  1. GPC Nursing Program - Fall 2015

    igotaxed replied to CRNA_hopefull's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I got my acceptance letter a couple weeks back as well! I'm super excited to meet my fellow nursemates. :) My TEAS score was 94 & GPA (science/prereqs) is 4.0. I'll say that I worked really,...

  3. Start from scratch or bring in old credits?

    igotaxed replied to uds16's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It's hard when you're going back to school after many years because you feel like you want to make up for lost time and go at lightning speed. I battle with that feeling every single day because I've...

  4. Stereotyping Male Nurses

    igotaxed replied to lvansick's topic in Male Nursing Students

    It's such a hard thing to really pinpoint because it's all a wash of so many different influences. Our biology dictates a lot of how we feel and act around each other and in society as a whole....

  5. 30+ club! Lets do this together.

    igotaxed replied to alynn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm 33 with a previous degree. Going back to school isn't the easiest thing in the world, but I love it. Two more pre-reqs to go and then applying to nursing schools. I'm super stoked!

  6. So many nursing majors in my class!

    igotaxed replied to mmcc26's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Agreed! ..and (not to be mean)... we don't need idiots becoming nurses. If the prereqs are too hard, you have no business being a nurse, right? Personally, I love the challenge of the sciences, and...

  7. So many nursing majors in my class!

    igotaxed replied to mmcc26's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    igotaxed replied to Glenna, LPN's topic in General Nursing

    I have a previous degree from a private college that ended up netting me about $49,500 in loan debt. I've been paying since '05 (with a few forbearances thrown in) and am now down to about $44,000....

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

    igotaxed posted a topic in Georgia Nursing

    I wanted to see if anybody had done that before. I was just thinking about how much extra you'd have to take in the ACE program if you already had all of the GPC nursing courses (and the degree, of...

    igotaxed replied to igotaxed's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Wow... Didn't realize you could do that. I'll just see where I stand when finishing a&p2. Thanks for the insight!

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

    igotaxed replied to igotaxed's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Thanks! So do you know if any GPC nursing courses would transfer over into the ACE program? Also, I should say that I already have a BA in music, so all my core classes (except pre-reqs) are

  17. GPC adding BSN in Nursing soon?

    igotaxed replied to igotaxed's topic in Georgia Nursing

  18. GPC adding BSN in Nursing soon?

    igotaxed replied to igotaxed's topic in Georgia Nursing

  19. Hospital volunteer interview today

    igotaxed replied to Bazi-preNursing's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm beginning a volunteer program at a local hospital soon, and I'm totally stoked. A nurse friend of mine strongly recommended it. Yeah, I'm not banking on it helping me get into nursing school...

  20. Recommendations for Pre-req order at Georgia Perimeter College?

    igotaxed replied to igotaxed's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Thanks for the advice! Yeah, I'm probably gonna take my sciences one at a time because those are the foundation of it all, and i really want to absorb them thoroughly. ...and I definitely don't want...

  21. is 25-30 too late to want to pursue a nursing degree?

    igotaxed replied to mee9mee9's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm a 31-year-old that graduated 8 years ago with a BA in Music. Now I am making the move into nursing starting in summer '13 (starting pre-reqs). My age doesn't bother me (as it pertains to...
