  1. How many hours should I study?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to sandanrnstudent's topic in General Students

    I haven't started my nursing classes yet so I've been wondering the same thing. I know in general college is suppose to be designed where you study for 2-3 hours for every hour in class, ( that's why...

  2. Students with kids...what do you do when they get sick??

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to Britmum's topic in General Students

    I don't know of anyone who does that. If you are a mom and you were able to get accepted into my program, then you must have pretty awesome time management and study skills! Because those of us who...

  3. Posting your Exam Grades on Facebook

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to Kateoh82's topic in General Students

    I'm sorry you feel bad because of your classmates posts. We have too little free time to spend it upset. Maybe you can hide those people so you aren't faced with their grades every time you log on....

  4. Posting your Exam Grades on Facebook

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to Kateoh82's topic in General Students

    I should just add that I don't friend everyone I've ever spoken to on Facebook. If you request me as your friend and I know you I'll accept but I only go out of my way to friend those who I am truly...

  5. Posting your Exam Grades on Facebook

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to Kateoh82's topic in General Students

    I always post my grades because Facebook is the primary way I communicate with friends and family while I'm busy in school. This lets those who care, like my in-laws ( who help pay for school and are...

  6. Gulp...This sure is a lot of studying.

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to WKredz5's topic in General Students

    I took a study skills class at my school that was really helpful. You might want to see if your school has one or find a book on study skills in the library. My take: A&P and Chem in the same...

  7. Help! What are you doing for income while in school?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to gina197880's topic in General Students

    Also if you have a dog that you must walk ( or you schedule exercise for yourself regularly) you could walk others dogs at the same time. I don't know what your living situation is but if you live in...

  8. Help! What are you doing for income while in school?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to gina197880's topic in General Students

    Not all schools offer a lot of loans. The community college I'm attending offers financial aid in the form of government grants but they don't participate in the loan program. They are fully...

  9. Fall 2011, what's your schedule?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to BelleNscrubs04's topic in General Students

    Thanks everyone for responding, and keep them coming! It's so interesting to see how the different schools format their programs. My school doesn't have classes on Fridays which I really love because...

  10. gun safety and children

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to cayenne06's topic in General Students

    I'm curious...this was on your exam today, was it covered in any of the material you were responsible for? Were developmental stages and abilities covered? I hope I'm not going to be thrown questions...

  11. Students with kids...what do you do when they get sick??

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to Britmum's topic in General Students

    I don't start the nursing program for a few weeks. I've been trying to line up occasional babysitters who are willing to keep sick kids. I have a friend who has offered if it's a day when she's not...

  12. ADN or BSN degree???

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to swoody's topic in General Students

    I think it depends on your area/region. Where I live ADN programs are not looked down upon and make just as much money. After they have experience they can often move up the ladder without a BS. Also...

  13. Will you still have pre/co-requisites to take while in NS?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to Copperismydog's topic in General Students

    It might also vary because of how programs are structured. Our nursing classes (ADN) only count for about 9-12 hrs each semester but we must take them in sequence together over five semesters. I've...

  14. Will you still have pre/co-requisites to take while in NS?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to Copperismydog's topic in General Students

    I will have all of mine done. A couple of people at my school still have one class left. Our nursing director said "it takes a very special person" to take your other classes at the same time. That...

  15. Accepted to Emory but not sure

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to joeeasmsa's topic in General Students

    If you think you can get ready to go in time, GO! Emory has an excellent reputation and that will open doors for you. It sounds like your feelings might be hurt because they didn't tell you that you...

  16. Cell Phones in Class?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to virgo,student nurse's topic in General Students

    My nursing program starts in a few weeks. In pre reqs , we were technically not suppose to have our phones on or out in class although the instructors I had were pretty lenient about it. It was very...

  17. prerequisites, money and confusion!

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to cathyn518's topic in General Students

    I start a CC program in a couple of weeks. Like the schools you mentioned it is competetive. In order to get enough points to be accepted you usually need to have all or most of your "Co-reqs" like...

  18. Should I get a "jump-start" studying???

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to Java Mama's topic in General Students

    We won't have our syllabus until the first day of class but as a busy mom I have to get a jump on things. I purchased nursing fundamentals demystified from B&N since many of our books aren't in...

  21. HELP

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to RansomS's topic in General Students

    You did fine on your other post. I think it just looks different to you because you wrote it and therefore it's tagged as having already been read by you. Anyway, I read it and thought it included...

  22. Ebooks in Nursing School?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to hannah87's topic in General Students

    I'm trying to get as many books as possible in an e-book format. I study away from home a lot so for me it is MUCH better to only have to tote my IPad. I don't like reading on a regular computer...
