  1. Are University classes harder than CC classes?

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

    To me, I've found them equal but different. The classes at a CC are generally smaller, for instance. Does that make them easier? Sometimes if it's a class you're struggling with and the person who...

  2. please help i don't know where to start?

    frnzy replied to gibgib's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Welcome! I don't know how qualified I am to fully answer your questions since I'm not familiar with those specific schools. But I did have a couple questions for you that at least for me is a big part...

  3. Pre-nursing student asks, should I get the BSN?

    frnzy replied to frnzy's topic in Government, Military

    Thanks for all the advice guys! I'm taking a PCT class in the spring. I'm hoping to get a p/t job as a nurse's aid somewhere, so I can quit my full time day job to focus on getting my RN prereqs taken...

  4. Pre-nursing student asks, should I get the BSN?

    frnzy posted a topic in Government, Military

    Hi folks, Has this question been answered before? I'm probably going to sound like a real newbie here, which, of course, I am! I'm a pre-nursing student, and I've finished my first semester of...

  5. Imortance of Order of Prereqs

    frnzy replied to Justanotherday's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The first classes ~I~ would take would be the ones that are basic prereqs to get into real prereqs. Like let's say you need English 101 to get into Psych 101 (which is an actual nursing prereq at most...

  6. Pre-nursing student asks, should I get the BSN?

    frnzy replied to frnzy's topic in Government, Military

    Hey thanks! And I finally finished the whole sticky thread at the top of this forum and realized that was probably a better place to ask my questions.

  7. A&P 1 students,,,, How ya doing?

    frnzy replied to crazytonurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just got my grades. 4.0s across the board

  8. What to do with this empty bank account?

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

    Well I feel your pain about not qualifying for Pell grant money, but I'm surprised you don't qualify for the subsidized Stafford Loan or PLUS loan. I'm in the same boat with being a full time worker...

  9. help! filling out nursing school application

    frnzy replied to butterfly135's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    (I'm the "grammer queen" today.) You don't need the comma after "career" in the second sentence. In terms of style, I'd say keep everything in the same tense. Either present or future and keep out the...

  10. Taking A & P I again...any advice?

    frnzy replied to Ike Arumba's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    For me, I'd say it took me 4 study sessions to memorize each system. I made flash cards or studied my blanked-out lab manual (with the labels covered) at every possible moment. Preferably at least 30...

  11. Taking A & P I again...any advice?

    frnzy replied to Ike Arumba's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    When I took it, the lab portion was almost all memorization. Is that what you're having trouble with? For me the trick to memorization is all of those classic techniques of mnemonics and acronyms and...

  12. Resume Help Please!!!

    frnzy replied to bach09's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Is there a public library near you? I suggest calling them and finding out when/if they hold free resume help. Often, you can just go in and a reference librarian will help you format and correct...

  13. What to do with this empty bank account?

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

    1)Have you filled out the FAFSA for the current school year? 2)Do you qualify for the Stafford Loan (you find this out by filling out the FAFSA? 3)Do you have a credit card? 4)Can you apply for a...

  14. LPN or RN + rant

    frnzy replied to Zaneman's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    To keep your cost down, you'll want either a community college ADN or a Bachelor's program in your home state. None of the BSN programs I've looked into require a CNA. However, since they are BSN...

  15. OU Nursing vs. UMich Nursing

    frnzy replied to wbrogers's topic in Michigan Nursing

    What are your goals? Are you planning on going to school after you get your BSN? Where do you want to work when you're done with school? In theory, you can get the same job and pay if you get your RN...

  16. RN Prereqs

    frnzy replied to kimmy436's topic in General Students

    My local CC requires: (Basics) Anatomy, Math, Psychology, Health Living, CPR, Writing (the rest give you higher priority for admission) Physiology, Microbiology, Pharmacology, Human Growth and...

  17. LPN or RN + rant

    frnzy replied to Zaneman's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What area(s) of the country do you want to go to school

  18. What classes are you taking Spring 2010?

    frnzy replied to TamiLee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Exactly my strategy with my online Psych

  19. LPN or RN + rant

    frnzy replied to Zaneman's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't see why not go for the Paramedic first. After you start working, you could knock out all the nursing prereqs during the year after you graduate. Then apply to an "advanced standing"...

  20. Michigan State ADN-BSN?

    frnzy replied to amjowens's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Just yesterday I figured out that UM-Flint and UM are actually different schools. D'uh

  21. MSU BSN and ABSN

    frnzy replied to frnzy's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Thanks, PocketNurse, I think I now see the part of the website you're referring to. I guess I was looking for confirmation. I won't be applying until next fall, but I'm setting up my schedule to try...

  22. What classes are you taking Spring 2010?

    frnzy replied to TamiLee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    After talking with some other students at my CC, they said doing full time work, volunteering 10 hrs/week, and taking the three classes I'm signed up for shouldn't be any more difficult for me than...

  23. Are you getting a ADN or going straight to BSN ?

    frnzy replied to zrodriguez's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm starting to feel like I will take the ADN or BSN program depending entirely on who first accepts

  24. Happy, Nervous and Burnt out

    frnzy replied to rholman's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with itsmejuli. Unless there's some kind of scholarship you need to use up next semester or are planning a two-month vacation in europe for fall, I would definitely take a&p2 next semester...

  25. Doubting Myself

    frnzy replied to KatieP1088's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think that taking classes has made me more aware of my body in a good way. One of the things I like about class and volunteering in a hospital is being able to talk to other people when I ~am~...
