  1. How Could She Have Died?

    watashi replied to Tina Hayes's topic in Ob/Gyn

    Thank you for raising awareness of this issue. Like other commenters, I was taught in nursing school that preeclampsia was a pregnancy issue that resolved with childbirth. I had never heard of it...

  2. How to show awards and volunteer work on new-grad resume

    watashi posted a topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    I am a new ASN graduate, with no health related job history. I have two questions about my resume: 1. I received the "Academic Award" at pinning. A pretty non-informative title to list with no...

  3. NCLEX results on hold

    watashi replied to meggomac1012's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    The same thing happened to me. Tested june 11, 75 questions, 2 hours, no breaks, and the palm thing needed a manual override at the end. The results on my state BON checklist changed from pending to...

  4. nclex!!! test results on hold!

    watashi replied to ShawnGriffin's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    So ShawnGriffin, how long did it take for them to release the hold? I just took it on June 11 at 2 and am still on hold. 75 questions, almost 2 hours, no breaks, and they could not get a palm scan...

  5. What Pre-Requisites should I stack?

    watashi replied to Takari's topic in LPN to RN

    The school I did my pre-reqs at had the same rules, and yet my lab partner for Micro was also taking A&P1 and Chemistry (I think 1 but it might have been 2) at the same time, so apparently...

  6. ASN vs BSN

    watashi posted a topic in Georgia Nursing

    This may have been discussed to death elsewhere, but I couldn't find anything recent, and it seems like things are changing this year. I applied to GPC's nursing program for Fall 2012, and am eagerly...

  7. ASN vs BSN

    watashi replied to watashi's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I went with Perimeter's ASN program. Mainly for convenience. This is my daughter's last year at home and I want to enjoy it. The GSU ACE program looked like it would be just too intense for me this...

  8. GPC FALL 2012

    watashi replied to metoyou's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I just looked at the calendar in icollege (First Two Months Calendar under the course calendar icon of the home page) and saw that Mondays were entirely empty. Is there another calendar I should be...

  9. Question about Pre-Res Classes?

    watashi replied to JayCimone's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The A&P you took in high school probably counts as A&P1. There is still A&P2 and Microbiology that most of the schools around here require. Most want Intro psychology, so if you have a...

  10. GPC FALL 2012

    watashi replied to metoyou's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Will we be using those giant textbooks in class or are they mainly for reading and assignments at home? I'm trying to decide if I need to buy a wheely bag to carry

  13. Forced to stay and work under mandatory evacuation?

    watashi replied to squatmunkie_RN's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    On a very practical note, what kind of childcare arrangements do people have that you can stay at work indefinitely on almost no notice? When my children were young, all the daycares I could find...

  14. CLEP & GPA

    watashi replied to misscriss90's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have CLEPed out of two classes already, and plan to take two more. The official school transcript counts them as transfer credits, so I get the hours but they have no effect on my official school...

  15. I need reassurance, or reality check?

    watashi replied to studentinchicago's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Don't count on this. I have a bachelors and a masters degree, both with decent gpas, both from highly ranked national universities. When I applied to my local community college for a career change...

  17. GPC FALL 2012

    watashi replied to metoyou's topic in Georgia Nursing

    thanks. I had heard that about books from someone else last year. They will not just release to you a cash book allowance - it seemed to go from the gpc bookstore straight through to her financial...

    watashi replied to metoyou's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Thanks for the size information. It sounds like small is the right one for me to

  20. GPC FALL 2012

    watashi replied to metoyou's topic in Georgia Nursing

    How did the sizes on the uniforms go? I usually wear 8, sometimes 6. I think of myself as medium, and if things are sized s-m-l that's what I usually take, but the size chart says I am on the border...

  22. Pre-Nursing school immunization catastrophe!

    watashi replied to DisneyNurseGal's topic in General Students

    I had my physical done at the Student Health center of the school I will be attending. I did my pre-reqs there as well, so I was a currently registered student, but they said they would have done it...

  23. GPC FALL 2012

    watashi replied to metoyou's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I was in the same situation. I signed the waiver, but they also wrote on the form that they had given me the first shot, so whoevr reads the form knows I am on track to being immunized. Hopefully...

  24. This is the "new" policy..denied admission based on low compass math score

    watashi replied to suzilks1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Suzilks1, How frustrating for you, to get caught up in this rule change - and it does look like a complete change in philosophy about learning support they are putting into effect this fall. Do you...

  25. GPC FALL 2012

    watashi replied to metoyou's topic in Georgia Nursing

    CPR done! Medical almost done (still waiting on proof of the tetorifice shot I had 2 years ago). Now I just need to order the uniforms and I'll be
