  1. Take other units whilst waiting for admission?

    Jennie.K replied to Gilead86's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Not all community colleges have a wait list. You should start by speaking with the colleges in your area. After you find out the criteria for being accepted to the college, ask who you should speak...

  3. Am I making the right decision? Please help!!

    Jennie.K posted a topic in General Students

    I could really use some opinions/advise from people who understand the extremities of NS. Okay, so basically I was going to this school where I am basically guaranteed a spot in the nursing program....

  4. Am I making the right decision? Please help!!

    Jennie.K replied to Jennie.K's topic in General Students

    HA! We are still at our first duty station, been here for two years. I am SO ready for the next place! I do not mind it here, but I actually like the idea of moving around... New places and new...

  5. Am I making the right decision? Please help!!

    Jennie.K replied to Jennie.K's topic in General Students

    LC, I completely agree with what you are saying about continually pushing it back. Luckily, we are done having kids :) I did not grow up around the military, at least not directly, so hearing that mil...

  6. Am I making the right decision? Please help!!

    Jennie.K replied to Jennie.K's topic in General Students

    I wish they offered online courses! They are finally starting to offer a few online psych classes but this school is incredibly "traditional." They aren't very flexible for non traditional

  7. Am I making the right decision? Please help!!

    Jennie.K replied to Jennie.K's topic in General Students

    Thank you, I am still going back and forth but I do think my family might still need me more. Also, this is a not for profit, private school. I received that amount of scholarship partially bc of my...

  9. Am I making the right decision? Please help!!

    Jennie.K replied to Jennie.K's topic in General Students

    Unfortunately, my husband is lower enlisted which means we can buy food and pay for gas. I will need to take loans out for childcare. Also, the separation pay is for when the military separates you....

  10. Am I making the right decision? Please help!!

    Jennie.K replied to Jennie.K's topic in General Students

    Also, I forgot to mention that when I go part time it will be at a comunity college and I will lose all scholarships to the BSN

  11. Should I take CNA Classes in High School?

    Jennie.K replied to canolee's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    If you can afford it, then do it. This is give you a job option if you need to work in college and it will look good/give you experience as an RN

  12. Good study method or too OCD?

    Jennie.K replied to CRNBSN18's topic in General Students

    That sounds like a lot of time spent organizing study material instead of studying. You may get behind if you want to do that for every chapter. Not only that, but you may try to overload on info and...

  13. Paranoia or Valid Concern, I Don't Know...

    Jennie.K replied to Stephalump's topic in General Students

  14. What would you do if you were in my shoes?

    Jennie.K replied to RhodyLPNstudent's topic in General Students

    Do you have a low GPA? I would talk to a nursing advisor at a community college to find out if you meet the requirements for the nursing

    Jennie.K replied to tampabayRNBSN's topic in Advanced Practice

    Is this your first child? I have two kids and cannot imagine starting any program in the same month a gave birth. I also had c-sections and you don't recover as quickly. However, the first month with...

  16. Really Really Confused? How does this all happen?

    Jennie.K replied to JayCimone's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with some of the above posters about going to a 4 year university with a BSN program. You'll have a better chance of getting a job and the experience you need to get into NP school. Nursing...

  17. Can I land CNA job with my experience and education?

    Jennie.K replied to keithm1012's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Taking the CNA course could be a waste of time and $$ bc you can work as a nurse tech (does the same thing as a CNA) after a certain amount of time in the nursing program. For example, I'm getting...

  18. New Grad Needs HELP!

  19. I need another elective, suggestions?

    Jennie.K replied to tiredmomof2's topic in Excelsior College

    I'm hoping to take neurophysiology and genetics as my electives... I think they would be really interesting. If you are wanting something easy, try an online psych class. Good

  20. General psychology

    Jennie.K replied to Kdrenee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You shouldn't have a problem. I took it in a normal semester, in a classroom, and I wish I should have taken it online and a shorter semester. Just make sure you study the brain in the beginning. My...

    Jennie.K replied to Jennie.K's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Jennie.K posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Okay, so, I have a little over a week before I have to take the HESI A2. Long story short, I was getting ready to start a BSN program but some of my funding fell through and I am going to apply for...

    Jennie.K replied to rmc09's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow! I'm from overland park (now in TX) and I did not realize everything was so competitive up there! I'm kind of happy I am down here. Things are competitive but people with 4.0 don't get turned...

  24. I need reassurance, or reality check?

    Jennie.K replied to studentinchicago's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Your GED won't matter. I would try to figure out what your cumulative GPA from all classes you ever took is. The NS will probably do one of two things. 1. Take your overall cumulative GPA from ALL...
