  1. MSU BSN and ABSN

    frnzy posted a topic in Michigan Nursing

    Hi all (my first new thread here!) Does anyone know if you can be enrolled for the next semester or be in progress in a couple of the prerequisites at the same time you apply to either the traditional...

  2. Choice of clinical site for PCT class

    frnzy posted a topic in General Nursing

    Pre-Nursing student here. I have an opportunity to choose between three hospital wards to do my PCT clinicals. Does anyone have any insight or suggestions as to what I should consider in making my...

    Thanks for the reply roma4204. I appreciate your

  4. Best days/times to volunteer in ER for pre-nursing student

    frnzy posted a topic in Emergency

    Greetings! I will shortly be signing up for a 4-hour block of time to volunteer at a hospital as a student. My question for y'all is what days/times would you recommend I put in for if I can get...

  5. Best days/times to volunteer in ER for pre-nursing student

    frnzy replied to frnzy's topic in Emergency

    I called the department, and the nurse on the phone recommended me any night from 8-midnight. She said that if I was the kind of person who wanted to volunteer and learn (which I am!), then there...

  6. Volunteering......Good or Bad??

    frnzy replied to nursingstudent221's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I also cannot think of anything bad about volunteering. I say go for it and be eager to

  7. Feedback & Advice about my personal statement

    frnzy replied to KRomney's topic in General Students

    I'm a comma nazi and have some other run-on sentence, grammer and stylistic advice. But it's just my advice, take it or leave it. I also suggest perhaps getting an English major or maybe your local...

  8. Anyone applying for LCC's Nursing program this spring?

    frnzy replied to HomeGrownMichiganRN's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I know 71 won't make the cut, there's so many people that applied last year with more points than that that didn't get into the program. And their points have probably only gone up in the past year. I...

  9. Anyone applying for LCC's Nursing program this spring?

    frnzy replied to HomeGrownMichiganRN's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Hi Crystal, I am! But as I think I will only have 69-71 points for their traditional program, it would take a miracle for me to get accepted. Next year, tho, I know I'll make it in. Unless they...

  10. Best days/times to volunteer in ER for pre-nursing student

    frnzy replied to frnzy's topic in Emergency

    Thanks for all the great replies! I feel fine volunteering Fri/Sat from midnight-4 am or something, but I'm just worried about it being too hectic and that I'd just be in the way. It's interesting to...

  11. No Worker Left Behind

    frnzy replied to OnlyByHisGrace's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I spoke with a representative recently. His suggestion was once you are accepted into a Nursing program, whenever that is when you have an acceptance letter, go to your local MichiganWorks! office and...

  12. "A" is for Anatomy!!

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

    My experience was the same as yours. I got 100s on all the lab tests. I didn't do as well in the lecture portions. I'm a little bit more worried about Physiology since there must be less rote...

  13. How much is school costing you?

    frnzy replied to tbell2's topic in General Students

    Hmm. I've always been told by financial advisors that student debt isn't forgiven in bankruptcy. Unless they put their tuition on credit

  14. Volunteering

    frnzy replied to Cayles1102's topic in Michigan Nursing

    UM-Flint? Does that mean you are located closer to Flint or Ann Arbor? If you're in Flint, I think UM-Flint works a lot with Hurley. I personally would contact the nursing program at UM-Flint and ask...

  15. A&P Help

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

    go to ratemyprofessors.com and read what previous students have said about that specific instructor teaching that specific course. Look for things like "his lab tests come straight from the manual" or...

  16. What to do, What to do??

    frnzy replied to Andrew12's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Ok, I'm sorry for overreacting. I'm glad you're ok. Don't give up though. It is next to impossible it seems to get into an RN program right now. I'll be applying next year, but I'm trying to prepare...

  17. What to do, What to do??

    frnzy replied to Andrew12's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I reread your original post. I find this troubling: "denial from school and life" Not to make a mountain out of a molehill here, but are you okay? "Denial from life"? It sounds like you've had a rough...

  18. Volunteer Work / Extracurriculars

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

    Working full-time, taking prereqs and volunteering all at the same time is hard. But you *can* do it. Even if it's just 10 hours/month driving blood across town for the red cross. Wanna know what my...

  19. Please share your experiences! And what type of program should I apply/aim for?

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

    Some of the BSN programs I've looked into are 3-yr things. But more than a couple are 4-5 semesters (2 years). The Freshman and Sophomore years in these programs are gen ed (like writing and psych)...

  20. What to do, What to do??

    frnzy replied to Andrew12's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    At the CC I'm trying to get to in a Great Lakes state, most applicants have above a 3.5 at least in their nursing prereqs. 2.5 is the minimum required to apply. Half of my anatomy class was people...

  21. Please share your experiences! And what type of program should I apply/aim for?

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

    Have you looked at traditional BSN programs? I've been looking at some in my state that would take about the same amount of time as an ADN program, but I'd have the BSN at the end instead of an...

  22. ok,I need major advice on my major.

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

    Do you volunteer? I'd say go pre-vet or maybe Biology, but volunteer right now at a shelter. It's sad to put a lot of companion animals down, but it's usually so much better for them when they're...

  23. Career advice needed

    frnzy replied to bgood1967's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Is this the first time in a long time that you've taken math? Have you ever taken algebra before? If not, I wouldn't give up personally. Math can be tricky. I know my school's math resources includes...

  24. So Confused! MA to BSN to MSN hopefull but where in the heck do I start??

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

    I'm sure you must be feeling anxiety right now about choosing the "right" path. But maybe you already know that in so much of life, there isn't just one right path. My feeling is that if I were in...

  25. Are University classes harder than CC classes?

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

    Excellent example of why a smaller class can be more advantageous!! [Though ~if~ you really kiss prestigious Uni professor's hiney (if they don't moonlight at the CC, I mean) that's a LOR that can...
