  1. working at same hospital as my mom!!!!!

    I'm just starting nursing school this fall and working with my mom is one of the things I'm looking forward to after graduation So I just think it depends on the type of relationship you have with...
  2. Coming back to school

    Well first off just let me say that you are not too old . At least where I go to school and the classes I've taken... the age probably ranges from 18 to 40's so don't let age hold you back. And if...

    I do billing for a lawyer about 5 minutes from house. I have a key to the office so I can come as go as I please and since I make $15 an hour I'm fortunately that I can work 12 hours a week and...

  5. A pre-req of a pre-req of a pre-req

    It took me 2.5 years to finish all my general education courses and prereqs and I will be starting the nursing program this fall. So two years isn't so bad. I know it feels long but the wait makes you...
  6. When you were in nursing school did you work at all. I've been hearing it alot that it is impossible to work while in nursing school. I don't know if they're just trying to scare me. I'm very...
  7. What makes more sense...?

    Well one thing you may want to consider is where the clinicals are for the school that's an hour away. I knew someone that had to drive an hour from her school to the clinical sites and if you already...
  8. Seeking advice if nursing is the right path!

    I don't know if my input will matter much. I am only 21 and I will be going into the nursing program this fall. I agree with domal02 -- "If it's a passion/dream or yours then heck yeah go for it. If...
  9. It all depends on many classes you take a semester. Usually it takes 2 to 3 years to finish your GE and your nursing prereqs. It took me 2.5. As for the BSN program... some schools offer a 3 year...
  10. I'm in the same situation asking everyone if they worked while in nursing school. I'll be starting the BSN program this fall and have heard that it is impossible to work while in nursing school but...
  11. Yes to go with what Maggie24 said. You can take pharmacology and pathophysiology at goldenwest college which is the only college I could find where those classes were listed as biology class and not...
  12. Thanks to everyone. I really appreciate your feedback and I look forward to reading more. A lot of you gave me confidence that this will all work out. And thanks to nkara. Life calling indeed. There...
  13. to all csulb nursing student!!!

    Yes capstones would be good. I just noticed that there were "Special" General Education Requirements at Cal State Long Beach by the end of this last semester and was slight confused on what to take...
  14. to all csulb nursing student!!!

    This is to Maggie24. Just curious if you were in the nursing program at cal state long beach or not. I've been trying to find someone to give advise since my first semester will start in Fall2009. I...
  15. I would say taking an organic chemistry class would help. Of course you have to take regular chemistry before you can take organic but I found it really helpful. You can pass Anatomy and Physiology...
  16. TEAS, what to expect?

    I took the TEAS test. I didn't study for it and I got a 90%. It's a standardized test so I felt you either knew it or you didn't. Theres only 30 questions on science which cover Chemistry, Geology,...
  17. This is definately something you are going to have to think over. For Microbiology I probably studies 9 - 10 hours a week and I passed with a 95%. Physiology I probably studies half that much to get a...
  18. I took chem and anatomy one semester and micro, physiology, and statistics the following semester. It was challenging but definately not impossible. I didn't really have a social life all semester but...
  19. What should i do about college and how does it work?

    Yes it's definately up to you on what route you take. You can certainly start off at a Cal State and then transfer to a community college. Transferring is transferring. Usually the deciding factor for...
  20. Cal State Long Beach & Emory University

    For Cal State Long Beach which is where I'm attending this fall they have a 10 point system. 2 points for your Core Class GPA (Composition, Critical Thinking, Speech, and Math) 4 points for your...
  21. It's definitely a good idea to start off at a community college to get your General Education courses out of the way (which are listed in the class schedule at every school). Much cheaper. Tuition...
  22. What should i do about college and how does it work?

    I just kind of skimmed through everyone's postings so my apologies if my posting is redundant Community College: $20/unit (12 units is considered full time) + the health fee (avg. $15). A single...
  23. LLU or CSULB

    That's great. As far as the website goes for the nursing program at Cal State Long Beach, its the greatest. They give you a list of prereqs you need, estimated cost for the program, sample course...

  25. LLU or CSULB

    Your chances of getting into the nursing program are really good. You have about the same GPAs and TEAS test score as I did and I got admitted into the Fall2009 program. Here is a link on the...
