    GPA

    strawberryluv replied to JonB04's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Great job. If you went to my school and you took all your pre-reqs at the school you could have gotten in! My school allows automatic admittance to the nursing program if you get atleast a 3.2 GPA for...

    Chem was a cakewalk until....

    strawberryluv replied to SwampCat's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Its okay. Its only one course. I struggled in chem lab too. I think I made out with a B in chem lab luckily its only a 1-credit course so I'm not moping over it

    strawberryluv replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congratulations! I have yet to find out my chemistry grade though I doubt its going to be anything less than a B. I, too, have struggled in chem lab and the lecture course. I know for sure I am...

    strawberryluv replied to MzTayTay's topic in General Students

    I am proud to be a nursing student, I am also in my school's nursing program even though I am a freshmen. My school actually chose the nursing students straight from high school because they wanted to...

    Why Do Nursing Instructors Rely So Heavily On PowerPoints To Teach?

    strawberryluv replied to SarahMaria's topic in General Students

    I actually like power points. My biology teacher has been proven quite good at presenting the material via power point. Along the way, she would read off of it and elaborate on each point on the...

    Looking to become a nurse

    strawberryluv replied to Tlong24's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    2.12 GPA is tough. Its essential C level work and I don't think many RN programs accept C students. There is just an influx of students and very little availability of seats in most programs these...

    Would you retake a course if you got a B, or only if you got a C or less?

    strawberryluv replied to Samian Q's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If I got a C or less, I would definitely consider retaking the course because my nursing pre-requisities are really important for my program. I am already in the nursing program though and they...

    strawberryluv replied to poisenberrie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My university looks at the overall GPA. I wish it went by only the science GPA because then I would be so much more less

    New student Winter Term/Evaluate Class Load

    strawberryluv replied to saucychaucy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you haven't been back from school in a while then I suggest a maximum of 12-13 credits which is the min. credits for a full-time student to take. I think 13 credits should be fine especially since...

    Studying for 25 hours......

    strawberryluv replied to Darkpk55's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Get some sleep. You can't possible concentrate if you don't sleep maybe thats why you can't understand this one algebra problem. Also, if you are in 11th grade then you probably aren't a pre-nursing...

    Is it smart to take Physio and microbio at the same time?

    strawberryluv replied to toinks's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Take the courses separately since science is pretty hard for most people and taking two science courses is extremely difficult even for me. I get good

    Help me please

    strawberryluv replied to KaBooMx's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would have never try to take A&P over the summer. This is a course that you will need for the rest of your nursing career and taking it in a compact summer session doesn't seem logical to me....

    how does the grading system work at your college?

    strawberryluv replied to stefanyjoy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just found out what the grading system for the B+ and B's were for Rutgers University. 90-100% A 85-89% B+ 80-84% B 75-79% C+ Anything lower than 74%=

    Chemistry requirement on it's way out?

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

    Chemistry is a pre-req at my school. I have heard that it is important for when I take pharmacology as a 3rd year nursing student. :/. If your school requires it then take it. I don't see why the...

    Is anyone else quitting their job one they enter the nursing program?

    strawberryluv replied to mybrowneyedgirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am not a single mom but I do plan on not working at all when I start clinicals next year. I have heard from a friend who has a cousin in the nursing program of my university that the nursing...

    strawberryluv replied to egibson's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am going to university with state aid and I am not ashamed of it. My parent doesn't make enough to support me through college for all 4 years even if its a local university. The way I see it is if I...

    Should I make a switch??

    strawberryluv replied to stampede122's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If I were in your shoes, I would still get that BSN. There is always going to be a need for nurses whether its in your state or in some other state. I am sure other parts of the U.S. are in need of...

    Is it fair to have a take home mutiple choice exam for A&P1?

    strawberryluv replied to Copperismydog's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Chicagoing, I do not believe I denied my FACT of the matter of judging her. If you were reading my post thoroughly, I said it TWICE that I did judge her. I did not deny that but I'm telling you,...

    Is it fair to have a take home mutiple choice exam for A&P1?

    strawberryluv replied to Copperismydog's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am saying she is jealous in the definition that she is being overly competent over others. Meaning, if she is having a high grade she wants to make sure everyone else doesn't even the ones who are...

    Is it fair to have a take home mutiple choice exam for A&P1?

    strawberryluv replied to Copperismydog's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think you should just let it go. Its not up to you to judge the level of competency for the class. Moreover, just because some people will get a good grade (as you will, I'm sure) doesn't mean you...

    Nclex Pass rate for your school

    strawberryluv replied to CNM2B201?'s topic in General Students

    I think a school with an NCLEX pass rate that is lower than 84% should not be considered EVER. Nclex pass rates ARE a big deal because it tells you HOW great the program is at teaching its students to...

    Next Semesters Schedule

    strawberryluv replied to mausten's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Doesn't everyone take classes they don't know anything about? Anyway, four classes is not difficult at all. I think that even 5 classes is the new standard full-time load for most university students....
