  1. Bipolar and going into nursing

    PghRN30 replied to PghRN30's topic in General Nursing

    I'm sorry I guess I was not really clear. I have no doubt in my own ability to get through nursing school or be a nurse. I know I have control of the illness and do not let it control me. I know...

  2. What Should I Do This Summer??

    PghRN30 replied to natasharostova's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Honestly, i don't know for sure, so my word might not be the best. But first off, if you are applying in the spring (2011) neither would even be on your application at all, so it wouldn't matter on...

  3. How long is your NS drive?

    PghRN30 replied to OBplease's topic in General Students

    Where I am taking my pre-reqs is 25-30 minute drive. Nursing school where i start in Feb is 2 blocks from me....downhill. So I will be walking. Not even long enough drive to heat up the car by the...

  4. I have an old(8 yr) felony

    PghRN30 replied to jackiejames's topic in Licensure: Criminal History

    I think this is a question for your state board of nursing. It is very possible you could go to school and get your degree, just to come out the other end and find out you can not be licensed. Find...

  5. How to deal with a rude classmate?

    PghRN30 replied to esunada's topic in General Students

    First I don't see anything she did as being rude.....she just is not flat out friendly with you....and you can not expect that from everyone. Who knows why other then her, but is it really that big of...

  7. St Margaret SON Feb 2011 start?

    PghRN30 replied to PghRN30's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    My fun tonight.....wish we were videotaping it. My dad had family over for dinner, and they had a congratulations icecream cake for me getting into nursing school. Well my aunt and my son were...

  8. Young Single Mother taking pre-nursing classes...is this a good idea?

    PghRN30 replied to antajshalakiag's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You should be eligable now. Once you have a child of your own you are not a dependent to your parents......you are a head of household with a dependent of your own(even if you live with your...

  9. St Margaret SON Feb 2011 start?

    PghRN30 replied to PghRN30's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I'm not sure where you are looking at taking yours...but there are MANY places that do have the class. I just registered to take mine today at a place in the Pittsburgh Mills mall that holds a class...

    PghRN30 replied to mylittlelulu's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    if i remeber correctly with natural science on rn one, its mostly anatomy, physiology and biology type questions. Some very basic chem. Few very basic physics, a couple of which are electrical...

  11. we cannot have acrylic fingernails

    PghRN30 replied to jh56031's topic in General Students

    Maybe you should point out to her all the lovely bacteria and virus that would love to make that surface home....and travel home with her. Espcially some lovely fecal-oral transmitted diseases she...

  12. Which reserves branch is least likely to go active?

    PghRN30 replied to icejog's topic in Government, Military

    You sorta contradict yourself with your own comments by first asking why people would join reserves if willing to go active, as if meaning that not willing to go active is the reasoning you would see...

  13. Which reserves branch is least likely to go active?

    PghRN30 replied to icejog's topic in Government, Military

    They are willing to go active, but dont want to be active military when they are not deployed. Military you are active military all the time...that is the job....and then you get deployed when need...

  14. Which reserves branch is least likely to go active?

    PghRN30 replied to icejog's topic in Government, Military

    Agree....wrong attitude. All branches go active....especially when we are actively engaged overseas.....and in 2 different places at that. What branch you are in just has to do with what kind of...

  15. CCAC Spring 2011

    PghRN30 replied to kmoty01's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I haven't applied to CCAC....just taking my prereqs there to go elsewhere, but I know I someone in my A&P class was asking one of the instructors about it because of not being sure what to do for...

  16. Can someone please recommend a good online program to take pre-reqs?

    PghRN30 replied to Austingirl73's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with not taking sciences online. Just about all other prereqs you can through almost any comunity college, but nursing schools require sciences with labs. I know some people on here know of...

  17. Pre-req's for Nursing

    PghRN30 replied to emdee577's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    ALWAYS check with the school itself. Many schools have prereqs, especially if accelerated, but some have NONE as long as you have Highschool degree within last 10 years with both bio and chem, as well...

  18. What a blow to my ego

    PghRN30 replied to letitbe_lindsay's topic in General Students

    The best way I ever heard "the stare" defined was "mommy eyes". That was from a guy I used to work with back when I used to work in food service. Apparently he would get it from myself and another...

  19. St Margaret SON Feb 2011 start?

    PghRN30 replied to PghRN30's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Probably....though I'm not sure of the specifications of that yet.....some schools you have to get a set/kit they have....some you are restricted to colors (black/navy/whatever), others you can get...

  21. St Margaret SON Feb 2011 start?

    PghRN30 replied to PghRN30's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Welcome and Congrats! I haven't really looked into where/when I can take CPR/AED class, though plan on probably doing it sometime in November or December.....but be careful or you might be wasting...

  22. St Margaret SON Feb 2011 start?

    PghRN30 replied to PghRN30's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Well just so you know, the one guy I know that knows that he is in, still hadn't gotten his either. Hopefully you get it today. Also the one woman in my A&P class also got a letter for June when...

  23. Nurses and marriage

    PghRN30 replied to Otessa's topic in General Nursing

    I thing trying to place someone as "underacheiving" compared to yourself is maybe the wrong way of looking at it. Not making as much money, or even saying at home and taking care of kids one may look...

  24. St Margaret SON Feb 2011 start?

    PghRN30 replied to PghRN30's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Hopefully you get it

  25. St Margaret SON Feb 2011 start?

    PghRN30 replied to PghRN30's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    If i were her i would at least contact them to make sure that wasn't a mistake. Maybe she put June without reallizing....or maybe they accidently put hers as a June app.....or made up did her letter...
