  1. If you got tuition reimbursement and had to sign a contract

    Chris99mu replied to Chris99mu's topic in General Nursing

    My father and I have already talked about this and he is fine either way. He won't want the money back after it's all said and done; he just said I could use it to pay bills or what have you. I am...

  2. Average Accepted GPA

    Chris99mu replied to cupcake231's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I will have a 3.43 when I apply at a CC here in central Florida. And an advisor told me that that GPA falls into the "alternate" category, or in other words, pretty much the last people to get...

  3. Of the 40ish people who were in my A&P I class...

    Chris99mu posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    None. Zilch. Zero received an A. Makes me feel better about my B. lol The prof is new, he's a chiro by day. It was his first sem. teaching. He really was awful, teaching-wise. Would set out to...

  4. Getting a BSN but have BA in Business ???

    Chris99mu replied to jam911's topic in Florida Nursing

    getting an accelerated BSN at the university here is 6 TIMES more expensive per credit hour than getting my ADN at the local community college This is why I am not getting my BSN. I simply cannot...

  5. Here's my TEAS and GPA for PHCC Aug '10 - WDYT??

    Chris99mu replied to Chris99mu's topic in Florida Nursing

    It is my understanding you can take the TEAS whenever you want, keeping in mind that your score(s) are only good for 2 years from the date you take the test. Your pre-reqs are a totally separate...

  6. Getting a BSN but have BA in Business ???

    Chris99mu replied to jam911's topic in Florida Nursing

    But the other thing to remember is the cost. Given that I have a bachelors degree already, though in business, I can go either the ASN route or the BSN route (whether advanced or not) However,...

  7. Getting a BSN but have BA in Business ???

    Chris99mu replied to jam911's topic in Florida Nursing

    I'm not sure what you are looking for in terms of "more." If you have specific questions, ask and I will do my best to answer. PM (private message) me if you have the

  8. Getting a BSN but have BA in Business ???

    Chris99mu replied to jam911's topic in Florida Nursing

    I am like you in that I too have a BS in Business Admin and am taking classes at the local CC to get my ADN. However, instead of getting ANOTHER bachelors degree, I was told and am planning to get my...

  9. Has anyone here gotten into nursing school with a 'B' in Anatomy?

    Chris99mu replied to emily_ganshert's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This might be just my school, but honestly, I feel like this is a rumor that gets started with the advisors. Some of us were talking in A&P right before our final and one girl said this very...

  10. A&P 1 students,,,, How ya doing?

    Chris99mu replied to crazytonurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I slid out with a B. It was TOUGH! I was hoping for an A but was very happy to get a B, in both lab and lecture. Now I'm complete and ready to apply.

  11. A&P 1 students,,,, How ya doing?

    Chris99mu replied to crazytonurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hopefully I will get out of this class with a B, but only by the skin of my teeth! I am studying right now for my final, which thankfully is not cumulative. I really ate some humble pie in this...

  12. Low GPA?

    Chris99mu replied to Med Succor's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm similar to bluechick -- my pre-req GPA is low, relatively speaking, at 3.4. My advisor said there were a few alternates who got in last sem with a 3.4 but that makes me think I am risking too...

  13. PHCC RN students (recently accepted)

    Chris99mu posted a topic in Florida Nursing

    If you are willing, would you please post your GPA (pre-req GPA is what is used, right?) If I get A's in A&P, the lab and CGS, I will still only have a 3.7 since I got a B- in Psych, which at my...

    Ha!!!! Guess A&P I has dropped me down a peg or two! "Oh hey reality! Didn't see you

  15. bio121 doable over the summer?

    Chris99mu replied to jeanttb's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    "Doable" depends on you and your schedule. Are you a single mom working 2 jobs with no family around? Then no, it's probably not doable, given the sheer time needed for class AND studying. I will...

  16. Anyone in FL considering going into army nursing?

    Chris99mu replied to Renee4christ's topic in Florida Nursing

    YOu came back!!! Awesome info! Thanks so much. I think I need to get into a school first! LOL I am in Tampa so we have MacDill (AF). But I also have a family so moving around does not sound too...

  17. Teas Test Skills Tips Please

    Chris99mu replied to QUIEROSERNURSE's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Ditto everything ASBN said. I took it today and really thought that the Kaplan review book practice exams were harder than the actual test. For instance, the reading portions in the practice tests...

  19. Accepted/Past Baycare EAYL students....question

    Chris99mu posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    In order to apply and be considered, do you have to have COMPLETED A&P I and II? Because I know SPC, they will consider you for acceptance even if you are in the midst of completing your last...

  20. Anyone in FL considering going into army nursing?

    Chris99mu replied to Renee4christ's topic in Florida Nursing

    I've definitely thought about it, at least into *a* branch, not sure which. My dad recently retired out of the AF so he has been overtly plugging them! Can you tell me more about it? Pros? Cons?...

  21. How many classes are mom's taking at once?

    Chris99mu replied to freesia29's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have 2 kids, ages 3 and 5 plus I watch another baby full time. My husband works 6 days a week, 80+ hours a week (and he is NOT a doctor or lawyer ) My mom is close by but only watches them when I...

  22. Lesser of 2 evils: Micro or A&P II in the summer?

    Chris99mu posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It's a toss up - one I will take in spring and one I will take in summer, but I can't figure out which. I hear they are both excrutiating when packed into the summer. Any advice? BTDTs? TIA!...

  23. Lesser of 2 evils: Micro or A&P II in the summer?

    Chris99mu replied to Chris99mu's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks all! That was what I was thinking, as A&P II is a pre-req (sort of) for one of my schools. PLus, now that I am in I, I would really just like to move right into

  24. A&P 1 students,,,, How ya doing?

    Chris99mu replied to crazytonurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm definitely finding it harder than I had thought it would be. I think primarily that is because I am working f/t as well as running a house with 2 small children. It's tough to get up the...
