  1. depressed... nursing program

    It'll all depend on the school. I know some schools only allow you to retake one class, but I know my school allows us to retake all of our pre-req classes as often as we need to/want to. Good luck, I...
  2. How did you get through the waiting?

    I'm not able to apply until this semester ends, because they have to have the final grades for this semester to calculate everything. But waiting to apply is hard enough I can't even begin to imagine...
  3. Fall 2011 Hopefuls

    I can't give any advice on the HESI because we don't have to take it until we one semester into the program. But I'm a Fall 2011 hopeful! I'm doing the BSN program, and in the Spring I will finish the...
  4. I've had a Littmann II Classic SE but I'm wanting to upgrade. I just don't know if I want a Littmann Cardiology III or a Littmann Master Cardiology III. Any suggestions??? I know they're both good so...

    Thanks. I will definitely request and ask for a Cardio 3 for my birthday that is coming
  6. I'm not a nurse yet, but I do have my CNA and I'm in school working on my BSN. To make a long story short, an old co-worker of mine landed me a job interview that I have tomorrow. She put in a great...

  9. Littmann Cardio III or Master Cardio???

    Thanks!! Have you noticed that the second head picks up extra sounds when its not being used? I think that's what I'm most worried about; it making it more difficult to hear what I'm actually...

  11. Should I Add a Class?!

    Hey Everyone!! As always you are all super helpful, and as always I have another question and need some advice. I'm going be taking: Physiology, Philosophy, Composition, and Life Span Development. If...
  12. How did (is) A&P1 go for you?

    My school seperates a and p into two seperate classes. one anatomy and one physiology. i took my anatomy this summer and it was HORRIBLE!!!! The professor had gone to medical school and is use to...
  13. Volunteer while in school?

    I volunteer every week in the ER and on the oncology floor. And I love every second of it. It'll look good on your resume and when applying to nursing school for clinicals if they have a spot for it,...
  14. Oncology Volunteer

    I landed a volunteer position on the Oncology floor at one of my local hospitals while I attend school. I've been around cancer since I was young and most of my family has had cancer. My dream job...
  15. Number ONE on waitlist. So frustrating

    I know its frustrating. There was a girl who was waitlist number 7, and she found out first thing this morning that she got in. So there's still hope
  16. Be Aware: Don't Go into Nursing

    Exactly its not just nursing. My best friend graduated in May with a degree that would qualify her for basically any position but she's stuck working a job that has nothing to do with her degree. And...
  17. Looking for the PERFECT ink pen ;)

    So I changed my mind. Parkersburg never let me down for a while and now they're always failing on me. So I tried a Zebra F-301 fine and I LOVE it!!!! I was a little worried about it not being...
  18. Volunteer Cuddling

    I've been waiting over 2 years for a volunteer cuddling position to open up I had the chance a year ago but my Army training was at the same time so I missed it. Hopefully one of these days a...
  19. Looking for the PERFECT ink pen ;)

    Parker pens are my favorite. They're a little more expensive and I don't get the really expensive ones but the ones that are sold are Wal-Mart and such. No one touches my pen but I always carry a few...
  20. CNA License Expired

    I don't know where else to put this so I thought I would put it here. I'm a pre-nursing student, and I had my CNA certification but I let it get expired. Does anyone know how to renew it? I know...
  21. Should I Apply???

    To be guaranteed acceptance into my schools nursing program you need to have at least a 3.45 and sometimes a 3.5 My current GPA is sitting at a 3.40 I don't handle rejection very well so I'm afraid...
  22. One Binder or Many?

    If you do use one for all the classes definitely have it really divided up so it's super organized. That's what I'm going do for the first time in a very long time because even though I've always used...
  23. Should I Apply???

    That's what I'm debating. I'm just frustrated because my mom went and told everyone I start clinicals when I haven't even applied or been accepted yet so there's all kinds of correcting to do. She has...
  24. Should I Apply???

    To clarify. I have the minimum GPA required to apply to the program (which is a 3.0) very easily. But because it is so competitive the lowest GPA that usually gets accepted is between a 3.45 - 3.5,...
  25. What's the minimum GPA requirement to be accepted into the nursing program at your school? My schools minimum GPA to apply is a 3.0 but to actually get accepted in the ASN program we have to have at...
