    missmollie replied to MntEMStoBSN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    How to not Fail/Get kicked out/Get bullied?

    missmollie replied to happyinmyheart's topic in General Students

    Negative threads are memorable, while the positive ones are not. The best advice I can give you is to take everything in nursing school one hurdle at a time. Study, do practice questions, and work...

    Critical thinking skills...

    missmollie replied to Cruz.Cookie's topic in General Students

    Where do all the nursing students who keep getting rejected end up majoring in?

    missmollie replied to starter12345's topic in General Students

    If you've been rejected, then reassess your grades. If you have C's in any of your pre-req's, I would suggest retaking them if you believe that nursing is truly for you. Minimum requirements for...

    missmollie replied to Summers3's topic in General Students

    How on earth do you pay for NYU's ABSN program?

    missmollie replied to nyc1990's topic in School, College Programs

    70,000 is a lot of money for a degree in nursing. Regardless of whether someone goes to a community college or NYU, the only way that they work is by passing the NCLEX. The NCLEX doesn't change...

    Study so hard but still struggle? Advice please?

    missmollie replied to Summers3's topic in General Students

    C=RN. No one will care if you had perfect grades, or if you had C's. Because a C in Nursing school is pretty much a C+ or a B anywhere else. My personal study habits: 1. Attend lecture. Record...
