  1. I haven't started clinicals yet but I know a lot of people worked at 24 hour places, such as gas stations, restaurants, etc. they aren't ideal but you could get night shift which gives you more...

    AP1, any tips?

    Hey! That scheduling sounds insane. I really recommend writing out the names to commit them and their spelling to memory. Like the muscles or bones. I also say them out loud when I am study. I...
  3. I think you should be fine. Wait until you start and get a feel for things before deciding to drop down to 1 work

    Prenursing groups/organizations

    I haven't heard of a prenursing organization, at least there's none at my school. But you might be able to start one if you wanted to. I am sure you will find plenty of pre nursing students in your...
  5. There are many RN-BSN programs. I don't know where you live, but most 4 year state universities have some sort of program like this. I've seen traditional RN-BSN, hybrid or even completely
  6. Your school isn't accredited?

    Part time vs. full time program

    For part time I don't think you will forget the information. You will be in school for longer, but still continuously. How long is the full time vs. part

    What is the better path?

    I say just apply to a bunch of schools for the BSN. That's what I'm

    Questions To Ask When Registering

    You can also make sure they are accredited, their NCLEX pass rate, and how many people actually graduate from the program (compared to the number that first start in that

    Which Chemistry class......

    I consider a "good" teacher to be someone who can convey the material well, is open to questions, offers their own office hours, and is able to keep control of the class (does not allow unnecessary...

    Spring semester

    I don't think it would be too bad. But, is there any way you can take one of those classes during the winter mini-mester or in the

    College Algebra ughh

    I hate math. But I got an A in college algebra & a B in statistics... I was stunned. Basically, I went to my school's tutoring center A LOT. I also did homework, even if it wasn't graded. I also...

    No social life...can anyone else relate?

    I hear you! I'm in a long distance relationship too (S/O is in the Air Force) so school takes most of my time. I do like that it keeps me busy, but it is so hard to meet up with my other friends who...
  14. If you feel strongly about getting a job during school before you graduation, I say go for it. Can you work as a CNA or patient tech after 1 semester? I would recommend starting the program in January...

    Help

    I would look at other schools. I failed A & P once because I took it over the summer with a rough professor while also taking chemistry. I am retaking it now & have an A. I won't even look at...
  16. I'm sorry you are clashing with a teacher. For when you ask questions during lecture... have you tried to go to her office hours? Or ask before/after class? From what it sounds like, you ask questions...
  17. If you don't have to work, I would say don't. Like you said, put your time/energy into your kids & school
  18. Like everyone has said, talk to your local school. I would just go for the ADN or BSN if it's possible. If you started at 16 or 17 you could still graduate between ages
  19. I've recently applied to multiple schools (waiting to hear back) and sent each one 2 recommendations, a resume, and an essay regardless of what they required. I figured it couldn't hurt to do
  20. No problem! I was in no way defending her behavior, because she was being very snarky. I have many "older" students I know and I know it is very hard to get back into school mode. I often tell them...
  21. Purdue is awesome! I love their citation website. As for the essay, you could write about why you want to be a nurse & maybe talk about some famous
  22. ^Yup I try not to tell anyone my grades. The girl next to me in A & P has scored much lower than me on our first 3 tests. Because I let my grade slip the first time (thinking everyone got at least...

    Pre-requisites

    At my school, you have to either take Bio or Chem 101 as pre reqs to A&P 1,2 or microbiology. Personally, I would recommend taking chemistry & nutrition together because they are not that bad...
  24. She is not worth one lick of your time or energy. She is obviously ignorant. I am one of the younger ones in my classes & get the same sorts of responses but in a "she's 20 and therefore is not...
  25. A.S. and A.A.S just depends on the school and what they decided to call it. Go to the BON website for your state and they will have a list of approved schools. It is always a risk going to a school...
