  1. Georgia Highlands ASN Fall 2015

    dmk3 replied to LDHarkins's topic in School, College Programs

    Medic90....what hospital do you work at (private message me)? I work at two local hospitals as well. I only applied to Highlands as well. So nervous and anxious about tomorrow. Crossing fingers and...

  2. Georgia Highlands ASN Fall 2015

    dmk3 replied to LDHarkins's topic in School, College Programs

    I have all of the same thoughts and worries. I have applied to KSU but not for their nursing program...yet. If I don't I get accepted this year then it's onto some other major or program. These last...

  3. Too old for BSN?

    dmk3 replied to forever88's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    At 24 years old you are probably still wet behind the ears. I've seen hundreds, if not thousands of new nurses under 25 come and leave the career within the first year because it is simply not what...

  4. Georgia Highlands ASN Fall 2015

    dmk3 replied to LDHarkins's topic in School, College Programs

    First off....no need to be a nervous wreck so early! I can understand being nervous, but applications were due this week, almost a month after you applied. I think in the past I've heard that they...

  5. How do you accept the fact you might not get in?

    dmk3 replied to Idiosyncratic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks! I appreciate that! I thought about every last detail with continuing towards the nursing path, it is just not worth the agony. Honestly, it would be to appease my deceased parents which...

  6. How do you accept the fact you might not get in?

    dmk3 replied to Idiosyncratic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    ALL the schools around here are very competitive. I can't travel too far because I have 3 children to look after, and I'm not the "bread winner". I wouldn't be giving up, just changing my

  7. Working While in Nursing School

    dmk3 replied to alihoff93's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I went to an open house for the LPN program today. They said they schedule clinical time for 12 hour shifts and that does include Saturdays and Sundays. I only work Saturdays at the hospital, I've...

  8. How do you accept the fact you might not get in?

    dmk3 replied to Idiosyncratic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    havehope.....I hope you get in for Spring!! I didn't think microbiology was as hard as the anatomy and physiology classes. I'm torn whether to give up the nursing, I would have to retake anatomy and...

  9. Can't get into nursing school!

    dmk3 replied to jellybean321's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am in a similar situation. Getting into the nursing program is a struggle. I don't really have any advice. If you REALLY want it, stick it out waiting or settle on a different health care related...

  10. I feel like I'm too old for this

    dmk3 replied to Lpn2014's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    23? You're still wet behind the ears!! My brother-in-law started med school in his 40s. I'm 40 and I know many that are older than myself going to school as well!! Us oldies only dream of being that...

  11. Are You A Victim?

    dmk3 replied to queserasera's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It is frustrating and exhausting to hear others complain. We all have circumstances!!!! Own up to your mistakes. We all make mistakes, not all of us can be perfect. Part of learning is fixing your...

  12. How do you accept the fact you might not get in?

    dmk3 replied to Idiosyncratic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I didn't get in the first time I applied, but I was prepared for it. I wasn't prepared for telling my classmates, co-workers or others that I was denied. I'm still dealing with to tell I was denied...

  13. Georgia Highlands Fall 2013

    dmk3 replied to DMC87's topic in Georgia Nursing

    amorganfreeman....Don't give in so easily. If you aced A&P2 you can take A&P1 again and do well. The TEAS doesn't count that much towards your score either, and you can take that a couple...

  16. Georgia Highlands Fall 2013

    dmk3 replied to DMC87's topic in Georgia Nursing

    In one of my online classes, a classmate said they called and they told her they were mailed out last week on Wednesday and Thursday. I don't believe it. I think they just finished the process and...

  17. Georgia Highlands Fall 2013

    dmk3 replied to DMC87's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I finished training staff at work then took a cruise for a week. Upon return from the cruise I've decided to torture myself by taking 4 summer classes. One word comes to

  18. Georgia Highlands Fall 2013

    dmk3 replied to DMC87's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Does anyone know if they send out the decline letters and acceptance letters at the same time? I've heard that in the past they send out decline letters in May and the acceptance letters in June. I...

  19. Are there really no jobs?

    dmk3 replied to stephanie30's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I know in my area (the South) there are plenty of jobs even for new grads. I have a friend that is an RN in the north and she changes offices every couple of years. She never has a problem getting a...

  20. Georgia Highlands Fall 2013

    dmk3 replied to DMC87's topic in Georgia Nursing

    @DMC87 I'm just being realistic. I don't want to get my hopes too high only to not get in. If I do get accepted it's because of the 15 years of experience in the OR, but they don't look at that. I...

  21. Georgia Highlands Fall 2013

    dmk3 replied to DMC87's topic in Georgia Nursing

    @sjutras yes I did calculate my score. I should have went in and had some advising and pointers when filling out the worksheet. I have this one class not done when I turned it in, but I was told last...

  22. What TEAS score did you get & did you get accepted in the nursing program?

    dmk3 replied to nursein2012's topic in TEAS Exam Help

    A friend of mine has an overall score of 98% on her TEAS V, she applied to two schools and did not get accepted to either one. She also has a bachelor's degree in the science

  23. Georgia Highlands Fall 2013

    dmk3 replied to DMC87's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Hi everybody!It's been a very long road getting to this point, so whether I get accepted or not I have no regrets. I applied as well for fall 2013, but I highly doubt that I will get accepted. I'm...
