  1. Best order for science prereqs

    vitamingirl722 replied to thinkingcap's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took AP 1 one semester, than AP2 the next, than Micro and Chem together. I don't think it matters as long as you are sure to have enough time to study. Taking micro and chem together whilst working...

  2. Nursing vs OT- any thoughts?

    vitamingirl722 replied to KitKat416's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm still stuck on nursing too and wonder if SLP is too boring for me. I've had people warn me against nursing but my mom constantly tells me she would love it if I would go for nursing. But what...

  3. Nursing vs OT- any thoughts?

    vitamingirl722 replied to KitKat416's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm in a really similar situation. I did ALL of my nursing pre-reqs and got my associates from a community college this past spring. All I had to do was take the TEAS test and start the application...

  5. Macbook Air vs Macbook Pro

    vitamingirl722 replied to mmcc01's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Get the air! I got the pro in sept 2011 when I was a freshman and it is pretty darn heavy to lug around it weighs around 10 lbs. I chose it over the air bc I thought I would miss the cd drive but I...

    vitamingirl722 replied to vitamingirl722's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi, Just updating(for anyone curious): I ended up with the grade B in both classes as my overall final grades... I'm grateful to not have any C's and my GPA is 3.4 so I can't complain. But I can't...

  8. 2 finals in one wk

    vitamingirl722 replied to vitamingirl722's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I take the chem final today and I honestly think I'm going to bomb it. My fault for not being able to time manage/juggle my two sciences and work. The final is cumulative and the study guide was...

  11. Everyone Won't Succeed. And That's Okay!

    vitamingirl722 replied to TheCommuter's topic in General Students

    Eh, I have to disagree with this article. The situations Ernie has to deal with are up to him if he lets them hinder him or not. My parents were never involved in my schooling, asked about my grades,...

  12. A Mother Seeking Healthcare Career Advice for High School Junior

    vitamingirl722 replied to Psata's topic in Nursing Career

    Also forgot to add, some good resources for highschoolers that are looking into different majors would be the collegeboard site. They have majors seperated into categories and there is a "health and...

  13. A Mother Seeking Healthcare Career Advice for High School Junior

    vitamingirl722 replied to Psata's topic in Nursing Career

    Yes I completely agree! My parents(or any other adult) were never involved in my academic life and it would've been helpful to have someone help me research and find other options out there. I'm...

  14. UCF/SSC Spring 2014

    vitamingirl722 replied to rn-in-progress2013's topic in Florida Nursing

    To those who were accepted what were your stats? GPA, TEAS scores? I'm applying for Fall '14 just trying to get an idea of what they're looking

  15. How likely do you think I am of getting in? Advice to offer?

    vitamingirl722 replied to MsDanielle's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just realized I overlooked the part where you said volunteering was a requirement for your school, just try to meet the minimum requirement of hours in each area they are looking for, or work on...

  16. How likely do you think I am of getting in? Advice to offer?

    vitamingirl722 replied to MsDanielle's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've looked at a LOT of nursing school's requirements in my state and I don't think ANY of them care for volunteer hours/letter of recommendations, clubs etc. I'm not sure about your area, but in my...

  17. Nursing to Med School

    vitamingirl722 replied to Cg37387n's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Lol, wow at some of the things I read in this thread... My gyno is a DNP at a major hospital in my state... everyone refers to her as doctor so-and-so. Her coat obviously states her credentials...

  18. I want to go back to school for being a psych tech but am afraid of failing.

    vitamingirl722 replied to Pattie829's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Are you looking into becoming a nurse in the future or just psych tech? They are different positions. Sent from my iPhone using

  19. Statistics trouble

    vitamingirl722 replied to tp003102449's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Also if you use a textbook in class review the end of chapter questions/quizzes even the tough ones. Sometimes professors model their exams after those

  20. Statistics trouble

    vitamingirl722 replied to tp003102449's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Go to tutoring it could really save your grade, use them as teachers and to review your class lessons/notes/examples. It seems like your professor isn't helping you guys prepare well for the exams......

  21. Do you actually study A&P book for exam? or you just refer to it?

    vitamingirl722 replied to bearbearkim's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    When I took AP 1&2 I took the same professor for both courses. She gave us powerpoints basically summarizing key facts so I followed those like a bible, also I would refer to the book on tricky...

  22. Should i read any books to get a head-start for nursing school?!

    vitamingirl722 replied to Marsha238612's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I personally wouldn't bother trying to prepare for the curriculum, I don't think there is a way to prepare for that unless you find skimming textbooks to be helpful. I think reviewing NCLEX style...

  23. 16 year old Running Start Student. Interested in BSN.. But will my AA be help?

    vitamingirl722 replied to caseylynn97's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Talk with your highschool guidance counselor, I'm sure you can take the nursing pre-reqs as a part of your general AA though. Doing Dual Enrollment while in highschool is definitely not a waste of...

  24. Is anyone else this way?

    vitamingirl722 replied to mayninetytwo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think science in general always comes back to tiny holes tbh... Microbiology is pictures of cells clumped together as well. I don't really know what to tell you have you tried googling exercises to...

  25. Do you read all the text for science classes?

    vitamingirl722 replied to Trenata's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I follow study guides like a bible. In micro my professor uses Powerpoints so I follow those for the exams. In chemistry I read the examples on how to do problems from the book bc my teacher doesn't...
