  1. Nursing in Liberal Arts?

    Jennie.K replied to Difuz's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Also, an arts degree usually requires a language and 1 or 2 science course. A science degree requires all science and no foreign language. That is where I lost credits because I was pursing a BA in...

  2. Nursing in Liberal Arts?

    Jennie.K replied to Difuz's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    My school is a liberal arts school but it is in TX. :) They have an amazing nursing program! The way it is set up, you have to know you want to do nursing when you go in because of all the prereqs. We...

  3. It's only six years... right? :/

    Jennie.K replied to Jennie.K's topic in Post Graduate Students

    From everything I have read online, you will have a better chance of getting a job with the DNP since the NP is a master's degree. There are schools that offer BSN - DNP programs, at least Baylor...

  4. It's only six years... right? :/

    Jennie.K posted a topic in Post Graduate Students

    Hey everyone, I am currently working on my BSN and I plan to start my DNP to become a Nurse Midwife after I get a few years experience in L&D and get my student loans paid down. My question is,...

  5. It's only six years... right? :/

    Jennie.K replied to Jennie.K's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Thank you so much for the reply! I still have three years before I graduate. Hopefully I will be able to get a tech position next summer on a L&D

  6. I just got laid off from a healthcare job and dont know where to turn.

    Jennie.K replied to Divalish918's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Have you looked into becoming an EMT-B? You can knock out the classes for that certification in one semester. I would do that and then maybe just work for a while and re-visit your career

  7. How is A&P 2 different from A&P1?

    Jennie.K replied to EMT89's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It just depends on your school. In my schools, A&P I is the molecular level, cellular respiration, tissues, integumentary system, skeletal system, muscle system, some of the cardiac system, and...

  8. Speech or comp 2

    Jennie.K replied to chas2283's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Do you need them both? If you cannot take them at the same time, I would take comp II first. That course will help you with writing (needed to write speeches). It will also help you learn how to...

  9. Affording school...

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

    Do you need to make 2000-2500 a month? If not, you can work Fri-Sun in a restaurant. I have waited tables on and off for 8 years and it seems to be the best place to make the most amount of money in...

  10. Certified Nurse Midwife - Masters degree or more?

    Jennie.K replied to Dalla's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I am not sure where you are at; but Baylor university offers a 3 year BSN to DNP program for nurse-midwife. That is what I plan to do once I have some experience in

  11. How to make an A in a 5 week A&P1 class over the summer.

    Jennie.K replied to EMT89's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    For the Anatomy part, the ONLY thing that helped me was to print off if images (in color) then put them into document protectors. Then just label everything over and over again. Do one section...

  12. Confused between school and preganacy

    Jennie.K replied to sabita143's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Having a child at a young age myself, I have to reply to this thread. Sorry if it becomes a novel! Also, I did not read all 30+ treads; so I am sorry if I M repeating anything. First, only you can...

  13. Working and Pre-Reqs

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

    I work two days a week and take 12 hours. Also, I have two small kids and my husband is in the military - which makes things a little harder. If you dot have kids and your single, I think you can do...

  14. Make the waiting game easier

    Jennie.K posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hey guys! So, I have one more semester of prereqs before I start nursing school. Now I am going nuts because I just want to start!!! How did you all make the time go faster? I am taking A&P II...

  15. Any other MilSpouses with concerns?

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

    It is nice to meet you! Have you gone through a deployment yet? I didn't think it was as I thought it would be. I just worry about having to work night during a deployment! I have no idea what I would...

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

    Thank you! I cannot wait for it to hurry up

  17. Nursing School Realistically

    Jennie.K replied to Tutz926's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow, I am starting to get a little nervous. I wasn't worried about getting into the program at my school because I have a 4.0 and the dean of the nursing school told me not to worry... Now I think...

  18. Volunteering Vs. CNA certification

    Jennie.K replied to 5ummer's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would also look at hospitals around your area for nurse tech positions. At the hospital I am hoping to work upon graduation, they have nurse tech positions that you can apply for once you hit your...

  19. Associate's degree v. Bachelor's degree starting wages.

    Jennie.K replied to dzadzey's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Wow, talk about pouncing on the OP for a question. I have been wondering what the difference was as well. I do not think there should be a difference in pay. However, I've been wondering why one...

    Jennie.K posted a topic in General Nursing
