Out of curiosity, I currently have a BA and I will be finishing my MBA this year. I just got accepted to a nursing program for Spring 2012. Is there anyone who has found their degrees in other areas to be useful in their field of nursing in any cap...

How long does it take to get results from Hesi exam?

Thanks guys. I'm so nervous. And congrats to you 94%, that's awesome!

Is a calculator provided for the entire math section or just certain parts?

I wouldn't give up so fast if I were you. You have the passion and trust me you don't want to walk away from your dream and then later regret it. Find you another job and see if you feel the same way. It may just be that particular job.

I'm sorry but this applies to pretty much any field you go into now. So please don't let that discourage you. I have a Bachelors degree in another field from two years ago and I still hadn't found a job in that field. Thank God I had a decent job al...

Did they send an email or letter?

Me too, nothing yet. They have two of my transcripts and I'm waiting on my final grades to post so that they can get my other. They said that they could determines acceptance from those two though. I know of four people who have all gotten acceptance...

Oops, I was going to say I understand your dilemma. It's easy for others to say don't choose option 3. But considering the 2.0 GPA, it IS going to be difficult. Many look down on option 3 because the opportunities are limited. For instance, would you...

I understand your dilemma.

I have been a nervous reck lately with finals and getting all my ducks in a row to apply for all of the different programs. So here is my issue, I had a very low undergrad GPA a few years back. I graduated with a horrible 2.4. I didn't pull it toget...

Question? So if my GPA is a 2.5, But i have repeated several classes for better grades, will my GPA actually be lower once they have factored in the other attempts? My transcript shows excluded from GPA on the classes that I have retaken. I hope this...

I haven't heard anything yet either. I am so nervous. I heard they don't start clinicals until 2014 though. I will have my pre-reqs completed this summer. What would I do until then if I'm accepted? I already have Bachelors so I have all my generals...

I am considering applying at a school an hour away. Just wondering, how long is your commute to your nursing program going to be? The weather in my small city is kind of unpredictable. So I am kind of nervous about it. I live in Tennessee. Do you thi...

I opened up more options for myself when I started looking at schools a little further away. I think they may be a little less competitive too since they are all in very small counties.

It's not impossible. A&p is a challenging subject. Just know that you will need to buckle down and study hard. Your A&p book should have a website that has crossword puzzles, flash cards, and quizzes. Be sure to use those. Always read ahead!...

Make an A in Micro and I'm sure you will be fine.

Thanks, I this makes me feel so much better. I can't do anything but apply and see now. I have at least 6 schools on my list now. I want this so bad. I hate that I was so immature years ago. If this doesn't work then it looks like I have to take ano...

I have posted similar to this before. I am really trying to evaluate my options here. Here is my scenario: Bachelors degree 2.35 gpa (extremely low) MBA degree program 3.5 GPA (half finished) Science pre reqs retaken 4.0 Now application deadlines...

Thanks for your comments guys. I'm gonna go for it. I am applying to 4 different programs and now I can add 1 more to my list. Im so excited! I will be applying in June and october.

I have a friend that attended an accelerated BSN program that's 1 year here. She worked for a year while applying for NP program which is also 15 months. She hasn't had a problem finding a job here. I am hoping to take a path similar to hers. I don'...

Well at the schools that I am applying to pre-reqs are required. Which include chem, micro, a&p, etc. You have to take pre-reqs before applying. All schools have different requirements. The curriculum is four semesters after pre-reqs and actually...

Congrats, I will be done this summer. I can't wait! I'm applying for Jan 2013 start. I wish I did have 9 options to apply to. So far I only have 4. I am so anxious. I can't stop thinking about school. Im somewhat overwhelmed by the deadlines, tests,...

Well the actual program itself takes two years at the institutions Im applying to. That doesn't include the pre-reqs A&P 1, engl, psych, and math depending on your institution. It may take a extra semester or two for someone to finish pre-reqs. B...

I am currently accepted into the Spring program which starts on January 3. I haven't completely made my mind up wheather or not I want to start at the LPN level or go straight through the RN level. Right now I'm trying to compare cost. I was told ...
