  1. RIDICULOUS RULES!

    Cherry02 replied to Mrs.Priss's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    i don't think you are eligible because you haven't been separated from "all institutions" for 4 years before enrolling. however, if i'm wrong and you are eligible, it only wipes out your credits from...

  2. Summer Classes a Good Idea?

    Cherry02 replied to VIMom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would definitely take a class in the summer. I'd rather have A&P (or physiology) by itself in a condensed form than to take it with a full load of

  3. How does one know if nursing is the right career?tips?

    Cherry02 replied to Jfarmboy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes, you can take online courses. I would avoid an all-online, for-profit school if you can take them through a community college or a not-for-profit school. Your transcripts won't even show that the...

  5. How does one know if nursing is the right career?tips?

    Cherry02 replied to Jfarmboy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with your husband! I think it is normal to be nervous about performing certain procedures...in fact, it is probably abnormal if you don't feel the slightest bit nervous at first! I am not sure...

  6. Do you need math?

    Cherry02 replied to Aransome's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Like I said on the other thread, not a nursing student or nurse...but if you are doing research or trying to comprehend someone else's research, you need to understand statistics. As far as other...

  7. A&P 2!!

    Cherry02 replied to hello sammi's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    We haven't dissected anything yet. Not sure when we will. This week we did experiments with blood (our own). Still pretty

  8. MATHHHHH! HELP!

    Cherry02 replied to Aransome's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Honestly, I have never taken a single algebra class in college. For my other degree (not exactly math or science related) I had to do a lot of math for astronomy, chemistry, 2 statistics classes, and...

  9. Essay about suicide

    Cherry02 replied to tlc1986's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am glad you were able to find inspiration following something so horrible...but I generally try to stay away from super controversial topics for school papers. I feel that the topic of suicide...

  10. Why am I taking Zoology.....ugh

    Cherry02 replied to RM27's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Honestly, I think it is weird too. I looked at the curriculum for the different tracks, and I noticed the RN-BSN track requires the regular anatomy and physiology classes. I am curious why the BSN...

  11. When does your Spring Semester start and what r u taking?

    Cherry02 replied to ginna121's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Microbiology starts Jan. 9 and A&P 2 starts Jan. 17...last 2 prereqs...can't wait to be

  12. Fall semester. AP2 and Micro together a bad idea?

    Cherry02 replied to Hibbzem17's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm also taking A&P 2 and microbio in the spring. I'm taking A&P at my current university and microbio at a nearby community college (my university won't let me take both in the same...

  13. Confused on Pre-reqs

    Cherry02 replied to RNhopeful21's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Do they have direct entry for high school students? My school does, so in that case A&P 1 is recommended for their first semester. Everyone else has to take it as a prereq. If the school doesn't...

  14. Should I Take Micro or A&P II Over the Summer???

    Cherry02 replied to summerzippsalong's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just finished A&P I and I'm taking A&P II in the spring. My school used to offer the A&Ps in the summer but not anymore. I am wondering if it has something to do with a lower success...

  15. Biology is required for BSN?

    Cherry02 replied to Skylarslaughter's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Biology is not a nursing prereq at my school, although if you do take it, it satisfies the prereq for A&P. However, chemistry also satisfies the A&P prereq and that IS also a nursing prereq...

  16. Can i become a rn with a ged?

    Cherry02 replied to NEVERGIVEUP3's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just echoing what others already said, but you absolutely can become an RN with a GED! I have one too, and I plan on applying to an ABSN program next month! I'm not going to let my past hold me back...

  17. How hard is sociology ?

    Cherry02 replied to gardenfan's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Sociology usually does involve writing...but basic sociology classes are pretty easy, in my experience. I actually love sociology (especially social psychology), and even majored in it, lol. I know a...

  18. First step complete!

    Cherry02 replied to MissyBee4983's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congrats! That is wonderful!

  19. GPA Issues- Apply or Not?

    Cherry02 replied to missmisty1988's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This is unacceptable. An easily fixable error on your transcripts shouldn't make you ineligible for nursing school. Have you gone in there to talk to them in person? I have had issues at my school...

  20. Prerequisites Question

    Cherry02 replied to Changeup's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think some schools make an exception to the 5-year expiration date if your degree is in something such as biology. I would definitely call around and find

  21. How long did it take you to complete your prerequisites?

    Cherry02 replied to julibyrd's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If those are the classes you have to take, then it will probably take you no less than 3 semesters...I'd say ideally 4....but up to 5. I started my prereqs this past summer and I should be finishing...

  22. Nursing vs. Child Psychology

    Cherry02 replied to Zelda, RN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Do what you feel will be most fulfilling. However, nurses don't HAVE to get a graduate degree, whereas psychologists definitely do--usually a doctorate. Personally, I think nurses can make just as...

  23. I need a advice....Big time on pursuing a career in Nursing

    Cherry02 replied to chanise718's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I also have a degree in sociology (and minor in psychology), and with that degree I had completed all prereqs except A&P, microbio, and nutrition. I think you probably have more prereqs done than...

  24. Taking it slow... anyone else?

    Cherry02 replied to EventuallyANurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you are happy and confident in your decision, then it is the right choice. I'm 27 with 2 kids, 7 and 3...and I had/have the exact same 4 prereqs you will have. For me, I wish I had gotten this out...

  25. When to Apply to Nursing School..?

    Cherry02 replied to Cherry02's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for the responses everyone! I made an appointment with the nursing advisor, so I will know for sure soon. I might also look into taking microbio at a community college in the spring instead of...
