Take a deep breath and calm down. Does your school offer a tutoring center? Have you asked your professor where you are going wrong? How exactly do you study? You said you look over terms every other...
Before I started college and decided to do nursing, I was not a big fan of science classes. I love history and English. When I started pre reqs, I had to change how I studied in my classes. For...
I think looking at a private program is a great idea. Although it is concerning why you got a F, then a C. I am currently retaking the class and have an A average with a much better teacher. She is...
Scholarships have a specific date you have to apply by. For loans offered by school, you have to file a FAFSA. I don't know about private loans. Basically, look on your school's website for info on...
Either way, the BSN is higher nursing education. It in NO WAY makes someone a better nurse. They just spent the extra time/money receiving the bachelor's degree rather than associate's. I would...
Wow you have a hard semester ahead! If you are studying constantly but still not making the grades you want, maybe its time to change your study habits. Also, does your school have some sort of...
I needed this! I have applied to four schools' BSN programs for the spring. I had a bad first year in school with a different major, but then transferred to a CC to do my science pre reqs and take...
Is it a for profit school? If so, it can be very hard to transfer into a community college from a for profit school. Your school has completely dismissed you from their
I think that is debatable whether or not she cheated because like you said, it has never been made a rule to not discuss what happens during the check off. But is it at least in the syllabus for the...
I am currently applying for a traditional BSN program. After that (if I am not tired of school), I was thinking I would apply for an online graduate program to become a nurse educator. I have always...
There is a book called "How to Survive Nursing School & Maybe Even Love It". It might help with organization and just tips on getting through/how to be prepared. For actual concepts learned in...
Try to call your local hospital to see if they have a nursing shadow program. If they do, you will get to follow a nurse and observe what sort of things she has to do (without actually participating...
I think knowing what classes (pre reqs) at the community college will be able to transfer to a four year school's BSN program would be really helpful. My school (a community college) was able to...
I am! I applied for spring admission at WVU, Marymount University (Virginia), University of Maryland Baltimore, and Delaware State University. I have been finishing pre reqs and applying to BSN...
I second NJnewRN. I live in Maryland, where ADNs are being asked to go back for a BSN. A majority of the good hospitals are listing open positions as "BSN preferred". If you can not afford the BSN...
Well it's good you at least met with him. It shows your initiative. I need an A in my A & P class so it will replace the crummy grade I got before so I understand how badly you want an A....
I would try to catch the teacher before class and apologize. I understand why you did what you did because you just told us your side but the professor probably did not. I would make sure well you...
I recommend NOT listening to others lectures because they might add in different details that your professor will not add in your class. Then you are wasting time studying material you won't even be...
Thank you! And also, if you are getting a lot of scribble, I highly recommend even reorganizing information when you write your outline so that you can understand how concepts come together. Good luck...
