  2. Question about Nutrition class for NAU program

    Southern Magnolia replied to ChrissyLove123's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Thanks ab- I actually took it at Pima and won't need to do it at Rio after all. I was concerned it wouldn't transfer but it

  3. Anyone get accepted into a nursing program while being an out of district resident?

    Southern Magnolia replied to RscodADN10's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You might want to specify where you are located. Are you outside the U.S.? Not really an issue being out of state except for paying higher

  4. Online A&P II and Microbiology???

    Southern Magnolia replied to JodiLynn87's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took both of those courses online. I did miss not doing the hands on lab for A&P II but since it was way more physiology than anatomy I probably didn't miss that much. The micro I did was with...

    Update in case someone stumbles on this thread later. At least for fall 2011 ap to NAU trad. The Pima FSN 154 DOES meet the prerequisite for nutrition eventhough the course guide doesn't show it...

  6. This is why you should be careful what you post on facebook

    Southern Magnolia replied to semester1kid's topic in General Students

    Why in the world would you do such a thing in the first place? Much less post it on face book. Common sense and civility are lacking in too many these

    Southern Magnolia replied to AmberLB's topic in General Students

    Southern Magnolia replied to Southern Magnolia's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Thank you all for the replies. I think I'm going to hold off and do the hc spanish in the summer because I ended up not needing anything else this semester. I'm just foucsing on my Hesi and getting...

  10. May 2011 NAU accelerated nursing program hopefuls!

    Southern Magnolia replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Run, thanks for that info. It makes me feel a little better. Ab, I felt the same way about the science when I reviewed the Elsevier guide. I set the curve in A&P and I missed a lot on the...

  11. May 2011 NAU accelerated nursing program hopefuls!

    Southern Magnolia replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Nope. I'm doing the traditional program because I'm in Tucson. I don't have to take the HESI until Feb. Deadline for us in March 15th. I've pulled out all my old A&P notes though and I've been...

  12. Best path to becoming a FNP

    Southern Magnolia replied to Fourfecta's topic in General Nursing

    For what it is worth here is my experience . . . I have a BA in English and a work background in sales. At the age of 30, I decided I wanted to pursue nursing. I had just given birth and had an...

  13. Pregnant and nursing school... full or part-time?

    Southern Magnolia replied to magn1jes's topic in General Students

    Personally, I'd do as much as I can before. I worked full time before I had my first child and it was very doable - provided you have an uncomplicated pregnancy. That way you have less classes to...

  14. Scared but Determined...

    Southern Magnolia replied to dreamer827's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I started prerecs 3 years ago when I was 30. I've been taking one or two classes at a time and will hopefully starting a BSN program in the fall. My only suggestion is to stay organized and on top of...

  15. May 2011 NAU accelerated nursing program hopefuls!

    Southern Magnolia replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Run, I know you can't give specifics but anything you can share about the HESI would be appreciated. What did you study? How did you prepare? Specifically for the sciences. Are you able to skip...

  17. How Many Hours Of Studing Required For A&P1?

    Southern Magnolia replied to Ayvasmom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Everyone studies differently but I spent probably 2 hours 5 days a week on A&P outside of class plus I attended open lab sessions for 2-3 hours once a week. I probably studied 6-8 hours before...

  18. Working during nursing school

    Southern Magnolia replied to Southern Magnolia's topic in Arizona Nursing

    LOL. You do NOT want me driving a school bus. I pop curbs in my minivan. I can only imagine what would happen if I was driving a

  19. Has anyone been put on probation for clinicals? I just did!!!

    Southern Magnolia replied to bella65's topic in General Students

    OK, so now I'm terrified of what awaits me in NS. In my CNA clinicals, if I wasn't 100% sure of something I didn't think twice about confirming with my instructor before I did it. And all I was...

  20. I Was Accepted!

    Southern Magnolia replied to DoingGodsWork's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  24. Question about Nutrition class for NAU program

    Southern Magnolia replied to ChrissyLove123's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Thanks. I'm going to the info session the 4th and hopefully I'll get out of taking it. Since all NAU (flag) students are required to take is NAU's most basic nutrition I don't see why Pima's basic...

  25. Advice to nursing students from a hiring manager

    Southern Magnolia replied to Linda328's topic in General Students

    In my area, this is non-existant now. In fact, people who did this option a few semesters ago with a "guaranteed" job at the end have been released from their contracts because the hospitals don't...
