    Becoming discouraged with science prereqs

    zoe92 replied to tcov93's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I actually disagree with this. If you are having a hard time, I do not recommend you taking it online (so you have to then teach yourself). I did not think I could do well with the sciences, so I took...

    can we have an honest discussion about foreign profs?

    zoe92 replied to richardgecko's topic in General Students

    It is much more common now to have a foreign professor. There were multiple ones at the community college I attended. If you don't find them engaging, you have to find a way to engage yourself and...

    ADN program or BSN?

    zoe92 replied to Aabbccdd1234's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This decision really depends on you. But from what you say, the ADN is a better option due to cost and locations. Personally, if I was in your situation, I would first make sure hospitals are hiring...

    Advice from a sad new grad

    zoe92 replied to Lamjammcgee's topic in General Students

    I think it depends where you live. Like the PPs from more Southern states, it seems that the job market is better for ADNs than places like California. I live in the suburbs of D.C. & most of the...

    What helps the most in school?

    zoe92 replied to KarenInCO's topic in General Students

    I decided on my school because they had a new BSN program & great scholarships. Honestly, I don't feel nervous about being the "inaugural" class because their school of nursing has offered a...

    zoe92 replied to JLB1215's topic in General Students

    There are so many variables that play into the situation. I say just wait & celebrate graduating nursing school by trying frequently to conceive

    zoe92 replied to RNinthemaking15's topic in General Students

    I graduate in spring 2015 but will be planning a wedding throughout nursing school. My fiancée is in the Air Force & we plan to be married in September 2015. I am using my breaks (winter and...

    Organizing Class Work, Handouts, and Binders

    zoe92 replied to mcbtny9's topic in General Students

    I am old fashioned & use binders. I get a binder for each class & divide it by tests, with the syllabus in the front. If I run out of room, I move the old material into another binder that I...

    Fresh from Orientation: iPads are required equipment!

    zoe92 replied to daisygarten's topic in General Students

    I have an iPad & love it... but I can't stand reading books electronically. I can use Apps for fun, but when it comes time to study I need the material the old fashioned way. I am glad you are...

    Pre-requisties may take 4 semesters, maybe longer?

    zoe92 replied to jnichox2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I applied to a BSN program. It took 4 semesters but I could of completed them in 3 semesters full time if I had doubled up on sciences. My school requires BIO100 before I can take any other sciences,...

    What made you decide to go for ASN or BSN?

    zoe92 replied to Idiosyncratic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I switched from a BA to nursing after one year in college so getting my ADN or BSN would take the same amount of time since most of my general classes were completed. My parents help financially any...

    Am I stupid for not doing the ABSN?

    zoe92 replied to ruby1989's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Had I not gotten into nursing school for this fall, I would have continued my bachelors in psychology and then applied to an ABSN. It absolutely terrified me, especially after looking at the...

    zoe92 replied to Analissaoval's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Schedule Advice

    zoe92 replied to amberdawn85's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I really want to answer your question and help... But do you mind telling us the course titles ( such as Anatomy, Ethics, etc) because every school has a different way of listing courses so I don't...

    zoe92 replied to MaxwellHolmes's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Random drug tests in nursing school?!

    zoe92 replied to Yolopilas's topic in General Students

    I have to take one in July before school starts. Once we start in the fall, I don't know what will happen. I think random are best. I have heard of people going through extreme measures to not get...

    Advice on When to Have the Baby

    zoe92 replied to kelsey1992's topic in General Students

    I would wait to even try to have a baby until you pass the NCLEX & have your license. This way you can focus your time/energy on finishing school, graduating & studying for the NCLEX. This...

    Too young/ early in life to be in Nursing Program?

    zoe92 replied to futuresctRN's topic in General Students

    I understand & know you weren't being exact. I think one of the factors is that many unsuccessful students do not do their research & realize how intensive the schooling is. They think it is...

    Too young/ early in life to be in Nursing Program?

    zoe92 replied to futuresctRN's topic in General Students

    I think saying one in a hundred is quite an exaggeration; not every 18 year old makes it through nursing school but it is not nearly that low either. Have a little faith in the younger generation. We...
