  1. I'm really getting nervous here!!!!

    SaraFL replied to rayk1021's topic in Florida Nursing

    Around Jacksonville that seems to be the case, at least from the people I talk to. One friend of mine is a LPN for hospice and she lost her job this month due to the phasing out. I can maybe see the...

  2. I don't care if you know someone whos had every disease that we talk about!

    SaraFL replied to Duice88's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I bet!

  3. Quick! UNF and unfinished pre-req's at time of application!

    SaraFL posted a topic in General Students

    Hoping I can get a speedy reply here... The website says that classes do NOT have to be finished at time of application, but they DO have to be done before the program starts. Will it hurt me,...

  4. Quick! UNF and unfinished pre-req's at time of application!

    SaraFL replied to SaraFL's topic in General Students

    Thanks so much Kristen! I finally heard back from UNF and they confirmed what you said - they calculate the GPA based on courses completed at that time. I am so

  5. I don't care if you know someone whos had every disease that we talk about!

    SaraFL replied to Duice88's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    OMG, yes! There was one girl in my A&P class that seemed to have had so many different diseases herself...she just had to pipe up. You could tell the instructor was like, "Um, yeah, well,...

  6. I left an interview not knowing what to think

    SaraFL replied to mlok's topic in General Nursing

    Remember to send a thank you note right away, and good luck!

  7. Anxiety: It's killing me!

    SaraFL replied to RadfordSN's topic in General Students

    Don't stop! You can make it happen for those 3-5 trips, whether than means scrounging for cab money, bribing another student, whatever. You are so close, you can do

  8. Is applying with no A&P on my transcript a bad idea?

    SaraFL replied to Ted D's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think it will depend on the school. At my local university, they require (I think) 2 or 3 of the 4 required science classes to be complete. You should check with the individual school but the worst...

  9. This is gonna be one heck of a semester!!!!!!

    SaraFL replied to amaxiechRN2011's topic in General Students

    That's kind of a mean comment about the Hair Club. And I don't know, kind of makes sense to me that a nurse should practice what she preaches (and I sure do need to lose a lot of weight!) But...

  10. How Far Would You Go?

    SaraFL replied to OCD_Mom's topic in General Students

    Is this a real life situation, or a

  11. FCCJ Summer 2010 hopefuls...

    SaraFL replied to SaraFL's topic in Florida Nursing

    I think that you should probably apply after you finish those classes, so apply in the summer to start in the fall. I think that you probably won't have enough points to be competitive if you don't...

  12. FCCJ Summer 2010 hopefuls...

    SaraFL replied to SaraFL's topic in Florida Nursing

    Thanks for the info

  13. I can't pay my bills

    SaraFL replied to Ninja Nurse's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I can't really think of anything flexible like that since you don't have a set schedule from your CNA job... Um...babysitting? Pet sitting? House sitting? Cleaning houses where the clients don't...

  14. My Final Countdown!!!!

    SaraFL replied to KathyRN2B's topic in General Students

    Wishing you lots of luck! I'm sure you'll do great, and I can't wait to be in your spot next year.

  15. What do i do?

    SaraFL replied to Aionlasting's topic in General Students

    If you can be accepted to a community college RN program, I would do that. If it's like mine, you get your RN with a 2 year degree, then you can go on to a university to get your Bachelors. I know...

  16. Dem' Bones (A&P Help)

    SaraFL replied to Kyla.ann's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That is such a great idea to use foam bones for practice! I wish I knew to do that when I took A&P. One thing that helped me was to photocopy the good drawings/diagrams from the book, then...

  17. ATI is a total rip-off

    SaraFL replied to NurseExorcist's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That really sucks. Just one more example of how companies try to take advantage of

  18. Anyone taking the TEAS recently?

    SaraFL replied to MSMIAMI's topic in Florida Nursing

    I am interested in this as well. Also wanted to say best of luck on your

  19. HELP!! I need guidance I saw someone cheating

    SaraFL replied to Brie80's topic in General Students

    Please correct me if I'm wrong, but this is not the only time that student will have to correctly calculate dosages, right? There will be many other times that she will be checked on and if she can't...

  20. melted down in my Clinical Lab today... left crying

    SaraFL replied to CeilingCat's topic in General Students

    I am really sorry for all that you are going through. It sounds really awful. Don't let them push you out of the program. You are obviously smart enough, you care enough, now you just have to get...

  21. FCCJ/FSCJ nursing program HELP!!!

    SaraFL replied to lashpo's topic in Florida Nursing

    For Human Growth & Development, take it online with Prof T. G. It's the easiest class I've ever taken yet I still learned. A&PII and Micro are very involved, I have taken them separately...

  22. Does this bother you.. or is it just me?

    SaraFL replied to rholman's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes that would bother me. I am like you, I am happy to help if I can, but for her to just lean over and look without any comment whatsoever is rude. I think you very nicely handled the

  23. Totally discouraged...

    SaraFL replied to CER022512's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think it will depend on what each individual school looks at. My community college pretty much just looks at your grades in the main nursing pre-req's (it's a points based application process). I...

  24. Should I go or not? Opinons please...

    SaraFL replied to AcousticFoodie's topic in General Students

    Just wanted to be another to say, "You're not old." I understand the feeling though. I'm 28, nowhere near where I thought I'd be by my age. I feel really old and like I've missed some crucial part...

  25. Sad about withdrawing from a class

    SaraFL replied to Soyrizo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've been there. You'll be OK. I try to think of it as an extra semester to save money, study difficult subjects, get the house organized, etc. Hope you're healing well from
