  1. Nursing School Insurance and Pre-Existing Condition

    DowntheRiver replied to jwrands's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I can't PM yet. You can email me at [email protected] though. My school doesn't have a SHIP though they did give us options if we needed

  2. NLN scores high enough?

    DowntheRiver replied to Shanny246's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think you should be fine! You scored 14, 42, and 18 above the percentile that you needed. I'd say be worried if you scored 51-55 percentile but you scored above that. How is your GPA? Is it...

    DowntheRiver replied to jwrands's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have a pre-existing condition (Hodgkin Lymphoma Stage 2B 3+ years in remission, pericardial effusion) and I was still able to get health insurance recently as I just started nursing school through...

  4. Should I take physics in highschool or no? why or why not

    DowntheRiver replied to futurenurse1248's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I didn't take physics in high school and I still got into college (FSU). I took Biology, Chemistry, Anatomy and Physiology, Astronomy, and AP Environmental Science. Physics did not appeal to me at...

  5. Role Call Galen Tampa Bay Spring 2012!

    DowntheRiver replied to lalaRN2014's topic in Florida Nursing

    I don't know about the PAX-PN but I do know about the PAX-RN. I just studied from the book about two weeks before taking the test. I mostly reviewed math and English. Science is hard because it is so...

    DowntheRiver replied to prettyinblu's topic in LPN to RN

    Daina, About how much time did the online classes take? I start February 6th. Also, is there anything you can share about your

    DowntheRiver replied to missmina's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Your parents most likely will come around one way or another. My mom is the same way. I am going to school to get my ASN. My mom wanted me to go for my BSN. There is no other option to her. Getting my...

  8. Role Call Galen Tampa Bay Spring 2012!

    DowntheRiver replied to lalaRN2014's topic in Florida Nursing

    I have an e-mail from University of Tampa directly that states that they DO accept Galen nursing credits. However, they do not accept their Gen Ed requirements because they are not regionally...

  9. Pax Exam

    DowntheRiver replied to neww's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I reviewed Science but the Science section is SO broad that there truly is no prepping for it. There is some Physics on it but only one or two questions. A lot of people say to study Physics but there...

  13. Pax Exam

    DowntheRiver replied to neww's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would definitely get the most updated version. Where are you located? If you are in Tampa area you can borrow or buy mine for cheap? I studied with it for two weeks before the test and focused...

  14. Role Call Galen Tampa Bay Spring 2012!

    DowntheRiver replied to lalaRN2014's topic in Florida Nursing

    I have to take English just because I tested out of it my freshman year. I didn't take any other nursing pre-reqs as I did not know this is what I wanted to do until recently hence why I chose Galen....

  15. PAX-PN entrance score for Galen

    DowntheRiver replied to ajwill824's topic in General Nursing

    Just study from the recommended book. I actually took the PAX-RN but I know it is similar. Just two weeks before the test I spent four to five hours a day reviewing math and science. I focused mostly...

  16. #!@$ I hate cancer

    DowntheRiver replied to CheesePotato's topic in General Nursing

    I'm a cancer survivor. I was 21 when I was diagnosed with Stage 2B Hodgkin Lymphoma. Because of my age I was grouped with the younger adults. I honestly cannot call them children despite how young...

    DowntheRiver replied to lalaRN2014's topic in Florida Nursing

    You can check on campus. I remember during my tour that I saw books for sale on the bulletin board. I've gone back and forth with a few people on previous posts over Galen stuff so maybe you could...

  19. Associate Degree in Nursing to BSN?

    DowntheRiver replied to danielle93's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you can get into the BSN program I say go for it. I don't know where you're located but in my part of the country people go the ASN route due to the BSN route being way more competitive. I'm going...

    DowntheRiver replied to lalaRN2014's topic in Florida Nursing

    I am! I started a thread on here before they redid the page and somehow it disappeared. My old username doesn't work anymore, either! I am very excited to do this! I am nervous because I have heard it...
