  1. Are people less likely to congratulate older or younger students for getting into RN?

    winterlights08 replied to Kadambari's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My family is sort of the same way, although they are supportive. My parents both went to college, but they didn't finish because they met and got married right away. My dad only had one year left, and...

  2. Is General Biology required for a BSN?

    winterlights08 replied to Pattycakes85's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had to take it as a prerequisite for the 200 level A&Ps and micro, which my school recommends for transferring to a 4 year

  3. HESI Every SINGLE Semester?

    winterlights08 replied to EarthhAngel2013's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    I have an Evolve password, where do I find these case studies/questions? I just had my health assessment HESI and scored 1175, but I would have liked to review more beforehand. I had looked on the...

  4. People really do ask you for medical advice! Wow...

    winterlights08 replied to tenjuna's topic in General Students

    I get it too from my family. My husband's skin problems, my friend's gallbladder, and just today I had to assess a tiny scab on my mother in law's leg that she thought was a tick. I just finished my...

  5. Pathophysiology

    winterlights08 replied to bear14's topic in General Students

    I'm finishing up a class that's basically an intro to pharm class, then I'll have pathophysiology in the fall...then three semesters of Pharmacology I,II,III. The three semester change supposedly was...

  6. Summer term students

    winterlights08 replied to Jack245's topic in General Students

    Me :). I had five classes this summer to catch up for fall (I'm a transfer student) and three 6-week classes dropped off two weeks ago. My last two classes will end early August and yes, I'm ready for...

  7. Prereqs

    winterlights08 replied to Lala potential LPN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I actually went to CCC (Blackwood Campus) and transferred to a 4 year school. I took most of my prereqs there, and just finished this past Spring. I applied to La Salle, Drexel, and Widener and ended...

  8. How's nursing school so far

    winterlights08 replied to DorothyR's topic in General Students

    I just started on the 14th of May and it's been a big adjustment. I went from 2-3 prereq classes at a time to 5 classes (3 finish next week though) and it's been a struggle keeping it all straight....

  9. Lasalle Achieve students/graduates, what was your gpa and nln score going in?

    winterlights08 replied to ThePhilster's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Kayak, I agree with you completely. I have a friend who is trying to get in there and they have done nothing but string her along. Granted she barely met the gpa requirement, but they have her taking...

  10. I failed.

    winterlights08 replied to hello sammi's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That is awesome!! :yeah:Truly a testament to sticking it out until the end--you never know what may

  11. Did anyone think that A&P II was an easier course than A&P I?

    winterlights08 replied to Ev1987's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    In retrospect, it was definitely easier. It wasn't so much memorization and more physiology as others have said. Also, in A&P 1, we were tested on five chapters a time..A&P II at the most was...

  12. Who all is waiting to apply/hear back for Fall 2012?

    winterlights08 replied to CRNBSN18's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I applied to Drexel also, thinking well, if it's the only place I get into then we will find a way to pay for it. Thankfully, I found myself in the position to have a choice, and when I got my...

  13. Bio Medical Ethics

    winterlights08 replied to StL_Momma27's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took it as online 7 week class, and I thought it was pretty easy. It was really just reading, essays, and forum discussions. It was actually pretty interesting, and I regret not taking it in person...

  14. LaSalle Achieve NLN scores/Fall 2012

    winterlights08 replied to HeatherL's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Thanks! I'm getting excited! I was looking forward to a summer break, but oh well. I'd probably end up twiddling my thumbs all summer antsy for fall to

  15. What's the first thing you'll buy when you're officially an RN?

    winterlights08 replied to mssjez's topic in General Students

    After I'm done school, we'll be going to Disney. My original plan was to take a cruise with hubby, but I think the whole family will need a vacation when I'm finished . After I start working, then...

  16. NLN Pre-Admission Exam

    winterlights08 replied to Raadauto's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took it last winter and I didn't think it was that rough. The study guide that truckinusa linked to is the one to get, it's very similar to the actual exam. It even comes with a CD so you can take...

  17. I'm finally finished!

    winterlights08 replied to sKris's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What a great feeling! Congrats! I'll be finished mine next week...I too remember my first class back after so long (Intro to Chem). I was a nervous wreck, I thought I was going to puke . Now here I am...

  18. Fall 2012 new nursing students roll call!!!

    winterlights08 replied to ixchel's topic in General Students

    I was accepted for the fall for a BSN program and was able to start pre-clinical classes this summer for fall clinicals...so I'll be starting May 14 I've been mentally and physically gearing up while...

  19. A&P....love it or hate it?

    winterlights08 replied to snow_bear's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I can't believe my A&P II is almost over . This has been my most favorite class ever, probably due to a great (in my opinion) professor who has a way of explaining things so they stick. I was...

  20. LaSalle Achieve NLN scores/Fall 2012

    winterlights08 replied to HeatherL's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Heather, I haven't heard from them....I had emailed Kristen a few weeks ago because I had a feeling that I wasn't going to have a decision before the spring semester was over (I'm finishing my...

  21. A&P 1 Question

    winterlights08 replied to Orizza's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    To get a headstart for A&P 1, I would just review the chemistry/cell biology stuff that you might not remember well from bio or chem. My college doesn't divide it up that way--all the anatomy in...

  22. Accelerated program - Would you do it?

    winterlights08 replied to havehope's topic in General Students

    That sounds like how I'll be spending my summer . I wasn't planning on starting until Fall, but I was given this option and after thinking about it I decided to go for it. I don't know if you're...

  23. Beginning a 4 year nursing program in the fall of 2012...any advice??

    winterlights08 replied to Brooke13's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congratulations on getting accepted! My advice is to treat each of your classes, no matter how "non-nursing" it seems, as a nursing class. Obviously actual nursing classes are going to be on a...

  24. Intro to Computer Science... Online?

    winterlights08 replied to AaronsMommyxx's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Right, there is a difference between computer science and computer literacy (that's what I had). I think most schools require the literacy/intro to computers class. They just want you to be computer...

  25. Intro to Computer Science... Online?

    winterlights08 replied to AaronsMommyxx's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I didn't take mine online, but I wish I had. I think it would have been really easy, considering I didn't get much out of the class. It was only for 7 weeks and an overview of Word, Excel, PP. We...
