    Studying less and less as the program goes on

    maddiem replied to QuarterLife88's topic in General Students

    I don't want this to come off as mean...but the material we learn in nursing school is beyond important. When we become RN's people's lives are in our hands and everything we learn in nursing school...

    Physiology... How difficult??

    maddiem replied to Bryantgirl26's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Anatomy and physiology is a very difficult class. But If you take it very seriously and study your butt off, you will be okay! I have taken both sections of A&P and I got an A in both of them. My...

    have you ever failed a science pre-req more than once?

    maddiem replied to mee9mee9's topic in General Students

    No offense...but if you took A&P and got an F the first time. Why would you make the same mistake again and get an other F? Nursing school is all about study habits. If you can't focus on studying...

    maddiem replied to Jessily's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    No jobs for new nursing grads?! Please helppp!

    maddiem replied to futurenurse97's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm getting my CNA license this summer to get experience in the field. You will have an edge over the other new grads because you have patient care experience outside of clinicals. Don't be...

    Hello everyone! I'm looking into Chamberlain's Addison campus for starting in either the fall of this year or spring 2013. I have already completed a lot of the prerequisites, I'm just missing a few...

    Nurses and nursing students i have a important question?

    maddiem replied to futurenurse1248's topic in General Students

    I don't even know what test that is...some nursing schools may look at your act or sat score. Your take an entrance exam before nursing school and that is the test that really matters. Getting into a...

    Help! CNA, LPN, RN, BSN.....?

    maddiem replied to LilGumble's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There's not really a cna-rn program...cna is not a degree its a certificate. So you will just have to start a completely new program like an lpn, rn, or bsn program. There a few routs you can go. You...

    missed the pax

    maddiem replied to Fruit Sucker's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    PAX test is a national test. You can take it somewhere else and have it sent to your school or they can look it up on the database. Check with your school first though. I'm pretty sure you can do it...

    BA English or BSN?

    maddiem replied to Radha_LeiLei2009's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    A BA in English is not necessarily going to prepare you for nursing school. If your goal is nursing, I would start taking nursing prerequisites asap. Make sure you're ready to work hard though! BSN...

    What are the usual work hours? Also, some questions.

    maddiem replied to MissNancy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you get your Associates Degree in Nursing (ADN) you aren't "stuck". People who get their ADN most likely will move onto a RN-BSN program. ADN grads and BSN grads have the same license (registered...

    Questions on LVN-BSN bridging.

    maddiem replied to orangechickennn's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    First, is there a specific lvn-bsn you want to get into? Because different programs will have different requirements. Also, I'm not sure how things are on the west coast, but I've never heard of...

    Do I have any chances of getting into a nursing school?

    maddiem replied to LilFatAzn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Be aware that A&P in high school is absolutely NOT the same as taking it college! Its 10x harder and goes into GREAT detail. You have to take time out of every day to study so you don't fall...

    Not doing so hot what should I do about my classes.

    maddiem replied to kaysmom2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If I were you, I would drop the courses you are doing bad in and keep the good one. It will be better to have A's in replace of the W's instead of having D's or C's all across the board. Most nursing...

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

    I'm in A&P 2 as well and my class includes access to cadavers (yes...dead people who donated their bodies to science). I'm fortunate enough to go to a school that has great resources in the health...
