    misscriss90 replied to taraer1206's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    22 going on 23 and in my first semester of pre-reqs. Definitely not too old to pursue Nursing or any other major. As long as it's what's best for you and your future, go for

  2. Finally got my head on straight!

    misscriss90 replied to patty89's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am also taking only two classes per term. Also studying to CLEP a few so that it will be a bit quicker and lessen my load towards the program. Plus, I'll be able to dedicate my time to A&P when...

  3. Finally got my head on straight!

    misscriss90 replied to patty89's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Same exact boat! Graduated in 08 and messed up my first year of CC. Took a break, had my son in 2011, became a certified pharm tech, and working in the pharmacy now. Felt that it was a good time to go...

  5. What prereq classes are you taking this fall? How many to go?

    misscriss90 replied to daisygarten's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Returning back to school after figuring out that I wanted to become an RN. Going PT until I can get back FA due to messing up my first year there. Have to pay out-of-pocket until then. Luckily I was...

  8. CNA class dropped me - Sad :(

    misscriss90 replied to Pattycakes85's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    How was your schedule looking like (how many credit hours)? I'm sure they could have asked if you could take one/two of your courses in the Spring term. Getting your CNA certification is important as...

    misscriss90 replied to panjia's topic in Florida Nursing

    Thanks, panjia. So what will you be doing in the meantime until then? Taking courses that will fulfill the gen. eds for your BSN later down the

  10. Valencia College ASN, Florida Hospital College BSN, or UCF BSN

    misscriss90 replied to panjia's topic in Florida Nursing

    Is Valencia highly competitive for entrance into their concurrent program? I see that you need a minimum of 2.5 overall GPA but I'm sure all those that were accepted had higher GPAs than

  11. Anybody in the same boat?

    misscriss90 replied to PassionWithAPurpose's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Will be taking CNA courses in the Spring term and will also be taking pre-reqs along with it. Advisor thought it would be best for me to get my CNA license and work in the field to get more points...

  12. Fall Semester 2012

    misscriss90 replied to ginna121's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good luck :) I'm studying to CLEP Sociology and Psychology. Kind of intimidated by the algebra but I know a refresher should help me as I'm not that bad with

  13. Going to nursing school in Kentucky

    misscriss90 replied to NicoleMalone's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It looks like they are stating that you need to have a CNA/SRNA license and take an approved CNA/SRNA course to even take the exam. I know some schools having become a CNA/SRNA is one of their...

  14. Fall Semester 2012

    misscriss90 replied to ginna121's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm taking English I and Medical Terminology this Fall. Going slow as I don't want to burden myself going FT and working at the same time. Plus, I'm going on a cruise for a week in September and don't...

  15. Need some assistance

    misscriss90 replied to eemcheer's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    See about the CNA courses at your CC. The CNA courses here in Peoria, IL at (ICC) are a semester long, roughly 7 credit hours, so you could still fit in your pre-reqs geared toward the RN program....

  16. Fall Semester 2012 Let's Go!!!!

    misscriss90 replied to bamwife06's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I didn't think to look on Craigslist. Rather help a student get rid of textbook and earn a bit of cash than buying from online

  17. What is the point of becoming a nurse?!

    misscriss90 replied to newRN121's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What s/he said. I had become a certified pharmacy tech back in Nov 2011 and it took me a long time to find a job within my field due to the local vocational school saturating the market. I didn't give...

  18. CLEP & GPA

    misscriss90 replied to misscriss90's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's what I was wondering about also. I guess I can contact the Nursing dept of schools I'm looking to transfer to and see how they determine CLEP scores towards their admissions. Thanks!

  19. CLEP & GPA

    misscriss90 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just wanted to know of anyone's experience that have CLEP'd some courses and got accepted into the nursing program. Knowing that you only get a Pass and no grade for it, how did they factor your...

  22. CLEP & GPA

    misscriss90 replied to misscriss90's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My CC doesn't give CLEP letter grades and I've checked into other CC/Universities I may transfer to in FL and they don't give letter grades either. But will definitely call the schools to double...

  23. CLEP & GPA

    misscriss90 replied to misscriss90's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks everyone. I'm looking into CLEP'ing out of Intro to Psychology and Intro to Sociology, possibly Humanities. Want to be able to focus studying more on A & P I-II when it comes time to take...

  25. CLEP & GPA

    misscriss90 replied to misscriss90's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I know. What I'm asking is do the nursing program just look at the GPA of the courses you didn't CLEP out of but still see you as completing pre-reps with
