  2. Choosing a second bachelor's degree

    This is overly ambitious and I'm not completely sure it's necessary, but kudos for going for it. I think a B.S. (not B.A) in psych would come in handy in every nursing field. At my university, I...
  3. 1. Look into a CNA course 2. Sign up for your pre-req courses (Anatomy, Physio, Chem, etc.) - If you're feeling overwhelmed and under prepared look into taking introductory courses for the specific...
  4. Please help! Trying to get into BSN program!!

    First, don't panic. You can still get accepted into a good nursing school. GPA is important, but if you do well on your pre-reqs you should be able to bring up your GPA significantly. There are a few...
  5. University of Oklahoma Nursing Progam - San Diego

    The school doesn't exist anymore.
  6. Just started Pharm

    Which book are you guys using? I have the Kees and Hayes, 6th edition. I purchased a study guide too, which helped me out tremendously. Pharm is definitely a hard class, but with the right tools and...
  7. It depends on the program you're interested in. I'm going to do an accelerated bsn and they recommend absolutely no working. Considering that it is an 11 mos program, I really don't think I'll have...
  8. Helping Classmates

    That's funny that you fail to see your own self-serving bias. How's that Master's degree treating you? I guess we all can't be popular and well-liked after all! And no, I will not be revisiting this...
  9. TEAS how long on average to study.

    I didn't study. I bought the ATI book but never even looked at it. I did well not because I'm super smart, but it's the easiest standardized test ever. The TEAS is testing for basic skills, nothing...
  10. Any schools still accepting applications? PLEASE HELP!

    University of Southern
  11. My situation, what should I do? :(

    I'm confused. So you're not in the nursing program? The nursing program requires a lot more then just clinicals. You should look into other community colleges with nursing
  12. tired and discouraged pre- nursing

    Get tutoring for the chem class. I'm sorry to say, that it gets so much harder down the road. Be prepared to spend more time studying. Maybe, cut back to part-time working? If nursing is something you...
  13. Costs of random drug screening during nursing school?

    In my experience, they're bluffing. You might need to get one drug test before clinicals, but that's usually it. It's a scare
  14. Helping Classmates

    So because they don't like you they must have a mental disorder? That's obnoxious. If you didn't want to help then you shouldn't have. It's really that
  15. considering RN as career move, fears/concerns/questions

    Have you considered medical school and specializing in psychiatry? I really don't think it makes sense getting an associate's degree in your situation. Most employers want to see a BSN especially in...

  20. Anyone applying at Saddleback college?

    hayasa- to answer some of your questions....I applied to several nursing schools. It looks like you qualify for the absn programs. You should definitely apply to several absn, traditional bsn, and adn...
  21. Samford University

    I just found this and it looks like it would be helpful for the interview process. Good luck!
  22. Samford University

    Yay!
  23. Samford University

    Drexel is great, but I know it's super intense. My decision is based on price and nclex pass rates. I really don't know if I can handle an absn in 11 months. It might just make my head spin. I've...
  24. Samford University

    Thank you! I really can't decide which school. I'm leaning towards drexel because it's so short, but im also excited about vsu. I'm glad you only hear good things about samford. I really don't know...
  25. Samford University

    I know! They all want something a little different. I applied to a few schools and so far, I've been accepted by all of them except OU. I'm having a hard time really deciding if Samford is for me? Do...
