  1. 2nd guessing nursing?!

    jocy_anne replied to Jennifer425RN2B's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow, 4 children under the age of 8? You are one of those inspirational women I spoke of in my last post! Lol. Yes, I'm sure things will definitely be stressful trying to juggle school and raising...

  2. 2nd guessing nursing?!

    jocy_anne replied to Jennifer425RN2B's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi Jennifer! I was accepted into an ABSN program about a week ago, and I do second guess my choice to go into nursing once in a while. For me, it has more to do with the fact that I'm 28 years old...

    jocy_anne replied to SopranoKris's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm only taking an 8-week Microbiology course, since it's the last prereq I have to fulfill before starting my ABSN program in September. I also thought about taking an online Medical Terminology...

  5. How many days till your pinning ceremony?

    jocy_anne replied to Wifeoffireman's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If only I knew what my graduation day is! I'm guessing it'll be May 12, 2014. If that's the case, then I only have 767 days! But there's a chance my program doesn't graduate until December. I'm...

    jocy_anne replied to peachshan's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I applied to a Fall 2012 ADN program (Our Lady of Lourdes in NJ) back in March 2011 when I decided I finally wanted to pursue my dream. Eventually, I decided that an ABSN program (Thomas Jefferson...

  7. Our Lady of Lourdes Nursing Program (Camden)

    jocy_anne replied to Rach1981's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    I don't mean to hijack this thread, but I just wanted to mention that I applied to OLOL for the Fall 2012 class and never really had any problems with the admissions process along the way. I thought...

    jocy_anne replied to PITTgal's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    jocy_anne replied to brenay's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took A&P II and Chemistry I in the Fall 2011 semester, and got A's in both classes. I'm 28, am not married and don't have any children, but do have a full-time job (45-50 hours/week). As long...

  10. General Ethics Course online, or in class in NJ?

    jocy_anne replied to Kelsea1214's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Haha, I just responded to your post on the Jefferson thread! Thank you so much! I think it would be good to take the intro ethics course. I've never taken one either, but I think it should be an...

    jocy_anne replied to PITTgal's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Thanks Kelsea!!! It is a very big relief! I have a lot of administrative and volunteer experience (mission trips, working with adolescents, etc.), but don't have any medical experience. The fact...

    jocy_anne replied to HealthKibitz's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had the same requirements. My school offered General Chemistry I & II, so I took the first semester in the Fall and am taking the second semester now. What's nice about the Gen Chem's is that...

  16. General Ethics Course online, or in class in NJ?

    jocy_anne replied to Kelsea1214's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Thank you!!! It's so great you have all your sciences done! Is Ethics the only one you have to take before applying to the Drexel program? Have you ever taken an Ethics course before? If so, then...

  17. Entry Level MSN

    jocy_anne replied to BRUINS1990's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I applied to an accelerated BSN-MSN program for the fall and just went to their open house on Saturday. From the things they said at the open house, it sounds like you pick your specialization during...

  18. Is taking anatomy over the summer a very bad idea?

    jocy_anne replied to xsophiex's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took A&P I last summer during a 5-week session at my CC. It was a lot of work and I was completely exhausted by the end of the course, but I enjoyed the class, worked hard, and got an A. If...

  19. Impatiently awaiting (HOPEFULLY) acceptance letter

    jocy_anne replied to trb76's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What's so funny is that the same day I posted my first comment here (March 23rd), I finally received an e-mail from Jefferson saying they want me to come in for an interview! I have it scheduled for...

  20. General Ethics Course online, or in class in NJ?

    jocy_anne replied to Kelsea1214's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

  22. General Ethics Course online, or in class in NJ?

    jocy_anne replied to Kelsea1214's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    Hi there! I live in Cherry Hill, which is pretty far from you in Cape May, but Camden County College is offering an Intro to Ethics AND a Biomedical Ethics course online this summer. You should see...

  23. How to explain retaking prereqs you got A's in?

    jocy_anne replied to Curlygirl9195's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think the best thing you could do is just be honest in your admissions essay. I was always interested in the medical field, but my lack of self-confidence prevented me from pursuing Nursing the...

    jocy_anne replied to PITTgal's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing
