  1. Things that gross you out..

    devyn renee replied to vintage_RN's topic in General Students

    Lower GI bleeds smell absolutely foul (imagine wet dog food and diarrhea mixed together and heated up in the microwave). I have yet to experience anything beyond a stage II pressure ulcer but I'm...

  2. Finishing Up Pre Reqs...FINALLY!

    devyn renee posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Who else is finishing up their last pre reqs for nursing this Fall? I am incredibly excited and lucky to have gotten into my last two pre reqs, Micro Bio and Physio, for Fall 2012. I'm also taking a...

  3. ADN or BSN?

    devyn renee replied to MrsBassett's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would say don't limit yourself on the type of degree you will be seeking. Regardless, an RN with a BSN and an RN with an ADN are both RN's and in almost all situations the make the same pay....

  4. Can't even get classes.

    devyn renee replied to mintygirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Minty Girl, you are not alone. I go to LBCC (also in CA) and it took me until my third semester to get into any of science pre reqs and I just BARELY got in. My anatomy professor was kind enough to...

  5. Still Feeling Crummy Months After an "Incident"

    devyn renee posted a topic in General Nursing

    I wanted to start off by saying that I'm a pre-nursing student and not an RN or anything else like that. I volunteer at a hospital near my house and am considered a "clinical volunteer" basically...

  6. Community college has a 7% graduation rate...

    devyn renee replied to Kadambari's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Not sure of the specifics but I was looking at my CC's graduation rates and they were around 10%. It looked at all students and was based on how many transfered to a four year university or earned a...

  7. Still Feeling Crummy Months After an "Incident"

    devyn renee replied to devyn renee's topic in General Nursing

    I just wanted to thank everyone for their responses! I have definitely become much more vocal with the nurses since this all happened which is definitely a good thing, especially for the patients I...

  8. chem 1 and ap 2

    devyn renee replied to beachlax's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took anatomy (our school teaches anatomy and physio separately instead of a&p1 and a&p 2), general chemistry, human development, critical thinking, and psychology. I believe it was 18 units...

  9. CSU San Marcos Accelerated Bachelor's Program

    devyn renee replied to socalprenurse08's topic in California Nursing

    I am not familiar with that school in particular but the CSU system is an absolute mess right now so I am going to assume that, yes, it is probably very difficult to get into. If you're a transfer...

  10. Pre-Nursing School Experience: Need Advice Please!

    devyn renee replied to SaraMC's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Since I am also a pre-nursing student and the OP mentioned volunteering I assumed she was look for the same "experience" I am, which may or may not be the same thing you interpreted it as. I thought...

  11. Pre-Nursing School Experience: Need Advice Please!

    devyn renee replied to SaraMC's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The people that see it that way are the ones who quit halfway through the training for the program. I have been in LTC care facilities before but before volunteering the last time I had been in a...

  12. Finishing Up Pre Reqs...FINALLY!

    devyn renee replied to devyn renee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Leenak, may I ask what is making you doubt yourself all of a sudden? I am pretty prone to self doubt as well as overwhelming anxiety and bouts of depression, especially when I look to the future. I...

  13. Pre-Nursing School Experience: Need Advice Please!

    devyn renee replied to SaraMC's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The particular program I am in is considered a "clinical internship" by the company that recruits us but as far as the hospital is concerned we are volunteers. I put "clinical internship" in quotes...

  14. Want to get job before going to nursing school

    devyn renee replied to lostsincedischarge's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Pretty much everyone I know who wants to go to nursing is going for CNA certification so that is a another option. CNA work honestly isn't very appealing to me so I was looking into EMT-B while I wait...

  15. Which degree to go for?

    devyn renee replied to PassionWithAPurpose's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I may have misinterpreted what you said in your original post and I am willing to admit that I also admit that I was not very clear in my own post. I am familiar with the CCNE position on the DNP but...

  16. Which degree to go for?

    devyn renee replied to PassionWithAPurpose's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you just want to work in L&D as an RN you do not need a masters degree, HOWEVER if you want to actually deliver babies in the L&D you need a masters to be certified as a Nurse Midwife. This...

  17. Pre-Nursing School Experience: Need Advice Please!

    devyn renee replied to SaraMC's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have to somewhat disagree with the comment above, they are correct that MOST volunteer positions in hospitals just have you delivering flowers and such but there are a few exist that do involve...

  18. Why are people so ignorant?

    devyn renee replied to peppapig123's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have one friend who insists (and truly believes) that his 1.5 GPA from a CSU is worth more than my 3.5 from a community college. It drives me absolutely INSANE. When I point out to him that he...

  19. Finishing Up Pre Reqs...FINALLY!

    devyn renee replied to devyn renee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congrats to everyone! My excitement has doubled hearing from all of you about being so close to nursing school too! I was getting so discouraged for a while since I got COMPLETELY shut out of micro...

  20. Finishing Up Pre Reqs...FINALLY!

    devyn renee replied to devyn renee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congrats you two! I hope everything works out for you Jennie. One more semester really isn't too bad when you think about, it's taken me five so far and it's going to be at least one more just waiting...

  21. 1st A&P Tests!

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

    We had our first anatomy exam on the 12th and our next exam is on Monday My school offers Anat and Physio as two different courses as opposed to a A&P I and A&P II course so it is a little...

  22. Applying for 6 nursing schools for Spring 2012

    devyn renee replied to BeachsideNic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    A lot of people I know who plan on transferring into a nursing program have their hearts set on one school and are only applying to that ONE school. I don't want to be one of those people that are...

  23. Applying for 6 nursing schools for Spring 2012

    devyn renee replied to BeachsideNic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    beachsidenic, are you going to LBCC or CSULB currently? I go to LBCC but I won't be ready for nursing school for another year. I was looking at CSULB's admission stats for the nursing program and they...
