  1. What Did Your A&P Classes Cover? Please Read/Reply!

    scrapworking replied to DiamondShortay's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm in a summer (on-line) A&P course as well, and it looks close to the same. We use the same lab book that you mentioned, but the textbook is different - ours is the Marieb one that goes with...

  2. Nursing as a 2nd Career

    scrapworking replied to Tinkwannabe1972's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There is truth in what you're saying...but I think it really varies from state to state. Everyone's being affected...though it still seems like the Nursing/Medical field is less affected, hence...

  3. Nursing as a 2nd Career

    scrapworking replied to Tinkwannabe1972's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's pretty much the same in Florida. Check with the resource your Unemployment office gives you for work placement. The Federal government programs that you may qualify for are the Federal...

  4. How can I get in?

    scrapworking replied to IdontWannaGrowup's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You're right Amber - hate to be flagged as "doesn't follow instructions"! Will call though - perhaps they look at them later. I'm also interested in why you take the TEAS after orientation? And...

  5. How can I get in?

    scrapworking replied to IdontWannaGrowup's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for the tips Amber! One of the schools I'm applying to doesn't have an entrance exam up front, though I've heard you take it after you've been accepted and the day of orientation. Another has...

  6. Taking prereqs and applying spring 2010 for fall 2010

    scrapworking replied to AccelCNL's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes, most all of my pre-reqs have been/will be/are on-line courses. There are several threads on the board with tips on studying with direct application to on-line classes. I'm in a summer A&P I...

  7. Taking prereqs and applying spring 2010 for fall 2010

    scrapworking replied to AccelCNL's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Clearwater,

  8. Florida CNA's

    scrapworking replied to combkk's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Wondering the same thing as the original poster! And if anyone knows of a good CNA program in the Clearwater/North Pinellas county area, I'd love some input...I'm on overload right now trying to...

  9. How can I get in?

    scrapworking replied to IdontWannaGrowup's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just read a thread on the board about the TEAS exam... timnug provided a link to down load the McGraw Hill Study Guide on Nursing School Entrance Exams...which a lot of people recommend. And it's...

  10. Teas test prep

    scrapworking replied to SmilesNoir's topic in Florida Nursing

    Thanks timnug!! D/L it with no problem from your second post - the first set wanted me to join their site, for a fee. So, big thanks! You have to have at least 15 posts before your PM ability gets...

  11. Starting nursing school in fall 2009...what do I do until then?

    scrapworking replied to snkristen3689's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's a ways off for me, but I wrote myself a note with some things to do to prepare from another thread on the boards here. Here's what I have: Start reading whatever Fundamentals of Nursing book...

  12. SPC-say it ain't so! Question on apply for Nursing program

    scrapworking replied to CVICUismydream's topic in Florida Nursing

    Something to consider - you may not want to try and do full-time pre-reqs in 2 (3 if you count the summer) semesters if you are working full-time. If they're looking at GPA, then you'll want to make...

  13. How can I get in?

    scrapworking replied to IdontWannaGrowup's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Ace your A&P lab. Score high on the entrance test. If allowed (all school's are different on this issue!) maybe re-take a course you're strong in to increase your GPA. Really, it all depends on...

  14. Is it ever going to happen?

    scrapworking replied to sunflowersrose's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congratulations as well! This is just my opinion, and what I would do in this situation, for what it's worth. I would go ahead with the MA program first since it is self-paced with only 2...

  15. How to achieve success in online courses

    scrapworking replied to Scooter5's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's pretty much how I do my on-line courses as well. I'm finishing up A&P I now. Our instructor also includes a ton of website links to review, especially for the lab portion. They are a...

  16. too long of a wait? advice needed

    scrapworking replied to meeep's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Have you confirmed with an Advisor at your school that you wouldn't qualify for application until after the deadline has passed? I know I won't have finished all my courses by the March 1st deadline,...

  17. Suggestions for a good student planner?

    scrapworking replied to futureflrn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good question...and yes, I'd like to see one of those crazy pages! Anyone use a PDA? I'm not cool enough to have an iPhone with some clever app on it...maybe someday though.

  18. To be or not to be..

    scrapworking replied to abak2kab's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Not there yet myself, but I can empathize. I equate it to trying to fit a square peg in a round hole. It's going to take some whittling (I come from a computer/business/management background) but...

  19. Finances while in NS

    scrapworking replied to 2ndLife's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Looking to get/be creative when I get accepted into the Nursing program too. I've also thought about CNA/PCT work...but we'll see what turns up. I'm a single parent/no CS, currently unemployed and...

  20. Everest School of nursing

    scrapworking replied to Motoxer28's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Oh, I see....gotcha! Makes sense to

  21. Everest School of nursing

    scrapworking replied to Motoxer28's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Public schools? How so? Sorry that the long, detailed post with specific experiences with previous poster in this thread and Everest was deleted. I'm sure due to instructor's names being posted. It...

  22. A&P Help... From My Brain to Yours!

    scrapworking replied to polka-dot's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank You! I'm almost done with A&P I this summer, but am thankful to have found your notes - this material has come crazy fast and I'll need the reinforcement. THANKS!

  23. Older Nursing Students

    scrapworking replied to Neats's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Thank you very much for your encouraging words Mahage! I'll look into the program you mentioned as well. Thank

  24. Older Nursing Students

    scrapworking replied to Neats's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Pretty much echoing qpod97...I'll be 46 next month, with 2 semesters of pre-reqs to do. Hoping to get into the Fall 2010 class. When I finish I'll be almost 49. I'm not so concerned about school,...

  25. Taking prereqs and applying spring 2010 for fall 2010

    scrapworking replied to AccelCNL's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Taking: Now: A&P I Fall: A&P II, Psych, and Statistics (then I'm eligible to apply) Spring: Micro and Speech (then all pre-reqs are done!) (Still working out the Statistics - have to test out...
