    K_girl replied to studentsara's topic in General Students

    K_girl replied to Selfrespectforwomen's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'd say just to maybe take one or two classes at a time so you can allow yourself enough time to study. Have you looked into getting a tutor? Most colleges have a tutoring office. You may just need...

  3. Hope I make the RIGHT decision!!!

    K_girl replied to cmm4ever's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Some hospitals have other people do the actual ekgs. I worked on a telemetry unit and when i was there i just did the basic monitoring on the floor (measuring strips, watching monitors, etc). You...

    K_girl replied to GirlDotson's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  11. I failed college algebra! so down need advice:(

    K_girl replied to foxycats's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Have you checked out the prereqs for your BSN? They may require algebra so, if that's the case, you may want to think about retaking it. Also most programs will look at your overall GPA so you will...

  12. Need advice on Transffering, or not and to just get my BSN.

    K_girl replied to Mom02895's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think if you are planning on becoming a CNM you are better off to get your BSN now if you are able to do so. If I were in your shoes I would go for a BSN program instead of doing an LPN-BSN...

    K_girl replied to horseygirl2rn's topic in General Students

    Hi Horsey, 45k sounds to me like an obscene amount to pay for a nursing degree. I read some other posts about Everest and it's come back with mixed reviews. Hopefully it's not the same one I am...

    K_girl replied to anne2424's topic in General Students
