Truckinusa - not sure if you are talking to me or the OP but I am in a BSN program at a CA State University.

I had both mental health and community health in the spring and to be honest I wasn't crazy about either course and was very happy to finish out the semester. I thought I would not like mental health at all and actually liked it and its clinical qui...

I bought an iPad my 2nd semester of NS and have had it for a little over a year. I use it all the time in class for notes and pulling up the Powerpoint to follow along. I love having it as it is so light and all my notes for all my classes are save...

I loved my Peds and OB rotation, it was my very favorite semester! I also liked my OB days at the hospital (PP, L&D, NICU) much more than my pediatric days because my patients often cried and were scared every time somebody came into the room (un...

Our hospice assignment really stuck out for me from my mental health clinical this semester. We were assigned a day at a hospice house or a day with a home hospice nurse and then had to write about the experience in a paper. It doesn't quite fit int...

I just finished my 2nd year of NS yesterday (our BSN program is 3 years)!! I am so excited to start my final year in August and get back into the hospital (we had psych and community health this semester). Yay for the class of 2014!!!

I have worked part time since I started my BSN program 2 years ago (1 year left!) and have always managed well. I usually work 2 days per week, for a total of 12-16 hours a week which is a good amount for me. Working during NS is very doable, you j...

I recommend taking statistics if you can. I know you said you're taking geometry but if there's any way to take stats I would. It is a pre-requisite for most nursing programs and if you take it AP it may even transfer to college. If not you will b...

Not sure what area of CA you live in, but here in N. CA we have lots of Dick's Sporting Goods - do a quick Google search and see if there are any around you!
