  1. Samuel Merritt 2+2 BSN

    bluechick112 replied to CEIprestige's topic in California Nursing

    Thanks! It's terrible. I don't know whether to plan for financial aid or to plan for classes at my current community college. It's all very frustrating, stressful, and confusing. Thanks for the good...

  2. Samuel Merritt BSN program waiting list

    bluechick112 replied to newPsychNP's topic in California Nursing

    Thank you to all. Really. Kind words are all the help I could ask

  3. Samuel Merritt 2+2 BSN

    bluechick112 replied to CEIprestige's topic in California Nursing

    I'm trying really hard to start this fall! I was #11 on the waitlist and so far they've admitted 10 people off the list, thus making me #1. They e-mailed stating they'd notify me immediately should a...

  4. Samuel Merritt BSN program waiting list

    bluechick112 replied to newPsychNP's topic in California Nursing

    Sheesh! I still haven't heard anything from SMU. They e-mailed saying I'm still #1 on the waitlist and that they'll call immediately if a spot becomes available... She also said they're admitting...

  5. Sick of waiting to know? Say "I"!

    bluechick112 replied to nocheapones's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I read about your SAT mix up. That's very interesting. If you make a sound argument, I bet they'll let you in. Or maybe you'll find out they made a mistake and you were supposed to receive a letter...

  6. Sick of waiting to know? Say "I"!

    bluechick112 replied to nocheapones's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    goodluck to everyone!! i'm still sitting around on my school's waitlist (I'm #1). they sent letters saying that the 2009 fall class is full but that they anticipate SOME potential movement in the...

  7. What is the "hardest" course in nursing

    bluechick112 replied to k3104's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree that it varies by person. Also a big factor in this is the teachers. You could have the WORST teacher in the world for English and the BEST teacher for Physio and thus deem English the hardest...

  8. CNA transfers

    bluechick112 replied to chlopsych09's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi! I'm not sure where the Michigan license can transfer to, but I know it for sure cannot transfer to California. California doesn't take any license from any other state. You have to be re-tested...

  9. Took the Net today and NO SCORES!

    bluechick112 replied to Nervous1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Darlisha, I wish I wasn't just regurgitating what you've heard before, but REALLY...the math section is way easier than the reading. I know you'd naturally think that it would be opposite (I sure...

  10. Took the Net today and NO SCORES!

    bluechick112 replied to Nervous1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm glad to hear you did well. I'm also glad you see that the study guide was the exact same thing as the test (basically)! :) Hopefully I helped you in your studies and congratulations on getting it...

  11. Suggestions appreciated :)

    bluechick112 replied to bebopspider's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I second the EMT experience. That'll guarantee you some hospital work. However, it's not impossible to get a job in a hospital as a CNA. If you look around and catch them during their hiring period...

  12. Teas Test lets hear what you have to say

    bluechick112 replied to nursebree's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    EEEEEEEEEK the science was horribly difficult. The math was very, very easy. Just basic fractions, decimals, etc. But the science has questions spat out from all different corners of the field...

  13. Confused about schooling!

    bluechick112 replied to towersoverme's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi! Most nursing programs are 4 year programs. The exceptions are accelerated BSN programs (which you already need to have a BA or BS to be considered for) and master's programs and such. But since...

  14. Net test

    bluechick112 replied to Darlene Hopkins's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm going to PM you,

  15. Samuel Merritt BSN Fall 2009!

    bluechick112 replied to bluechick112's topic in California Nursing

    I might DIE from this wait. I still haven't been called by SMU! The only hope I have is that maybe the lady is on break or something! She e-mailed me last week saying I'm number 11 on the waitlist and...

  16. Please tell me if this schedule is too much

    bluechick112 replied to Tonyapate's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I also think it sounds like a very reasonable schedule. Most of my fellow classmates (and myself) juggle a lot more than this and we're all able to get good grades if we put our minds to it! :) I...

  17. Pre nursing

    bluechick112 replied to Tonyapate's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi! :) I'm not in a schedule like that anymore, but I sure used to be. Almost every semester I was in class two days a week for random hours each day. As for college English, I think it really...

  18. Laptop for school?!? Yes/No?

    bluechick112 replied to mrsb04's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I can honestly say I've only seen one or two people in my three years of prerequisite classes with laptops. If it's something that works for you, then that's great! But I really think it's a personal...

  19. Is being a CNA give you a better chance at getting into Nursing School??

    bluechick112 replied to tinediddy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It really depends on which nursing school you're applying to. Some give extra points for working as a CNA. Some give extra points to you for just having your CNA certificate. Some don't care at all!...

  20. Net test

    bluechick112 replied to Darlene Hopkins's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think the best way I could help anyone is if you send me math problems you're having trouble with. I don't solve math problems the "conventional way". Instead, I work through it logically and rule...

  21. Net test

    bluechick112 replied to Darlene Hopkins's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Aw! I'm glad to have helped! :) Let me know if you have any math questions and I can see if I can do what I did with Nervous1 and walk you through my

  22. What TEAS score does your school require?

    bluechick112 replied to %63theend's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The science portion is crazy. It has geology, chemistry, micro, and god knows what else. I think nearly everyone fails the science portion the first time around. It's practically sheer

  23. Pre-req ouch

    bluechick112 replied to labchic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    WHATTTTTTT?!!!!!!!!! I'm at a community college and my physio class cost me less than $200, even with the book. That's a ridiculous

  24. Scared to death

    bluechick112 replied to brittany_micah's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I didn't have any luck with flash cards and stuff either. I found the absolute best way for me to memorize everything was to make mneumonics for literally EVERYTHING. Bones, muscles, parts of the...

  25. I don't know if this should go here, but...question about pre-reqs and jobs.

    bluechick112 replied to nohika's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm pretty sure you won't get directly hired into the NICU. If you can find a volunteer position in a NICU at a local hospital, that would be a good start. Atleast then you could state that you've had...
