  1. What color is your uniform?

    We've got maroon top and bottom. It's one of the schools colors, I actually like it :). We also have a white lab coat. Our tops and lab coats have the schools patch on them. I just can't wait to actually wear them (I start my program next month!)...
  2. Which stethoscope for nursing school?

    I got my plum cardiology III this week!! It's beautiful! The color is not as shown in the picture though...it's not as bright as it's shown, it's darker and not as purple. Even though it's not as shown I am still pleased with the color though! Th...
  3. Which stethoscope for nursing school?

    I ordered my PLUM cardiology III yesterday! haha, that's too funny:lol2:! I will let you know if it's true to color when I get it this week, I've got my fingers crossed that it'll be here by tuesday. I ordered it from medisave too! If you like the...
  4. Which stethoscope for nursing school?

    I start in the fall too and I'm having the same dilemma! I'm actually torn between the Littmann Classic II S.E. and the Cardiology III...I'm also curious as to if the colors shown online are true to the actual steth...like the purple classic and the...
  5. I do not have my CNA/LNA and I was accepted into a BSN program for this fall. I would have loved to have gotten it before starting but, the cost and time I just didn't have to spare. The only places around here that offer the classes are local high...
  6. Annnnd....INFJ! lol. I start my BSN program this fall with no prior medical experience so I'm really trying to keep my mind open to any area, but my current interest is L&D, mainly mother/baby care, peds, and psych. It's hard to make a decision...
  7. I'm thinking about doing statistics online and I'm wondering what other people's experiences have been with taking it online? I'm just worried that I will get stuck and not have help available to me. I'm definitely more of a classroom kind of gal b...
  8. How to go to nursing school??

    Since he already has a BA he could go into an accelerated BSN program and get his RN that way. He would more than likely still have to do those pre-req's before hand though.
  9. I'm pregnant!!

    I wouldn't worry too much about discrimination against you for being pregnant. If they do discriminate it is against the law and you probably wouldn't want to work for them anyway. Not to mention, you don't have to disclose that information at an i...
  10. I got my acceptance back in the beginning of November for this fall (2011) . I just gave them my deposit today to hold my place in the program! I am SO excited!! I can't wait to get the necessary paperwork and find out what I need to do (backgrou...
  11. Question for Nurses who are MOMS

    Thank you keepmovinglpn, this is good to hear. After reading this thread I called my DH and was freaking out to him and he tried to help calm my nerves (which he was somewhat successful at, lol) but reading your post makes me feel much better, thank...
  12. Question for Nurses who are MOMS

    I have to be honest, as I'm reading through this thread it's really upsetting to hear how unfamily friendly nursing is I am not a nurse yet, I start my program this fall and I have two little girls (3yrs and 1.5yrs). Other than school I am a stay a...
  13. does the body store potassium or not?

    If I remember correctly from A&P I the body does not store potassium...

  15. Just Accepted To Nursing School

    awesome job! it is so exciting to be accepted! I got my letter a few weeks ago and I still have to have my husband give me a pinch to see if it's real, lol. Now I've just gotta wait and wait until fall 2011 to start....can you say FOREVER away!? h...

  17. pre-req's & gpa for VTC

    Thank you all for your responses :) I decided to apply to Norwich University's BSN program and got in! Which ends up working out really well for me since I live just a short 5 minute walk from campus, lol. I'm just wondering too, are there waiting ...
  18. pre-req's & gpa for VTC

    Hello everyone! I started my pre-req's for VTC's nursing program in January 2010, I'm now on my third semester at CCV. I was wondering, for those of you who have been accepted, what was your gpa? How did you do in A&P? I'm worried that my B- i...
  19. does a bad check ruin everything?

    I'm glad to hear that it will work itself out but man what a run around huh? Isn't it expensive to hire a lawyer? I agree with the previous poster in the sense that this little blip on your background wouldn't reflect on or impair your nursing skil...
  20. does a bad check ruin everything?

    Wow, that really sucks! I would totally be freaking out too (sorry, I know I'm not helping the matter). Maybe they will just want an explanation of what happened with the check. Keep us posted on what happens tomorrow! Way to go on the urinalysis...
  21. does a bad check ruin everything?

    Geesh I hope not! I have been accepted into a program for next fall and will have to complete a criminal background check as well and my credit is less than favorable. Although I just did some research into the one I will have to complete and it is...
  22. Just got an email and I was...

    ME! (raises hand) I've just been accepted into a four year private BSN program and it is 27k a year. I'm hoping to start as a sophomore if I can get the needed classes down between now and next fall (should be able to). I'm counting on some fin...
  25. Statistics online? good/bad idea?

    Yeah I need it for my BSN, I wanna get it out of the way because I'm hoping the school will start me as a sophomore if I get all the first year classes out of the way (if they accept them as transfers). I feel much better about doing it online now, ...
