  1. Working ahead...Suggestions?

    kayty2339 replied to guest042302019's topic in General Students

    It's been five years since I took A&P...others have told me not to worry about it and that I would still do fine in the program. I hope they are right because I definitely don't remember what I...

    kayty2339 replied to ajulian87's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Congrats to you too!! I feel exactly the same way you do! I'm so excited...but as time gets closer to the first day, I'm getting more and more nervous and having more and more doubts...but I have to...

  3. Stethoscope for new nursing student?

    kayty2339 replied to ajulian87's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Everyone I've talked to already in the program has recommended the littman II lightweight. I just bought mine and it was about $50...so far it seems really good. But I haven't had to use it yet. I...

  4. best sounding stethoscope?

    kayty2339 replied to k8lyns_mommy's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Also, I just bought the Littman Lightweight II and I think it's great so far. Other students who are already in the nursing program recommended this one to me. I just re-read your post...missed the...

  5. best sounding stethoscope?

    kayty2339 replied to k8lyns_mommy's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Have you made sure you are putting the stethascope on correctly? I know you probably are, but just in case I had to ask. I was trying to use a stethascope once and couldn't figure out why I couldn't...

  6. Anyone attending or planning on attending pjc:?

    kayty2339 replied to Mikey 0-0's topic in General Students

    I'm starting in Jan. at PJC, I have a friend who was like number 34 on the alternate list and she got a seat. I think you have a good chance at starting in the

  7. I actually suggested to a pre req nursing student to find another profession and fast

    kayty2339 replied to kangamangus's topic in General Students

    I don't know how anybody is taking the disaproval with the poem as if we don't believe that this is the case for many women. I know that this is the case for many women, that's why I don't like it. My...

  8. I actually suggested to a pre req nursing student to find another profession and fast

    kayty2339 replied to kangamangus's topic in General Students

    I can't understand where you are coming from. You say this poem is true for a lot of working and studying moms. If that's the case (which I know it is) then how in the world could you find this FUN?!...

  9. I actually suggested to a pre req nursing student to find another profession and fast

    kayty2339 replied to kangamangus's topic in General Students

    I agree! I hated that poem too! I currently work full time and the conditions of that household are pretty much like mine are now being we are always going so much. So not much will change when school...

  10. I actually suggested to a pre req nursing student to find another profession and fast

    kayty2339 replied to kangamangus's topic in General Students

    I don't think anybody has a problem with you venting. What I have a problem with is that you told a pre-nursing student who was looking for helpful advice on what to study not to go into nursing at...

  11. I actually suggested to a pre req nursing student to find another profession and fast

    kayty2339 replied to kangamangus's topic in General Students

    I just don't agree with telling somebody not to go into it at all. I am one of those excited pre-nursing students (start in Jan) and I've been told all the realities of the program. I know how tough...

  12. Got my acceptance letter!!! Pensacola Junior College

    kayty2339 replied to kayty2339's topic in General Students

    Don't worry! You can wait a year...it will be worth it! Everything happens for a reason and this may just not be the best time for you to start. I know how you feel because I've been going through...

    kayty2339 replied to Honeybee737's topic in Alabama Nursing

    I bet they have more applicants this time around. It seems like everybody is flooding to nursing these days. Even PJC is already full for next fall and filling up for spring 2011...it's

    kayty2339 replied to Honeybee737's topic in Alabama Nursing

    I'm so sorry everyone! I wish I could trade places with any of you. I did apply to JDCC and got an acceptance letter, but I won't be going there. I would give it to any of you in a second if I could!...

    kayty2339 replied to Honeybee737's topic in Alabama Nursing

    ss303, I don't think there are any schools that will accept you in for spring this late in the game. JDCC has specific application periods and I believe the one for fall would be this spring sometime...

  16. STOP - Don't buy your textbooks from the school bookstore

    kayty2339 replied to DolceVita's topic in General Students

    I normally buy used books when I can and save a lot of money. But I just went to my orientation for the program and they said we have to have the ebooks along with the text book and online codes,...

  17. Close to quitting...need advice!

    kayty2339 replied to StudentNurzNK's topic in General Students

    How do you know that you won't graduate unless you stick it out and try. I am about to start the program in January and believe me, I am so scared and intimidated and wonder if I'm cut out for it. But...

  18. Haven't even started the program, but already terrified of flunking out

    kayty2339 posted a topic in General Students

    I just can't shake this fear that I am having. I am set to start the nursing program in January. I am so scared that I won't be cut out for this. I know the school is really hard. I'm constantly...

  19. Haven't even started the program, but already terrified of flunking out

    kayty2339 replied to kayty2339's topic in General Students

    Thanks everyone for your encouragement! I know I'm just probably worrying way too much. I just got done with my orientation today and they were very honest about how hard it is, but it was also really...

  20. Any of you nurses have a firefighter spouse? How do you work your schedules?

    kayty2339 posted a topic in General Nursing

    I'm still in the process of trying to get into a nursing program and I was thinking about the normal nurses schedule, which seems to be about 3 12 hr shifts a week. My husband is a firefighter and he...

  21. Pensacola Junior College

    kayty2339 posted a topic in General Students

    Is anybody here attending this school? If so, how is the program? I'm attending PJC right now doing my pre-reqs and I'm hoping to get in the program by next spring. What is the class schedule like? Do...

  22. Pensacola Junior College

    kayty2339 replied to kayty2339's topic in General Students

    I think you should try to get as many out of the way as possible. I've heard from many that it's extremely demanding just with the nursing classes much less having to worry about taking the other...

  23. Text Messaging During Lecture

    kayty2339 replied to SRK77's topic in General Students

    I think people in general have gotten very rude about the whole texting/talking on the phone issue. I work at a bank and have had many people come in and sit at my desk who can't put down their phone....

    kayty2339 replied to Mikey 0-0's topic in General Students

    You only have to have some prereqs done to be considered. College Algebra, A&P1, English 1, and Human Growth and Development...Everything else that is required can be taken while you are in the...

    kayty2339 replied to Mikey 0-0's topic in General Students

    Thanks Laylani, but unfortunately I don't have any other choice but to go to PJC. I wanted to go to JDCC, but they don't offer federal student loans. Also, I have two young children that I have to get...
