  1. Am i a nerd

    InfirmiereJolie replied to cnastriving2brn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just bought my Chem 1 and Micro books from Amazon today :) I'm going to get started on it early this time like I did last spring. Last spring I read the entire Anatomy book and it REALLY helped. I...

  2. Fallout of Obamacare Question: Best Advanced Nursing Degree To Pursue?

    InfirmiereJolie replied to asiangal's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Why do you call it "Obamacare"? Why not call it the Affordable Care Act? :***: From what I've learned, it's only going to be BENEFICIAL! Those involved with primary care are going to get a 10% pay...

  3. I feel sick....

    InfirmiereJolie replied to dsb_fam's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You might want to check out this link on the Kaplan entrance exam (some good tips) https://allnurses.com/kaplan-university-online/kaplan-nursing-entrance-495349.html JUST studying the A & P book...

  4. $8.25 an hour...*** is this normal?

    InfirmiereJolie replied to pnkgirl25's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Surprising. People where I live can get $10-15 an hour without even needing a certification (as just a caregiver) I'd say put up fliers, check out retirement communities, and other places for work. I...

  5. Student Loans to finance my CC tuition, basic living expenses all the way through BSN

    InfirmiereJolie replied to ccstudentpsychnurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm sorry, but you just sounded extremely spoiled. Here your mom is practically letting you live with her for free for two years, paying your rent, your living expenses, buying you food, maybe even...

  6. It Can Be Done!

    InfirmiereJolie replied to ksecatero21's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good work! :D I'm going to be taking Micro and Chem 1 together this semester with a GE class (communication

  7. TEAS soon!

    InfirmiereJolie replied to Nursingstudent93's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    I'd say bring your driver's license ID too (No brainer, right? How else are you supposed to get there?) because they may want to see it before the test. Mine had us all show our ID's and ATI #'s. It...

  8. Finished pre-reqs....now the waiting game begins!

    InfirmiereJolie replied to SopranoKris's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Where I live (California) there is a 3 year wait list/ lottery for the local community college. It's only for an associate's too. That's why I'm hoping to get into the local university for the BSN,...

  9. Student Loans to finance my CC tuition, basic living expenses all the way through BSN

    InfirmiereJolie replied to ccstudentpsychnurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think you should stay at home and be more appreciative that you have that opportunity. There are some people out there who don't have a good relationship with their family or have no relationship at...

  10. Which professor should I ask for a letter of recommendation?

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

    Well, if there are only 3 options, and only 1 is going to be from a science professor, then the 2nd letter will be coming from someone not necessarily relating to your major. The most important letter...

  11. Yale GEPN Applicants 2013

    InfirmiereJolie replied to JustD16's topic in Post Graduate Students

    I know someone who got into the physician assistant program from my college. Your posts sound

  12. Male nurses student and skipping OB/L&D clinicals

    InfirmiereJolie replied to Jfarmboy's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Why didn't they do a C-Section?? Isn't the point of them is to stop dangerous childbirths?? Sorry, I was browsing and just saw the post here about your cousin, hope they get well. I'm not actually in...

  13. Yes! I've been accepted into Nursing School!

    InfirmiereJolie replied to Manofstone's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    That's great!! If I get in for Fall 2013 my Cal Grant will be paying for the two years of tuition in FULL Then I will only have to pay for one semester myself (my program has 3 semesters). You are...

  14. Which professor should I ask for a letter of recommendation?

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

    Sometimes professors will nicely let you see the letter before they send it in, some will not. Could you ask someone you've already asked for a letter before and then you know they are good...

  15. I find it depressing...

    InfirmiereJolie replied to QuarterLife88's topic in General Students

    The one thing I thought when reading this is that in CALIFORNIA there are PLENTLY of male nurses There are many (or it seems to me) male pre-nursing students and nursing students too. Maybe you...

  16. Finished pre-reqs....now the waiting game begins!

    InfirmiereJolie replied to SopranoKris's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congrats!!! I'm going to be applying this January - March too, but my program lets me take classes up until the summer, so I still have Micro and another Chem to do! So far I have A's also and hope to...

  17. Which professor should I ask for a letter of recommendation?

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

    Why don't you ask all three then choose the best

  18. What class to take with Chemistry?

    InfirmiereJolie replied to 7237dallas's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think longer classes like for the full semester is better if you're taking more than one class and working (esp. 40 hours a week!). It's less intense and better when assignments might overlap the...

  19. Fall 2012 A&P2 students where are you??!!

    InfirmiereJolie replied to Nurse2b7337's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm taking Physiology (at my college they call it that and not A&P2) and so far it's been good except the last lab test. I get my score next week and I hope it's OK and maybe I can get middle to...

  20. Teas 5

    InfirmiereJolie replied to tukisha's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    The McGraw Hill book is good and very accurate to the actual test's difficulty. I used it and the ATI book (slightly) for an 83.3% after one day of

  21. What class to take with Chemistry?

    InfirmiereJolie replied to 7237dallas's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi, I would take the Intro to Psychology first and the Sociology second. If the professor is an "easy A" this helps. The reasons for the "easy A" is might be that he/she is an interesting professor...
