Hello all! Hope everything is well. I had some questions about my history/background that some of you could answer hopefully. I don't want to get too involved in nursing if this will prevent me from being a nurse. While serving in the United States...

Okay, will do. Thank you very much guys! :)

What was the best piece of advice you've received or gave to someone just starting out nursing school? I would have to say the best advice I have gotten is to stay organized. What one tip, suggestion, or advice did you find to be true in your nursi...

Thank you all for your input, I compiled them all and printed out a sheet which is on my wall as we speak. Thanks again!

I'm awaiting the start of my program doing the normal freaking out process one put's themselves through and I stumbled upon this thought; Do you ever forget things in your schooling and/or nursing career? I imagine no one has a steel trap for a brain...

Very cool, thanks for that.

You can always check out the National Guard too. It's a route I'm highly considering since I will have some hefty student loans myself. They'll pay (so they say) up to $50K of your student loans off. With things like the two wars, Somoa, Haiti, and o...

Great advice. I can't stand when other students put down your own personal study habits as if they are sub-par to theirs or the 'right' way.

My 49ers are coming back in a few seasons...you watch! I too was asking this question, thanks for posting.

Also a flight nurse hopeful, but here you can find a bunch of info on the matter; https://allnurses.com/flight-nursing-surface/

That's not true actually. I did research, and a lot of schools including UCLA, UCI, most Cal States, and others accept WCU's BSN grads for higher education. I myself was thinking of attending this school, and was worried about their status, and accre...

I also called local (around Orange County) hospitals that WCU-OC does clinicals, they said they loved WCU grads and hired a lot that've done clinicals at their hospitals. Good luck!

I got airlifted back in 2008 after a motorcycle accident (reason for enteting nursing). And it was around $15K - $20K. Lucky for me I still had TriCare from the Military which paid for everything. Hope this helps. That's all I remember!

Destiny; You know, I never even thought of that. Wow. Well thank you!

Hello all, I'm just trying to cover my butt before I make a decision. I'm planning to attend west coast university this November. So I want to find out if you, as an employer would hire a west coast university grad? Or does that even factor in? I'm n...

I don't meet their requirements. I was already planning on the high price tag, because I wanted to go to Loma Linda. I just wanted to know if employers respect the establishment. Thanks again.

Well hesitant in the fact that I don't know how employers view that school. I have done research on this site, but couldn't find anything about my question. I'll go look again however. Thanks for your input!

I had the same problem over the summer with anatomy. Towards the end of the class I had to make myself study. Just do it though, you'll feel better when you get that 4.0. I had to get an 81% or higher to keep my A on the last test. I figured if I did...

Anyone ever take Anatomy in the Summer? I'm not too concerned, but how jam-packed is the material? It's possible, right?

It is DEFINITLEY possible! I just found out I got an A in the class. If I can do it, a lot of people can. It was tough, but worth it.

What do you find harder; Nursing school, or Marine life? I haven't had the 'pleasure' of nursing school, but Marine life was tough at times(0331). I hear a lot of complaining from nursing students on here, and wanted to see which one is more challen...

Hello, http://www.rn.ca.gov/schools/rnprograms.shtml Ca Board of RN site should be helpful. I know of a junior college named Palomar is out there. Hope that helps!

PMA! Positive mental attitude! Don't doubt yourself, KNOW you can do it. I'm in a summer anatomy class right now, two more tests left and I'm getting an A in the class. I thought at first it's impossible to do this, but once you get rid of negative...

My anatomy teacher swears that students will need chemistry to do well in physiology. Is this true? Or, more importantly; is it all possible to do well without chemistry? I'm not afraid of chem, I'm just thinking of a time frame in which another scie...
