  1. LVN-RN Route?

    Idiosyncratic replied to Idiosyncratic's topic in LPN to RN

    Thanks for your thoughts! I'm probably going to do a trade school as well. I'm just not sure, and wait lists/massive competition for the RN programs do not sound

  2. What is your degree in other than nursing?

    Idiosyncratic replied to nija315's topic in General Students

    Wrong

  3. Are nursing schools saturated, less applying?

    Idiosyncratic replied to I'm_no_Genius_but's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I actually find this interesting. My near by school has been different as well. Normally, out of a point system of 19, 18-19 is accepted with a FEW 17's being admitted due to declines. However, this...

  4. Are Career Schools Worth It?

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

    It's not that my grades are bad, by any means. I just have B's instead of A's. I have a few A's, just not enough of them. Thanks for the thought,

  5. Are Career Schools Worth It?

    Idiosyncratic posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    In my local area, it's pretty competitive to get into the nursing program. Most of the programs start in the Fall(with the exception of one), and most of them are REALLY difficult to get into....

  6. Are Career Schools Worth It?

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

    It's on the state board of nursing website's list of approved schools. However, they have issues with the general education classes being approved, so its a

  7. Are Career Schools Worth It?

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

    Well, they are accredited with the state board of nursing, as well as another agency(can't remember what it's called). I just have on last pre requisite to technically complete(AP 2) and won't be able...

  8. Carrington College Reno?

    Idiosyncratic replied to heartbeep's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Does anyone have any updated information about Carrington? I know this thread is old, but I'm curious about a few things, and no one seems to have the

  9. What's your schedule like for Fall 2014?

    Idiosyncratic replied to kingvonnBSN2017's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    AP 2 English 1 History

  10. Online Prereqs

    Idiosyncratic replied to Satori77's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There are some online classes that have online labs. One of my local community colleges have ap 2 online, but you have to pay 300 for the lab

  11. Online Prereqs

    Idiosyncratic replied to Satori77's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I love doing classes online, and will take them as such as much as I can. I really enjoy it over in person classes. For me, working independently is a lot easier than not. I tend to get better grades...

  12. Attending Multiple Schools Simultaneously?

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

    I did this for a minute. It was because my school would not offer the class I needed, so I took it somewhere else. Another college had different requirements for some of the classes I needed as well....

  13. Biology Question

    Idiosyncratic posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi everyone! I have a quick question for you! I keep trying to figure it out by myself but it's just not working. Basically, I was on hiatus(making sure I actually wanted to be a nurse, I took a...

  14. Biology Question

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

    I've sent an email to the adviser, but my issues is I have a B+ in both AP 1 and Chem. I have a B in Micro. Sadly, you need a 3.5 or higher in order to get the full points for the science section,...

  15. Biology Question

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

  16. Science in the Summer

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

    You're very welcome! I've just seen many people who end up retaking courses because they didn't do the best they could have the first time - taking more than one science at a time. There are those...

  17. Biology Question

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

    Thank you for the advice! I decided that I would keep my AP 1 grade, however I also have a B in chemistry, so I'm going to retake Micro with a different instructor. I'm also retaking a lot of the...

  18. Science in the Summer

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

    If something is telling you that you should slow down, that might be a good idea. I know I had something telling me the same thing last year, and I ended up taking AP 1 and Micro together during the...

  19. Biology Question

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

    That's what I'm thinking. I'm actually thinking of keeping my B+ in AP 1, and just retaking Micro and AP 2. I would be required to get an A in both of those classes, though. I've heard AP 2 is not...

  20. Biology Question

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

    I actually did aright in AP 1, I didn't do well with AP 1 and Micro during the same semester. That was way too much work, and the finals...more or less, I didn't study for because I was so burnt

  21. Biology Question

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

    Yes, we are allowed to repeat things as much as we would like. I guess that's a "good" thing? Out here, all admittance is GPA based. Thank you for the ideas

  22. Do you ever get so overwhelmed?

    Idiosyncratic posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That you think about quitting? My AP instructor is also my Micro instructor. She is the epitome of frustrating. But I'm not going to sit here and blame her. I'm doing OK this semester, hanging on to...

  23. I feel like I'm melting

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

    Ok, so when did you steal my brain? No. Seriously. I feel that way all the time, except I'm still barely hanging onto my A's in Micro and AP1. However, the rest of my grades have been stuck at B's. I...

  24. Do you ever get so overwhelmed?

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

    You make a good point. I've been ignoring her lately. I'll bring my tablet in to watch the powerpoints while she talks, since she only uses them for the exams. But I'm not doing as well as I wish. I...

  25. Do you ever get so overwhelmed?

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

    Unfortunately for us, my instructor flat out said we shouldn't take a break, that we'd be dumb to waste so much time, because it's going to be hard. Instead, we should study and ignore our families so...
