  1. Charity SON Acceptance ??s

    BeeJayCeeYa replied to BeeJayCeeYa's topic in Louisiana Nursing

    First things first: absolutely get your hopes high! And then make up your mind that you will be disappointed twice for every time you succeed -- it will make the frustrations you are getting ready...

  2. Charity SON Acceptance ??s

    BeeJayCeeYa replied to BeeJayCeeYa's topic in Louisiana Nursing

    Oh, and I also wanted to mention that it is a lot more common than you might think for people with a degree to go back to school for nursing. We are called "2nd degree students". It happens so much...

  3. Charity SON Acceptance ??s

    BeeJayCeeYa replied to BeeJayCeeYa's topic in Louisiana Nursing

    Good for you! You are only too old when they close the lid on the coffin. I am 20 years older than you and I start nursing school in August. (I took a lot of my prerequisites at Delgado's Westbank...

  4. Charity SON Acceptance ??s

    BeeJayCeeYa replied to BeeJayCeeYa's topic in Louisiana Nursing

    If you have not already done so, I suggest going to Charity's website and looking at their "Applicant Review Form" so you can see how the evaluation is broken down. You might be better off than you...

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

    At Charity SON in New Orleans, the min.is 70 and you are allowed to take it 2x. The avg score for the program was less than 68 when I took it in

  6. Gay Nurses... help!

    BeeJayCeeYa replied to quakerkid's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Weeeeeellllllll, I really CAN argue otherwise. It's my contrary nature! Of course I am mostly referring to the European roots of the institution of marriage as those roots are most familiar but it...

  7. Gay Nurses... help!

    BeeJayCeeYa replied to quakerkid's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I don't think that it is merely a matter of labels. It is a complex issue (as are most, when you get right down to it) and it is my opinion that it is more than a matter of who is sleeping with whom...

  8. Gay Nurses... help!

    BeeJayCeeYa replied to quakerkid's topic in Male Nursing Students

    So if someone is gay but abstains from sex, then that person is no longer gay? You've obviously thought about this and I respectfully don't want to seem dismissive but I find your perception of what...

  9. LSUHSC CARE Program Information

    BeeJayCeeYa replied to altbsn2010's topic in Louisiana Nursing

    Small thread hijack here but it is relevant to this program: I was looking over a previous class anatomy syllabus (HS2412) and saw a reference to the use of "clickers". Whah-huh? Um, what is a...

  10. How old is too old?!?!?

    BeeJayCeeYa replied to Amy Married to Art's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hmm, how old IS too old? :thnkg: 48 -- definitely 48. And I'll be 49 when I start nursing school in August! :omy: Go for it anyway! I listened to a lecture recently where the oldest student in the...

  11. LSUHSC CARE Program Information

    BeeJayCeeYa replied to altbsn2010's topic in Louisiana Nursing

    This thread has been focused (mostly) on the CARE program which is an accelerated program at LSUHSC for those who already have a degree but want a BSN. Forgive me for making an assumption based on...

    BeeJayCeeYa replied to cpkRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've been accepted into the LSU-HSC 2nd degree program for the Fall! It just doesn't feel real. I want to get started already before they call back and say they were "jus'

  14. How do you put a nurse like this in her place?

    BeeJayCeeYa replied to DoubleblessedRN's topic in General Nursing

    How about telling her that, while you appreciate her efforts to help, her unsolicited critiques are making you uncomfortable. And say it with a smile. Why make an enemy when you could be building a...

    BeeJayCeeYa replied to kjwarren's topic in General Students

  17. Loyola RN-BSN

    BeeJayCeeYa replied to MsCrescentCity's topic in Louisiana Nursing

    I know someone who is doing the program right now through the online curriculum. His opinion is that the instructors have been somewhat... how can I put this properly?... detached and remote, even...

  18. retaking classes and other concerns

    BeeJayCeeYa replied to latricia99's topic in General Nursing

    Many colleges (mine included) won't accept A&P that is older than 5 years. Anyone's opinion on here is going to be just that - an opinion. Only you and the advisor you spoke with know your GPA,...

  19. Online Nutrition class please!!

    BeeJayCeeYa replied to csweetooth's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took it online at Delgado Community College (www.dcc.edu) in New Orleans. The exams were in-class so you would have to arrange a proctor, if the instructor agrees. Thorough instructor, lots of...

  20. LSUHSC CARE Program Information

    BeeJayCeeYa replied to altbsn2010's topic in Louisiana Nursing

    I understand and don't blame you. I wonder if there is an LSUHSC student directory? I'll have to go look for that later. For now, it's back to studying A&P2 for my final on Friday. Which I no...

  25. Quick interview question... Please give your opinion..

    BeeJayCeeYa replied to thumper360's topic in Male Nursing Students

    JMO, but ANYTHING which would give them an excuse to reject you that can so easily be eliminated and regrown is a no-brainer! When things are as competitive as slots in a nursing program and the...
