  3. A&P Coloring Book

    MauriceRC replied to mangopeach's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I like flashcards because they were easier to throw in my purse and study during short down times, like on the bus or waiting in

  4. cheating classmates!

    MauriceRC replied to moma8gma1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I see people cheating all the time on their homework. It's irritating but as long as they don't involve me I try not to get my feathers ruffled. I figure if they don't know the material well enough to...

  6. MN Program Interviews

    MauriceRC replied to Annalin81's topic in General Nursing

    That must be so frustrating about your lifespan psych class! For that reason, I am so glad they look at more than just gpa in determining admissions. My lifespan class was a total walk in the park and...

  7. Nursing Schools in Minnesota

    MauriceRC replied to nursingschool?!?'s topic in General Nursing

    Yeah, most nursing schools are hard to get into but if you're willing to go to a for-profit school you'll increase your chances. Globe University/Minnesota School of Business has a nursing program and...

  8. RN babysiting gig gone south

    MauriceRC replied to RNnbakes's topic in General Nursing

    I definitely think she should have stayed with the kid. I think it's one thing for a parent to leave their own child home alone for a couple minutes while they run an errand, but it's a totally...

  9. New to nursing, advice?

    MauriceRC replied to sajaminneapolis's topic in General Nursing

    I am from the Twin Cities and, to the best of my knowledge, there are not a lot of LPN jobs around here. I know three LPNs who had lots of CNA experience but still couldn't find a job around here. All...

  10. Normandale Community College Nursing Program (NLN score)

    MauriceRC replied to rit3ousk155's topic in General Nursing

    I am still waiting to hear from them, too. I got a 134 on my NLN and my gpa is 3.7 BUT I haven't taken any classes at Normandale and I heard they give priority to current/previous students. I read...

    MauriceRC replied to studentdan's topic in General Nursing

    I told an MD ex-boyfriend (we're still good friends) that I wanted to be a nurse and he said "One good nurse is worth 10 good doctors" I love when doctors love

  12. How to become more marketable to new medical center

    MauriceRC posted a topic in General Nursing

    In February 2011 a new medical center will be completed only five minutes away from where I live! Yay! I won't be finished with nursing school by then, but I'll be a CNA (because that's needed to...

  13. How to become more marketable to new medical center

    MauriceRC replied to MauriceRC's topic in General Nursing

  14. The Most Frustrating Mistake I Could Have Made

    MauriceRC posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    For the past 3 years I had been working towards applying for nursing school and this year I finally have enough pre-reqs finished to apply. I had been working on my applications and essays for months...

  15. Is wanting to help people a cliche answer

    MauriceRC replied to esunada's topic in General Nursing

    There are lots of other jobs you could do that would help people. Try thinking about what specifically draws you to medicine. My understanding is that the more specific you can be, the better. For...

    I just got an email saying the accepted my application!!! :D I don't yet know if I'm accepted to the program, but at least I have a

  18. I am taking A&P "Risk Free" at Ocean County College

    MauriceRC replied to tysontwins's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I wish I would have thought of that! I took A&P before I had even taken intro to biology (not my smartest decision) and I really struggled with it. Sounds like you're starting the path very...

    MauriceRC replied to Annalin81's topic in General Nursing

    Yes, a lot of schools not only encourage becoming a CNA before applying but they also require

  23. Officially Pre-Nursing Student!

    MauriceRC replied to AHeartLikeHis's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hey Bethany, I was a psych major too but, unlike you, I didn't have the guts to switch majors so I got a degree I didn't really want and then had to start fresh after graduation. A lot of nursing pre...

  24. Wait List in Twin Cities Schools

    MauriceRC posted a topic in General Nursing

    I have read a number of posts that alluded to wait lists last a year or more for nursing schools. Can anyone tell me specifically which schools in the Twin Cities have these lengthy wait lists? I am...
