  1. GPA Question

    Mom/Nurse2b posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have a question about my overall GPA. It is 3.869. Is this considered an 'A' or a 'B'? Is a 4.0 the only 'A'? Do you know if schools round up-like to 3.9-or is it taken as a

  2. GPA Question

    Mom/Nurse2b replied to Mom/Nurse2b's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for the replies! I'm not sure how I thought the grading scale worked,but it makes much more sense now. I'm going to post another question about a scholarship which is why I was asking about...

  3. Should I become a nurse...?

    Mom/Nurse2b replied to Rizabella's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have a very weak stomach-borderline IBS, but have always wanted to be a nurse. I really had to weigh my options and I've decided that I will have to weather my stomach aches because I want to be in...

  4. TEAS how long on average to study.

    Mom/Nurse2b replied to NorCalKid's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I gave myself two weeks to study like a madwoman! :) I also took the practice tests in the study guide like 10 times each. The actual test was easier than the practice tests,

  5. Who's still waiting?

    Mom/Nurse2b replied to ksm84's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm still waiting too. We're supposed to get letters "sometime in April" so that could mean days or weeks for me. I applied to two programs-the RN one and an LVN one for backup. They won't mail...

  6. Semester is than half over- How is everyone doing?

  8. Is it true that nursing career is on the decline?

    Mom/Nurse2b replied to cps.5784's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It is also true that we are in a recession and jobs are scarce for EVERYONE. Nurses and Nursing students were under the false impression that their industry was safe from layoffs and cutbacks, but...

  9. Commute to nursing school?

    Mom/Nurse2b replied to bd22's topic in General Students

    The school I've applied to has two campuses. The first year of NS, you go to campus #1 which is an hour away from me, the second year, you go to campus #2 which is 15 minutes from my house. It...

  10. Reality Check for Nursing Hopefuls

    Mom/Nurse2b replied to DedHedRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I still would like to know what the OP would suggest people do instead of NS. The economy sucks, the job market is in the toilet for EVERYONE, so according to her logic, we need to tell all the...

  14. What are you doing while you wait for acceptance letters???

    Mom/Nurse2b replied to Belli 40 LVN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Not as hard as I thought it would be. I put off Statistics and Tech. Writing until I absolutely had to take them, so I was dreading this class. It's really not too bad-and I'm taking it online. I...

  15. What are you doing while you wait for acceptance letters???

    Mom/Nurse2b replied to Belli 40 LVN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've been focusing on finishing these last 4 classes that I'm taking this semester. They are all pre-req's for the bridge to a BSN once I've got the ASN. I'm taking Sociology, Art 1, Spanish 1 and...

  16. They're Their and There

    Mom/Nurse2b replied to PaperPencil's topic in General Students

    That's true, but I find myself questioning their professionalism when I get emails from teachers, colleagues, etc that misspell words or don't use proper

  17. Reality Check for Nursing Hopefuls

    Mom/Nurse2b replied to DedHedRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I hate to harp on the California thing again, but it could be that their preference for BSN's is a regional thing. My sister moved to Southern California last year and figured she would apply at her...

    I also see that you're in California Isis, which is unfortunately, one of the worse parts of the country as far as jobs go right now. I'm in N. Texas and I've heard from other new grads that it's...

  20. Reality Check for Nursing Hopefuls

    Mom/Nurse2b replied to DedHedRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  21. The Wait is Killing Me!

    Mom/Nurse2b replied to princsheather's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
