2. Anyone waiting on Acceptance/Rejection Letter '2012

   AshleyAmzing replied to PedsHopeful's topic in Pre-Nursing

   They figure that to be a nurse, you need to be confident in your calculations. They give you I think twice or maybe even three times to make a 100, but if you don't and someone that was wait listed has, they'll take your place. I'm currently in Medic...

3. advice on nursing school???!!

   AshleyAmzing replied to sweetie23's topic in Pre-Nursing

   The fact that you've been accepted in a program, I would run with that. I understand your fear of not knowing anyone or afraid that it will take a while to make friends, but other than one or so person, I know of no one that is starting the program w...

   Exactly what PedsHopeful said, there is a 6 month waiting to retake. One of the schools that I went to had it set up that basically you could only take the test once prior to they granted admissions into the school. For example, they had their first ...

10. Applying to Nursing School

    AshleyAmzing replied to k8telynn's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I'm a military wife and my suggestion to you is to wait to be with him until after you've completed your program of study. If your plan is to get married, do so, but stay where you are and finish your program. You've done 4 years, another year should...

11. Is nursing the correct major for me? Help!!!

    AshleyAmzing replied to ekim48's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Did you take any type of aptitude test in high school? If not, I believe that they offer them in college as well. Those are great for finding out what you're naturally good at. I would suggest looking into taking one of those to help steer you in the...

12. is it possible to take all these classes at once?

    AshleyAmzing replied to pixiestudent2's topic in Pre-Nursing

    While it's doable, I would not suggest heavy lab classes at once. I took my lab science classes one by one each semester while taking my other general education requirements for the program. It allows me to focus more on the coursework for those clas...

    Yes! I looked at mine for two hours, drove around with it, and even still needed my husband to tell me to open it. It was almost like I didn't want to.

    Good luck! I applied at the end of August and finally received a letter yesterday. Longest 6 weeks of my life and I couldn't even open the letter when I received it. I promised my husband, who is currently deployed overseas, that I would wait to open...
