    Am I Stupid For This, Or Does It Matter?

    zoe92 replied to __patiently_waiting's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Nope, I would study just enough to get through the final & focus the rest of your time on other classes. I have had professors tell me not to show up because no matter what I will have an A. It...

    Medical Assistant? Before RN?

    zoe92 replied to Somekid5000's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have had many MAs in my pre reqs. They don't have any bridge options & most wish they have just gone the RN route from the start. I would look into becoming a CNA or

    Are there really no jobs?

    zoe92 replied to stephanie30's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There are jobs, just some locations are more saturated than others therefore not having any openings. I think within the next few years the job market will improve. You will have more baby boomers...

    Volunteering - does it matter where?

    zoe92 replied to jennyy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Is it too risky to withdraw my approved UTA nursing application?

    zoe92 replied to mimi74's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would withdraw & push it back one semester. Spend the fall completing all those courses (take a couple in the summer too). It does not push you back far

    zoe92 replied to lykchen's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree, look at another school. I transferred out of a 4 year school into a community college just to do pre reqs. My first university did not have enough sections so I couldn't get into the classes...

    I agree with some of the other posters, I would not do the LPN with a prior bachelors. Most traditional BSN programs are only 4 semesters once you complete pre reqs. If I were in your situation, I...

    Rent vs Buy

    zoe92 replied to lcraig0011's topic in General Students

    I would buy the more foundational nursing books like assessment, but rent the rest of the books. You can also go back later & buy the rented ones if you found them really

    zoe92 replied to arianna.lee23's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
