I feel like I wrote this post! I’m also a surgical night shift nurse that just accepted a day shift rehab job. Are you liking it?

Thank you for such a thorough reply! I def will & best of luck with your residency!!

Sorry not related to your question, but was it hard applying to residencies in Texas even though you dont live there? We are considering moving to Texas when im done with schools, but I feel like if i apply to residencies they wont consider me because im out of state. Any advice?

What about doing a Cna course?

I did horrible in the science portion 53% because I had only competed anatomy and physiology 1 when I took it and most of the stuff was from a & p 2 / physiology. So for me it was hard. My math and reading scores were in the 90% which bought my percentage up ( 70 overall for my school.) I got an 80 overall. I didn't see any study tools when I was studying, but if you're good at math/ reading and go over physiology you should be ok!

Math- fractions, percentages, dosage calculations, conversions etc. science- lots of physiology and body systems, reading and writing were pretty straightforward

I did stats online this past spring and got an A. Make sure you read the book and any videos the instructor posts and are comfortable teaching yourself. If you are ok with math you should be fine. For our class we used statcrunch which I thought was very helpful

I've went to the er a handful of times for a migraine. It was the worse pain I've ever experienced in my life. My cousin went to er for a migraine. Turns out it was a brain aneurysm, so to you it may be a simple headache, but you don't know what that person is experiencing or feeling or that "headache" is actually something else.

Not saying this is the case, but sometimes it's cheaper or more cost efficient for someone who already holds a bachelors degree to do a direct entry masters to become an Rn, because of federal loans etc. just something to consider.

I live in Cheyenne. I go to the community college here. Crmc is hiring lots of rns right now. Not only for residencies they will hire new grads in certain departments to, so apply to all of it.

I sent you a pm with info

I have researched this before and found some. I don't remember them right now but I will post when I do. University of Wyoming has a dnp program.. But I'm not sure if you want to do dnp or msn. U do not need Rn experience to do university of Wyoming dnp program. It is online but it is mostly full time coursework. Good luck! And congrats! I am just starting nursing school this fall and eventually want to be a nurse practitioner

Not sure if you want to do Chem, bio and ap2 in the same semester. When I did ap2 I also did micro , but that wasn't bad for me. I'm doing bio and stats now online and I'm doing chemistry in the summer in 5 weeks. My nursing classes start in the fall. I heard Chem is tough

I did anatomy and physiology 1 online last summer in 8 weeks. It was hard but doable. The main thing is time

I'll pm u :)
