    BSN programs are harder than ADN

    Writing papers, whew, that must be hard. I have a degree in English and I've written some papers that are over 30 pages long (1.5 spaced, with MLA formatting). Granted, you may think it's tough...

    In need of advice

    Make sure the schools are accredited if they are nursing schools. It is a tough market to get into nursing school and the fact that you were accepted into three raises a red

    nursing school preparation???

    If you are still finishing up pre-req's, I would suggest taking a medical terminology course. Probably the best course I took that wasn't necessary to get into the nursing program at my

    Hesi Medical Surgical Nursing exam

    The HESI Comprehensive review for the NCLEX-RN Examination is what I used. We also have an individual HESI for each class, so I feel your pain there. The only other advice I have is to go with your...

    Nursing School Orientation Day

    Oh my goodness. I don't know anything about the school you are attending, but I can almost assure you that the school will not provide you with physical materials/supplies. They will provide you...

    a personal fear

    I still have a year of school left, but we go through everything so fast. I'm sure there will be things that I don't remember completely, but luckily information is at our fingertips. Never hurts to...
  12. It honestly depends on the program. Hopefully you have an orientation, and if so, that would be a great time to ask those types of

    Private loan and no co-signer

    I don't even think that regular BSN programs are that expensive. I just checked my alma mater and for one semester it's 8,890.00. According to what you need to come up with, it's way cheaper than...

    How ready are you for nursing school?

    @ openyourmind: I am so glad that someone is taking the advice to enjoy their summer! You'll understand why after you start and you'll be glad that you did.
  17. Edited because I didn't realize this was a necro thread. For the last poster, if you are considering how to pay for school and have ever had a job that you contributed money for a 401K, you might...

    How do I know if this is fit for me?

    Who cares why other people have chosen nursing. The real question is whether or not you like it, what your fears are, and why you're feeling burnt out on school. We've all been there at some...

    If you are able, go and review your test. See what you missed and compare the right answer to your thought process upon choosing the other answer. Was it something they covered in class and repeated...

    Starting a family during nursing school or after?

    I have not been pregnant while in nursing school, but I'm sure there are people out there who can do it. Since you're taking online classes, it might be easier since you don't have to wake up at a...
  23. Congrats on getting in! Don't let the paperwork intimidate you. They are just pieces of paper you have to gather and submit. Your GPA is great and you have obviously worked hard to get to this...

    Starting the program
