  1. Summer A&P or 1st semester nursing program?

    MrsStudentNurse replied to meg2014's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm in the same situation though no kiddos but a husband. It's hard to say with having little ones as I'm not there yet but perhaps you could take it next summer? or is it to be completed only prior...

  2. Possibly switching my major to nursing..NEED ADVICE PLEASE!

    MrsStudentNurse replied to PRWeav's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Truly they're polar opposites. My mil is an accountant and she has had a successful career making a nice salary. I'd say really look at who you are. Nursing is more of a people person Job as you'll be...

  3. Summer A&P1----- How to prepare

    MrsStudentNurse replied to Irish_Mist's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Learn the bones and most muscles. I did this prior to starting an accelerated anatomy and physiology and that'll help with about a large chunk of the class. Even if you learned 10 a day from now til...

  4. What courses do you plan to take for Fall 2013?

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

  6. To much time wasted on classes that have nothing to do with Nursing!!!

    MrsStudentNurse replied to Mschwab316's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was thinking this exact same thing at the beginning of this semester when I began my pre req math class. Then as time went on and the teacher started marking me and others off for what seemed to be...

  7. PLEASE HELP i cant get into nursing school

    MrsStudentNurse replied to Palexander3512's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Also if you're LPN is a certificate program with no GPA take some elective type courses that'll be easy A's and boost up the GPA I.e. Interpersonal communications, psych 101, soc

  8. PLEASE HELP i cant get into nursing school

    MrsStudentNurse replied to Palexander3512's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It sounds like you need a good dose of hope. Why not go for your LPN like you said? That'll boost your GPA up if you do well. The bridge LPN to RN programs are not as competitive. It'll take a lot of...

  9. Has anyone else applied to U of MN??

    MrsStudentNurse replied to bellaRN81's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congrats on being accepted to Rctc and st. Kates! I applied to Anoka Ramsey CC and am also waiting until end of April! Here's to only one month or less or waiting

  10. what if I don't pass Biochem!!!

    MrsStudentNurse replied to swimrlady's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Watch Dr. Najeeb lectures on YouTube! He is hands down the best teacher I've ever heard. Also, the tutoring center at your school should be able help. That was what got me thorough my year of chem....

  11. Labtop or ipad for nursing school?

    MrsStudentNurse replied to cnoto34's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I hardly ever bring my laptop to school but instead iPad. However I always hand write all my notes as that's what works best for me ( I then generally type them up at home and then make out flashcards...

  12. Got a D in a nonscience class...

    MrsStudentNurse replied to RHill9919's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It totally depends on the application procedure of the school you're planning to apply and the retake policy of your current school. All schools do it differently. Some take overall GPA very...

  13. Do Not Underestimate the Difficulty Level of Nursing School

    MrsStudentNurse replied to tenjuna's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you! Besides the massive amounts of beneficial information in this, you did a great job writing

  14. Include Stay at Home Mom on Application Resume?

    MrsStudentNurse replied to BrooklynJulie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with the above. Having a gap is usually asked about in the interview in which case having a good reason such as yours has always been understandable, at least in my experience. Reasons for...

  15. Did you take general biology or human biology?

    MrsStudentNurse replied to vettechtoRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've taken both. Human Bio was more focused on just the body whereas general bio is focused on general biological concepts and will help in anatomy and physiology. I'd suggest general

  16. Nursing student with ADHD, struggling in clinical!

    MrsStudentNurse replied to milksgalore's topic in General Students

    Quite honestly adderall and such medications are intended for hyper focusing thus maybe it's causing more trouble in time oriented tasks. Dividing up tasks into days helps me tremendously! An example...

    MrsStudentNurse replied to tenjuna's topic in Male Nursing Students

  18. Do we still dissect things in a&p?

    MrsStudentNurse replied to vettechtoRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    We do a lot of surgery on the kitty but in anatomy and physiology 1 it was on the sheep and cow eyes. We have testing on the

  19. Keep trying, or give up :(

    MrsStudentNurse replied to andreaslick50's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I understand totally. Have you considered moving to a different

  20. Summer Classes

    MrsStudentNurse replied to Nurse2b7337's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    In my opinion it's the way to go. I prefer the accelerated courses as it pushes you to stay on top of them. Summer in az is nothing to write home about so I'm not at all upset I will be taking...

  21. A&P 2 struggling!

    MrsStudentNurse replied to Marissad6111991's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You're instructor doesn't provide you with those images on the class website?! I just had this test about a month ago and I basically just looked at pictures of them and referred to my book and kept...

  22. Medical Terminology

    MrsStudentNurse replied to studentbear's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  23. I hate anatomy and physiology

    MrsStudentNurse replied to kg1212's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It's a lot at first. I too did not like it at first. However as my anatomy and physiology professor who is a doctor in neuroscience said said, all the memorizing believe it or not is forming pathways...

  24. struggling student needs advice

    MrsStudentNurse replied to ms2010's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That is not uncommon but does require a lot of work. I'd suggesting retaking Micro and try to apply after that. If that doesn't work retake anatomy 1 and reapply. Continue until you get in. If moving...

  25. I feel like the biggest idiot.

    MrsStudentNurse replied to M-Roc's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It's tough but it's all about how you study. How I obtained an A in AP1 was making flashcards of everything needed to know, set them in groups of 5 (easier for brain to memorize this way), I would go...
