  1. Burnout, just dragging by in my humanities

    Student4_life posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    So I finished all the "hard" sciences in my first year (Chem and Micro and A&P I&II), mainly to ensure that they were on the transcripts the admissions comittee looks at (the school I am going...

  3. Maryland Nursing Schools: Best Choice?

    Student4_life replied to 2bmalenurse23's topic in Maryland Nursing

    yeah it is 100-150. but to be fair we should look at the schools demographics and the average graduation rate in the state at 4 years. in 2008 (most recent year with data available from mhec) coppin...

    Student4_life replied to 2bmalenurse23's topic in Maryland Nursing

  6. UMB FALL 2011

    Student4_life replied to kayroool's topic in Maryland Nursing

    The data is really just for entertainment value. I collected it before I realized what I was doing, hoping that it would give me insight of what to shoot for. But the issue is that every cohort group...

    Student4_life replied to KaroSnowQueen's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    With the risk of getting flamed I'll add that I am not doing it for the money. I made that mistake with my first career (well not entirely true, I chose the military because I felt I owed all of you...

  8. I'm Totally Regretting Taking 3 Science w/Labs :( HELP!

    Student4_life replied to lifelearningrn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Actually I think you are doing well. Chem is a darn hard course and few students get A's or B's in Chem. I have read alot of your posts on here since I joined months ago and I recommend holding your...

  9. Is anyone confident about getting into Nursing School?

    Student4_life replied to Student4_life's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    And this is my point. How the heck did we end up like this? I have never stressed over a test or an interview or a date or even a deployment, but here I am stressing over if the admissions office...

  10. Living expenses + WCU tuition fees....

    Student4_life replied to estellagirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    People used to invest in houses that were worth what they paid for them, then everyone wanted a house and the market price went sky-high to an unsustainable level and people were paying more than they...

    Student4_life replied to kayroool's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Thats just it, I have awesome grades, great test scores, outstanding letters of rec (I think, I mean I know the professors that wrote them like me as a student in and out of the lab and are my...

  14. UMB FALL 2011

    Student4_life replied to kayroool's topic in Maryland Nursing

    From what I read in the other threads is that there is no waitlist that applicants become aware of, and that's why you haven't read of a waitlist or rejection status. The first round of offers goes...

  15. Does an associates in pre-nursing only amount to anything to employers?

    Student4_life replied to northmississippi's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Honestly it's just a way for your school to increase their grad rate. A degree in pre-nursing means very little (although writing that you have an AA on a resume looks better than writing that you...

  16. Housing near University of Maryland, Baltimore

    Student4_life replied to love-d-OR's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Um, safe and near the school don't really go hand in hand. That's just my experience from going up to Baltimore. It seems to me that once students get into schools they stop posting here, so there is...

  24. Taking 13 credits for a Summer semester in order to make January admissions!?

    Student4_life replied to Skylarslaughter's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Totally doable. I took A&P I/II over the summer and had tons of free time (seriously only put in 5 hours a day 4 days a week including class). The only real hinderance would be if your school...
