  3. Dosage Question

    203bravo replied to babsy28's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    There must be a piece missing somewhere --- the information as presented does represent that you have on hand a 2mL vial at 30 mg/mL .. thus a total dose of 60 mg. So it would be 0.5 mL to give a 15...

    203bravo replied to Nursekidd1's topic in General Students

    I have to agree --- "Life" is always going to happen.. and there will always be something.. don't keep putting off until the perfect moment or you may just miss your dreams completely.

  5. Hep B Vaccine Question

    203bravo replied to dallas_fan's topic in General Students

    I wish you luck -- but it was stressed to me by both the school and health department that there is 2 week window (before or after the due date) for each of the last 2 injections.. and if you went...

  6. wisconsin online second degree bsn program

    203bravo replied to fafa15's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Actually, if you read about the program it does seem like a very legit (although experimental) program. It requires students to progress at a very rapid rate -- 1 credit hour per week, all students...

  7. wisconsin online second degree bsn program

    203bravo replied to fafa15's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

  9. Less than favorable nursing school applicant requesting assistance

    203bravo replied to rileym14's topic in General Students

    You are correct that all colleges are different in their acceptance criteria.. Are you planning on pursuing a traditional BSN route, i.e. 4 or 5 full semesters, or the ABSN 14 or so month option? The...

  10. Buying a car for nursing school

    203bravo replied to johsonmichelle's topic in General Students

  11. RN ADN Prereq.

    203bravo replied to TexasNoel's topic in Texas Nursing

    It would basically be insane to take Chem, AP I, AP II, and stats all in the same semester. However after reviewing the NCTC catalog successful completion of AP I is a prereq to taking AP II so the...

  12. are private school more lenient on their admission requirements?

    203bravo replied to mee9mee9's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This is exactly correct --- how lax is Yale, Princeton, or Harvard .. they are all private schools.. But the likes of DeVry and Capella do accept and aggressively sell (er recruit) anyone that show...

  13. TCU HESI component?

    203bravo replied to nursinghereicome27's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    If you are taking the computerized version -- if your school doesn't require it then it will not even be tested.. Can't help if you are taking the paper

  14. Can't get federal aid, best private loans?

    203bravo replied to Wrestler133's topic in General Students

    I have reviewed the changes that were made in 2010 and see the one's that deal with changes in aggregate limits and repayment terms but did not see anywhere where the maximum number of credit hours...

  15. The Trifecta

    203bravo replied to MusicalCoffee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's the program layout in my program for 1st semester nursing students. All classes are laid out and are only offered once a year.. so have to take them if you want to advance, otherwise have to...

  16. The Trifecta

    203bravo replied to MusicalCoffee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just finished my 1st semester - Patho, Fundamentals & practicum, and Health Assessment & practicum... yes it is a TON and moves very quickly, especially since my classes were designed to...

  18. EMT Starting RN program anyone else go down this road?

    203bravo replied to Deuceswild1's topic in Men in Nursing

    Surprising that this poster attempts to sound so well educated about the job that pre hospital providers do yet has none of the facts correct. I will concede that the EMT-Basic certification is rather...

  20. Starting A&P I in January

    203bravo replied to FuturePedRN2016's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree -- I constantly used my A&P book during Patho... Also a thing you might consider is that my program used the same text for A*P 1 and A*P 2.. if you rent it twice might as well buy

  21. A&P I & II + Microbiology for one semester

    203bravo replied to sunshine&shots's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm with heather --- how on earth can you take A&P 1 and 2 at the same time? If you are taking them one at a time in a 1/2 semester type course then I still wouldn't recommend taking them with...

  23. Can't get federal aid, best private loans?

    203bravo replied to Wrestler133's topic in General Students

    The issue is that the OP already has BS and has exceeded the number of hours allowable for federal loans at the Associate level degree. That's the reason that S(he) is being told that they can't...
