  1. Texas renewal

    My biggest question was whether or not the "April 30th 2009" in her OP was a typo or not. That could be a problem in
  2. Waitlisted for Anatomy...

    I'd definitely contact the professor to see what their policies are...where I live, if you can get in to a lab, you can get into the lecture of your choice. Also, if you get in to neither, if you show...
  3. Yeah, ours are about half-full right now and I don't register until tomorrow morning, ulp! But we have a provision here that if you get in to a lab, you can get in to whatever lecture you choose. So...
  4. Years Experience on the white board

    Yeah, I can see how reassuring it would be for a new grad to come in and write "one month" or whatever. Quick way to make your job
  5. A & P 1 Spring 2010

    I'm registering the second day of registration (this coming Tuesday), and as long as you get in to a lab, they'll get you in to whatever lecture you want, so I'm hoping I'll have a fairly decent shot...
  6. UW, in Washington, has an ABSN program. I'm pretty sure, at
  7. MA's in hospitals, replacing RNs ?

    But unfortunately, there's tons of MAs out there that don't have your daughter's
  8. Do any nurses work "normal" hours??

    From my understanding (and I'm not a nurse) most nurses work twelve-hour shifts, three times a week. Depending on where you are, you may have to alternate weekend shifts. In a few cases you can work...
  9. I currently go to Clark (Yay, penguins~) and have heard nothing but good stuff about their program. It's based on points, though, and they're implementing a new system in April. You'd really have to...
  10. Pros and Cons of nursing

    I'm trying to decide between nursing and another career. Nursing was a recent decision of mine (I'm about a quarter-way through my pre-reqs; was supposed to start A&P next quarter but have all the...
  11. Pros and Cons of nursing

    I'm definitely going to try to shadow as much as I can...I'm busy this whole weekend, so going around and asking /right now/ is out. I hope to get around to it next week, since I only have one exam...

    Government does. :heartbeat I go to school solely on financial
  13. Pros and Cons of nursing

    ...it's easier to go to school free and not have to work, I
  14. Pros and Cons of nursing

    I'm on Financial aid, so if I work as a tech, there's a chance I'll lose it. I'm hoping to shadow a few nurses in the coming weeks...haven't heard back from the hospital, so we'll see if that comes...
  15. Help! Just barely hanging on!

    While I don't really have any advice for you, I just wanted to offer hugs and wish you the best of luck! You can do
  16. Almost all the colleges in WA don't have a waiting list. Most of them accept on GPA/point-based systems. This is BSN AND ADN
  17. Does this Path into Nursing sound Sensible?

    :heartbeat I defer to your superior
  18. Is this even possible?

    ...I think that'd be kind of difficult to swing. Especially as a new grad, or even for a few years - people right now are so tentative with their jobs that a lot have to be "extra" careful. You might...
  19. Does this Path into Nursing sound Sensible?

    ...she does realize that Accelerated programs have JUST as many people applying to them, right? Again, if she goes directly into an NP, she will NOT get hired easily due to lack of /experience/....
  20. Does this Path into Nursing sound Sensible?

    I definitely recommend taking a few years off to get some experience before going to a MSN degree. ...and why doesn't she go straight for the BSN? She'd be an RN sooner and able to get some experience...
  21. Getting kicked out of the program

    I'd almost recommend not pulling an all-nighter the night before a test, because that will just making your brain fuzzy. Study every day like you have a quiz tomorrow - pulling all-nighters...
  22. I've got a loonnnggg time before I apply. I'm hoping to apply to a school August of 2010 and get in for January 2011. Otherwise...well, I could potentially not get in until April or Fall of that year,...
  23. Some people just make others feel inadequate because they're suffering from a damaged self esteem. Of course, the ones that do this to other people are the ones that seem to rarely study then wonder...
  24. 20 Questions about Schools???

    Okay, so I live on the /other/ side of the US, but I figured I'd input my two cents. Even if the pre-requisites aren't required, I would highly (and I do mean HIGHLY) recommend taking Anatomy and...
  25. Only taking four (technically three) classes - have As in statistics, human biology lecture, and human biology lab. Also taking Art - have a C- right now, and the way my professor grades, I'll be...
