    Iridescent Orchid replied to DanielleMoore's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Every school is different, but I had to take Microcomputers, Writing, Basic College Mathematics, A&P I, and

    CNA Certification Program? (Middle Georgia)

    Iridescent Orchid posted a topic in Georgia Nursing

    I'm currently finishing up pre-reqs to get into a LPN Program, but would like a part-time job as a CNA. I can't seem to find any information on CNA programs in my area. I live in Warner Robins, close...

    Iridescent Orchid replied to bouncing's topic in General Students

    Unfortunately, I didn't see your previous thread on getting kicked out, so I don't know the circumstances and the story, but - I'm so happy for you! I'm glad that you had to opportunity to appeal and...

    CNA Certification Program? (Middle Georgia)

    Iridescent Orchid replied to Iridescent Orchid's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Ouch! I figured I'd run into a problem. If I get my stafford, I could take out a little additional for this if I needed to. I need to calculate the cost, because it's only 13 credit hours. I actually...

    CNA Certification Program? (Middle Georgia)

    Iridescent Orchid replied to Iridescent Orchid's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Thanks! I'll call MGT and see, but last I seen it was currently closed or inactive. I'd love to take it up there, considering that is currently where I am going to college. ---- edit: actually I see...

    Should I stop @ lpn or go on and get my rn?

    Iridescent Orchid replied to toshaann5's topic in LPN to RN

    You'll be doing a lot of the same things you will be doing as an LPN as an RN as well. Your counselor must have been misinformed by someone else or didn't know much about the tasks a RN must do on a...

    New Student Needing Encouragement :(

    Iridescent Orchid replied to aviatorgirl777's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Once you learn the time management involved and how much you truly need to devote to your studies, you can most certainly still have an active social life! You would definitely start feeling burnt out...

    Nursing Student Hair... I know sounds stupid right?

    Iridescent Orchid replied to ames2009's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yeah, that doesn't sound bad at all! I'd say have fun, go for it. Now if you were talking going for black underneath and platinum on top, or some other drastic/weird measures I'd be a bit worried, but...

    Nice and safe place to live in Warner Robins?

    Iridescent Orchid replied to FNPdude74's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Yeah, that's one place I'd say to try to stay your distance from. I went to NHS, it's the area that's bad ( I don't find the school too great either, but that's a different story. ) -- I remember...

    Should I take 5 classes at once?

    Iridescent Orchid replied to Nursing2102's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    For my Nursing Program my school already has our classes mapped out for each semester. For your first semester I think that would be just fine. For example my 1st semester Nursing, I have to take...

    What is your pre-nursing GPA?

    Iridescent Orchid replied to ToxicShock's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm at 3.8 right now, hoping to get A's in my last semester of pre-reqs, A&P and Psych to pull myself up to a 3.9 before

    Fellow student, BIG TIME user and cheater.

    Iridescent Orchid replied to hopeful_2013's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    They'll definitely be burnt out soon if they have no passion for this and to be cheating just to get by, they most certainly don't. I agree, they will either drop out themselves, or get weeded out!...

    Frustrated!!!!!!

    Iridescent Orchid replied to Donna2011's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I've learned financial aid offices are hard to get straight, clear answers from, it's always best to ride up there and talk to them face to face to see what is going on. I also start on 8/23 for my...

    Games for nurses, your help is wanted!

    Iridescent Orchid replied to Arkhr's topic in General Students

    I'm also going to opt for the Medical Math! That'd be a lot of help for us (especially those who are starting out and struggle a bit as I do), and of course, a lot of fun

    choosing profs

    Iridescent Orchid replied to JonB04's topic in General Students

    When I was in Early Childhood, I got to pick all of the classes I wanted to take. When I switched over to Practical Nursing, my school took over from there. I'd go to register, and I was told the...

    Pre-reqs This Fall

    Iridescent Orchid replied to TiTi4177's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You are very welcome and thanks, I appreciate it! It's always best to hold out on making a decision, after all, if you decided now, that you want to quit working once you get into the program, it'd be...

    What are you taking this semester?

    Iridescent Orchid replied to AliF's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm a mixture of excited and nervous myself! I am taking A&P and Psych as well! But just A&P I and Psych. They'll be both full semesters. It's required that we make no less than a B in A&P...

    What are your future nursing plans??

    Iridescent Orchid replied to FutureOBNurse2118's topic in General Students

    I'm still in pre-reqs, but I really am anticipating on getting in at working the ER. That's my dream right now. Once I get older and have a family, I want to tone it down and do Pediatric Nursing, but...

    Am I setting myself up to fail?!

    Iridescent Orchid replied to love.my.kids's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Go for it! I took English and Basic College Mathematics online, they were a piece of cake, and for the most part, I've been out of school for almost 5 years when I took these. I've heard Sociology is...

    Pre-reqs This Fall

    Iridescent Orchid replied to TiTi4177's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was also second-guessing myself in the beginning as well, so I was majoring in Early Childhood Education until I just realized it was not for me, Nursing was my calling and this is what I'm meant to...

    I'm in the same boat you are! I have A&P and Psychology left to take, which is in another 2 weeks! Honestly, I'm scared to death of A&P. I haven't had a class this demanding since High...
