  2. Should I Go For It?

    Agreed, definitely do research. Nursing is getting over saturated with new grads especially in big cities, just beware of that. It may be just as difficult to find a job depending on your area. With...

    I have no idea why there is that HUGE picture of the planner
  13. Staying organized

    I use an "At-A-Glance" Academic calendar (on the website it's number is 70-958). It is wonderful for me because it has an entire week on two pages and each day in broken into 15 min. intervals which...

  15. Nursing students and immaturity

    OP, your feelings should dictate how to handle this. If you are feeling like a target for harassment seek the aid of someone in an authority position. You are in school to learn, not feel bullied or...
  16. UMSON BSN Spring 2014

    To add to the summer class/ cost discussion, when I was talking with the dean, we can take summer classes, they are an added cost however. Like the previous poster said as well, they won't shave off a...

    KNW- First of all, I have a serious planning neuroses and had to see what I was in for. WIth that being said, I was looking at the schedule for fall classes to kind of get an idea of scheduling. I...
  24. printable anatomy coloring sheets?

    The thing that helped me most is I made a friend in my A&P I course and we'd do these "speed rounds" in the lab. We'd take one of the bone models and point to something new every 5 seconds and if...
  25. Geez! That seems rough! I was able to test out of all my basic maths and english courses. My BSN program only accepted 2 CLEP/ ap exams for credit though so I did have to end up taking a technical...
