  1. Hello everyone! I'm currently in my first semester of NP school but I'm having second thoughts about doing the pediatric NP instead of FNP. My nursing background is 2 years of working at a children's...
  2. Nursing Admissions: A Frustrated Student's Manifesto

    You sound very bitter and disgruntled about this but to be honest, most of the information you've provided in your "manifesto" is gossip and hearsay. Maybe you should look into other schools if your...
  3. Social Class and Nursing

    I feel like I've gotten the whole "stepford nurse" when co-workers ask me why I work when my parents are well off and supportive and husband has well payed professional but I honestly think it's...
  4. Honestly, you should apply everywhere and worry about reputation after you know you've been accepted. The only sure advantage is a BSN program over an
  5. National University Generic RN class schedule?

    Hi guys, I would say that you'll be able to get away with working for the first few classes because you'll only be in school 2-4 days(TTh or MTThF or MTWF). However, after you start fundamentals and...
  6. Yet another burned-out nurse question...

    Is saying YOLO appropriate for this? Lol Honestly I think you should do what you need for yourself. You will only hurt yourself and maybe even your patients if you cannot give nursing your 100%. There...
  7. National University Nursing Program

    Glad to help :) I hope you figure out which route is good for you. I'll probably check back in here after a while too just to share any updates or
  8. National University Nursing Program

    There isn't a lot of math in the pre-reqs for NU, just that med statistics class but its about more data analysis/interpretation with basic math than hard advanced math (At least that's how my...
  9. National University Nursing Program

    I was generic entry because this will be my first bachelors degree. The only difference between accelerated and generic is that generic also requires you to do GE classes for the bachelors while for...
  10. National University Nursing Program

    No problem :) actually a lot of the students have no previous healthcare experience, including myself. I think it's worth it because you'll be able to pay it back within a couple years because you'll...
  11. National University Nursing Program

    Hey, I'm in the RN program at national (cohort 9 - fresno). Wanted to say that yes it's a BSN and while its good to start studying for the teas early, I would suggest waiting until you've actually...
  12. Which would be better? ADN or BSN?

    Definitely go for BSN, your young and have the time for it. Plus most hospitals are now leaning towards hiring BSNs
  13. Score of 90 on TEAS V

    Maybe you should post this thread in the Teas Exam Help area, you'll probably get more replies
  14. National University Workload

    There are evening classes for pre-reqs and most likely you'll only be taking one class at a time so I don't think there will be an issue with working and school. However, that's my opinion on just the...
  15. National University-Fresno, CA

    I got in
  16. It depends, when is your application period deadline? You'll receive an email a couple weeks after that date. If the deadline was the 10th, then you should contact your nursing counselor because we...
  17. National University-Fresno, CA

    Hey! I took it yesterday...Where you there too then? How'd you do? I've got an 80 on the teas, but I'm worried about that proctored
  18. Perhaps an accelerated BSN program? from what i know (according to the program in my area) the only pre-reqs you'd have to do is A&P, Micro and maybe Stats. Other then that, they'll transfer your...
  19. West coast University

    You can find better schools for less. $133,000 for a BSN? That's
  20. Hello! Does anyone remember any diseases/illnesses mentioned on the Teas V exam? I took the teas back in March for the first time and got an overall score of 80. I'll be taking it again in August in...
  21. For my pre-reqs I had some financial aid and the rest I paid myself. I didn't want to take out a bunch of small loans so if I get into the program (doing the essay and teas next week!) I want to take...
  22. I think you should first consider visiting the UK before actually moving there, living there will be very different than the united states (diff. taxes, housing costs, bills, etc). Not only is the UK...
  23. I've been reading the same but one of my friends graduated last spring and another about a year earlier and they've both found jobs in Fresno. They said its hard and you'll have to send out a lot of...
  24. I'm not in the program yet but from what I was told at the nursing forum...they suggest you not work because they want you to study 2 hrs outside of class for every hour in class. Plus, you have no...
  25. I know that the classes are equivalent to a Csu, so I'm guessing that you'd be able to turn in your national transcripts for other city and state schools. But you should definitely ask an advisor to...
