  1. What kinds of patients do you see?

    Good point, thanks so much! I like the idea of working in a peds office, the hours would be so much more compatible with my kids schedules. Working 12's (which we all know are really 13's) plus an...
  2. What kinds of patients do you see?

    I've followed your posts quite a bit. If I end up working in the hospital I am really interested in ER and ICU. I keep seeing your posts every time I look up those things on this site
  3. What kinds of patients do you see?

    My instructor is a primary care NP. That's what shocked me. I want to do primary care as well and that scared me a bit. At the time she told me what practice she worked for but that was a few...
  4. Reccomend a gender neutral title to replace "Nurse"!

    The term "Mailman" had the word man in it. Same with "fireman" and "policeman". I can see why those needed to be changed. As for nurses, the name in itself is gender neutral. The word may be...
  5. I graduate with my BSN in late July this year (14 weeks away)! When should I start applying for jobs? Should I be applying now? Or do I need to graduate first? I am not sure how to do it because of...
  6. When to start applying for jobs?

    GL! My school has the career fairs as well. I was unable to make it to the one in the spring because it fell on the day of my mid-terms! If I don't have a job by the time the one in the fall rolls...
  7. When to start applying for jobs?

    Yes, my friends who were hired before the NCLEX were hired to work as techs until their licensure came in with the promise they would be promoted to nurse with their licensure- they passed and were...
  8. Right job for BSN?

    Hm... I think most places accept 1 year of nursing for CNA
  9. Kennesaw State BSN Fall 2012

    I agree with the PP as far as jobs are
  10. Hi everyone! I am registered to take A&P 2 and Microbiology this summer. I keep hearing I should take one or the other but not both over the summer. I can't decide. I really want to take both...
  11. I'd love to hear an update to this
  12. Best floor for new grad?

    I should mention I am very near Kennestone Hospital in Georgia if anyone works there and knows of a good floor. I haven't done any rotations there so I don't know anything about
  13. Best floor for new grad?

    Thanks so much. I will definitely ask those questions when I get the chance to interview. I think your questions highlight my priority concerns as well as some I hadn't considered. I have friends who...
  14. Cassandra, check out my update, reply #23. In addition to pointing you towards my update, I did want to add for other people reading your post about doing both together with 2 kids and 2 jobs- this...
  15. Best floor for new grad?

    missladyrn, My biggest concern is actually what you addressed. I want to be on a floor with adequate staffing first (and training). Throughout my rotations in nursing school I haven't seen that yet....
  16. I just want to celebrate and geek out a little!

    Congratulations to you
  17. PA vs. MD vs. NP

    I posted an identical question a few years back! I don't know if I posted it here (probably) but I posted on MomMD and other sites, there was a PA site I posted on a lot, too. Ultimately I decided to...
  18. I also wanted to agree with everyone on picking up a hobby. I started knitting this semester and it has helped SO much to have something to do outside of studying!! I don't have time to do it all of...
  19. I agree with everyone! I wouldn't have thought to say what the OP said but it was brilliant. There have been so many times along the way I've wanted to quit but I do think in the long run it would...
  20. Kennesaw State BSN Fall 2012

    Good luck to all of you. I finish the program in July so I've been in your shoes. I hope you all get
  21. Kennesaw State FNP program

    The PP is correct. Kennesaw requires 3 years of full time RN experience completed within the last 5 years. I've spoken to many NPs who believe an NP program should have a minimum of 2 years experience...
  22. Thanks for replying. I guess it's time for an update I did not take the two together. I took micro by itself and then A&P 2 the following semester. I can't remember what if anything I took with...
  23. Current GPC nursing students?

    How many days a week do you attend class? Is it about the same every semester or does it change? I applied for the Spring semester and I live about 2 hours away. I am just trying to figure out how...
  24. First off, CONGRATULATIONS!!! Second of all, tell us who you are! I can't wait to meet the others that will be attending the program in the spring! For those of you who applied but don't know yet,...
  25. I am just curious what type of TEAS scores are accepted by other schools and how they judge the score. At my school you have to make an 80 or above to apply. It is a 4 yr BSN. I don't know anything...
