stats hasn't been that bad (about half way through the quarter), it's just a way to lie and validate it with numbers. Lots of easy repetitive calcs especially if you have the fancy calculator that does it for you.(as recommended by the instructor) ...

Weird about your husbands physical. The hubs is a trucker and I swear they'd do anything to pass some of those guys. I'd steer your hubs into a different career. Mine is driving truck because he has the lap dog of trucker routes (10 hr day makes 6...

Have you thought about retaking some classes to raise your GPA, what about an ADN program? You could always get a bachelors degree in a different field and hope that those classes would raise your GPA enough to get in as a second degree student, but...

on the testing out note, make sure that it will transfer in pass/fail not a grade. the cc program around here transfers clep and all test outs in as a c, virtually knocking you out of competition.

I found the exam to be fairly easy so I don't know if the reduced time will inhibit you that way. That said NE requires a certain number of hours for a program to be accepted by the state, and I would be worried about not meeting that threshold.

I took bio 1010 hybrid fall quarter. Basically I did all the "work" at home and went in to lab 5 times over the course of the semester. It worked ok, the prof was a flake though so I signed up for chem 1010 in class rather than risk another prof wh...

Jumping in late and haven't read the replies, sorry if I'm just repeating previous advice. The first thing you'll need to do is take the basic science pre-reqs for your pre-reqs. I had to take a general bio class before I could entertain the idea o...

I volunteer ER. It was fairly easy to get started, physical, drug test, orientation. I'm volunteering so that I have experience as I'm full time in school and a stay at home mom during the day so I don't have time to work. This gets me into the en...

It's the same way here 60+ credit hrs. get to register first, about 4-5 days later all other previously enrolled students register, and about 1.5 weeks later all new enrollment's register.

a&p fills super quick, like insanely quick! See if you can get on the wait list, a ton of people drop around here, and if you're ok with starting the class late and catching up, lots of people drop w/i the first week after getting the syllabus a...

Not much. Where I'm volunteering we change beds/clean rooms. Call people back if it's packed and take them to the proper room. Transport to ct/xray/etc. Any misc. tasks. Pretty uneventful.

I tried to follow but all the course numbers got me. So open an excel document make a couple columns, first write out what you have grouped by area (math with math science with science) then in the next column make a list of what school a requires, ...

Around here if it comes back positive they do a chest xray to make sure you're not active.

It'll depend on the program you want into. Some require chem, developmental pysc, nutrition, human growth and development, a history class, stats the list could go on and on. Heck one program I looked into required an art or photography class as a ...

One of the hospitals around here does Versant Nurse Residencies (I think). Look up the versant site I know they're in a lot of places.

I think it's mostly the fear of the unknown. I just tested yesterday (passed who hoo), best advice review all the skills you could be tested on. Our book had nifty little pull out pages with the critical steps bolded. We also knew what groupings o...

at least 2. One for front, one for back, make sure to use a new spot on the rag every time you wipe.

Yep, that would be me. I'm currently "pre" and won't apply until I have all of the prereqs finished, or darn close (a couple of deadlines come before my last quarter). Seems to be the trend around here that while you can get in without having them ...

I'm still pre so take this with a grain of salt, but after two vaginal births I'd of probably kicked you if you put your fingers in my vagina to stretch it out. Perineum support, yeah great don't like tears, but hands in my vagina would've been a no...

I'm still pre at this point, but I would assume that you have a moderate chance of running into the afore mentioned situations in clinicals but can probably avoid it by telling your instructor your objections. Otherwise be sure to pick your area wel...

I'm not in CA so I probably won't be helpful, but can you go and retake some of your lower scoring classes? Here (NE) the ADN programs are extremely competitive and you wouldn't get in with a GPA less than 3.0 (most are 3.5

I've done a million searches on this topic but haven't been able to find a definitive answer. I've seen all the DNP buzz and haven't been able to make sense of it. Is the masters level CNM going the way of the dodo bird? I understand that the DNP ...

Selling benefits is illegal, they do bad bad things to you if they find out. Having as many kids as possible to live off the system is legal, but in poor taste.

Can you pull up some local hospital websites and see what they're offering their new grads?

Go in and talk to your aid department, they can change your EFC manually if your status changes. Keep in mind that any judgments they make will only be good at that college and will not transfer to any other college.
