  1. Spring 2010 A&P 2

    thenameismac replied to jennylouwho's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Sounds simple enough. I use a planner as well (so as not to forget anything) but there are times (like today) when I sit down to do something and before I know it I realize I've been staring at the...

  2. CCBC or BCCC

    thenameismac replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I go to BCCC but not in the program yet. I don't know about the entrance exam but you do need to complete CHEM 103. I think both schools require you to be finished with your prerequisites before...

  3. Funny seizure patient cartoon...

    thenameismac replied to Larry77's topic in Nursing Humor

  4. Spring 2010 A&P 2

    thenameismac replied to jennylouwho's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am a little excited but scared at the same (fear that I will procrastinate as bad as last semester. I know I have the potential to learn anything and everything and be best I can be but ADD takes...

  5. BURNT OUT!!

    thenameismac replied to GeminiRN2007's topic in General Nursing

    I agree with what everyone else is saying. Nothing in life is ever easy but I am almost positive that you are having a greater impact on people's lives and making it better than, say, a cashier at...

  6. TORN

    thenameismac replied to airkuh22's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Although I am merely a student, I recommend doing the RN track. It doesn't seem like there is a reason why you CAN'T do it. I mean, if you do the LPN track you may have to be that for a certain...

  7. Entrance Test Anxiety

    thenameismac replied to survrgrl08's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am so there. I mean, I only have to take the NET but it's still a nightmare for me. What I am doing is studying everything and focusing on what I really don't know or understand. For example I...

  8. My school uses this textbook for AP1?

    thenameismac replied to TrinaCNA's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think the more resources the better. Using the stickies may be more beneficial than not. For example, say you're learning about muscles, the function, locations, yada yada yada. Using the...

    thenameismac replied to jennylouwho's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  11. Everyone Starting Nursing Courses Fall 2010

    thenameismac replied to guiltysins's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I know AP I & II go hand in hand. One is pretty broad things like where all of the bones, muscles, and everything are and generally what they do. The other gets more descriptive. At my school...

  12. Omg time expired on math protion of NET

    thenameismac replied to akadimkz's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It's going to be okay. I haven't taken either test (although I will take the NET once the test dates are posted) but I'm sure that it's not the end of the world. Once you find out what's on the HESI...

  13. Everyone Starting Nursing Courses Fall 2010

    thenameismac replied to guiltysins's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    *sigh* Wow. So I just read everyone's post and I guess I am just as hopeful. Just like 95% of the people that posted I am applying for Fall 2010. Next semester will be a full load including APII,...

    thenameismac replied to thenameismac's topic in Maryland Nursing

    How is BIO park? Where is that actually? This will be my fourth semester at BCCC then onto Coppin. I went to AACC for a year and a half. How is CCBC? I don't think that BCCC has enough resources...

  16. What to do with this empty bank account?

    thenameismac posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't know what to do. I have hit a brick wall. There aren't many scholarships available that I could use for Spring 2010. I don't qualify for any loans since I go to a community college that...

  17. Best way to study for NET or TEAS?

    thenameismac posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am looking to take the NET or TEAS very soon and I was wondering what was the best way to study for it. I have a few study books and it's honestly a lot of information. How did everyone manage?...

  18. Best way to study for NET or TEAS?

    thenameismac replied to thenameismac's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you for responding. I emailed the Nursing Coordinator at my school and they told me about the science section and I was going to study for that anyway but thanks for confirming that. I've been...

  19. Coppin State Nursing School Good?

    thenameismac replied to Cherish's topic in Maryland Nursing

    IzzytheRN08 that was an awesome response and I think you are absolutely right. No one should blame the school for them not passing Nursing school when in fact they really didn't utilize all of their...

  20. What to do with this empty bank account?

    thenameismac replied to thenameismac's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I only buy books from the bookstore I really have money to spend like that and know I will have some left over or of course I can't it anywhere else (which is very rare). However finderscheapers...

  21. What to do with this empty bank account?

    thenameismac replied to thenameismac's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Okay so I got a bit more information. So apparently my school is not accredited to receive loans from say Sallie Mae or the Stafford Loan and since I am young and independent I need a cosigner for a...

  22. Has anyone here gotten into nursing school with a 'B' in Anatomy?

    thenameismac replied to emily_ganshert's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I read this entire thread and I was encouraged, surprised, and got slightly depressed all in one sitting. Encouraged: Some people did fair in some classes and really well in others so that makes me...

  23. What to do with this empty bank account?

    thenameismac replied to thenameismac's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I forgot to mention that my bank stopped doing student loans as of November 30th. My school really sucks. It was them of course that told me that I didn't qualify for financial aid and they always...

  24. What to do with this empty bank account?

    thenameismac replied to thenameismac's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    These are all very good responses. Thanks a bunch. However, here's the thing: I don't have a husband. I am an independent student who works 40 hours a week. As stated before my pay barely covers...
