  1. College Major?

    ThatOneDude822 replied to tmzmckinney's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It depend on the school. The school i go to, you just chose "Nursing (BSN)" on the application, but one of the other schools i applied to made us select "Undeclared with an interest in nursing." The...

  2. Does Anatomy get any easier?

    ThatOneDude822 replied to ThatOneDude822's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks so much for the feedback everyone!! Hopefully the fact that I'm interested in anatomy will make this class less torturous for me than it is for some others. My my exam was tonight and it...

  3. Best West Coast BSN Programs?

    ThatOneDude822 replied to Smwright19's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yea, Bakersfield isn't really great as far as location goes. Not really a "college town." For me, I'm used to it (like I said, I'm within commuting distance from the school) but for most people it's...

  4. Best West Coast BSN Programs?

    ThatOneDude822 replied to Smwright19's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I chose CSU Bakersfield because I'm close enough to commute, and they have an excellent program (NCLEX pass rates are in he 90% range), and the program isn't as competitive a some of the others...

  5. Chem HELP

    ThatOneDude822 replied to 2014Student's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Are you in intro chem or general chem? Are there any particular concepts you need help on? I find that khan academy is a great help in the science classes, and there are videos for most

  6. Best West Coast BSN Programs?

    ThatOneDude822 replied to Smwright19's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Honestly, I'm not very informed as far as the private universities go, but I saw you mention csula/lb and uci/ucla and just wanted to give my two cents since these ear schools I looked into a lot when...

  7. Take Intro to Bio or AP out of it?

    ThatOneDude822 replied to inkkedandproud86's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with dorkypanda in that you should check how your school factors in AP scores to your GPA. Some schools do it the way they mentioned, and I've also heard of schools who give you the units for...

  8. Gen Bio

    ThatOneDude822 replied to futurenurse18_'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think a lot of the time people find general bio to be difficult because it's all over the place! Animals, plants, cells, genetics, animal behavior, ecology, evolution.... It just gets confusing! I...

  9. Should I get my CNA over the summer?

    ThatOneDude822 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello: In mid September, I will begin my prereqs for a BSN at a 4-year university, which I'm very excited about. I got a few classes out of the way in high school, so I should be able to apply to the...

  10. Silliest answer someone has said in class?

    ThatOneDude822 replied to marvelmom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    In my chem class, the professor asked someone to write the chemical formula for carbonate. Of course everyone was expecting to see CO32-. Nope, they wrote C8. Apparently they heard carbon eight...

  11. Interview tomorrow! Help!

    ThatOneDude822 replied to GingerRN17's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congrats on getting the interview! That's so exciting! As far as what to wear, I'm not sure if the same goes for a hospital job (I don't see why it wouldn't), I was taught in a business class I took...

  12. Should I get my CNA over the summer?

    ThatOneDude822 replied to ThatOneDude822's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for the responses, caliotter3 & knnyz! I wasn't really intending on using it on my app for nursing school, seeing as I most likely wouldn't start the CNA class until after apps are due (if...

  13. Chemistry

    ThatOneDude822 replied to studentbear's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It sounds like your class is pretty basic, probably an intro chem class. It's most likely geared toward students with little to no knowledge of chemistry - it will probably be similar to a high school...

  14. Questions about Direct Admit/Entry 4 year BSN programs

    ThatOneDude822 replied to Mlcox17's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What state are you in? That's really going to affect the answer to this question. Here in California, UC Irvine and UCLA are the only 2 direct entry programs that I know of, and they are both...

  15. CSUB - Crashing Classes

    ThatOneDude822 replied to euisme, BSN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm hoping to apply for Fall '15. I got a couple prereqs out of the way in high school - I took AP Statistics w/ a 4 on the AP exam, and I took Chem 211 through the High School Academy, so I should be...

  17. CSUB - Crashing Classes

    ThatOneDude822 replied to euisme, BSN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm also taking my pre-reqs (including Anatomy) at CSUB this Fall. I haven't heard much about micro, but I have heard that Anatomy is pretty rigorous. Not necessarily difficult, but a lot of...

  18. Tips for Anatomy?

    ThatOneDude822 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi all, In the fall I'll be starting my first year at university (Cal State University, Bakersfield) to complete my prereqs for nursing. I went to my orientation yesterday and signed up for classes....

  19. Tips for Anatomy?

    ThatOneDude822 replied to ThatOneDude822's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks guys! I looked up my professor on ratemyprofessors.com and she continuously got really good reviews (though people were still stating that the class was hard, they said she was a very helpful...
