   Trust in Jesus replied to DesertRosee's topic in Disaster Preparation

   Even though the CDC claims that facemasks are acceptable alternatives in this shortage, they also say that for specimen collections you have to use something at least as protective as an N95...

2. COVID-19 "Tylenol Test" T /F?

   Trust in Jesus replied to T-Wave's topic in Disaster Preparation

   This is so ridiculous. I hope the public doesn't get confused and think that this is accurate (there was that crazy email that claimed to be from Stanford a few weeks ago). Tylenol will reduce one's...

4. Kicked out before even starting

   Trust in Jesus replied to Confused_nurse2b's topic in General Students

   Yes, this is true. All the paperwork for hospitals must be turned in on time. For most schools (maybe all of them), if any of your requirements expire during the semester, you can't go to clinical and...

5. Watches for Nursing Students

   Trust in Jesus replied to Monica.Aguilar12's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   I agree with the above poster, get a cheap watch. If it times out after 10 sec. you're going to have to tap it a lot and what if you're wearing gloves or your hands are dirty? It could be an...

   There's actually an interesting thread that was just started about the nursing shortage. Everyone has a different take on it. OP, you might enjoy reading it....

7. How long does it take to get ADN including prerequisites, on average?

   Trust in Jesus replied to r r r's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   There's typically a lot of pre-reqs (biology, anatomy, physiology, microbiology, english, math, etc.) and depending on how high of a GPA you need to be competitive for your school it can take a year...

8. ABSN vs ADN

   Trust in Jesus replied to psychheel19's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   At $40,000 for an ABSN program, I'm thinking doing the ADN plus Bachelor's will be way cheaper. You can do the bachelor's once your working - assuming that you can get a job in your area. Are you open...

9. ABSN vs ADN

   Trust in Jesus replied to psychheel19's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   Do you have your pre-reqs finished yet? An ADN degree is a good option because you can start working and then go on to get a bachelor's. However, some hospitals are really wanting BSN prepared nurses....

10. Less competitive schools in CA?

    Trust in Jesus replied to kpeacht's topic in General Students

    Study hard and do your best on the TEAS. Do more volunteering so that you can qualify for extra points. Then, apply to every school that you're eligible for and see if you get in. Additionally,...

12. Are there "easy" nursing schools to get into in California?

    Trust in Jesus replied to WillSu's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's a fairly good science GPA. I think you have a good chance of being accepted, but it all depends on the other applicants' scores. You can also apply to community colleges if you want to. Just...

13. TEAS vs NCLEX easiness

    Trust in Jesus replied to IreneLeong's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I haven't taken the NCLEX yet, but the TEAS is definitely easier! I think most of the TEAS exam is at a 7th or 8th grade level (like in English and Math). The NCLEX is pass/fail (except you do know...

    Trust in Jesus replied to galpalval's topic in General Students

15. Will getting my A.A. degree benefit me

    Trust in Jesus replied to chinny4213's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'd get the AA for just 3 more classes. You can add it to your resume and, also, some nursing programs award extra points for having a degree (it sounds like you are already accepted, but just in...
