  2. ADN Fall 2011 Hopefuls!!!

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to VannVann2008's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Oh no! I bombed my chemistry final today! The good news is I would have to have scored less than a 35 in order to not get out of the class with a C. At this point I'll gladly take a C, I have indeed...

  3. ADN Fall 2011 Hopefuls!!!

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to VannVann2008's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've got a chemistry final in the morning, then I have to take my Anatomy and physiology final on Thursday. I was suppose to have it this morning but my son was sick and when I called his ped they...

  4. Should I take Anatomy and physiology 2 and microbiology together?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to RNinthemaking1986's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for posting. I've enjoyed reading everyone's advice/perspective. I'm planning on taking a&p 2 along with micro in the

  5. What does a pre-nursing student want for Xmas?

    BelleNscrubs04 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    :gift:Dear Santa, I have been very good this year! I have spent hour after hour studying and learning parts of the body. I take my books everywhere, and attend all my classes. I never watch TV or...

  6. Is nursing worth it?!?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to hokiefanatic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you have an ivy league scholarship, take it! If you decide once you've finished your education that you don't want to work in that field then you can make the switch. Many places have accelerated...

  7. How are you going to spend your Thanksgiving break?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to BelleNscrubs04's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Had a great thanksgiving dinner with my family today. My husband had to work so that was a bummer but I was able to see my extended family. Black friday is going to be devoted to Shopping, and...

  8. How are you going to spend your Thanksgiving break?

    BelleNscrubs04 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yea! I'm out of school for a week! I'm officially beginning my 'break'. Today, I walked a few miles while socializing with some moms. Then I took my preschooler to lunch. It was great to spend some...

  9. Are there any questions you can ask before applying to nursing school?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to cookie91's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't have a particular question for you to ask, just the suggestion that you check out their websites before the orientations. That might give you some ideas and will keep you from asking something...

  10. Do you think Patients would confuse me for a doctor if I'm South Asian and male?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to Samian Q's topic in General Nursing

    Yes. Uniforms are confusing in American hospitals and vary from place to place so people rely on stereotypes to distinguish and make assumptions about who is who. Some will think you are a MD because...

  11. Critique my plan!

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to RevolutioN2013's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Sounds like a good plan. Just curious does the accelerated program require you to have a CNA? Or do you just want the experience? It seems like an odd requirement for a program made for those are...

  12. How are you going to spend your Thanksgiving break?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to BelleNscrubs04's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow! I'm amazed at how many have very little break! I've been loving my break so far. I have been to other schools where we always seemed to have a big test or paper due right after Thanksgiving, but...

  13. Is this realistic?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to Humanatarian123's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    ehhh...mostly. I think you can certainly do all those things but only by making some compromises and keeping your expectations realistic. I'm a mom too. I'm going to school in the prenursing program...

  14. Is this going to be overload?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to npeters's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'll be taking Anatomy and Physiology 2 along with micro and two other hopefully easy "basketweaving" classes this Spring. I'm a mother of two and have plenty of responsibilities. I need to make A's...

  15. Is chemistry important to become a nurse?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to strawberryluv's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm taking Chemistry now but in my state none of the ADN programs even require Chemistry. I am definitely overwhelmed by it. The concepts I'm good with but the calculations are killing me. I'm hoping...

  16. How many hours a day/week do you study for pre-req's?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to Wan2BRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have to study Lots! I would say I probably study study 30+ hours a week for my two science classes (Chem, Anatomy and Physiology). Full disclosure so you get a good idea of where I'm coming from: I...

  17. "prereqs" or "coreqs"?

    BelleNscrubs04 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was hoping some different people could reply and clarify something for me. I often see posts describing nursing school on here and peole refer to taking their prereqs before nursing school. My...

  18. Will my previous knowledge help me with trying to become a nurse?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to Krystalia's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Someone in my class had a previous Biology BS degree and works in a hospital (I believe as a very hands on CNA in an emergency department. She's stuggling as much as everyone else in Anatomy and...

  19. ADN Fall 2011 Hopefuls!!!

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to VannVann2008's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I know people try to be reassuring and encouraging but .... I always think to my self "how do you know it will work out?". It certainly didn't for 550 people who were rejected last year at my school....

  20. "prereqs" or "coreqs"?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to BelleNscrubs04's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Sounds similar to my program. We have 50 spots no waiting list. It's a point system but I still see people waiting...and waiting...and waiting...some even while they take classes they don't need just...

  21. "prereqs" or "coreqs"?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to BelleNscrubs04's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for all the replies so far. It seems that at some schools there really are pre-reqs but that the way my school does it is also common. The nursing instructors warned us that working or taking...

  22. ADN Fall 2011 Hopefuls!!!

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to VannVann2008's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi, I'm a fall 2011 hopeful too (of course). I haven't applied yet, we must have applications in by June. We are on a point system where most of the points come from your TEAS V score and your grades...

  23. Planning advice needed

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to Whole Life's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I went to school and took most of my prereqs off and on throughout my oldest child's young life. I wasn't planning on nursing but I took all my prereqs then except for the sciences. It was a great way...

  24. Fall '11 Shelton State hopeful. Good Backup Schools?

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to BelleNscrubs04's topic in Alabama Nursing

    Thanks for the replies. Sorry it took so long for me to respond. A&P and Chemistry are keeping me VERY busy so I haven't been on here very much. I'll look into all of those programs. I had...

  25. Spring 2011 Physio AND Micro

    BelleNscrubs04 replied to DarkBluePhoenix's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have no idea about my teachers. I don't even know who will be teaching it yet. I'm taking chemistry and A&P 1 this semester and it's a whole lot of work but somehow I'm doing it. I'm just hoping...
