    My school is saying I owe 1750!

    NurseGirl525 replied to futureRN_'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes, you are going to have to pay it back. You took their classes. I'm not understanding why you don't think you owe it. I'm sure you got your refund check back in September? That's when ours come...

    NurseGirl525 replied to Crew2Nursing's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I pay out of pocket at a community college. I am applying for some scholarships to see if I can get anything. I will be applying this spring also for next fall and will hopefully get in. I can't...

    So stressed out I don't know how much more I can take

    NurseGirl525 replied to MsDanielle's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I felt that way last week, believe me. I was so glad when I took my last final on Friday. I took the weekend to sleep and relax and catch myself up. I had been running nonstop since the beginning...

    Does National Accredited and Regionally Accredited really matter?

    NurseGirl525 replied to Ariel09's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It does matter if you want to transfer credits to a 4 year university. To me it is a complete waste of money if the school is not accredited. And yes it also matters when looking for a job and I...

    Post your Fall 2013 grades!

    NurseGirl525 replied to __patiently_waiting's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    We don't use a +/- system at my school either. That seems kinda like a really crazy grading system. Only a 100 points for the whole semester? Most of mine are somewhere around 600-700 and I have...

    Your best advice: How to do well in A&P?!

    NurseGirl525 replied to Boston_RN2B's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I got A's in both I and II. For me, I made sure I went to every class and took good notes and studied when I could. I really find it interesting so it wasn't hard for me to pay attention and learn....

    The Elephant in the Room

    NurseGirl525 replied to Anna Flaxis's topic in Emergency

    Until you lived it, you just have no idea. It gets to the point where you are so stressed out and sick and the Elephant doesn't even want to take you to get looked at. He's ****** that he's there...

    I Did Not Make It Into LVN School...Again

    NurseGirl525 replied to Puddin2day's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think that learning medical terminology is important. It helps with so much. Especially in Anatomy and Physiology and Micro. I took it 15 years ago when it was a requirement for programs and I...

    NurseGirl525 replied to Maya12's topic in General Students

    I'm confused. What do you mean by straight A nursing student? Are you in the program and taking your coreqs or still doing your prereqs? Everywhere I know of anatomy is a prereq and you have to get...

    Unrealistic nursing students

    NurseGirl525 replied to dnsonthego's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think it matters why someone goes into nursing. I don't necessarily agree with the people that proclaim it's calling and it's their passion. And if you don't have this "calling" then nursing...

    Remind me to just deal with it/Venting.

    NurseGirl525 replied to Autymnfyres's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't know. My school is a community college but it is very clean. And well organized. I would hate to go to a filthy place without a good internet connection. My school just has vending...

    last micro assignment, DONE!

    NurseGirl525 replied to RHill9919's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    We had 2 unknowns to do but it wasn't anything that intensive. We ran the labs and decided whether they were positive or negative and used a dichotomy key. It was very straight forward and simple....

    Paying for Winter Session! How did you?

    NurseGirl525 replied to Ariana214's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    One of the benefits of my divorce is that my ex has to pay for all of my schooling. That was a huge relief for me since I didn't want to have to take out any loans. I told him it was my payment for...

    I loved micro also. I am kind of sad to see it end. I have class on Monday and Tuesday then I am done. Today was my last A&P II lab. Next week is lecture final. Not so sad to see that end....
