    I called and got an answer: Decisions will be at

  2. Emory applicant for 2011

    Shiningstar05 replied to williamhart1984's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    :uhoh21: I went as far as looking at the last few years of applicants on Allnurses to see around what time they found out! But yes, I was told that they post the "not accepted" decisions also on OPUS....

  3. Emory applicant for 2011

    Shiningstar05 replied to williamhart1984's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes, this wait is driving me crazy now. I can barely focus in my Organic Chem class as the days have been getting closer and closer to the 15th

  4. Emory applicant for 2011

    Shiningstar05 replied to williamhart1984's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    oaktown2, I really enjoyed the orientation because it was very thorough, and any questions you may have had were sure to be answered by either the faculty or actual nursing students. We received the...

  5. Emory applicant for 2011

    Shiningstar05 replied to williamhart1984's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I submitted my application for BSN earlier this week, and I have completed all but 2 of the pre-reqs. I will be finished with General Chem next week, and will be taking my last pre-req (Organic Chem)...

  6. Nursing School Interview

    Shiningstar05 replied to Brittany86's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Here are some typical questions that I think and found that would be asked: Why do you want to be a nurse? What are your career goals? How do you manage stress? What are the requirements for a person...

  7. Anatomy & Physiology: experiences?

    Shiningstar05 replied to Meesterjojo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't think the material is "easier." But for me, A&P I was new and required a new way to grasp and understand the information, therefore a new way of learning how to study. Once you get into...

  8. Anatomy & Physiology: experiences?

    Shiningstar05 replied to Meesterjojo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    We had to know all of them, but we were only tested on 100 that my teacher randomly chose. Learning the bones was the hardest in my opinion, but I still made a 96 (it was alotttttttt of studying. You...

  9. Anatomy & Physiology: experiences?

    Shiningstar05 replied to Meesterjojo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    All schools and professors may do things a little different, but none of my professors thus far have had a problem with me recording the lectures... they even encourage it! I made a high B in Anatomy...

  10. Anatomy & Physiology: experiences?

    Shiningstar05 replied to Meesterjojo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The lab portion for me was the easiest because I took pictures of the lab models, and loaded them on my computer to study from. Coloring books helped me with learning the bones, but I would definitely...

  11. Nervous about not getting in...

    Shiningstar05 replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would highly recommend taking a looking at the websites of the schools you are interested in to view their different programs and information. In the typical MSN program, an undergraduate degree is...

  12. Nervous about not getting in...

    Shiningstar05 replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think it depends on your expectations for your future and what you want to do with your degree. I plan on attaining my BSN and then eventually my Master's. So, I would apply to all the colleges and...

  13. What is statistics like?

    Shiningstar05 replied to luv2garden's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think it has a lot do with the professor, but overall, I had a good experience and got an A. My teacher let us use all of our notes during tests and quizzes. The final was worth a chunk of our...

  14. Needing BSN Admissions Advice

    Shiningstar05 replied to RB1980's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It all depends on the school you attend as the admission requirements are different. But generally, the fact that you have already obtained a degree is looked at positively. I would focus on your...

  15. Microbiology, Summer 2010

    Shiningstar05 replied to Anoetos's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I start Micro in a week and a half! I've been reviewing the first few pages of the chapter we will begin and I am kind of nervous. Only because I will be taking 3 other classes with Micro for a 10...

  16. Should I Take Micro and AP 2 at the same time?

    Shiningstar05 replied to tryingtobeanurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Most digital recorders come with a USB cable that allows you to plug it into your computer...like you would a flash drive. If you have iTunes on your computer, you can open up your files to listen to...

  17. Should I Take Micro and AP 2 at the same time?

    Shiningstar05 replied to tryingtobeanurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am also on a quarter system and do not work or have children. I took 4 classes (A&P II, Statistics, and 2 histories) last quarter and got straight As. What helps me is staying calm, doing my...

  19. A and P Drama

    Shiningstar05 replied to Niki_lccc_Stluke's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It may be time consuming, but I record all my lectures, type out my notes, use flashcards, anatomy coloring books, I take digital photos of the anatomy models in class, answer the questions at the end...

  20. High School Student who needs advice :)

    Shiningstar05 replied to Highschoolfuturenurs's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Children's Healthcare of Atlanta and some other affiliated hospitals with Emory have "Volunteen" programs for the summer (for ages 15-18). Get as much volunteer opportunities and community service as...

  21. Those dreaded fractions....

    Shiningstar05 replied to guest042302019's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks! I'm taking statistics right now and plan on taking Chem in a few months. I think I used to use the site when I was in high school. It's

  22. Just a rant

    Shiningstar05 replied to cicatrixx15's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It's always funny to see these boards go in a direction by people who are confrontational or seem bitter about something. They often lose the purpose of the intention of the poster with unnecessary...

  23. Unsupportive Family

    Shiningstar05 replied to slmmarsh's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    At first, my mother was not supportive of me choosing nursing and insisted on pharmacy school. She was very angry, actually. She told me that I don't have the attitude to care for people, and nursing...

  24. Read With Speed

    Shiningstar05 replied to guest042302019's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm going to look into it because it takes me hours to read one chapter in my A&P book. In a few days, I will begin a new quarter taking 4 courses which includes A&P II. It's crucial that I...

  25. Unfriendly and unsupportive fellow students...

    Shiningstar05 replied to dollface6's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I remember my first A&P class feeling this way, and I was VERY emotional about it that I cried after class and dreaded attending. My boyfriend was very supportive and reassured me that I wasn't...
