Anyone else out there waiting for their Fall 2013 letters? I had an A in College Algebra from MSU, I'm taking A&P 1&2 Intensive courses this semester at EMCC, a 26 ACT, but only a 70 composite score on the Kaplan entrance exam. How about y'al...

I start my first semester of NS Aug 19! Orientation is on the 14 and I'm so excited! Maybe my fiancée will finally believe me when I tell him I will be eating, sleeping, and breathing NS for the next 2 years! My classes are: M/W 8-9:50 Nursing 1 M/W...

I chose my nursing school for the quality of its simulations lab and the clinical sites we will attend. Two of our sites are at the best hospitals in Memphis, one that is known for its ER dept and critical care and one that is the one of the best chi...

We have to get all our books from the bookstore because we have to have the access code. It's a giant waste of money!! Miss State was awful about access codes because we never actually used them for anything

When I attempted Chemistry, I took an 8am class completely unprepared. I didn't take Chem in high school and knew literally nothing about the wonderful world of chemistry. I took it at Miss State University and within 2 months I had failed miserably ...

For the 4 semester ADN program I'm in it'll cost about $1500 (give or take) a semester. Around $6000 total

Yea it helps to find and keep a job but I'm at a disadvantage if I were to apply to a bridge program. Most in MS are not online and the closest one is in Memphis but I don't really want to go there, so I could apply to a school 2 hrs away and hope fo...

Where I live (Miss) most of the hospitals have new graduate nurse programs set up specifically to employ new grads. I'm excited! The pay is good, and nursing can stabilize my financials. I can afford to get married to the love of my life, build a hou...

See I have been debating over whether or not to get a Kindle or an iPad.

How can I find these programs though??

I'd like to see the chart too! I'm interested in the chart, too, if you are willing to share! Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using allnurses.com

I got my acceptance letter on March 11

In North Mississippi there are quite a few "RN" and "F lobotomist" that are trained by their friends to help them get jobs. Veeeerrryyyy scary! My mother in law had a terrible experience with this. The poor girl was digging around in her arm so my M-...

OP, asking for and accepting help is not a bad thing. Obviously your okay with it seeing as how you seeked outside opinions. But receiving help doesn't always mean it turns out the way you want it to. You seem to feel extremely victimized by your nur...

Good luck to you too! I got my letter on Mon! I got in!! What about you??

I know how you feel, and it's time to ask for help. The Lord is a loving and merciful God and He will provide all things for his children. You are NOT ALONE!!!! The biggest mistake you can make is to feel bad for yourself. Instead of saying "I'm not ...

My nursing school is about 3 hours away from my parents, but only 40 minutes away from my future in-laws. My fiancees sister is my roommate and she too is going to apply to the nursing program. I chose NWCC because they have an AMAZING program (much ...

Thanks guys! I definitely like the wine consumption! LOL. My mind has been put a little more at ease. I'm taking Human Anatomy and Physiology intensive courses (they teach an entire semester in two months), so knocking out A&P 1 and 2 in a single...

I am starting nursing school in the fall and I've noticed how often people mention the stresses of nursing school. So my question is, how did/do you deal with the stress? I'm a stressful person by nature and I'm really starting to become worried that...

Thank you! This helps a lot! I hadn't thought about identifying my stress as a coping mechanism but your right it can be!

It's soooooo bad for you but I honestly CANNOT survive without an ice cold Coca Cola!
