  1. want to know nursing schools without lottery system

    Guest 360983 replied to queensqueen's topic in General Nursing

    Texas schools don't use a lottery system. You might want to search for this topic. It's been asked several times

  2. Should cancer survivors become nurses?

    Guest 360983 replied to psustudent5's topic in General Nursing

    Why are you so worried about cancer? Was it because both of your grandmothers died of cancer, or have you had cancer yourself? If you've had cancer yourself, perhaps you should talk to your...

  3. Need Advice.....ANimal Nursing or Continue RN Nursing???

    Guest 360983 replied to AR2010's topic in General Nursing

    Hey, it's never too late to go back to school, especially with your GI bill, right? :) I only mention the M6 thing because I knew several people that did it (back when 91W were new) and most of them...

  4. Plans if not accepted into nursing school

    Guest 360983 replied to Doug85's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you haven't done research before, you'll probably need a masters. My sister has a bachelors in a life science field and research experience, but got her job at a lab only on the condition that she...

  5. Need Advice.....ANimal Nursing or Continue RN Nursing???

    Guest 360983 replied to AR2010's topic in General Nursing

    M6 isn't as hard to get as a female because you end up in a hospital. A deployed hospital, of course, but they seem to think it's better. What attracted you to being a vet? My little sister wanted to...

  6. Entering nursing school with an existing mental illness.

    Guest 360983 replied to jonb's topic in General Students

    In my state, schools ask this because if you have certain mental health issues, you need to fill out a Declaratory order that goes to the Board of Nursing and they decide if you can or cannot be a...

  7. Scheduled to work called out due to snow--can I be fired?

    Guest 360983 replied to Wsmith16's topic in General Nursing

    I can't believe that some people are questioning the decision of some to call out when there is 50+ inches of unplowed snow out there. I'm not a nurse yet. I work for a security company and I work at...

  8. UT Houston Fall 2010 (University of Texas at Houston)

    Guest 360983 replied to mjbayuda's topic in Texas Nursing

    Oh, I'll be plenty compassionate and helpful to ya'll once we get in. I just see everyone here as competition, and I want the spot BAD. Half of everyone being interviewed is getting in. One in two of...

  9. Question about equal pay for equal work...

    Guest 360983 replied to PastoralCareRN's topic in General Nursing

    I know it's illegal, but I've worked for several companies that will fire you for disclosing your pay rate. I live in an at will state, so even if they don't fire you for that specific reason, they...

  10. UT Houston Fall 2010 (University of Texas at Houston)

    Guest 360983 replied to mjbayuda's topic in Texas Nursing

    Finally got my letter! 1) Nursing Prereq. GPA: 4.0 2) Nursing Science GPA: 4.0 3) Undergraduate GPA: 4.0 4) Where you took the majority of your prereqs.: HCC, Lonestar, San Antonio College, Central...

  11. Thinking about Nursing as my second Bachelor degree... yay or nay?

    Guest 360983 replied to allyv305's topic in General Nursing

    If you like teaching, most states don't require you to graduate with an education degree in order to teach. My boyfriend graduated with PR & Advertising degrees and taught. He just had to attend a...

  12. UT Houston Fall 2010 (University of Texas at Houston)

    Guest 360983 replied to mjbayuda's topic in Texas Nursing

    Horseloverbubba, I'm expecting an interview letter and still haven't gotten one yet. I didn't get my application finished until about a week before the deadline. The nursing department said that they...

  13. Boyfriend and school?

    Guest 360983 replied to TaraRae123's topic in General Students

    Oh, and I forgot to add about the sex... It depends on where you live, but if he's 18 (I'm guessing he is if he's thinking about joining the Army), it could be

  14. Hospital based nursing programs

    Guest 360983 replied to tkgal's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There are very few hospital based programs anymore. For those who don't know what this is--a hospital program is where you go to class at the hospital, clinicals at the hospital, pay the hospital your...

  15. PA or NP??

    Guest 360983 replied to madmad89's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hey, my sister has an animal science degree and she just got a job doing research at the UMD school of medicine. She even gets a free masters out of the deal. It's not a useless degree! Anyways,...

  16. Nursing school plans

    Guest 360983 replied to karenflrz's topic in General Students

    It would be faster (and cheaper!) to go straight for your RN at the community college, unless you go to one of those colleges where everyone gets put on a 4 year long waiting list. LPN school is...

  17. Boyfriend and school?

    Guest 360983 replied to TaraRae123's topic in General Students

    First of all--go buy yourself some condoms RIGHT NOW. Seriously, right now. Faster. Then call Planned Parenthood and set an appointment for a pregnancy test, STD test and a chance to talk to a...

  18. Does anyone know anything about this issue

    Guest 360983 replied to hn8404's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just wanted to add that once you're deployed, Central Texas College (ctcd.edu) has some unique distance learning options that are not internet dependent (take a class on CD, or on your smartphone)...

  19. Has masters and pre reqs....

    Guest 360983 replied to WifesAfutureRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    UT doesn't have an accelerated BSN but they do have an alternate entry Masters in Nursing (AE MSN). There are a lot of pros and cons to an AE MSN (check the boards for recent topics discussing this)....

  20. Need comments and support for hysterectomy

    Guest 360983 replied to supernatural's topic in General Nursing

    My mom had a full hysterectomy and oophorectomy (sp?) about 5 years ago. I want to say it wasn't laproscopic, but she did come home that day. She took 6 weeks off work (respiratory therapist) but she...

  21. UT Houston Fall 2010 (University of Texas at Houston)

    Guest 360983 replied to mjbayuda's topic in Texas Nursing

    LOL, I had to check with the school before I drove myself (and my boyfriend, who now has to check the mail as soon as he gets home) crazy. I'm expecting an interview letter, because I have a 4.0, an...

  22. If Nurses were paid $8.50 per hr, would you or would you not

    Guest 360983 replied to RNnbakes's topic in General Nursing

    I'd stay at my current security guard job, where new hires start at $9.75/hour. In Texas. Guess this makes me a terrible, horrible wanna be nurse. I mean, I should be placing my patients before...

  23. My Two Cents

    Guest 360983 replied to Joyfull77's topic in General Nursing

    Schools are so competitive because the seats are very limited. If you were to run it like CNA class, where you just sign up, where are the extra clinicals going to be held? Who is going to teach the...

  24. IS BSN slower paced than ASN

    Guest 360983 replied to 2bnurseTV's topic in General Students

    From what I've seen, the difference between BSN and ADN programs (in my area, at least) is more classes on leadership, research and community health in the BSN program. Everyone takes the NCLEX so...

    Guest 360983 replied to mjbayuda's topic in Texas Nursing
