    beingthankful replied to TYoungRN7's topic in Florida Nursing

    I'm with you Daisyline. At first I thought this is really disorganized. I'm not having a lot of faith in this. But I picked something up from the bookstore man. He said he was SUPER frustrated...

    beingthankful replied to TYoungRN7's topic in Florida Nursing

    Hi! I'm also starting in summer. I thought the orientation was a massive amount of information. I had the same issue with the bookstore. What they actually told me is that the nursing dept hadn't...

    beingthankful replied to jacelyn's topic in Florida Nursing

    Hi Jacelyn! Welcome to the forum & VCC. I think it's great that you're considering nursing. As you're just starting out. The best thing I can suggest is to leave math alone for a little while....

  12. Intimidated by smarties!!

    beingthankful replied to Loving This's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You just described SEVERAL people in my APII class. But I don't know if they'll ever realize that they are annoying. OP you are just as intelligent, worthy and gifted as the rest of the class. Keep...

    beingthankful replied to Ayvasmom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  14. A & P II Spring 2011

    beingthankful replied to Ike Arumba's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm in AP II this spring. Our teacher though gives a LOT of resources. He has all of his lectures on CD, has all of his lab practical slides, cut sections, etc on CD. And gives you some clues as to...

  15. Pre-Req's

    beingthankful replied to Krystalia's topic in General Students

    I'm in AP1 right now, for me yes, it's intense. Not overly so but still a LOT of work. I know of other students who have taken it & had questions of "where's your clavicle" type study while in my...

    beingthankful replied to wishing2BAnurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's really tough. I'm right there with ya sister! My advice is to sit & look realistically at what you can do. If financially you can swing it with no health insurance/care for yourself &...

  18. Soooo... Are you at a disadvantage at NS? I think I am.

    beingthankful replied to Spikey9001's topic in General Students

    Wow, my heart goes out to you. How far away from school is your home? Maybe you can carpool with some other students who are going to school that day. You may just have to be there all day type...

  19. first day of A&P

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

    Take a break. A small one. Stretch your legs, go outside, get some physical activity. (Even if it's just a brisk walk around the house) - you'll be amazed at what the physical activity can do for your...

    beingthankful replied to smm1901's topic in Florida Nursing

    tebyrd0020 from what I understand of the SSC/SCC program, the "stated" requirements are a 2.5 gpa, 73% on teas. However, as opposed to the VCC program where if you passed pre-reqs have an overall 2.5...

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

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

    I've used an e-book. It's really up to you. I tend to stay around computers so it was easy for me to use an e-book that way. One of the things to consider is if you're one of those ppl who like to...

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

    I personally don't - I'm a newbie myself (so what do I know) but I've been researching this for awhile now, and it seems as if this has been pushed for quite some time. The problem is that more &...

  24. Poor nurses

    beingthankful replied to gettingbsn2msn's topic in General Nursing

    I live in the southeastern US. I am not a nurse (yet) but I can offer up that it can be very very easy down here to get those wages. Current GN's down here (if they can get a job) make $21-22 whether...

  25. Hello, I'm seeking some guidance.

    beingthankful replied to Twilix's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi Liza! No, it's very unlikely that your educational pursuits would be derailed just on the basis of being overwieght alone. Almost 1/3 of the population is overwieght no no worries there! Also,...
