  1. USN launches A-BSN program to start Oct 2010

    mmt4 replied to mmt4's topic in Nevada Nursing

    OK thanks for the info. I got an email back asking me for more info and a time to set up a (telephone) appt. I haven't yet responded b/c I am trying to figure out when I could talk to someone on the...

  2. How much did you pay for books your first year?

    mmt4 replied to sch1109's topic in General Students

    Now that would be awesome b/c sometimes those bundles have their own ISBN. To be able to break it down would be

  3. One year down, one more to go...

    mmt4 replied to Rean87's topic in General Students

    Congratulations! I think that first year is such a huge hump to get over b/c its not just learning how to do things, but learning how to be confident in yourself and get over the self-consciousness...

  4. Pathophysiology Online

    mmt4 replied to shadet541's topic in General Students

    CSN (Nevada) offers it online but it is currently full and requires pre-reqs to be cleared to register (I know, I tried to register online without having yet submitted my transcripts for transfer...

  5. Is Med Surg hard?? New grad. starting soon- not looking forward to 12 hours!

    mmt4 replied to Epona's topic in Medical-Surgical

    I can't offer any practical real-world experience but I want to let you know I have issues with my bs if I don't eat properly (and sometimes when I do) and I have discovered recently that they are a...

  6. At what age did you decide on nursing?

    mmt4 replied to Wan2BRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Its been an on-again off-again thing for me since about age 21. I honestly stumbled upon it around age 21, after being interested in emergency medical care and then having someone tell me that nurses...

  7. Earning a B in Chemistry really has me in a funk!

    mmt4 replied to longbow.shelly's topic in General Students

    Chemistry is hard for many many people. I read a pre-pharmacy forum b/c I am also applying to a Pharm D program next year (Nursing is one of my alternates) and many of the pre-pharmers (and you know...

  8. SAHM's or other busy people - time management tips

    mmt4 replied to vintagemother's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have to admit when I read the mcdonalds idea I thought "no way in heck". I started thinking about it though in relation to the toddler (almost 3yrs) I have now, as opposed to how my older children...

  9. I have damn had it with nevada

    mmt4 replied to moneyline702's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Well that does suck. I took college pre-calc/college Algebra (same thing different school) twice, first for a D because I screwed around and did not put in the work, and second time for an A. But...

  10. I have damn had it with nevada

    mmt4 replied to moneyline702's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Wow, what is too many times? Honestly 10 yrs is so long ago the logical thing for them to do would be to give you one chance to re-take it as a current course and get an acceptable grade. I agree...

  11. TEAS at CSN

    mmt4 posted a topic in Nevada Nursing

    Hi I have what is probably a dumb question. If I take the TEAS at CSN, can I also have ATI send the score report to another school as well? I wouldn't need to do it right then, but later on in the...

  12. Does anybody else get this from family or friends.....

    mmt4 replied to vccorscc's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    For me it was not the gross stuff - before kids I was ok with it, at least with the thought - it was touching people. I actually dropped from the second term of an LPN program not because the work at...

  13. Dropping because you're scared

    mmt4 replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That would be me. Still not sure about going back. I have left a path towards nursing twice - once, with one pre-nursing semester left to go, was not because I was running from nursing but because I...

  14. TEAS at CSN

    mmt4 replied to mmt4's topic in Nevada Nursing

    That's what I thought. Just wanted to make sure. You can take it at a PearsonVue test center independent of any college, but the cost is $100. CSN charges less and I just wanted to make sure that...

  15. I survived A&P I&II!!

    mmt4 replied to QuarterLife88's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just finished retaking it this past fall/spring. The first time I took it I was just really excited - no one had psyched me out about difficulty - for that I am thankful b/c it was work but it was...

  16. Daytonite has passed away...

    mmt4 replied to Brian's topic in General Nursing

    I am so sorry to hear this. She was an amazing source of information and help to students and she will be sorely

  17. Any USN Grads out there?

    mmt4 replied to Vines812's topic in Nevada Nursing

    I wonder b/c they are accredited by the NLN and I thought you needed a good (not sure of the exact) pass rate - or maybe that is for the state board of nursing to approve you. Considering each block...

  18. NSC Fall 2010 Accelerated and Regular Programs

    mmt4 replied to Getgoing's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Congrats to all! I had forgotten there was a part-time track. Is it similar to the CSN PT track where you go evenings and clinical is on the weekend? I am going to go look at their website. The more...

  19. CSN, need some info please!!!!

    mmt4 replied to CA_5677's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Thanks!

  20. Applying to CSN RN program?

    mmt4 replied to stargurl2006's topic in Nevada Nursing

    From combing through the posts about it it seems that if you take EVERYTHING before applying and come close to maximizing points, you can get in without much worry. The rest of the time it appears to...

  21. CSN, need some info please!!!!

    mmt4 replied to CA_5677's topic in Nevada Nursing

    justme - I just bought a review book for the TEAS and was wondering where the practice test online is located? The book had a diagnostic test which was pretty helpful in pointing out my weak areas...

  22. Who is in a night program?

    mmt4 replied to sch1109's topic in General Students

    I have 4 kids and I may be applying to the part time program, which is evening and weekends, specifically for the reasons other parents have given: if your child is home sick, you probably won't...

  23. Rio Salado--biology recommendations for distance learning

    mmt4 replied to icesk8ermom's topic in General Students

    Hmm - I think I need to take it online somewhere so I can take Micro in the Spring. I will read back through the thread. So you have a lot of essays to write? I am moving to Las Vegas this summer...

  24. Rio Salado--biology recommendations for distance learning

    mmt4 replied to icesk8ermom's topic in General Students

    Yes - it is completely online. The required work is: one quiz per week, a test every couple of weeks covering an average of 2 chapters, and a lab each week which is about 6 pages to read that...

  25. Rio Salado--biology recommendations for distance learning

    mmt4 replied to icesk8ermom's topic in General Students

    Clovis Community College offers AP1 and 2 and I find the workload incredibly reasonable. I would not say its easy, but if you read the chapter, answer the review questions in the chapter, and read...
