  1. Well this is bitter sweet.

    That sucks! My ADN program doesn't require us to take a separate Pharm or Patho class and I was going to take them if I had to wait another year. Luckily, I start the program this fall. Once I finish...
  2. Fundamentals before pharm?

    I think you should be fine since most ADN program like mine does not require students to take a separate pharmacology
  3. ADN class of 2013

    Congrats everyone! I will also be starting the ADN program this fall. We have our orientation July 28th. I already have all my vaccinations and BLS certification out of the way. Ordered my uniforms,...
  4. I can't believe it!

    :yelclap: Congrats! I kinda know how you feel. I'm excited and nervous at the same time. I also start this fall after 2 years of taking all the pre-req's. I plan on reviewing my A&P since I took...
  5. How many semesters is your program?

    At my school it's an ADN program with 5 semesters (Fall, Spring, Summer, Fall, Spring) I also start this fall and will graduate (hopefully) Spring of 2013. I'm excited! I can't wait to get started......
  6. No Longer a Pre-Nursing Student

    I just wanted to say that I am no longer a pre-nursing student... I will finally be an actual NURSING STUDENT this August and I am so excited. I received my schedule for clinical and lab day/times...
  7. How did everyone do in your Spring classes?

    Got an A in microbiology... and an A in college comp 2.... but would have been happy with a B since I'm not too fond of writing argumentative
  8. Pax Admission Test - Failed

    Actually, the study guide helped me with the physics part of the test. Did you get the study
  9. PAX entrance exam

    Do not spend too much time on the questions since it is timed. My sister-in-law just took it today and didn't make the 60 percentile needed for the ADN program at the school. Now she has to wait 6...
  10. How are you going to spend your Thanksgiving break?

    I'll be spending my Thanksgiving working on my 8-10 page research paper for Human Growth & Development class, study for final exams for A&P II, Organic Chem II, and my Gerontology class. I...
  11. What classes are you taking in the Spring?

    In the Spring, I'm just taking microbiology w/ lab and college comp II. Those are the only classes I need to take and then off to Nursing classes in the Fall. I am excited and scared at the same time...
  12. oh where's my luck?????

    Don't give up! If nursing is your passion, then you should pursue it no matter what is standing in the way. Why not apply to other schools that is not on a lottery system? So what if you have to wait?...
  13. what is harder, A&P or Chemistry?

    I think O-chem is much easier than A&P. I've also heard that if you take chemistry before A&P, you do much better in A&P. Last semester I took O-Chem 1 and A&P 1 and got A's in both....
  14. anyone take chemistry without college algebra and do good

    Basic algebra is all you need for chemistry. I'm pretty sure you will do fine with just intro to algebra. As long as you know how to do conversions (mg=g, ect., moles to mass, mass to moles) and work...
  15. ADN Fall 2011 Hopefuls!!!

    meghanTK and VannVann2008... I'm pretty sure you will have enough points to get in fall 2011. Just keep taking those classes and use all the resources you can. I find that youtube videos help me...
  16. ADN Fall 2011 Hopefuls!!!

    At my school, it's first come, first serve. To apply and get on the waitlist... we only need a 3.0 gpa with 12 credits or more. Get a C or better in intro to a&p, intro to chem, intro to algebra...
  17. ADN Fall 2011 Hopefuls!!!

    Hi VannVann... I was accepted to start the ADN program Fall 2011 at my school. I'm super nervous. I will have all my non-nursing courses completed by the time I start the nursing program. This...
  18. Patho and Chem?

    I do not see why not? There are many people who take chem and bio class together. I've taken A&P1 with lab and Organic Chem1 with lab and got As in both classes. I'm taking A&P2 with lab and...
  19. I need some guidance!

    I think you should stick with the general ed courses at the community college, then apply for the RN program. Not that many places are hiring LPNs anymore. Also, they are making current LPNs go back...
  20. Maybe you should go back to school and become an RN. Atleast you wouldn't have to start paying back your loans since you are back in school. This economy is kicking everyone in the butt. My husband...
  21. Did you try searching on
  22. Chemistry and physics questions on NLN

    I took the NLN last Jan and got a composite score of 121. Needed only 60 to apply to the nursing program. I did poorly on the vocabulary but well on the math and science part. The study guide really...
  23. Think I Bombed the NLN-RN Today :'(

    Congrats!!! I took the NLN-RN Pax test back in Jan and I felt the same way. We didn't have to take a physics class but the science part had way too many physics questions. I'm not even sure how they...
  24. A&P and Micro at the same time?

    At my school, we have to take A&P1 and A&P2 first before we can take microbiology. But I have seen people on here take microbiology before A&P classes. I think it would be doable if...
  25. Fall 2010 Class Schedule: Is it too much?

    itsnever2L8- I think you will do fine... It's all about determination. I have 3 children and work 20-25 hrs a week. My first semester (Fall 2009) I took.. Intro to A&P, Intro to Chem, College...
