  1. I think you now attending an easy school is cheating. Ok, so thats a bit over the top, but what I mean by it is that there are so many students not in your one class that are going to be applying to...
  2. I am going to waste like 1 year of life...

    If your area is like mine you will have to take college algebra no matter what, its both a nursing school reqirement and a pre-req to stats. I took up thru pre-calc in High School and Calc while in...
  3. Low GPA :(

    I wish i could give you a more reassuring answer, but with everyone and their significant other applying to nursing schools, a GPA below 3.0 doesn't do you any favors. It really depends on the school....
  4. Pre-Nursing background check

    I can only relate this to my own experience with traffic tickets. Payment of a fine is admission to guilt. You were convicted the day you paid the fine. The background check will find this, so be sure...
  5. Accelerated BSN VS Masters Entry

    To me it seems like alot of the masters programs are little more than BSN programs, but are set up to allow second degree students the ability to get govt loans (grad plus), that they would have been...
  6. UMB Chemistry prerequisites??

    Just general Chem with lab (no orgo
  7. Excessive nursing applicants everywhere!

    Im curious as to why you are allowed to have a late start but not the next guy. You got your CNA 2 years after you graduated HS, thats a gap just the same as those that went to college, just that you...
  8. CA is really impacted, that being said you should give it a round 2. Even then it's not for sure an awesome score will let them overlook your 3.37 when they are looking for a 3.5 so be sure to have...
  9. What classes are you taking in the Spring?

    I foolishly took all my sciences (the core four) my first year so I have no more fun classes, just the hoops that are humanities to jump through. It's going to be a long semester, thankfully I was...
  10. University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB)-Spring 2011

    So the numbers from an open house lists 643 BSN students are enrolled right now. If you figure that those are split evenly between the 4 semesters, then you could potentially graduate with 161...
  11. University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB)-Spring 2011

    Not everyone that is accepted
  12. UMB FALL 2011

    I thought it was a b average in the sciences, and no grade could be less than a b while on a conditional
  13. Phi Theta Kappa - Haven't we all been invited?

    My school does not require participation. But if you are not going to take advantage of a club why join it? Does your transcript show a GPA above a 3.5? That's all PTK shows. No matter what anyone...
  14. Letter of recommendation

    If it is just 2 schools give them the forms. If it is more ask for x amount of sealed
  15. Summer Prerequisites?

    All of them should offer them at least in one of the summer
  16. how does the grading system work at your college?

    I rather get 4 points for a 90.0 then 3.3 points for an 89.9. I am very glad my school has no +/-, its 3% easier to get a
  17. Fastest Option for LPN to CRNA in Florida

    If are looking for speed it may be more beneficial to go right for a BSN. Less application processes to delay you and fewer chances that you will have to repeat a course due to schools not accepting...
  18. GCU or ASU??

    The cost advantage goes to ASU for sure, but seeing how state schools are up to their necks in applicants it might be easier to go GCU. No matter what you need the
  19. The reserves have a very different GI Bill than AD. And even if you were AD the VA is in the process of revamping the ability to transfer the GI Bill (it was intended as a retention tool and not an...
  20. Being stationed together

    Best bet is for her to stay a civilian, because even if she becomes a supply officer, the military is not very friendly to dual military
  21. I have a great memory, and the sciences just make sense to me, and I have breezed thru my pre-reqs with only studying 30 min prior to the test (not a habit I recommend, but it works for me). However...
  22. Is chemistry important to become a nurse?

    Chem goes hand in hand with A&P and bodily interactions. I am not even in nursing school, so I can't say if Chem is important for nurses, but it sure is important in knowing what is going on in...
  23. Pre-Req's

    I was very worried about A&P 1&2 before I took them. But after knocking them out over the summer I have to say that CHEM was much harder (and I took Chem over 15 weeks vs 5 weeks per A&P...
