    My classes start August 28. The first 7 weeks we do labs only. The next 7 weeks is clinical, so October is when we start actually going out to different

    Backpack for nursing school?

    There are so many with a hatred for rolling backpacks! They don't bother me unless the owner rolls over my foot with it. Then I get

    Computer Class : Windows 7?

    The only thing I can think of is something along the lines of nursing informatics (as Fireman767 said). My school offers one but you must already be in the nursing program. So I don't know what your...
  4. If you can do a BSN right away & want to eventually get your masters, I say go for the BSN
  5. I say wait two years. Do not conceive a baby, do not take any classes & pay off as MUCH of your debt as you can. After two years, make a decision. Nursing is a great career field but does require...

    Have you guys taken Ethics?

    I liked ethics &I found it easy. My teacher had us read different essays & either defend or argue with its viewpoint. It was abstract but my teacher respected every student's
  7. I think that is a good schedule. For most of my four semesters in pre reqs, I took 14-16 credits & worked 20 hours a week. I would balance 2 hard classes & 2 easier classes just as you are...

    Computer Class : Windows 7?

    I had to take a computer class & chose a basic computer science class that taught me all about Microsoft Office. I am pretty good with computers so the class just taught me some shortcuts &...

    Hi I am new...

    Go to every class. Read before class & review notes after every class. If your school offers a study lab, use it. Form a study group if it helps you. Study a little bit every day. Take...

    caught up in a dilemma

    Based on what you said, being admitted into a nursing program may be very hard for you. I have heard of people retaking one science pre req but not more than once and definitely not in multiple...

    Need advice on nursing route

    ADN! The factors in your case make it a better choice. It would also help you
  12. My school accepted me even though I had one pre req left to take. They just told me to get a B or above (which I did) and I would be good to go. It doesn't hurt to

    How long does a nursing degree take?

    I am 20 and just graduated from community college. I got my associates in pre nursing by finishing all my required prerequisite classes. Now I am starting at a 4 year university this fall to complete...
  14. It usually depends on the school since every program has a different admissions requirements. I would call the different schools you are interested in & ask. Most schools are very upfront about...
  15. I got a B in my 7 week chemistry course! I was already accepted to my BSN program for fall 2013 but had to make a B or better in chemistry this summer to start nursing classes at the end of August....

    Anyone have to take A&P more than once?

    I retook A & P 1 once. It was the only pre req I retook & I kicked butt in the rest of my pre reqs. Although my GPA only calculated my grade from the second time, I still hate having that...
  17. I am glad you found another school to go to. I constantly see people attending or applying to super pricey schools & validating the tuition (more to themselves than anyone else) that it is too...

    I happen to be in the same nursing program as ☮ ♥ and ✚ & will be one of the ones turning 21 during my first semester of nursing school. I will graduate with my BSN at 22! It seems so far...

    Online Programs and State Licensing

    Are you trying to do a program online? Because those don't exist. You have to first either get your LPN or RN & usually on campus. The closest I have heard of one of these programs being "online"...
  20. There are a lot of things that would help you get direct patient care. This includes EMT, phlebotomist, CNA, patient care tech, or medical assistant. Personally, I would get a bachelors in something...

    Grade in Anatomy and Physiology

    I live in the DMV area! But am attending nursing school in Baltimore. What school are you looking
  22. I disliked the nervous & cardiovascular systems. They were very tedious but not in an interesting
  23. I agree, most school nurse job listings I have seen require a BSN. You could always get your BSN & then get your masters in public health

    Pre-Nursing Students in GA?

    I am in Maryland but I got an AS in pre nursing. I got accepted into nursing school, but it was because I got good grades on my pre reqs. The AS had the benefits of something to put on my resume &...
  25. I have a 3.1 science GPA & 3.5 overall GPA. I got an 81% on my TEAs. My school requires a 3.0 in both science & overall, and are monitoring TEAs scores to see if there is a correlation in how...
