  1. ATTENTION MOMMIES!

    Southern Magnolia replied to mommy_5's topic in General Students

    I have a 4 year old and six year old. I'll only have class in person tues / thur so I don't have too much juggling to do. My plan for school day mornings is my hubby. He will get the 6 year old on...

  2. TB RESULT HELLPPPP!!!

    Southern Magnolia replied to Nato408's topic in General Nursing

    I tested positive and have no idea how or when or even if (? False positive) I was exposed. I just had to get an x- ray to verify no active TB

  3. titers/ immunizations update

    Southern Magnolia replied to RunnerRN2015's topic in General Nursing

    Could it have been a booster that she gave you and then did the titers to make sure you didn't need anymore - is the mmrv normally a

  4. What are you carrying all your books in?

    Southern Magnolia replied to bri2012's topic in General Students

    Just got my high sierra power glide yesterday- it's a large rolling backpack. LOVE IT. We'll see if I'm the only one with a rolling bag:p I don't really care if I am though. I want to be able to...

  5. Highlighting?

    Southern Magnolia replied to princsheather's topic in General Students

    I'm starting in the fall too but here's something that works for me in other classes. I use two colors one is for definitions and terms to know the other is for everything else. Then after I read...

  6. New grad nurse residencies in Tucson.

    Southern Magnolia replied to pitaya's topic in Arizona Nursing

    This is a little late but umc does have a new grad program but I think they post the positions in spring for a very short time and they fill

  7. New NS, What's your first "nursing shoe" gonna be?

    Southern Magnolia replied to BelleNscrubs04's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I ordered (and haven't received yet) a pair of genoa style shoes by klogs USA. The are similar in style to dansko's professional but they come in wide widths. My feet are wide and I have bunions so...

  8. Calling all pen aficionados...please report here

    Southern Magnolia replied to Poi Dog's topic in General Students

    Sharpie now has a skinny clicky pen too. I still like the way the others write better though. Seems like the clicky ones aren't quite the same. OP - pens (and most school supplies) make me happy...

  9. Online Science Courses

    Southern Magnolia replied to mona b RN's topic in Online Distance Learning

    All of mine did. A few were "hybrid" and several were completely online. I'm in AZ. I think it depends a lot on if the institution you're going to offers online classes. They are much more likely...

  10. NAU Spring 2012 Hopefuls

    Southern Magnolia replied to lilyblooming's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Yes, I will be in the cohort starting in EXACTLY one month :clpty: I'll check in from time to time (not as often as I do now I'm sure) so feel free to PM me if you have questions along the way....

  11. Students with kids...what do you do when they get sick??

    Southern Magnolia replied to Britmum's topic in General Students

    My husband will be my back up but he can get off easily and work from home if need be. Do you know any other moms from your child's school? Maybe one of the stay at home moms would

  12. NAU Spring 2012 Hopefuls

    Southern Magnolia replied to lilyblooming's topic in Arizona Nursing

    K- was that 150 applied in the spring for this coming fall? That sounds like the number I heard. Just curious. Best wishes. Hopefully you guys will be a semester behind

  13. Used Books? E-books?

    Southern Magnolia replied to mamayogibear's topic in General Students

    I won't start classes for another month so I can't say how this will all work out but here's what I did. The books list I received would have cost me around $900 at the bookstore new. I researched...

  14. ADN or BSN degree???

    Southern Magnolia replied to swoody's topic in General Students

    I don't really see you're decision being a money/ time issue - I see it as an ADN/ BSN issue. Will you eventually want/ need to get a BSN if you go for the ADN now? In the long run that will be what...

  15. Accelerated BSN Program help

    Southern Magnolia replied to lotsofsunshine's topic in General Students

    I'll give my two cents regarding accelerated programs - feel free to keep scrolling. I am NOT in your part of the country so region may impact the line of thinking a bit. I am a 2nd degree student....

  16. Fall 2011, what's your schedule?

    Southern Magnolia replied to BelleNscrubs04's topic in General Students

    We have the same classes for my 1st semester of my BSN program except I will also have Gerontology. I'll have Tues am Fundamentals lecture, Tues pm Health Assessment Lab, Thur Fundamentals clinical....

  17. photographic memory real??

    Southern Magnolia replied to kitty222's topic in General Nursing

    I kind of do this too but I don't really think I have a photographic memory. I can't "see" the page word for word but I remember where in the text, how the page was laid out, pictures that were inset...

  18. photographic memory real??

    Southern Magnolia replied to kitty222's topic in General Nursing

    I *think* (just my interpretation from the limited info you gave) that she was being flip and didn't want to discuss with you her study habits. Many people have documented photographic memories but...

  19. Clinicals in nursing homes?

    Southern Magnolia replied to ExodusPaige66's topic in General Students

    This is common practice even with BSN programs - for first semester of clinicals to be in LTC facilities. You'll be learning basics so there's no need to have a more complex medical

  20. Will you still have pre/co-requisites to take while in NS?

    Southern Magnolia replied to Copperismydog's topic in General Students

    I'm surprised how few some have to take. I'm wondering if there is a variation between BSN and ASN/ ADN programs. I'll be in a BSN

  21. Pathophysiology ??s

    Southern Magnolia replied to szeles23's topic in General Students

    I took Pathophys in 8 weeks. I did really well but I'm not 100% sure I retained all of it. I just bought "pathophysiology made incredibly easy" at the suggestion of others on here. I haven't really...

  22. Will you still have pre/co-requisites to take while in NS?

    Southern Magnolia replied to Copperismydog's topic in General Students

    I'll only be taking nursing core courses. My first semester will be 13 hrs - most people in my program will be taking 16 hrs the first semester but I took pathophysiology at another school and...

  23. Will you still have pre/co-requisites to take while in NS?

    Southern Magnolia replied to Copperismydog's topic in General Students

    Nada! I have all pre and co requisites complete and my previous BA covers the jr. level writing and diversity

  24. Opinions on Class Schedule

    Southern Magnolia replied to my4helpers's topic in General Students

    You lost me with taking micro during NS - had to have it as a prerequisite to even be handed an application to the program. Why the lab by itself? Did you already take the lecture portion? I only...

  25. When did you start clinicals?

    Southern Magnolia replied to Annachu512's topic in General Students

    Sounds like your program is not typical. Around here you do all your prerequisites THEN apply to the nursing program. If you get in you then do the core nursing courses. You might be better off...
