  1. Delete FB?

    ClassyChristina replied to procrastinator911's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I think if you just make everything private(You should probably do this anyway!) you should be fine. :) Just make sure your profile picture is classy.

  2. What was your GPA? Did you get accepted/rejected?

    ClassyChristina posted a topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I recently graduate from an ASN program and passed my Nclex! Yay! I am now immediately getting enrolled in a RN-BSN program. Currently my GPA is around a 3.1 but I am definitely going to try to be the...

  3. Pearsonvue Trick - Does it Work Every Time? Part 3

    ClassyChristina replied to Silverdragon102's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Worked for me! This post encouraged me about it!

  4. Passed NCLEX-RN with 265 Questions?

    ClassyChristina replied to ClassyChristina's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I did the quick results yesterday(it works on weekends!) and I PASSED!!!! Thank God! The good pop-up did seem accurate for me...although I could barely believe it after 265

  5. Passed NCLEX-RN with 265 Questions?

    ClassyChristina replied to ClassyChristina's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    It says "Delivery Successful" on the main page of your pearsonvue page when you log in. It will show that you took the NCLEX-RN and then it has a space for status where it says, "Delivery...

  6. College of Saint Mary

    ClassyChristina replied to bunnyfungo's topic in General Nursing

    It should be easier to get into because it is a private school. If you are worried about finances though I would try to go with a public school first. At least apply to places like Metro, Iowa...

  7. Why does anyone go into nursing?

    ClassyChristina replied to guineapiglover2011's topic in General Students

    1) I am really energetic and get bored easily. I thrive when meeting new people all the time. I can change the direction of my career endlessly. 2)When half my class has already failed/been kicked...

  8. Community College? You must be stupid.

    ClassyChristina replied to TheMoonisMyLantern's topic in General Students

    Going through a Community College RN ADN program and a RN to BSN program is costing me roughly $15,000. That is about $65,000 less than the BSN programs in my area. Sounds smart to me!

  9. Metropolitan Community College...do you absolutely have to have a 4.0 GPA?

    ClassyChristina replied to Skips's topic in General Nursing

    I hate to burst the metro bubble... but I personally know a LPN who got straight A's in the ADN program and has now failed the NCLEX-RN three times. Just because it is hard to get into doesn't mean it...

  10. Do you have a day off/free time?

    ClassyChristina replied to miyhaka's topic in General Students

    Depends on your program. I know in the ASN program I am in I barely have time to breath! I have Sat and Sun off, but usually have papers to write, projects, videos, and assignments to do. I have...

  11. How to study!

    ClassyChristina replied to kd2010's topic in General Students

    With a 97 average I don't think you have anything to worry about. Unless your school doesn't use nclex style tests. I was a B or C student in the LPN program(at the school with the best passing rate...

  12. Nursing school and weight gain?

    ClassyChristina replied to waterlily's topic in General Students

    You have to have your priorities straight. 5-6 hours at the gym per week might not be a good idea if it is taking away from your study and homework time. If you are on the verge of failing, or having...

  13. What to do the summer in btw BSN and FNP

    ClassyChristina replied to JOJOba's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    You could work at a camp! They always need nurses for the summer. Get a little sunshine and some prediatric experience.

  14. Second year of nursing school harder/easier

    ClassyChristina replied to Waiting222's topic in General Students

    At my school the first year is hardest. The first five weeks are like hell. We had to pass a med calculation test, get tested on skills, write a 20 page paper, and pass the weekly fundamentals tests...

  15. Students are cut-throat!

    ClassyChristina replied to livenlearn08's topic in General Students

    This seems kind of typical for nursing school. I know my school is really competitive because the people with the best grades will go on to the ASN...and there are not many spots. Also, we know each...

  16. first day of summer break...and it sucks!!!!!!!!!!!

    ClassyChristina replied to sophie<3's topic in General Students

    I think EVERYONE is feeling the stress of finals right now... I am sitting at an 84%. 87% is a B. and 77% is failing. Depending on my final on Monday, it could go either way!(Hopefully up!) All you...

  17. Any tips for boosting self-confidence?

    ClassyChristina replied to NancyPie's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Make a list of all your competencies. Brush up on them. Be ASSERTIVE! Jump at the chance for learning experiences. If you are nervous ask the instructor or one of the nurses to come with you. Let...

  18. Just got accepted to LPN School! What can I do to prepare?

    ClassyChristina replied to catmscott's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Get sleep! It will be a memory after you start!

  19. Has anyone taken Nutrition at Metro?

    ClassyChristina replied to lizl123's topic in General Nursing

    Online was extremely easy. I took it last year. Not that time consuming and an easy

  20. How much is school costing you?

    ClassyChristina replied to tbell2's topic in General Students

    In Omaha, Nebraska $8,000 for a two year associates program. Add another $2,000 for books. About $10,000...not

  21. Gain or Lose Weight?

    ClassyChristina replied to gams77's topic in General Students

    This past semester with three nursing classes and chemistry I lost weight. I also was sick for a month...and had about the most stressful relationship problems I have ever had! Haha...I do not want to...

  22. What do you think is the best type of loan for nursing school

    ClassyChristina replied to RNS5's topic in General Students

    I have a stafford loan, it is probably the best. Unfortunately, I don't qualify for FAFSA

  23. What was your GPA & PRE-ENTRANCE EXAM SCORE and did you get accepted ?

    ClassyChristina replied to xiongstar_31's topic in General Students

    GPA: 3.65 Net Score: 87 I applied to a bsn and asn program. Got into both. I can't wait to start the bsn program in August!

  24. Which is harder - A&P I or A&P II?

    ClassyChristina replied to Lovelymo79's topic in General Students

    A&P 2 was MUCH harder for me. Memorizing the blood vessels and finding them on fetal pigs is harder than it sounds. Also, in A&P 2 we went through the endocrine system...which can be a little...

  25. Iowa Western Community College vs. Metro Community College

    ClassyChristina replied to CNAcollegestudent's topic in General Nursing

    YESI05 -I applying for fall to Iowa Western, and if there are no more openings I will apply for the spring. Maybe I will see you there! Good luck on a & p 2, you are brave! I could never do A...
