  1. Has anyone taken the NET recently?

    marcieg posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Has anyone recently taken the NET (Nursing Entrance Test)? How much of it was regular math and was there any algebra?

  2. Respritory therapy

    marcieg replied to dark40's topic in General Nursing

    Airis, I wonder-did you have any healthcare experience before you went into the RT program? It's sounds like radiology will work out better for you. I have worked in hospice as an aide for 4 years...

  3. Monroe County Community College- RT or Nursing students?

    marcieg posted a topic in Michigan Nursing

    Hi all, I am looking into the Respiratory Therapy and the Nursing program at MCCC, wondering if there were any other appliciants or students here? What do you know about MCCC? What's the amount of...

  4. Monroe County Community College- RT or Nursing students?

    marcieg replied to marcieg's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Thanks for the info. I am much more interested in the RT program. It has been a good 17 years since I took the ACT, lol. I feel like I have been burned on nursing programs too many times now anyway...

  5. Respritory therapy

    marcieg replied to dark40's topic in General Nursing

    Kharing, I have a couple of questions for you, if you don't mind. Were you able to work while you were attending school, and if you did, was it related to RT?

  6. Any Nursing Assistants uncertified?

    marcieg replied to dream2life07's topic in Michigan Nursing

    You might also look into being a home health aide, I have been one on and off for about 12 years, and I have never been certified as a CNA. The hours are very flexible and you also get milage...

  7. how did you pay the bills during school? Hubby freaking out!

    marcieg posted a topic in General Nursing

    I am going to start my actual nursing classes in September 2006, and my husband is freaking out (to put it mildly). He knew this was coming, and now that I have been able to find out what semester for...

  8. looking for the silver lining

    marcieg posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow, do I feel stupid... I had been taking my pre-reqs at community college (with a 2 year waitlist for their ADN program). I was accepted into a private college for the BSN program after months of...

  9. looking for the silver lining

    marcieg replied to marcieg's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The difference is the tuition costs between the community college and the private college- 340.00 a credit hour (jumping to 381.00 when nursing classes begin) vs. 67.00. I can take 5 credits at the CC...

  10. how did you pay the bills during school? Hubby freaking out!

    marcieg replied to marcieg's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks everyone, I will have my husband read all these too. Unfortunately, there is basically nothing else to cut back. We rarely eat out, cell phones are a necessity for our jobs, we are both on the...

  11. Madonna University in Michigan

    marcieg posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Is anyone else going through the application process at Madonna in Livonia? I have spoke to the Admissions director twice now and both time she confirmed that I have been accepted- but they haven't...

  12. Madonna University in Michigan

    marcieg replied to marcieg's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for everyone's input. I was accepted into the BSN program, and I will start Madonna in the fall, but I will still be working on pre-reqs for a couple more semesters. I think no matter where...

  13. Summer/Fall 05-what are you doing?

  14. which is better? 2 or 4 year RN for SE MI

    marcieg replied to dtw2mom's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I live in SE Michigan, I found that I will finish my 4 yr program in about the same amount of time as an ADN program with the waitlist at my local CC. I am choosing to go to a private school, so that...

  15. A+P 1 vs. A+P 2

    marcieg replied to BoonersmomRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    At our school, we haveI and II of them combined into a 15 week "anatomy boot camp hell" (instructors words on the first night of class) and the level has stayed the same throughout- fascinating but...

  16. Anyone heard from Madonna?

    marcieg posted a topic in Michigan Nursing

    I talked to the Admissions director twice, and both times she said I was admitted, but I still haven't recievied anything "official" in the mail or otherwise- it is going on a few weeks now. Anyone...

  18. Anyone heard from Madonna?

    marcieg replied to marcieg's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Agggh, no. I called AGAIN, and talked to the admissions counselor. This is a little confusing, but I had taken the NET in January and was only eligible for probationary admission. I said I would just...

    marcieg replied to marcieg's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Thanks, I am starting to get a little

    marcieg replied to CarolineRn's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I live here in Ann Arbor, and I don't work at either, but I do work with a lot of RN's ( I am still a student) and what I have heard since I have lived here is that if you need major techinical things...

  21. A&P 1: The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club

    marcieg replied to Fun2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes, Fun, we were at a cadaver lab. Not to gross anyone out, but we not only got to see, but touch and explore a little bit (cadavers were already dissected, we didn't do any of that) but the organs,...

  22. A&P 1: The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club

    marcieg replied to Fun2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had the most amazing field trip last night! Our A&P instructor also teaches Gross Anatomy to first year med students, so we got to go to the Gross Anatomy lab. Wow. I can't even describe it. It...

  23. A&P 1: The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club

    marcieg replied to Fun2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I start Monday night- our school crams A&P 1 and 2 all into one semester! We really didn't have many books that were required to buy either, just the text and lab manual. I did buy the coloring...

    marcieg posted a topic in Michigan Nursing

    Is there anyone on the waitlist for the RN program? How long is it, and how soon after you apply do you find out where you are on the list? If you are in the program, how long did you have to wait...
