  1. Student Loans without a Cosigner

    tap87 replied to anne2424's topic in General Students

    I think it's really hard to get a loan without a co-signer...I could be wrong though. I know I applied for one with chase a few years ago and I have excellent credit but they wouldn't approve me...

  2. Pregnancy in nursing program

    tap87 replied to naomiomio's topic in General Students

    I don't think they can make you drop or make you take a leave while you are pregnant. I know a girl in my program who made it through all of her classes so far while being pregnant without any...

  3. Maternity clinical rotation advice

    tap87 replied to Missy2's topic in General Students

    I just started my maternity rotation last week too. It's really interesting but can be boring. There are only 4 people in my clinical group this semester so two people went to the postpartum unit, I...

  5. How to Study for Nursing Exams

    tap87 replied to JustaNrsgStudent's topic in General Students

    Definitely get th NCLEX books such as fundamentals success and the review/rationale books (they have one for almost every class). I didn't get any test grade less than a 90 last semester and all of...

  6. My Microbiology Teacher told me I can't become a Nurse

    tap87 replied to louis345's topic in General Students

    You have nothing to worry about! Like all of the other posters said--you will rarely or never use the microscope in nursing school! When I was completing my pre-reqs I had an A+P professor who made...

  7. First Semester Nursing School

    tap87 replied to EMEddie's topic in General Students

    I was really nervous when I started my first semester too and didn't think I would be able to hold A grades, but so far I am and we only have a few weeks left in this semester. It just depends on how...

  8. I start nursing school tomorrow and I'm having second thoughts...help!

    tap87 replied to Rachelmm007's topic in General Students

    There's no reason to be negative. Just because you personally had a bad experience doesn't mean that everyone else will. A lot of people do it for the money, but there are still plenty of people who...

  9. I start nursing school tomorrow and I'm having second thoughts...help!

    tap87 replied to Rachelmm007's topic in General Students

    Follow your dreams! Don't let fear of anything stand in your way! I look at it this way: it's probably easier to get a job in nursing compared to other fields. I remember when I trasferred to my...

  10. How can I feel less nervous about starting nursing school?

    tap87 replied to Copperismydog's topic in General Students

    Don't be nervous!! I took my pre-reqs at a two year college and then transferred to a University this year for the BSN. My former A+P teacher always told us about how hard nursing school was and the...

  11. Personalizing Stethoscopes?

    tap87 replied to doublehelix's topic in General Students

    I got my stethoscope and engraving from medisave as well. They really do a nice job for free if you buy the stethoscope from them. I like the engraving because like other posters said, it doesn't...

  13. Statistics online?

    tap87 replied to coleVT10's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Statistics online is not bad at all! Especially since you can take the tests, etc. online. I am really bad at math but ended up getting an "A" in stats. The math zone is really good if you're able to...

  14. A&P I ......3x!?!?!?

    tap87 replied to Divalish918's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Like everyone else said..it really depends on the school you are applying to. Does the school that you are currently attending post all of the repeats on your transcript? I repeated chemistry...the...

  15. Questions and concerns going to school at 36

    tap87 replied to Meesterjojo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You really have nothing to worry about!! I just finished my pre-reqs in the spring and there were so many older students (30+) in my classes. If you are worried about 15 hours being too much, are you...

  16. Nursing textbook question...previous editions ok?

    tap87 posted a topic in General Students

    Hello everyone, I am starting a nursing BSN program in the fall (I'm really excited!). But I met with someone from the nursing department last week and it finally hit me how expensive everything will...

    tap87 replied to DSantosNJ's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

  18. Getting bad vibes about next class

    tap87 replied to Anne36's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hopefully the class will be okay for you. I never really had back luck with the rate your prof. website either. Most of the time the comments seem to be right on point with how the teacher is. It's...

  19. I survived A&P I&II!!

    tap87 replied to QuarterLife88's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congrats!! I got an A in A+P 1 last year and got a B in A+P 2 this spring. I worked really hard and was hoping for an A, but a B is still good. Congrats again and good luck to everyone who is...

    tap87 replied to letsseehere's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Nice skirt! I want to treat myself to something small...just not sure what I want yet lol. I'll have to make a good choice since I need to save for nursing school...everything is so expensive that you...

  21. Cheap textbook sites?

    tap87 replied to wannabe an rn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Definitely look for the previous edition of books...you will save so much money!!! It didn't take me too long to figure that out. Also...get a feel for the teacher first, especially if it's for...

    tap87 replied to erniebertandme's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

  23. Freaking out over FULL summer classes

    tap87 replied to letsseehere's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You might get in..try to talk to the program director, sometimes if you explain your situation they will make adjustments (they do at my school anyway). If they can't add one more person (being you)...

  24. Discrimination or reality?

    tap87 replied to tiredstudentmom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That does sound like discrimination...but it's probably hard to prove. There is a popular nursing school in my area and everyone wants to go there for the diploma program and my boss was telling me he...
