  1. What part of Ohio are you in? I've seen some job postings for LPNs recently and none mentioned needing a year experience. That said, at least in our area (Lorain County) jobs of any kind are harder...
  2. Required to watch circumcision?

    Of course! I didn't mean to imply that you wouldn't be a good nurse, sorry if it came across that way. Despite not liking elective inductions and RIC, I still want to work in OB - I want to be the...
  3. Required to watch circumcision?

    I've watched videos online (it's actually how I convinced DH not to circ by sending him the videos!) so I know what's done. I'm against RIC and will watch when I finally get to that point. I agree...
  4. Chubby Nursing Student****

    I'd suggest taking time to go to the gym. I take Lifetime Fitness for just this reason. I walk on the treadmill for half an hour, during that time, I'm flipping note cards - so I'm not wasting...
  5. What do you think?

    At my school it's your overall of all classes for your overall

  7. 700 pages of reading, per week, for one class

    I'd get together with a group of other students. Pick ones that you know do good work. Then divide up the text, each of you to take notes on the material and then share
  8. Spring 2010 A&P 2

    Who else is taking it? Feel free to give background info about yourself. Also please share how you did in A&P 1 and what you learned as far as how to study for it. I am either going to take 14 or...
  9. So where is everyone applying?

    Just a local community college
  10. What specialty do you want and not want to work in?

    I'm a pre-nursing student, but I really want to do L&D. Peds might be okay too. Heck, geriatrics might be okay too, I like old people, they're awesome for history lessons and to learn from....
  11. Spring 2010 A&P 2

    I'm pretty sure that I'll have a semester of waiting, I'll be using it for classes that will help me with my BSN later
  12. The Case Against Breastfeeding

    Not trying to argue with you, but for any who may be reading and think "I wont' nurse because I don't want my breasts to change", I just want to say that we lost our first child as a newborn, although...
  13. Tri-C in Cleveland

    Wow, sounds like Tri-C isn't going to be able to claim that they don't have a waiting list anymore. ForeverLaur - if you really want to get in quick, find out which hospitals in the area have...
  14. The Case Against Breastfeeding

    The thing is, your milk is going to come in whether you BF or not, which is why it's considered to be pregnancy related. Even if you have a stillbirth or your infant dies, your milk is going to come...
  15. Oops, sorry, I missed that part of it.
  16. Need advice: Should I take A&P II and Chem together???

    Out of the three that you have left, I'd take Chem and A&PII together and then take Micro in the summer. My reasons are this: *I hear that A&PII is easier than A&PI. *Chem is different...
  17. Spring 2010 A&P 2

    I try and squeeze study time in. I have two young kids and also volunteer (last semester I worked one day per week too!), plus I carry a full load. I take a workout class and I walk on the treadmill...
  18. Lorain County Community College does one: http://www.lorainccc.edu/ Under resources click on credit course schedule. It's called Chemistry and Society, all online and is three credit
  19. The wait for your acceptance into nursing school

    I applied in August, after finishing my pre-reqs. But when I put my name on the list, it was at about 1000 students. They give first priority to students who have completed all of their core...
  20. First Bump on a Bumpy Road

    I think you'll find some women who aren't comfortable with it, but those are the same ones who will seek out only a female OB. Myself, as long as someone is competent, I could care less whether a male...
  21. Kent State

    The sheet I found (a pdf) said the minimum gpa is 2.0. http://www1.kent.edu/regional/Programs/associate/2009-2010/upload/AASNursing.pdf I also found this, an online brochure:...
  22. Spring 2010 A&P 2

    I would be if I didn't have the same professor this semester as I did last semester. I'm slightly nervous for lab as it'll be a different lab instructor and the instructors for our lab portion vary...

    Not required at my school, it's all about when you

    Congratulations on getting into the ADN program! :) You have not wasted all this time, those classes will come in handy later on when you're working as an RN and decide to bridge to the BSN program....

    Exactly.
