  1. Lasalle Achieve 2016

    I'm sure it's different if they know you've been through the process... I wish you luck on the NLN! I'm just anxious to get the papers in my hand, lol. It's been a few weeks so I'm like wait, do you...
  2. Lasalle Achieve 2016

    Hi! I remember seeing your posts when I was looking for information about the program. Have you applied? I know the deadline was March 1st, but maybe that's different for prior students? I have not...
  3. Is this doable?

    I would personally take Gen Bio before AP anything, but that's just me. That schedule would completely overwhelm me, but I've seen others do it. It really depends on how good you are at time...
  4. I feel weird to wear scrubs to school

    Honestly, who cares? If it's obvious that the nursing students wear white, then that should be enough. I saw a lot of my classmates wear scrubs because they were coming from work and I never once...
  5. Anyone else almost done with pre-reqs FOREVER?!

    Congratulations to you! I'm two weeks away from being done, too. It's really bittersweet - yeah, it was two years of hard work but it was also so very exciting. :) I'm reading to start nursing
  6. Lasalle Achieve 2016

    Bumping this. Did anyone end up applying? If so, did anyone get accepted? I'm awaiting an acceptance letter
  7. NLN Pre-RN/PAX Tips and Strategies

    Think of it like the SAT. It's a way schools can see how you do stacked up to your peers and is also an admissions indicator. It can definitely help an application by having a high
  8. It truly depends on the area in which you're applying. If it's an impacted area, you should probably
  9. Prerequisites - How long do they take?

    As above, it depends on how many classes you need to fulfill your school's requirements. I went part time with one class at a time and it's been two years. Your mileage will
  10. I'm scared

    I did the same with a science and worked full time... It's doable, but don't expect to have a thriving social life. The key is to stay slightly ahead of the material... That way by the end of the...
  11. Microbiology

    No, just
  12. pax (nln)

    It's based on those who are also applying to similar programs. The test is not pass/fail... It's percentiles. Most programs require you score a 50th percentile or higher to be
  13. Drexel ACE Fall 2016

    I just turned down my seat this past week. I hope it frees up some space for someone. Good
  14. Failing Statistics. Do I have a chance at passing?

    Why are you missing
  15. Going back to school @ 26

    Lol, you're still young. I'm 27, and am just finishing up my prerequisites. If you want to do it, you just do it. Take the first
  16. pax (nln)

    Scoring is from 0-200 with no correlation to percentages. They're percentiles based on your performance vs.
  17. NLN guide for taking Pax exam?

    I took the test with all of my sciences done aside from Micro. I scored in the 99th percentile. The book is definitely helpful and the test format was pretty much exactly the same. There were some...
  18. I have been accepted to one school, and am waiting for the other two to get back to
  19. Do undergrad credits expire?

    In Philadelphia, you'd need to take all the sciences again. It's 5 years for science credits... Check with your potential schools, they would be able to give you a clearer
  20. Honestly, unless they specifically say they'll "weigh" that on your application, I wouldn't go through that
  21. Weeding Out.

    I'm in the process of finishing up my prerequisites, and I've had professors say that this class is a built in weeder, but not because they purposefully make it so. The material is difficult and a lot...
  22. I doubt ill get into the nursing program

    I'm gonna be honest and say those aren't competitive grades... I would personally take less classes and focus on the few I had. Your Anatomy grades need to be strong, and with your grade in the first...
  23. You're still an undergraduate. 5th
  24. Drexel has a night and weekend program. I was accepted but at the info session, I was told that working is still not advised. Neumann has a part time evening program. That has no application deadline....
  25. Nurses, should I have kids now--or later?

    I'm almost in the same boat... I'm 27 and hoping to start nursing school this year. I'm a newlywed and kids are definitely on both of our minds. I'm waiting until I'm done with
