  1. Are all L&D/Post-Partum units like this?

    IME, your nurse plays a great deal into whether you'll have a pleasant experience or not. I've had three births and the first one was the worst. The nurses did not like that I wanted a natural...
  2. open nursing programs

    Maybe Huron School of Nursing? Most of the community colleges have a wait. They don't say that it's a wait list - Tri-C they just sit for future classes (as a PP said they are sitting for Fall 2011...
  3. Do I need Bio before A&P??

    Just take A&P. I hadn't had Bio since 10th grade (and my ten year reunion has come, gone and the 15 year is right around the corner) and I got an A in A&P
  4. are nursing schools in ohio easier to get into?

    Easier as in getting in quickly? Or easier as in grades? If getting in quickly, there are some programs that you apply to and if you have good grades and have a majority of your pre-reqs done (and...
  5. Anatomy and Physiology

    My least favorite was studying all the tissues way at the beginning of A&P I. I didn't think that I would like some of the others, but have surprised myself and enjoyed them.
  6. A+P II Rant! and advice?

    Honestly, the end of the semester is just tough, there's no getting around that. I am in A&P II and fortunately, my school ends lab before lecture, otherwise we'd be crammed with the same thing...
  7. tips for online classes....

    Use complete sentences, including periods and capital letters at the beginning of a sentence. That might seem basic, but oh my, was I ever in for a shock over some of the other students
  8. What did you do when you got rejected?

    I've been done with my pre-reqs since August 09, at which point, I applied to the nursing program at my school. I was passed over for spring (which I knew would happen), but I was told maybe fall of...
  9. Whats the ideal sequence for pre-reqs

    At my school, you don't have to take Chemistry to get into the nursing program if you took it in high school and received a C or better. Well, I did, but it was like 14 years prior. I did not take...
  10. Tri-C in Cleveland

    Finishing two years sooner? That's two years of potential work. Huron would be my
  11. Nursing School...How to support my family

    How about taking a long hard look at the budget and really paring down on
  12. How many hours do you study for A/P II tests?

    tap - Everything seems harder in A&P II than A&PI here. My Professor is trying to prepare us for any of the allied health and nursing programs and I think she is weeding some out. We started...
  13. I wouldn't bug her either. I'd suggest trying to move. I know that you said it would disrupt the quality of your family's life, but how is that quality going to be when you're driving an 1.5 to 2...
  14. I'd finish your degree and take your pre-reqs at the same time if I were you. But, I would also try very hard to pull up that GPA. After I finished w/a bachelor's, I'd apply to the accelerated...
  15. What degree do i choose to get my RN? PLEASE HELP

    If I were you, I'd go for the accelerated BSN. Good luck!
  16. Traditional VS Accelerated BSN

    A lot of times you would be in school longer b/c the nursing courses at many institutions have to be taken in the order that they
  17. I was billed for anesthesia for my VBAC w/out an epidural for merely the fact that they were in house. When I called and told them I didn't have anesthesia they explained that for the privilege of...
  18. Nursing programs that don't require Chemistry?!

    I'm going to a community college, pursuing my ADN and my high school Chemistry that I took, my Junior year of high school counted because I got a C or better. We did cover all of the topics previously...
  19. Which nursing schools have open seats?

    Sorry, I think I'm tired. I processed it as "who doesn't have a waiting list", which yeah, a lot claim to not have. I have no idea where these mysterious schools are that don't have enough...
  20. Which nursing schools have open seats?

    I know that there are some schools who do not have a waiting list, just from my research on them. For example, at CSU (Cleveland State) applicants apply before March for fall admission. If you are...
  21. Student Loan Reform

    Re: The ACLU trying to prevent student loans from being given to those attending private religious schools. While they might try, I doubt they'll be very successful. As long as the school is...
  22. Identifying yourself as an RN when flying commercial

    I have a friend who does put it down. The flight crew always introduces themselves to her and confirms that she's a nurse. She does it so that they know who they might go to in a medical emergency....
  23. How many hours do you study for A/P II tests?

    I rewrite my notes in the form of notecards as soon as possible after lecture. Sometimes that's the next day, sometimes it's three or four days later. But, I keep those notecards with me at all...
  24. VBAC for a Lady Who Has Had 2 Previous C-sections

    I'd get in touch with your local ICAN chapter. I sat on a panel of four woman who'd had recent VBACs and two of them had had a VBA2C (out of four). It's really all going to depend upon the area....
  25. Tri-C in Cleveland

    Well, that's a bummer. I might get in to LCCCs program that semester. Might. I'll be done this summer with all my support courses and only have nursing courses left and have to wait. And wait....
