  1. Who is worried about their first test?

    I'm taking my first A&P test in a couple of hours. I've been studying like mad and am still feeling unprepared- it's just so much information! Good luck
  2. Fall back plan?

    Nope, no fall back. I'm completing my "other" bachelors degree at the same time, since I'm really close to finishing. It's in English, but it's not a fall back per say as much as I think it may...
  3. You should try posting about the specific program under the regional area. Good luck with your
  4. Finally accepted after two years!

    YAY!
  5. I hate chemistry!

    I have a workbook- Chemistry for Biology students. It's AWESOME. It's really helped me get the hang of basic chem. I like that it makes you work out the problems, so it engages you to think which...
  6. How is your A&P teacher?

    I like my teacher. She's teaching it online, and it very communicative and helpful. It's a TON of information, and I think that a bad teacher would make it a lot harder. I'll have to see if I still...
  7. I'm knocking out A&P I and II (as 8 week classes) and psych. I was just showing my daughter my high school scrapbook and apparently took both Psych and Econ as AP classes. I'm going to have to...
  8. Took my HESI A2 this morning!

    Congrats on such a great
  9. This is a list of 2nd degree programs. Good luck! http://www.bestnursingdegree.com/programs/accelerated-bsn/ ETA: I see someone beat me to it. It's a good list.
  10. Surviving and PASSING A&P

    I'm taking both A&P classes, accelerated, online this semester. Eeeek. I'm a little nervous. I keep checking online to see if they instructor has posted the syllabus yet so I know what to get...
  11. Do the pre-reqs for all three and then apply. They're all competitive programs, I'd go where you get a spot. Then you can make a choice if you get into more than 1. In the same area, there is also...
  12. Online chemistry vs in class

    I think that since you still have to go the lab in person, you're probably safe to take the class online. You'll still have in person help once a week if you need
  13. Who excited about the new semester

    I'm excited! My husband was making fun of the fact that I've almost finished a "Chemistry for Biology Students" work book before classes even start. I'm picking up the last of my books today, and I'm...
  14. Hopeful... But very discouraged

    Just keep trying. There are many places who will look at either your most recent 60 hours or your last few years rather than your overall GPA. There are also some that only look at your GPA from your...
  15. I'm not going to post mine, but it talks about when I realized I wanted to be a nurse. For me, the story has to do with my son's NICU stay and wanting to be one of those women who not only were taking...
  16. A&P 1, 8 weeks, A&P 2 8 weeks

    I'm doing it this semester! I think it's going to be a lot of work, but doable. I hope we both do
  17. Am I setting myself up to fail?!

    You can do it! I'm taking 11 credits this semester and my little bitty is only 4 months old. I've been out of school for about 5 years, but it'll come to you. I find that being willing to work hard is...
  18. There are quite a few programs who will weigh your more recent GPA or just your GPA in your pre reqs. Just look around at all the nursing programs in your area. And repeating your classes just shows...
  19. eligible for 4 year BSN?

    It's going to vary like the previous posters have said. Lots of places with take you as a transfer. However, if you know you want to do a 2 year program, you can also research direct entry MSN...
  20. GENERAL ED LENGTH

    I think for most people they take about a year, sometimes 2 for a BSN. I'm surprised you need a whole year prior to LVN. Here the only pre-reqs are high school level biology and
  21. Prerequisites, Advice..Questions.

    It's going to depend on both your learning style and how the subject is presented. I do well with online classes, but I do have to set a schedule for myself so that they get the time they deserve. And...
  22. Just got off the phone with both Student Services and the nursing department. They might approve it, but we just don't know yet. It sounds like they are going to, but they weren't able to give me an...
  23. here's what the bio department said. i'm hoping then nursing program is going to start accepting bio 150. i'm going to ask that today. "the biology department sets the pre-reqs for the bio 205...
  24. Or you can take Micro online. It looks like CConline has a micro class designed specifically for health majors. And EDUKAN has online micro too. I'm going to email the bio department and see if they...
  25. I did some research and you can take both A&P classes online as 8 week sessions, so in one semester, then Micro the next. I'm still not sure about micro approval without chemistry, but Nova does...
