  1. students applying in atlanta Ga or near by area help ME!!!!!

    astronomia replied to Asrakhan86's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I live in the Atlanta area and, while I have not applied to nursing school quite yet, I can safely tell you all schools are different. I currently attend Georgia State University, where it's all about...

  2. A&P 1

    astronomia replied to Kdrenee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The material isn't hard--it's the volume of material being thrown at you that is challenging. Each school is different, but lecture was physiology and lab was anatomy for me. I aced physiology with...

  3. All BSN programs in Georgia

    astronomia replied to SunshineSara's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I go to Georgia State University. We require pathophysiology, but not until you've been accepted to the nursing program. For the traditional track, you take bio/chem/or physics + labs, microbiology +...

  4. What was your HS GPA & SAT score before getting accepted into nursing school?

    astronomia replied to prenursingprincess's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There are no programs like the one you are describing in my state, but I know what you are talking about! I know a girl who took a route like that in Massachusetts and she had a 1770 on her SAT and a...

  5. Can I get into nursing school with a so-so GPA?

    astronomia replied to tiffany91's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It varies between schools and programs. In my area, associate degree nursing programs would accept your GPA, especially with volunteer hours under your belt, but at my current school, the B.S....

  6. What credits are needed for a BSN?

    astronomia replied to Principessa22's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Generally, A&P I and II, microbiology with a public health component + lab, English I and II, college algebra, statistics, human health span and development, abnormal psychology, and either Bio I...

  7. Has anyone formed a study group for your class?

    astronomia replied to LoneCowboy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I used quizlet.com. You can make flash cards and play study games based off of those cards that really help solidify the information, and even use others' cards that they haven't protected. There's a...

  8. Teacher repeats his test.

    astronomia replied to msmartel bee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have had many professors who did this, including a microbiology professor. Don't let it affect your integrity and just keep studying the material to build it long-term. You will be the one who has...

  9. Has anyone formed a study group for your class?

    astronomia replied to LoneCowboy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My school is primarily a commuter school with students from all over, so a classmate and I made a closed Facebook group to help each other out. We posted about it on the grade management system our...

  10. Micro and A&P 2

    astronomia replied to Graduation2016's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Quizlet has a free app that you can use to make flash cards. It's very helpful for Anatomy. Other than that, I haven't really found

  11. Spring'13 Schedule

    astronomia replied to professionalgirl80's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took A&P with neurobiology, nutrition, microbiology lab, A&P lab, and a bio lab. It is very doable, you just have to manage your time properly. A&P requires tons of hours of study

  12. Anybody gotten an ASN at GPC and gone into the ACE program at GSU?

    astronomia replied to igotaxed's topic in Georgia Nursing

    GSU's ACE ace program actually accepts a lower GPA than the traditional! Good

  13. Emory BSN program (out of state student)

    astronomia replied to hayred0222's topic in Georgia Nursing

    According to their website, 83% of their students accepted this year were from out of state. Admission Statistics | Emory College | Atlanta,

  14. Anybody gotten an ASN at GPC and gone into the ACE program at GSU?

    astronomia replied to igotaxed's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Most of them, yes. I just have A&P II left for my traditional program pre-reqs and abnormal psych and communications/cultural development for the ACE program. I'm just too nervous to apply to...

  15. A Fork in The Road!!!!!!

    astronomia replied to katiebeth's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Why not get your associate's, work whatever job you can get with it, and work on an online RN-BSN bridge to get your BSN? It's only a few more classes. It depends on your area, really, but I live in...

  16. Nervous about college!

    astronomia replied to futurenurse1248's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You're only 50 points away! Why not retake it? Most students' scores improve when they retake it. Mine increased by 250 points the second time

  17. Graphic designer going back to school to get an nursing degree

    astronomia replied to mrsjulie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Because you already have a B.S. in graphic design, an accelerated program is an option, because, in an accelerated BSN program, there is only time for your nursing courses. All core classes and...

  18. TEAS Test Scores

    astronomia replied to tofuu's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    Like the other two posters said, every school is different. Try asking one of your nursing advisors what the average GPA/TEAS score is for accepted students in the program. If you're concerned about...

  19. Micro and A&P 2

    astronomia replied to Graduation2016's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I used the 3rd Edition of the Anatomy Coloring book by Wynn Kapit and Lawrnence M. Elson. It was only $11 on amazon with free shipping and it helped me visualize the muscle groups, but it didn't do...

  20. Nervous about college!

    astronomia replied to futurenurse1248's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just get as close to a 4.0 in your first year of college and your GPA should boost with no trouble. I'm a little confused though, since you said your school requires a 3.0 to get in, but you have a...

  21. Downplaying Enthusiam

    astronomia replied to smoup's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm the same way. My GPA is only a 3.8, which is considered "hardly competitive" at my school, so I'm too ashamed to even apply. I'm trying to finish out all my core classes and pre-reqs before...

  22. What is a microbiology lab practical like?

    astronomia replied to bethannie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had a written and performance-based practical. The performance-based required us to make a successful gram stain and pure culture following proper procedure (aseptic technique, etc.) and have...

  23. Anybody gotten an ASN at GPC and gone into the ACE program at GSU?

    astronomia replied to igotaxed's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Any classes on that list that you have taken at Perimeter should transfer over (Perimeter has a guarantee that their classes will transfer to any GA school), EXCEPT the ones that specifically say that...

  24. Anybody gotten an ASN at GPC and gone into the ACE program at GSU?

    astronomia replied to igotaxed's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I haven't earned an ASN at GPC, but I can tell you what classes are required for the ACE program at GSU, as I am a student at GSU who will be applying to the ACE program soon. Pre-requisites can be...

  25. Need to register asap...Please help

    astronomia replied to Tink Nurse to Be's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Every college is different, so I also recommend seeing an advisor, but it seems that many programs require statistics, general psychology, abnormal psychology, health and human development, nutrition,...
