  1. Working during nursing school

    Guinevere39 replied to Southern Magnolia's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Good for you!!! I just finished my first year, as well, but am still waiting on grades!

  4. What is the grading in you school

    Guinevere39 replied to Kimynurse's topic in General Students

    93-100 = A 84-92 = B 78- 83 = C Below 78 = Failing It's tough to get a 92% on something and know it's a B.

  5. NAU Fall 2013 Hopefuls

    Guinevere39 replied to twss2323's topic in Arizona Nursing

    There is student insurance available through NAU. It's the "major medical" and it's through Aetna. You can get it by semester and it comes out of your financial aid. And yes - sorry, the...

  6. NAU Fall 2013 Hopefuls

    Guinevere39 replied to twss2323's topic in Arizona Nursing

    No, everything was pretty simple. I had everything done except the TB test (because that has to be done within a certain time period before classes begin) and was waiting around on that before I could...

  13. Having a nursing student/partner in crime

    Guinevere39 replied to Mandy0728's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It will just happen that you'll be closer to some people in your program than others, but it's a really good idea to try to mix it up and be friendly with everyone (even if you still have one go-to...

  14. How many schools did you apply to?

    Guinevere39 replied to jennco's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I applied to my first choice and didn't get in, and applied to my backup and did get in (and ended up being so very happy in my backup program that I'm glad I didn't get in to the first school). It's...

  16. Shadowing Opportunities

    Guinevere39 replied to acabadas's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I was able to shadow at UMC in Tucson while I was taking my prereqs, but that was several years ago, and I don't know if the rules have changed. Each hospital has a recruiter office that you should...

  17. Best way to study in the car

    Guinevere39 replied to chwcbesteph's topic in General Students

    My text book has audio keypoints for each chapter that you can download to a smart phone and listen to on your drive! We have the Mosby textbooks, but I'm sure others have a similar

  18. newly accepted student have a question

    Guinevere39 replied to newly's topic in General Students

    At my school, they brought a company in that took the urine samples on site. And no, you don't get to choose the date - that rather defeats the purpose! Congrats on your

    Guinevere39 replied to cassi_future_RN's topic in General Students

    After hearing from the cohort ahead of us that they ended up with three people failing, and had no idea that the people were struggling, my cohort (of 20) has talked a lot about not being ashamed to...

  20. school,work,child

    Guinevere39 replied to aperry05's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I worked full time and had kids during my pre-reqs and usually took 1-2 classes a semester. I would start slow, like some others have suggested, and if you find yourself not challenged, add another...

  21. Late Bloomer here. Am I too late?

    Guinevere39 replied to Mencey's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You're not too late! There are a number of "mature" students in my program that are your age or older, and both of the men in my program (there are 20 of us in my cohort) have a decade on you. It's...

  22. What areas of physio and anatomy would you go over before starting Nursing school?

    Guinevere39 replied to cnoto34's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would focus on whatever you found the most difficult the first time around. For me it's endocrine. Whatever you are fuzzy on - start there. If you feel like you have a good grasp, then I would...

    Guinevere39 replied to twss2323's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Good luck! I'm in my second semester down in Tucson and I absolutely love it. I'm so happy to be in this program. Not that it doesn't have its frustrations, as I'm sure every program does, but...

  25. I'm INNNNNNNN!!!!!

    Guinevere39 replied to dsb_fam's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congrats, Lumberjack! You'll probably need a hemostat, bandage scissors, and a penlight, in addition to the other
