  2. First Day of Nursing School

    I start school on August 26th :) The only things I have left to do (and due by August 5th) are my BLS class, and my PPD test. I'm getting the first part of the PPD test tomorrow and my BLS class is on...
  3. Working while in nursing school?

    Well you either have the option of going as you have been, or getting pressured by your mother to have a job. It depends on you really, could you handle 10-15 hours a week for a job? I understand if...

  6. Need advice on Nursing School pre reqs!

    I dont think you will have a problem as long as you ace A&P and Micro. I wouldnt bridge LVN to RN unless you arent accepted into an ADN/BSN program right away. Depending on your area LVN to RN is...
  7. Can't get into nursing school!

    Thanks for finding out the cost, I was wondering how much it would
  10. Tallahassee Community College Fall 2013

    Well its kind of hard to get a flu shot when it isn't flu season, and no place in Tallahassee is offering them. I'm sure the problem will be addressed on orientation day, as vaccinations are not due...
  11. Just keep in mind that if you choose to retire in Florida later on in life, you will have reduced benefits compared to other states. Thats one of the reasons why many older people down here retired in...
  12. You might want to check into State College of Florida. They have a really good LPN to RN school there in South Florida and even offer an RN to BSN
  13. Please share your GPAs??

    I have a cumulative GPA of 3.2 and a pre req GPA of 3.1. My score on the HESI A2 was 92%, and I was very surprised I got into the nursing program at my school. I thought I would get in for the Spring...

  15. Classes

    Youll probably be pretty busy, but it is not impossible to do. Nutrition is a class you can do in your sleep for the most part, just a lot of writing. Medical terminology is essentially about...

    Does anybody know anything about the two series Hep B shot instead of the three series? The two series is the one I was given as a kid, but the health form has a box for all three vaccination

    I havent registered for classes yet, because I have not taken the initial orientation to the school, and wont until next week. Is anybody else having trouble finding a BLS class? I got the run a...
  19. "Back to School" Sales

    Sales where I live usually start right before the tax free days and a little after. That will be in August and I can't wait to stock
  20. Don't you want to be an NP?

    That happens to me as well, but instead I get the "why not just become a doctor instead?" I'm like because I dont want to go to school for 10+
  21. Tallahassee Community College Fall 2013

    I believe the state of Florida has some medical records digitized (like immunizations) so you may be able to check with your local health clinic to ask them. I did not go to the doctor when I was...
