  1. Hello All (again!)

    Hello everyone. I am back after a year away- I didn't get into a BSN program and got very discouraged, so I switched my degree to Bio and just have a year left. It's discouraging that I have to take a few classes over because the jr. college/lower le...
  2. Plantar fasciitis--it's killing me!!

    oh my gosh, I hate that, if I'm half asleep I just fall back in bed.. If i'm awake, i try to stretch it a bit first.. but for about five minutes I walk around like I've been riding a horse for a week straight. no fun.
  3. So I think that's it for nursing for me. I'm not one to retake classes over and over until I get a 4.0 because I think that's a waste of time.. I think I will go and finish a Science degree, not sure what yet. If I'm still interested in Nursing, I mi...
  4. I didn't get into UTSAHSC BSN program..

  5. I didn't get into UTSAHSC BSN program..

    Well, first off, my backup plan (Now real plan haha) is to get a BS in Bio and then go from there. Thank you all so much for your support, but I do not have the patience to apply to other places and be on waiting lists. Also, I have about 80 hrs, I...
  6. CNA quick question

    Hello Friends! I haven't posted here in month d/t schedule, etc But, if I don't get into a BSN program for the fall, I'm thinking of becoming a CNA and doing that while I finish a science degree. Question is, Do I find a program and get certified on...

  9. Rant: Gpa

    I'm just really frustrated right now! I've applied to UTHSC in San Antonio tx with a 3.4 prereq gpa. I pretty much know I won't get in. It just frustrates the hell out of me because I know I am worth more than a damn number. Plus, I talk to peopl...

    thanks so much, really helps and calms my nerves a bit!!
  11. Do you worry you won't get accepted?

    OMG YES!? Are you kidding!! I'm applying to UT in San Antonio, TX with a 3.419 and think I will get laughed at. I think it's ridiculous how high the standards are, and how there is such a shortage of nurses, but a HUGE surplus of extremely intellige...
  12. nursing school at UTHSC in San Antonio

    hey, I'm going to try to bump this in hopes of getting more information on this school from alumns!!! I'm so confused about this school.. I hear more mediocre reviews than good.. If anyone has any info, please let me know!
  13. Radiology?

    This might be going out on a limb, but could anyone tell me anything about BS degrees in Radiology? I have looked into it and they seem to be very scarce. I am applying to BS Nursing programs at the end of this semester but I've suddenly found mysel...
  14. Radiology?

    Thank you everyone so much- I really wasn't expecting to get any responses. My head is swimming in end-of-semester assignments but I'm trying to put aside some time to really research this- thanks a ton!
  15. Ever heard of it? I nannied this weekend for a three year old (4 in nov) that has been diagnosed with this disorder. Only abnormal developments I observed were that he was probably at 18 months give or take verbally and he would shake hands at side...
  16. Pervasive Developmental Disorder

    Hello! I am the Original Poster and since I still receive updates via email I thought I would follow up on my personal story- I reported the family to CPS simply for the unsanitary state of the house. I stopped working for them because I came to the...
  17. Gossiping and COMPLAINING!
  18. Car Seat Stories or information?

    Hello! Unrestrained children is one of my biggest pet peeves!! My dad was a police officer, my brothers a Fire Chief, and my niece is seven and is STILL in a car seat. I get eye rolls and laughs, but I don't care. Technically she can sit it in unt...
  19. ER Pet Peeves

    I agree with you and you probably read my post correctly, I might have not explained it clearly!
  20. ER Pet Peeves

    I didn't say either of those things.. that I didn't pay my bill nor that I went because I couldn't afford the regular doctor. I was making a point that there should be a little empathy for uninsured pts because there are a million different circumst...
  21. ER Pet Peeves

    I know policies regarding pregnancy tests. I was saying that they were unprofessional and didn't acknowledge any of my concerns. Their remarks were innappropriate and do not warrant any sort of defense. I didn't go into detail on the other issue but...

  23. This article insults nursing as a lower skilled job

    I didnt' mean to insult anyone, I was just making a point and referenced personal experiences. :kiss Didn't mean to bring up the ASN vs BSN which is a taboo on this site, but at the same time, I want to proud of the fact that I went the longer route...
  24. This article insults nursing as a lower skilled job

    I'm earning my BSN and I can tell you right now I'll never be paid what I am worth. And I'm a bit insulted when people tell me they can get "degree" in two years. Can you get your RN in two years? Yes, go ahead, but it's not a BS.
