    What do I do? CC -> University

    I really think you should call the schools nursing program and try to talk to an adviser. These are all very specific questions. It will be hard for all of us to guide you properly since we are...

    Dropping out of Nursing School.

    I am so sorry, Steph, I have enjoyed your posts for the last year I have been a member on AN. I recommend talking to your professors and letting them in in what is going on. They can help you figure...
  3. I took 14+ credits my first 2.5 years of college (1.5 of those years being my "pre req" years). My last semester of pre reqs, which was this past spring, I only had to finish A & P 2 & a...
  4. I got mostly B's in my science pre reqs. My biggest piece of advice is to apply to as many schools as you can. Which part of CO are you in? Are you willing to go out of state? Also consider private...

    2nd time applying for nursing program

    So sorry to hear about your cousin. I think it is great that you decided to minor in nutrition. You could always double minor and take on something like Spanish or psychology. I took enough Psych...

    What do I do? CC -> University

    Not sure how an intro bio is not an "actual biology class" considering the BSN programs I applied to accepted mine. But by intro bio, I meant the BIOL class you recommended to the OP. it was just...

    What do I do? CC -> University

    No, not true. My school did not require you to do it in that order. All they required was an intro bio first before you took your higher pre reqs. I did: intro bio, micro, chem, A & P 1, A & P...

    What do I do? CC -> University

    I agree with bravera. I started off my first semester in pre nursing taking intro biology, college algebra, developmental psychology, writing & ethics. I highly recommend taking classes full time....

    What do I do? CC -> University

    I did community college to university and got a couple of associates degrees. It was the best decision I could have made. I saved a lot of money on pre reqs, got good grades & was able to mature...

    A & P flashcards

    I always preferred making my own. My A & P teacher would provide a study guide for the lecture portion. It was all of the power point notes put into question form, so I would write the question on...

    I feel like a loner sometimes.

    I am not necessarily an introvert but I love being alone! I need some alone time every day. I am almost 21 as well and in a tradtional BSN program so most students are around my age. I requested a...

    readings & notes

    Hi everyone, I start my BSN this fall. For my fundamentals class, they assigned 9 chapters to read from our textbook (Kozier & Erb's). I am trying to space out these 9 chapters because I am...

    Getting Married in School?

    I got engaged this past winter, right before my last semester of pre reqs. Now I am starting my year and a half of nursing school. Personally, I decided to wait to get married until after I graduate....

    Multiple schools for Prereqs

    I took most of my science courses at one community college & then one chemistry course at another community college. I would call your school & see what they

    Changed my Major

    I live in the DMV area & switched to nursing after my freshman year of college back in 2011. I am having to take a 5th year of college for my BSN because there was no way I could make the cut in...

    Just wondering something.. Application

    I applied to 4 BSN programs. They all had different requirements but I sent in the same things for everything. I had 5 letters of recommendation (1 personal, 1 professional, 3 academic), a resume that...

    General chemistry

    If your textbook has a practice workout or solutions manual, purchase it. It will provide extra problems for you to practice, as well as answers for the end of chapter

  24. Chemistry, because I hate that subject. I find biology SO much more
  25. I did my pre reqs at a community college. I was eligible to get an associate's in science for pre nursing, BUT you don't necessarily have to do that. You can find out what the university requires,...
