  1. Will being a CNA help NS chances?

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

    Depends on the program you plan to apply to. At my school it would not matter. Only thing that matters is GPA and TEAS

  2. any extra classes that help?

  3. Micro Fall 2010

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

    First Class Today. Wow! We are off and running already. Daily quizzes in lecture class so need to be ready for them. We had a quiz the first day of class. Geesh. But it was easy breezy. It was a short...

  4. About to start NS...but unhappy with my school

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

    I agree. Honestly, I don't think you have anything to be upset about. My school also looks at Ws in their decision process, so consider yourself lucky that with a W and C and you are still able to...

  5. Taking courses with no credit...

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

    But if you plan to later go from LVN to RN as you said in the beginning, the non credit course is not going to transfer. Personally, I would wait and take a course that I can get credit for. Is this...

  6. Any Georgia pre-nursing students

    mangopeach replied to cookie422's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm in GA. Honestly, the math really wasn't that bad to me. The science portion was a lot more difficult. The math was really basic stuff. You just have to be quick so you get to finish. Most of the...

  7. Did You Guys See This??? MUST READ FOR Pre Nursing Students!!!!!

    mangopeach posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hey Guys, I saw this article posted in Nursing News. I think its a must read for Pre Nursing Students. I know some are considering private schools so beware that this kind of thing is happening....

  8. With jobs in such short supply should I still get my RN?

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

    Only you can answer that question. I don't mean to sound harsh, but there are no guarantees in life. No matter what you do career wise, there will always be a bit of uncertainty, especially in these...

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

    Ordered my book from Chegg today. The Tortora book. $56.49 on Chegg compared to almost 200 bucks at my school book store. WOW!!! What a

  10. Has anyone used an e-book instead of a textbook?

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

    Yes, I get some of my books as e-books from Coursesmart.com almost every semester. Saves a ton$$ and saves me from carrying around a heavy text

  12. What did i get myself into?!?

    mangopeach replied to cresendez2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That looks like a really hectic schedule, plus being pregnant and 2 young kids. I wouldn't do it. Science is a different beast, even if you are a good student. It takes tremendous amount of study...

  14. is there a problem with men going into nursing.

    mangopeach replied to JonB04's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have no problem with male nurses, with the exception that as with almost all professions, I hear that male nurses in some places are paid higher than their female

  15. How to beat the freshman 15!

    mangopeach replied to StangGang92's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Do they have salads or veggies? I'd go with protein and veggies. If they have burgers, I'd eat the burger and a salad and toss the bun. Stay away from simple carbs and

    mangopeach posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hey guys, anyone taking this course? What book are you using or have you used? Its not a pre-req at my school but they do recommend that you take it. I just finished taking it over the summer and I...

  17. Anyone taking Med Math/Math Dosage for Nursing?

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

    Thanks DC. Thats the book that was recommended for the course, but I never got it because it was an online class and the prof's instructions were pretty decent. I learned enough to pass the class but...

  18. Georgia Perimeter College

    mangopeach replied to nursinginga's topic in Georgia Nursing

    OK, this is probably not what you want to hear, but I think its better to slow it down and take less classes so you have a better chance of getting the highest possible grades. I understand how you...

  19. Is this class load insane?

    mangopeach replied to Amp21786's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with DCardon. Don't plan on getting anywhere with a 2.5. Thats almost asking the impossible these days. Competition is just too tough out there. You should remember that the majority of...

  20. Who's taking A&P II this summer? (2010)

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

    Final Grades posted today. I did get an A for lecture! Yippeeee! I got a B for lab, but I figured that would happen. I'm psyched to get another A in lecture though.

  22. rejection is making me lost

    mangopeach replied to carroyo90's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It is competitive everywhere. I go to a CC and a 2.8 would not cut it here either. When you check most schools' websites or speak to non nursing advisors, they may tell you oh the program asks for at...
