    Transfer as a pre-nursing student??

    If you are definitely in the Emory nursing program, stay there and just do it. Otherwise transfer elsewhere. You don't want to go to a school that is not accredited or has very low NCLEX pass rates...

    accelerated bsn

    I would recommend to finish your program and then go for your RN-BSN. It is hard to transfer nursing credits, so if you did transfer to another nursing program you would most likely have to start from...

    Do you have a study group?

    I have only used a study group once since I start college. It was for A & P, and towards the middle and end of the semester. I find another student who I studied well with and thats why we decided...

    Will adding CNA to my schedule be a bad idea??

    That actually sounds like a lot... just because you won't have one day where you are not doing anything & you are working 24 hours a week. I personally would not do it with all that on my plate,...

    New & Lost.

    BSN is a great decision! I definitely think you will be able to do it, even after 7 years. I have people who have been out of school for decades taking pre reqs with me & they are managing just...

    Will adding CNA to my schedule be a bad idea??

    I don't think it will be a problem. How many hours do you have to be there Saturday? And will you be working? Because with that class load you need at least 1 hour to study a

    Course Load

    Usually community colleges or technical schools offer CNA courses. These can span from a couple weeks to a whole semester. I don't know if you are at a four year school or a community college, but get...

    Course Load

    I would drop A & P 1. If you can avoid a bad professor, by all means do so. I always use ratemyprofessor & it hasn't failed me once. Just take A & P in the summer. For your other question,...

    Need help deciding

    I would just go for the BSN now if you can. If you go for the ADN now, you may want or need to get the BSN later, depending on where you live or what your hospital requires. Doing the BSN now will...

    General Biology before chemistry?

    Tara1245, I found chemistry most difficult because I just don't like it or find it interesting. I am also not too found of math. I like microbiology though. I also took nutrition which is another pre...

    Too much on my plate?

    I think you will be able to get straight A's, especially because you have one completely free day & 2 days that you are free during the day. I suggest getting good time management skills and...

    Cellular bio background for A&P I ??

    Personally, I think you should be fine. Giving an assessment test the first day is a little intense (my professor just did a review chapter) but at least it's only for extra credit. I had a horrible...
