  1. The HRSA Nursing Scholarship

    Dear SunrayGirl Which month did you apply? And regarding the letters of recomandation how do they work, do they have to be completed and mailed by the chair of nursing dept of the school?
  2. Pharmacology

    I'm in an ADN program and Pharmacology is inside the med surg portion so we don't get credit for it which sucks. We're using Pharmacology for Nursing Care from Lehne 7 ed which is a very good book...
  3. How hard is chemistry as compared to anatomy class?

    Chem is very different from A&P. I found it easier, there is one main concept dimensional analysis, once you got that down the rest is easy. Chem can be done over the summer no
  4. Debt vs No Debt? ADN/BSN?

    First one I am doing ADN now and as times are in nursing it is really difficult to find a job with ADN if I could go back I would have def done BSN. In the long run BSN will save you time and in...
  5. Is anyone else excited?

    Good luck guys but at the same time start preparing. The nursing program is very different from the pre reqs. You will have to get used to NCLEX type questions which are tricky because from 4...
  6. Obsession with nursing( is this normal)?

    Obsession is normal in pre nursing, I used to think what was I going to do if I didn't get into the program. What I found out though is that this is typical for state ADN programs that are cheap so a...
  7. The HRSA Nursing Scholarship

    Guys I will apply for this scholarship this coming year 2011. Can anyone give me any tips on the process. I understand that there are instructions to follow, but there is always something that you...
  8. From what I am seeing here it takes from 3-6 months in average to find a job even though the first job for most people is not their dream job. I think this data even tough limited shows that even...
  9. My program sucks!!!!

    Thanks for the support
  10. pre-nursing student from laguardia cc

    Hey I am at LaGuardia and I got accepted. If you don't want to waste time you should go in a private school, thats your only option. CUNY will waste you a lot of time and with your current GPA it is...
  11. Do you still hold doors for women?

    Holding the door specifically for a woman implies that they are fragile and tender and all that crap. Well as far as I know women can be worse jerks than men so I would hold the door for politeness...
  12. Well since it is my question, I would like it to go in a certain direction without loosing its focus. I do not mean to hold anybody from expressing themselves but I think that sometimes threads take...
  13. Guys thanks for the replies. Let us stick to the post though and rather than asking questions to each-other please share your experiences on the job hunting and finding experience,
  14. NYC job market for new grads in 2 years?

    Hey I have been accepted at LaGuardia too starting this fall. Another drawback of LaGuardia is that it is only an associate degree and as if being a new grad wasn't enough, you add having an associate...
  15. La Guardia Community College Nursing program

    Haha so great that prof. ***** joined here, lets keep LaGuardia's reputation high. I will speak for myself, I had a 3.94 GPA and was I think 20th on the list of the 60 students accepted on the...
  16. Which courses did you find more difficult and challenging in terms of time spent studying , stress level etc..., the ones in pre nursing section or the ones in the nursing section. I am finishing pre...
  17. Dear JGAMON I see that you have a lot of questions regarding the nursing courses and degrees. I encourage you to look at other posts who are more specifically geared towards these issues or maybe...
  18. Wow 100% is remarkable, do you mind telling us which college do or did you
  19. For ABSN I think you should search in other posts for advice, this one deals with the ''delicate'' moment of transitioning from pre nursing to nursing
  20. Congrats for finishing. Quick question, what is the HESI
  21. Anyway I think this post has deviated from its original purpose. So guys how would you compare pre nursing and nursing courses which one was more
  22. Well I don't think those people would be still there if the pay isn't decent. A CNA is still caring for people but is not as much preferred due to low pay. So yeah I believe that you should like what...
  23. Honestly just because an ADN in nursing takes a short time and the pay is good. Some people usually nursing students say that they did it because they love nursing and helping people etc... I mean I...
  24. What confuses me is that most nursing students say that nursing is hard, and most nurses say that the job per se is hard but ''IT IS WORTH IT''. Why it is worth
  25. Thanks for the numerous replies. A quick statistics, so far 70% think that nursing courses are more difficult and 30% think pre nursing courses are more
