  1. Santa Fe College ASN Class of 2014!!

    gatormommy replied to ASNHopeful2012's topic in Florida Nursing

    Iclicker allows you to answer questions in the lecture hall; it is not for testing, just practice questions. They can find out if you don't have it and will hound you until you get one. I bought my...

    gatormommy replied to ASNHopeful2012's topic in Florida Nursing

  3. Santa Fe 2011 ASN Hopeful???

    gatormommy posted a topic in Florida Nursing

    I am not very optimistic about my chances of getting into Santa Fe ASN program although I'm still going to try. I do feel confident about next year's program. As far as the 'point system' goes this...

    gatormommy replied to gatormommy's topic in Florida Nursing

    So I've gotten a little busy, but I just wanted to let you know that there are quite a few people I know that have jobs. I work but only 10-12 hours a week. There are some that work full-time and...

    gatormommy replied to gatormommy's topic in Florida Nursing

    Yes. I did. I really didn't think I had enough points. I was planning on applying again next year so I was very surprised when I got my letter. The first day of class was a mess. The whole day...

  9. Barry CRNA Interview

    gatormommy replied to CaliCVICURN's topic in Florida Nursing

    I'm not sure but I think the site for Ocala/Gainesville may be Shands in Gainesville. Housing in Gainesville is pretty inexpensive, but gas, food, and taxes are outrageous. We have many tax exempt...

  11. ADN class of 2013

    gatormommy replied to SC APRN's topic in General Students

    My first day of class is the 22nd which will also be orientation. My husband keeps asking about my schedule, he has to have his vacation days put in, but I won't find out anything until

  12. Need Some Advice (2nd degree student, asn vs. bsn related)

    gatormommy replied to ejf88's topic in General Students

    See.....you seem like you have a plan A and a plan B. That's perfect. I'm love Chemistry too (took analytical chem for fun........I know, I'm a masochistic nerd). What is Chem 3? I took a year of...

  13. Has anyone started studying for medical dosage calculation test yet?

    gatormommy replied to RNinthemaking1986's topic in General Students

    Before I knew what book we were using I bought this book; I really like it, but I still prefer dimensional analysis, with so many years of chemistry it's hard to calculate any other

  14. Need Some Advice (2nd degree student, asn vs. bsn related)

    gatormommy replied to ejf88's topic in General Students

    So you're 3 yrs out regardless of what you do. You can go for the BSN and end up with a higher tuition repayment. Or you can go for the ASN, try to appeal your financial aid or have a relative help...

  15. Has anyone started studying for medical dosage calculation test yet?

    gatormommy replied to RNinthemaking1986's topic in General Students

    My school uses the same book. I figured math is math and it would probably benefit me to start this book early. I'm good at math but terrified of it (kinda like my love/hate ralationship with...

  16. your gpa

    gatormommy replied to JonB04's topic in General Students

    Overall gpa 2.3 (barely high enough for a CC), pre-req gpa 3.75. Acceptance based on point system; having A's and a high pre-req gpa helps. Starting asn program in 2 days. Uni didn't like my low cum...

  17. My novel and words of inspiration to share with current students & soon to be GN!

    gatormommy replied to ~Mi Vida Loca~RN's topic in General Students

    Thank you for posting such an inspiring thread. After reading about so many GNs not being able to find jobs, I was starting to second guess my decision to become an RN. My sister even told me to stay...

  18. What are your nursing school uniform colors?

    gatormommy replied to RNinthemaking1986's topic in General Students

    Our policy is pretty lax. We just have to wear royal blue tops and pants. Our shoes are white, nursing or athletic, with minimal color and minimal openings. Any brand any

  19. Tired of Pre-Reqs

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

    Not to toot my own horn but, I so thought I was going to have to have this conversation as well. As it turns out, by the grace of God, I did get in this year. My conversations are more like: "I'm...

  20. Santa Fe College ASN Class of 2013

    gatormommy replied to LittleBirdie's topic in Florida Nursing

    LittleBirdie- I'm paranoid of the same thing. I'll be dropping my daughter off at Sonshine day (maybe a mile away from SFC), on the first day of school. I'm afraid of getting stuck in the Hidden Oak...

  21. OMG...I Love AN!!!!

    gatormommy replied to Butterfly0328's topic in General Nursing

    I know this is supposed to be a praise AN thread, but I would love to give a personal 'kudos' to xtxrn as well. I would like to thank you for 'sticking up' for me. That probably wasn't your intent...

  22. Santa Fe College ASN Class of 2013

    gatormommy replied to LittleBirdie's topic in Florida Nursing

    IT people are so cool. I was thinking the same thing with my laptop, getting an extra battery. I might try that first..........I really love my laptop, I might add some more RAM for better...

  23. Santa Fe College ASN Class of 2013

    gatormommy replied to LittleBirdie's topic in Florida Nursing

    Awesome! I was looking at that color and I thought it looked nice. Is your ASUS a netbook or a laptop? The one I was looking at is on amazon and it's called an A53U-XE1 entertainment laptop (a...

    gatormommy replied to LittleBirdie's topic in Florida Nursing

    I'm so excited, I've already started our dosage calculations book:) .............or maybe I'm terrified of failing the class. I'm such a nerd, my office is full of sticky notes, folders, highlighters,...

    gatormommy replied to I_See_You_RN's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

    I don't have syllabi as I haven't started nursing yet but I have lots of textbooks, studyguides, outlines for various topics all in pdf format. Would any of that help you? I'm always overly prepared...
