  1. Need advice on education plan!

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

    UofP isn't a good idea if you don't plan on using that degree. Go to community college, you might not get pell grants, but I am sure the loans that are being used to bolster the pell grant at UofP...

    Student4_life replied to kayroool's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Hey guys, don't take what they said on the phone too seriously. They are surely frustrated with all the phone calls asking when things are going to be posted and are putting out the latest possiable...

  3. I need help plz!!!!!!

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

    Go to Barnes & Noble and read their books, they don't care. You can also hit up your local library and see if they have any resources that will come in handy (part of the multiple choice test is...

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

    Yeah sorry. When I say guard or reserve I mean Army guard or Army reserve and that info might even be dated so hit up

  5. Considering joining the National Guard to pay for schooling and guaruntee a job?

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

    Military.com is a better forum than here for questions like that. And I think it would be good to talk to a guard recruiter because as I recall ADN in the guard or reserves equals a commission (and...

  6. Nursing School Selection Process???

    Student4_life replied to adampricecna's topic in General Nursing

    "Big person panties" I spit coffee when I read that. But I am glad to hear that I am not a serial killer because I got a high test score, and better yet I can be genuinely interested in nursing and...

  8. Why is the wait so long to find out?

    Student4_life replied to SB113's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I was wondering...do you think they really wait until the end of the current semester to see how students did in their current classes before accepting them? No, the school will have no clue what your...

  9. How to survive Algebra and how to learn it before taking the college placement test?

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

    Oh, I almost forgot. A great tip for getting math is to be able to do most basic calcs in your head. The reasoning behind this (my own theory, but it makes sense) is that if you understand numbers and...

  10. How to survive Algebra and how to learn it before taking the college placement test?

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

    I know you are in a rush to get started. But I am 26 and considered young for Nursing School, plans are fluid. It's good that you are mapping out your path, but I am a bit concerned with it's pace....

  11. Nursing school and low GPA worried

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

    But how do they measure hard work other than grades? How can you say a student with a 3.95 (60 credits all A's save for 1 B) worked harder than a student with a 4.0? And is someone that worked hard to...

  13. Is it true that nursing career is on the decline?

  14. How much would you pay for your rn degree?!

  15. How to survive Algebra and how to learn it before taking the college placement test?

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

    Math isn't so bad, it follows rules (well at least the math you need for nursing) and is for the most part plug and chugg. As for the assesment test, I can't advise you to try to place into a math...

  16. LPN-BSN in Maryland?

    Student4_life replied to Elaine73LPN's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Not sure what the LPN can do for you but there are a bunch of BSN programs in the area. Bowie State is in PGC. Coppin State, JHU and UMB are just up the 95 in Baltimore. There are also a huge amount...

  17. If we are supposed to be promoting gender equality in nursing

    Student4_life replied to LPNweezy's topic in General Nursing

    I think you ment gender equality, but on to your question. Men in Nursing are a unique population. Just like I get frustrated with state specific questions clogging up the pre-nursing forum I doubt...

  18. Pre-nursing students: What is your course/credit load?

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

    Science can time consuming, but it's also very fun. My worst semester was 14 credits (I take classes in the winter and summer to ease the load during the school year to 12-14 hours, helps with...

  19. Nursing school essay

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

    It really needs to be your essay. Look at what the schools goals are and reflect those in your paper, also try to stay away from the whole "I want to help people" and "I once had a ______ who was...

    Student4_life replied to Ev1987's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Save Sociology for the winter term if you are planning on having a winter term. As far as the summer goes, I agree with everyone else in that since this is your first semester take it easy. School is...

  23. PLEASE HELP! NEVADA or CA

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

    I'd advise you to wait until you can apply to the one low cost yet respected school. At that time apply to all the programs you are eligible for. There is a constant debate in here between 2&4...
