, such as genetic counselor (I have a biology degree). I've also thought about other lower stress medical positions, like an ultrasound tech or...

  17. Organic Chemistry???

    none the wiser replied to ChicagoICU_RN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think also it's what you have a mind for. For some reason, the concepts in inorganic were harder for me. I was the same way with calculus and precal...could not do trig to save my life, but I was an...

  18. Organic Chemistry???

    none the wiser replied to ChicagoICU_RN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I got your PM but I can't send messages yet :) Organic was tough but I had a good professor. First semester was the basics, second semester was using the basics. Like he'd give us a starting compound,...

    I graduated with a 3.3 GPA in

  20. how to get BSN when you have a BA

    none the wiser replied to renee47's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I had a BS in Biology and it would have taken me 2.5 years full time schooling to complete my BSN. I chose the Associate's degree...it will take me 1.5 years, 18 months, 5 semesters

  21. Microbiology, Anatomy, Physiology, anyone successfully complete these in one term?

    none the wiser replied to Ickles's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Definitely. Keeping up with the reading is a must. That makes studying for the test so much

  22. why is this happening?

    none the wiser replied to ciroshkaa's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Have you tried reading and taking notes on the book at the same time? If you do that, you sort of have to focus to complete your notes. It forces you to read carefully for details and absorb the...

  23. Microbiology, Anatomy, Physiology, anyone successfully complete these in one term?

    none the wiser replied to Ickles's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think you can do it. In college, I took some pretty incredible course loads (including 2 semesters of organic chemistry) and came out alive, with a 3.3 GPA no less. Anatomy involves an incredible...
