4. Favorite Nursing Class

   ambitiousBSN replied to MizMaverick's topic in General Students

   Med/Surg so far because of what has been mentioned before- it's when a lot of things started coming together. I'll have another Med/Surg class in the fall, so we'll see if it stays as a favorite, lol....

5. Pathophysiology

   ambitiousBSN replied to SunkissedRN2b's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   My school combines Pathophysiology and Pharmacology into one course. I think it's best to have taken A&P I and II prior to taking Pathophysiology because in order to understand the abnormal...

   I am currently in their nursing program. I just finished the second semester and so far, everything has been great. Sure, there are kinks to be worked out, or have been worked out as we progress, but...

   ambitiousBSN replied to Jenn829's topic in Maryland Nursing

   Congratulations to those of you who were accepted! For those of you who weren't accepted- please do not give up on your dream! I applied to CCBC during two admissions cycles and was rejected both...

9. in 6 DAYS, I won't belong in this forum anymore!

   ambitiousBSN replied to RookieRoo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   Congrats! :-) I still check this forum regardless of being in a nursing program. I find that what has or hasn't helped me is helpful to pre-nursing students, so I still try to check in and see if my...

10. surviving nursing shcool

    ambitiousBSN replied to ssbabygirl09's topic in General Students

    This! When I took Med/Surg the first half of the semester, I had that problem- with questions on exams, I had the problem of thinking too far into the question, so your comment hits the nail right on...

11. Med terminology class?

    ambitiousBSN replied to aeris99's topic in General Students

    I think that's a great class to take for any health related field. I took a Medical Assisting program 7+ years ago and much of the medical terminology I learned in that program has proven to be a huge...

13. CCBC Fall 2014 RN program

    ambitiousBSN replied to Jenn829's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Popping in again because nursing acceptances are awesome :-) In the past, Simon would say "SHP Decision Made," or something to that effect. It is true that you can potentially see a seat fee posted...

14. How much do you work in nursing school?

    ambitiousBSN replied to ShortyinScrubs's topic in General Students

    Notre Dame's program has been great. I'm glad I transferred and am going through their program. As for advice: 1. Buy a planner (not that I would imagine you don't already have one, lol) and seriously...
