I went back to the school that I got suspended from (went to community college in the mean time) and finished up my pre-reqs + retook classes I did bad in to boost my GPA from there, thus boosting my cumulative GPA. I am now in a nursing program

Hey everyone I am in my second year of nursing school and I have to retake pharmacology. I was wondering what supplemental resources you guys used?

I'm 25 now, and I'll be 26 going on 27 when I graduate with my BSN. Is it old? No, but considering that some of my classmate aren't even 20 yet, I sure feel it. I once read on here something that stuck with me: Do you want to be __ years old and a n...

I've personally referred to myself as a "pre-nursing" student while I was taking my prereqs. I'm in my program now, but I still have a math class left. Once I start my first NR class in July, I will feel like an official nursing student. That's just ...

I've researched schools that have "first attempts only" for science pre-reqs, so I'm assuming withdraws count as an attempt. I doubt they would budge due to you having letters of recommendations but it never hurts to try. It comes down to the program...

I got my Titer and the first step of my TB done in the same day. Got the Titer results about a week later and my second step done about 3 weeks later (didn't know at first that I needed a 2-step)

One of the main reasons I believe I couldn't be a pediatric nurse. I'm not sure I could contain myself in situations like these especially since I am a mother myself. Thank you for sharing.

Hello all! I'm proud to FINALLY say that after 5 years I am starting my BSN program in January..........if I get an A in Fundamentals of Chemistry this upcoming fall semester . If I don't get an A, I wouldn't start until May, which would suck because...

Thank you guys !

Same as above. I love the idea of not knowing what's coming through the door, or what my day will consist of, which is why ER/ICU interests me. I also love being around and taking care of babies, which is why I'm also interested in NICU.

I got Critical Care Nurse and that's what I plan on pursuing :)

ER/ICU for me. I eventually want to get my Master's degree. I'm also open to Labor & Delivery

I took A&P along with history and nutrition in the same semester

I love fun threads like this ! "guilty pleasures" -caramel fraps from Starbucks extra caramel -oreos soaked in milk -mini churros from jack n the box -"jamocha" flavored ice-cream from baskin robbins -HOT WINGS with ranch -pepperoni pizza On a serio...

My spring break doesn't start until next week, but I will be spending mine like you are: gym and hanging out with my son. Looking forward to it! It's much needed :)

Love this! I was 17 when I knew that I wanted to pursue a career in healthcare. Started college with the hopes of becoming a healthcare administrator, but then I had my son and realized I wanted to be hands-on, so I started taking pre-reqs for nursin...

Great read... it really is unfortunate how much our society avoids/fears death. Sometimes it really is the best thing.

Hello everyone! I just wanted to say that whether you are just starting your nursing journey, or waiting to get accepted into a program , to keep going no matter how long you believe it will take. My biggest issue throughout college so far has been c...

I just have micro and fundamentals of chem left. I'm gonna tackle them both next semester

For me, I was originally interested in Pediatrics,but lately I've been leaning towards Emergency/ICU

CONGRATS!

Logic Interpersonal communications World cultures (re-take for grade mod.) Human sexuality(gpa booster) Since I won't be taking any science classes, this will easily be a 4.0 semester for me :)

Hello! I would definitely recommend re-taking classes to boost your GPA since its so important when it comes to applying for nursing school. Look into the nursing programs that you are interested in because they might have different minimum GPA requi...

I'm so glad I came across this post. I find myself feeling the same way from time to time but I have to remind myself that everyone's situations are different. I graduated high school in '10 so a lot of my peers just received their college degrees, a...

Hello everyone! I have a question: have you ever been or have heard of, a college not accepting you because you have multiple class drops? I ask because my advisors constantly ask if it would affect me getting into my program of choice(it won't in my...
