  1. I met someone in my chemistry class who, go figure, is going towards nursing! I feel like a weirdo though because I talk about the pre reqs for the schools in our area, and the tests, how things are...
  2. Do you have friends going towards nursing too?

    I definitely agree with you. I gravitate towards those who want to work hard, and get grades they deserve. I have a small study group, and a couple really close people I talk to. We study together,...
  3. How long are your prerequisites?

    Really depends. Our BSN program is about 2 years. ASN is about 1(or
  4. I do still have access to it. Unfortunately, I had passed with a total of 88, and didn't get in. I'm not at a computer right now but pm me. Btw it's a study guide. :) has extra things the technical...

    Welcome!! I started official pre reqs(the sciences) this summer. :) I have all the others satisfied. Enjoy the
  9. CPR certification

    Medical Professional! There's a certain one, intended for BLS Health Professionals.
  10. What made you choose nursing?

    My story might be a little lengthy. Anyways, ever since I was 16 and first started college I always had interest in nursing. However, family always told me I couldn't do it, so I believed them and...
  11. Class questions

    Here are my views. Chemistry is hard, even with a really good instructor. I'm taking an 8 week course, and it DOES consume my life lately. So I would think, that shoving it with another class who has...
  12. I feel like giving up.

    My class is 8 weeks long. We are 3 weeks into it, and I'm just so disappointed. I spent SO much time, effort, and study groups on this class! Got A's on EVERYTHING else - but the test. :/ It's so...
  13. I worked so hard studying, spent more time than I've ever spent studying, taught other people, took pretests, etc. However, I got an 80%. All the other people that I was teaching got above me, at...
  14. Did my first General Chemistry Exam

    Thanks everyone! I know I'm doing OK. I have an A in lab, high A, and an A on the web assignments(homework). So I'm hoping that maybe if I study more alone and sooner - ill end up
  15. I feel like giving up.

    So I'm not the only one shoving chem in the summer semesters. Ugh! I took my first exam today and did poorly(for my standards), and am just generally frustrated. I, like you, studied like crazy but...

    I say push through. Make yourself able to keep that awesome GPA.
  17. Just took my first A&P test

    Congrats! Studying usually does pay
  18. So I'm analyzing my other grades(not sciences), and I'm trying to figure out what NEEDS to be retaken. My school grades by two different GPA areas. One of them is your sciences with your chemistry...
  19. Opinions about Pre/Co Req grades?

  20. Opinions about Pre/Co Req grades?

    There is no penalty for repeats. However, you're allowed to repeat four classes in your entire college experience, and can only repeat sciences 2 times. I was just thinking of repeating Political...
  21. Giving yourself a leg up in the application process

    Thanks for the advice! The woman in charge of our nursing program isn't entirely the nicest, and would probably hurt someone who added more than what she requests..lol. I might try though, as long as...
  22. Lately I've been contemplating what would make the most sense. I have all but 3 of my ASN pre reqs satisfied, and I'm not sure how many BSN. But I was set on getting my ASN then doing the bridge...
  23. What made you decide to go for ASN or BSN?

    Thanks everyone! Your input really helped. I analyzed the classes needed for both of them; I'll be ready to apply for next year's ASN degree programs(2 different schools) by Spring of next year. I'll...
  24. Honestly, it's something that you really need to think about. As a married couple, he does have input into what happens with the entire family. I know you want to go for this, but with the...
