    Feline Dissection

    Exhaustipated replied to Glycerine82's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had a hard time with it, too, even though our cats were feral. Two things helped me. 1) I did my best to avoid looking at our cat's face; and 2) I approached it clinically. It wasn't a sweet little...

    Questioned on what field i will be going into

    Exhaustipated replied to lewliet's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm often asked the same question, and my response is always the same. I'm keeping my options open. I don't have a preference yet, but I'm sure I'll find out in clinicals which specialities appeal to...

    Exhaustipated replied to bellamia1015's topic in Georgia Nursing

    You don't hear much about unions in Georgia, but if you want to know about them in general, there's an entire forum about them here at AllNurses: Collective Bargaining / Nursing Union, including a few...

    Exhaustipated replied to Brian's topic in General Students

    My study partner and I are in our 4th semester of studying together. We've had other people study with us from time to time forming study groups, but the two of us seem to be the core. We've found we...

    Is your hometown in Georgia? I can't speak for adults, and I don't know how far back it goes, but Georgia's Immunization Registry is computerized. I just had to order immunization records from my...

    Wcccd Nursing Program and Fafsa

    Exhaustipated replied to Keeka_Prenurse13's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I can't speak for every school, but I'm told that you must be at least a part-time student to qualify for federal financial aid. Where I attend, that's 6 credit hours. As a part time student, you...

    Who started studying yet?

    Exhaustipated replied to ImDaMan11's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I didn't do any studying for upcoming classes between semesters because I honestly needed the mental break. After spring A&P I, summer A&P II, and fall microbiology, I was burnt. However, I...

    A lot of us here, and a lot of us in school. I'm 44 and applying to my program. I'll be 45 when I start, and 47 when I sit for the NCLEX. My oldest will be starting college when I start the program,...

    C in Comp 1 in 2005...but have a Bachelors

    Exhaustipated replied to centexnurse313's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If the programs you're looking at are really GPA competitive, I might look into CLEPping those classes, if your school accepts that. If you think repeating the courses would be beneficial and you have...

    Exhaustipated replied to miraclesofbirth's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Don't let age hold you back from furthering your education, as long as that's what you really want to do. I'm 44 and am in the process of applying for the nursing program at my school (finished...

    Accredited Nursing Schools

    Exhaustipated replied to Autumn94's topic in Tennessee Nursing

    Is the nursing program at Nashville State a new one? The school I go to (and am hoping to get in to for nursing) had only provisional accreditation until they graduated their first class. Once that...

    Microbiology Scare

    Exhaustipated replied to Keeka_Prenurse13's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had both A&P I & II prior to Micro, and I think taking those A&P's first really helped, because there was a lot of cross information. In my school, A&P I is a prerequisite to Micro,...

    How Does Athens Tech Nursing Program Work? Please Answer!!

    Exhaustipated replied to ajp1622's topic in Georgia Nursing

    milesamelia covered everything pretty well. The only thing I would add is to go to and read the Athens Tech website thoroughly. A lot of the information you need is right there. Also, Athens Tech...

    Exhaustipated replied to ebrooks1013's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I don't know if HOPE or Pell do; that's something you would have to ask the financial aid office. I think if you get student loans, they would automatically go to cover tuition as long as you're at...

    What tape recorder do you prefer?

    Exhaustipated replied to havehope's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My study partner uses one of those and she LOVES it. It's pretty convenient, and she's able to go directly to certain parts of the lecture with relative ease. I should have added in my earlier post...

    What tape recorder do you prefer?

    Exhaustipated replied to havehope's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've seen people using their iPhones or various tablets. Since I had neither, I picked up a dedicated unit that hooks up to my computer via USB. Mine is the Olympus VN-81000PC. There's apparently a...
