  1. unbelievable... in today's world

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to ilmbg's topic in General Nursing

    Seems like the equivalent of driving without a seatbelt to me. Certainly easier but oh, so

  2. Question about A&P at CSN, NSC, UNLV

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to melement's topic in Nevada Nursing

    I took all of my A/P courses at CSN and had a good enough experience, but honestly I thought that it was harder to learn on the cadavers than on the models. Unless you are working solo and get a...

  3. My personal ADN vs BSN debate in Las Vegas

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to moneyline702's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Sorry to say I've heard the same thing. At a recent ER visit I was told that my ADN would be useless, that if one of them DOES get hired, the drs will ask for their patients to not be placed with...

  5. Am I wasting my time applying to these colleges?

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to TeeGuneys23's topic in General Nursing

    Since when are community colleges concerned about SAT scores? I'd say that if the school specifically tells you that you are not qualified for their program, don't apply. But DO apply for the long...

  6. CSN Spring 2010 New Students

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to SockMonkey.ecb's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Hi!!! I have NOT bought my books yet, but they are in. I have been in the bookstore 3 times now asking if financial aid has submitted my book award yet and they haven't. It's supposed to come early...

  7. How do I read a nursing textbook?

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to SockMonkey.ecb's topic in General Students

    thanks everyone. unfortunately it was made very clear to us at orientation that the books would be our best friend, that lecture is supposed to supplement the readings and not vice-versa. the goal...

  8. Good morning allnurses.com

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to moneyline702's topic in Nevada Nursing

    I applied with 31 points. From what I've heard through the grapevine, 26 was the cutoff for full-time and 24 was the cutoff for part-time. But if you go to health science advisement they have a list...

  9. CSN Full-time Question

    SockMonkey.ecb posted a topic in Nevada Nursing

    I heard through a friend that if you are in the full time program, that there is a form you can fill out at financial aid so that you are deemed a full-time student even though the program is only 8...

  10. Shower question about Canadian hospitals.

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to futureRN_Anastasia's topic in International Nursing

    Cover up with a lab coat until you get into your shower and keep an extra pair of old Crocs in your trunk to wear into the house! Not a huge concern, certainly not one that should deter you from a...

  11. Resume-worked at same employer 2 different times

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to rileygrl11's topic in General Nursing

    I've had the same experience working for the same place at two different spans of time. That's exactly what I did- put two separate dates in the one spot for employment. When asked about it at my...

  12. Kaplan College New LPN program

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to 2ndCareerLV's topic in School, College Programs

    Just to throw this out there.... There is a huge misconception about CSN. A LOT of people seem to think that they hold a wait list, so if they go there, they will be waiting X amount of time to start...

  13. CSN Full-time Question

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to SockMonkey.ecb's topic in Nevada Nursing

    I don't really have an option. My youngest is still in daycare and I have to be a full-time student to keep her spot. She was on a huge waitlist to get in and only parents who work/go to school...

  15. I Failed the TEAS test again/Depressed

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to EricaDumas09's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well, I wish I could tell you you're smart enough to pass, but I don't know you! But I will tell you this- there are a lot of really smart people who don't pass the first go round. My first instinct...

  16. I Failed the TEAS test again/Depressed

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to EricaDumas09's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hmm, that's interesting, because I didn't think the TEAS test was based on common sense at all. In fact, my best friend has a 4.0 and only got a 76 on the TEAS. One of the perils of this test is...

  17. Alternate for CSN Part time track.

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to JanellN's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Oh, I think there's always a couple of people who get to this point and say, "Eh, I think I'll do something else!" I'm sure you'll end up a student

  20. Alternate for CSN Part time track.

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to JanellN's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Take a deep breath, Registered Nut. Call them tomorrow. I have to say that I think it's pretty crappy that they don't call all the applicants whether they were accepted or not. I really thought...

  21. Spring 2010 CSN ADN Program

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to anshra1986's topic in Nevada Nursing

    From what I understand, when they get down to the lowest points they accept and they have a ton of applicants with that number of points, the accepted applicants are chosen by

  23. Spring 2010 CSN ADN Program

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to anshra1986's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Registered Nut- I really don't know. My friend who was accepted to part time got her call at 8:30, I got in to full-time and I got my call at 9:40. And we're both at the beginning of the alphabet....

  24. Spring 2010 CSN ADN Program

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to anshra1986's topic in Nevada Nursing

    I just read on another thread that a part-timer got a call just a bit ago to say she's an alternate. Give it the evening, I know it's hard! Maybe it's something silly like they mis-dialed your...

    SockMonkey.ecb replied to JanellN's topic in Nevada Nursing

    A friend of mine who posts on here is in the program and was an alternate last semester! Don't lose faith! There's still an excellent chance! So when did they say they would let you know for
