    Southern Magnolia replied to snoopy29's topic in General Nursing

    Bag balm is used by cyclists to prevent chafing from bike shorts. I also used it on my babies to prevent diaper rash when they had

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

    Learning style and personality are individual things. I think they just want to see how you're wired. I don't think they are going to look at your learning style and say, "oh, you can't do the...

  3. is Nursing School HARDER than Medical School?

    Southern Magnolia replied to sunny d's topic in General Students

    I agree the premed prerecs are way harder than the prenursing ones. If organic chem were required for BSN I think there'd be a lot less nursing students and a lot less

  4. May 2011 NAU accelerated nursing program hopefuls!

    Southern Magnolia replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Study guide sample test. I bought the one recommened by NAU written by the test publisher. I should have called it a practice test not a pretest.

  5. Carondelet

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

    Krenrs . . . let me know when you hear something. I imagine it won't be until after the New Year since the posting said it might take up to 2 weeks. It'd be cool if we both got it. What are you...

  6. Carondelet

    Southern Magnolia posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    I need to vent. I am a prenursing student. I plan to apply to NAU's BSN program for the fall term. I have CNA certification from Iowa (I didn't work as a CNA - just got certified when we moved to...

    Southern Magnolia replied to toppermost's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'd put it in a cover letter. Introduce yourself and spell out your goals for the

  8. May 2011 NAU accelerated nursing program hopefuls!

    Southern Magnolia replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I don't know about what scores they look at for sure but I'm sure the scienes and math are crucial. My feeling is the other sections confirm that you're a half-way intelligent person that can hack...

  9. May 2011 NAU accelerated nursing program hopefuls!

    Southern Magnolia replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Run -Oh man that stinks. I hope you've recovered. Good

  10. Do I want to be a nurse for the wrong reasons?

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

    I have a bit of your situation in that I love the workings of the body and knowing how things work. Whenever my children are prescribed meds I always look up just how they work on the bacteria and I...

  11. How hard is chemistry as compared to anatomy class?

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

    In the grand scheme of things I found chem harder. However, I studied way more for A&P and micro than I did for chem. It depends on how you're wired. If math is intuitive for you then you're...

  12. Working during nursing school

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

    Thanks guys. UMC is the hospital that's asking for the 1 yr. I applied to carondelet too so we'll see. The listing for UMC says they will not work with school or other schedules but I'm sure it all...

  13. Moral/Ethical Advice

    Southern Magnolia replied to chinacatSN's topic in General Students

    I would discuss with the person and give her the chance to do the right thing before approaching the school. Knowing that someone disproves may be enough for her to change her ways. She should tell...

  14. May 2011 NAU accelerated nursing program hopefuls!

    Southern Magnolia replied to RunMT's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'll be applying in March to the traditional program at the Tucson campus. I wanted to do the accelerated program because I already have a degree in English but they don't offer it in Tucson. I've...

  15. ADIOS ANESTHESIA

    Southern Magnolia replied to Spode's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I know it's hard but try to remember that things don't always go by our timing. I am applying to nursing school for the fall because I have finally let go of the idea that I have to have another...

  16. online Anatomy and Physiology

    Southern Magnolia replied to becks77's topic in General Students

    Wow I can't believe the number of people that just don't get how you can learn on line. I would not take A&P I online b/c you miss out on the benefit of actually seeing the structures and organs....

  17. tricks for entertaining kids?

    Southern Magnolia replied to cherrymaryRN's topic in Pediatric

    I'm not a nurse (yet) but I have two children (3&5). My advice is if mom and dad are around ask what the child likes when you first get in the room. One of my boys LOVES anything to do with...

  18. NAU- Tucson Traditional BSN (Fall 2011 Hopefuls)

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

    I meant 2011 . . . I'll be typing 2010 for the next six months in error - guess I'm getting a head

  19. Bio 202 via PCC

    Southern Magnolia replied to lilmac81's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I took Bio 201 inperson (actually hybrid) and then took 202 online only - both at Yavapai. 202 seems to be so much more physiology than anatomy that I think it is better for on-line. However, I...

    Southern Magnolia replied to mommy1017's topic in General Students

    Can you take a CLEP or some other test to show

  21. Has anyone found a 100% online Micro class with lab (4 credits)

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

    Univ. of Eastern Oregon. They have a survey of medical microbiology 4 hours - w/ lab. You buy a lab kit and do the labs and then take photos to send the prof. They don't charge out of state tuition...

  22. New entry-level Masters program at U of A!!

    Southern Magnolia replied to Cid13's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I should have specified. MANY people can not get financial aid for 2nd BA degrees because there is a lifetime max for undergrad financial aid. You can almost always get loans but the federal...

  23. Question about Nutrition class for NAU program

    Southern Magnolia replied to ChrissyLove123's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Thanks for posting that follow up info. I just took FSN 154 at pima and then discovered it won't count for Pima or NAU (kicking myself repeatedly for that mistake). Eventhough, FSN 154 at pima and...

  24. New entry-level Masters program at U of A!!

    Southern Magnolia replied to Cid13's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm sure someone has said this already but this isn't a "new" program. It's their 2nd degree BSN program just now it costs 10K more and you get an MSN instead of BSN. Before you get excited, the MSN...

  25. Acclerated online BS to BSN programs

    Southern Magnolia replied to poohloveit's topic in Nursing Career

    I am in the same situation and plan to apply to UW for one of the 2011 cohorts . . . I have not found anything like it. There are other accelerated programs but the online component and one on one...
