    queserasera replied to cmg9311's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Meowbark- Hi fellow non-trad! I'm 25 and was hoping I wasn't the only over 20 year old! Did you get your TEAS score right away or are they making you wait? I had to wait 48 hours and it felt like a...

  4. Marijuana and Nursing School

    queserasera replied to heather19's topic in General Students

    Regardless of my opinions for/against marijuana, in the situation of nursing student, unless you have a prescription, stop. Though IMO I think it's safer than most prescription drugs and alcohol, fact...

    queserasera replied to carefulcare's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I worked for quite a few years in the corporate world. I remember getting my first higher power job and thinking, "Everyone is so mean to me!" Of course, I had to quickly get over it. Lybi Ma of...

  7. Chemistry is going to kill me.. >.>

    queserasera replied to kingvonnBSN2017's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Youtube, Khan Academy specifically, should help you. Chem is a tough subject anyways and having a professor that lacks the ability to sufficently explain things is tough. Rise above though, read the...

    queserasera replied to KdcdRN2b's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    queserasera replied to tmccormi25's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    queserasera replied to Nursing_Student'15's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Adding to my first post too, I plan to forgo children for a farm of rescue dogs and a California king bed that we can all snuggle in together. I suppose my nursing salary will support that

  12. How much time do you put into homework and studying?

    queserasera replied to megkat's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am really lucky in that if I'm explained something once, I pretty much have it. This really aided me in classes like A&P. However, on the other end of the spectrum I have some kind of number...

  15. Is it wise?!

    queserasera replied to ari426's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I enjoyed taking it as a 6 week summer class. I found it easy to learn huge chunks of material like that. I feel like since I was focusing only on one class I retained more than my 15 week A&P I...

    queserasera replied to mmcc26's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  19. Do you think it's a good or bad idea to take General Chemistry and Microbiology toget

    queserasera replied to alexia262013's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took Micro with A&P I and did well in both. Chemistry is my worst subject, mainly because it's been so long since I'd taken a course in it. I had no foundation and therefore had to work a lot...

  23. AS OR BSN If they both offer RN exams in the end.

    queserasera replied to Mishy5's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The difference academically is that the BSN gears you more towards advancement in nursing (such as management, research, eventually getting you masters.) Where as the ADN is strictly for those who...
