  6. How do you know if nursing is right for you?

    DadStudentPerhaps replied to halfglassfull's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think Nursing is like many skilled jobs, if you approach it as an opportunity to learn, the Veteran RNs will help you be successful. In contrast, if you come out of Nursing School thinking you...

  7. Anyone else bad at math?

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

    I'm good at basic math. I did get an "A" in College Algebra, but if I don't use a newly learned skill very often, I tend to forget. Sometimes I have to go back and

  8. How to ask for Letters of Recommendation-Feel embarrassed!

    DadStudentPerhaps replied to xInspiredx's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would not think twice about asking for a letter of recommendation from any of my professors. If you scored an "A", that is also a testament to their ability to teach. I don't think they would have a...

  9. Need help, feeling crushed!

    DadStudentPerhaps replied to angelmommy1985's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My school actually does have a "reset" policy. You can essentially have your grades wiped away and start over. I think your only allowed to do it once. Regarding transfers, every college has...

    DadStudentPerhaps replied to NursingBro's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Have you considered a part time RN position? At least until you are confident in your new business

  11. Nervous about my sciences , how much time needed for studying?

    DadStudentPerhaps replied to friendlyjane's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good call... I did my lab on campus, it was helpful having the instructor explain things that I didn't quit understand. Plus, I really enjoyed his class and even his tests. He would set up stations...

  12. A&P...is it really that bad?

    DadStudentPerhaps replied to laura.bunn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There is a lot of memorization... Just put aside the study time and you will be fine. I did mine online, had a lot of obstacles that semester, but I still got an

  13. Am I wasting time?

    DadStudentPerhaps replied to TimRace's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  15. Nervous about my sciences , how much time needed for studying?

    DadStudentPerhaps replied to friendlyjane's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Kahn University is a great free site online. He has plenty of videos to explain a host of different topics. Also, I forgot to mention in my previous post, I did A&P online and was assigned, on...

  16. caught up in a dilemma

    DadStudentPerhaps replied to Dave_S's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I guess I would ask "why" you scored average or below in all areas. Did you try to take too many Credit Hours? Are you working and going to school? Or is there anything else going on in your life...

  17. Recommendation for A&P?? Flash cards ,coloring books etc.

    DadStudentPerhaps replied to jess1029's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I did mine online through McGraw Hill. Each week I had anywhere between 50-125 study questions to look up, followed with a chapter test that would typically be 25-50 questions. Each question may have...

  18. Nervous about my sciences , how much time needed for studying?

    DadStudentPerhaps replied to friendlyjane's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think as long as you don't allow yourself to fall behind, it is doable. Just remember A&P lecture requires a minimum of 2 hrs study each day. Many days I studied 4 or 5 hours.... Partly because...

  19. Having to take A&P over again????

    DadStudentPerhaps replied to nolegirl8's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Lol.... I feel your pain, A&P Lecture put me through a whole range of emotions. I passed it and Lab with an "A"..... but I worked my butt off. Our school allows you to take them separately. I know...

  20. Scared of Failure..Anxiety..Fear..Second Thoughts..Need Advice Please.

    DadStudentPerhaps replied to 49*1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've dealt with anxiety for half of my life. I have had everything from mild anxiety to panic attacks. Anxiety can be a crippling thing, but it doesn't have to be.... Once you learn the warning signs,...

  22. Anatomy & Physiology

    DadStudentPerhaps replied to 1Luv_xo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took Biology back in 1985, and A&P I this Spring. My school will not allow you to take A&P without taking Biology first. It had been so long since I took Biology, the computer was prompting...

  23. Online Programs and State Licensing

    DadStudentPerhaps replied to ElisMom728's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree, you have to have an LPN before you can bridge to a RN. I also think Paramedics have a similar bridge program, but not 100%

  24. What Was Your Hardest Topic In Anatomy and Physiology?

    DadStudentPerhaps replied to DisneyNurseGal's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I found all the chemical transports in and out of cells boring..... but I loved learning the muscles, bones, etc.... So I guess I loved the Anatomy part and tolerated the Physiology

  25. Math rage

    DadStudentPerhaps replied to tayloramaRN2be's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I found a site on-line called Mathway.Com .... It cost me 20 something bucks to use the program for 3 months, but it saved my bacon when I took Algebra. You enter in a question and it not only spits...
