    mangopeach replied to Darkpk55's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  6. Please don't judge me...I need advice please.

    mangopeach replied to layla100's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  8. Nursing school requires projects, writing, research, speech???

    mangopeach replied to Darkpk55's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thats the point of being in school. To Learn!!! We get caught up on the grades, but the ultimate idea of being in school, no matter what level you are, is to learn. So starting from now on, make that...

  9. LPN or RN program?

    mangopeach replied to east2010's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you know you ultimately want to be an RN, wait for the RN program. OR you could do the LPN program and later bridge to an RN program. How long would that take? It might work out the same in time,...

  10. are student loans worth a nursing education

    mangopeach replied to kjj007's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Have you completed the pre-reqs for the program you are interested in yet? If not then I would at least suggest taking those at a CC. I don't see the point in paying a ginormous sum to do pre-reqs if...

    mangopeach replied to sk8inghunny's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You are welcome. The UC Berkeley videos are all on Youtube. The first video I linked is a UC video. They have a full semester of A&P videos. The prof is great. I wish I had her for my prof, but...

  13. are student loans worth a nursing education

    mangopeach replied to kjj007's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I guess it depends on how much you really want to be a nurse to determine if its worth taking on loans. I have loans,but nowhere near that amount. I'm attending a CC to get my ADN and will get an...

    mangopeach replied to Classylady85's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    When you take the TEAS V for GPC, it will tell you if you scored Proficient, Advanced,or Exemplary. Did you apply to GPC yet? They have changed how they do things. You must first apply before doing...

  16. A&P in 8 wks - how did you do it?

    mangopeach replied to sk8inghunny's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with others. Do what you can to prep ahead of time. I got an A for lecture and B for lab in A&P II in the summer semester. It was intense and if I had it to do all over again, I probably...

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

    How is everyone doing? Got the results of Lecture Exam #2 today- 100 points! Woohoo 5 points were extra credit but I did way better than I thought I did. I need to stop doubting

  18. Psychiatric Background Check For First Degree BSN

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

    I don't believe this should be a problem unless you are currently being treated for severe clinical depression, then that might be a problem. There is no psych test to get into nursing school,...

  22. College refused to refund my fees

    mangopeach replied to Dream Girl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow. Do you have anything in writing? Like their posted deadline for when refunds must be requested along with proof of the date you requested the refund. If you have that, I don't understand why they...

  23. Considering RT after some research. Anyone else, even for a minute?

    mangopeach replied to collegegirl209's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It may be different depending on where you are, but I can tell you that from what I hear around here. Getting into RT school is not much easier than getting into nursing school. In fact it might be...

  25. Nervous, nervous, nervous

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

    I think its normal to feel nervous. I start in January and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous. But I'm not going to let my fear get in my way. I've come too far to turn back now, so I know there...
