  2. Is nursing school worth it?

    goddess9 replied to CantDecideUsername's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You sound very uncomfortable with the idea of nursing (at least with the costs) . I always tell people to follow their gut. If you don't want to do it, please don't do it. An accelerated BSN can be...

    goddess9 replied to Audrey_J's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  4. Studying tips for summer school

    goddess9 replied to dannygurl84's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    No, I didn't mean that you *can't* do it. Some people can and do well. I just don't generally recommend it. I hope you absolutely ace all of those

  5. Studying tips for summer school

    goddess9 replied to dannygurl84's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Normally, I wouldn't advise anyone to take more than two summer courses sure to the accelerated pace and workload... However, you need to become really great at time management. Carve out times where...

  6. BSN or ADN?

    goddess9 replied to SweetSouthernLove's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I waffled with a similar situation and I decided to just go for the whole shebang. If your area's hospitals are magnet/trying to go magnet, and that where you want to be, go for the

  9. Do you ever find yourself comparing where you are to where other people are?

    goddess9 replied to kdpatula's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm more so competitive with grades. This is my first pre-requisite and I can tell I won't take not being the best well... I know I need to hit everything out of the park to get into a program here....

  10. How long did it take you to do your prerequisites?

    goddess9 replied to carys's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    18 months at worst, 12 months at best. Then 2.5 years in nursing

  11. Rent or Buy A&P Texts?

    goddess9 replied to hmowry's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    When it comes to Anatomy, I bought an anatomy textbook way before I even needed it and refer to it constantly. They're online for cheap! Textbooks depreciate quickly so you can get a pretty recent one...

  12. Who's taking summer courses?

    goddess9 replied to kwilson251's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm taking Intermediate Algebra (I don't technically need it but I didn't feel ready to retake Stats yet... I got a C+ in Stats during undergrad) and Chemistry. So far, I have an A in

  13. Sallie Mae or Wells Fargo

    goddess9 replied to Davis.M's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Sallie Mae is the spawn of the devil. I deal with them for two loans and they are seriously frustrating! Private loans don't assure you the rights that federal loans do... They don't have to grant you...

  14. Accepted to two programs but having trouble deciding which one to attend.

    goddess9 replied to hardworkinmom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I graduated my undergrad program with 70k in loans (we had no means to pay out of pocket and this was before the financial collapse). I make about half that amount in income and I make my payments...

  15. Accepted to two programs but having trouble deciding which one to attend.

    goddess9 replied to hardworkinmom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I know people don't like loans, but personally I would go for the hospital program. You will most likely make enough money when you're working in the field that it wouldn't hold you back. When it...

  16. Just received a A D+ in psychology

    goddess9 replied to Cristian C's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Retake the class and really give it your time. Psychology is fun (but I'm biased... I was a Psych major) and it can be hard, but this shouldn't hold you

    goddess9 replied to Shelexis's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congrats! You worked hard for those grades so feel free to show off! I'm back in school after a 4 year break and I feel that I'm a better student now. I am more disciplined and carve out time for...

  20. why so many negatives about nursing?

    goddess9 replied to confusedstudent20's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm not a nurse but I work in a helping profession. We all complain about what we do - especially those who help for a living, as it can definitely drain you. I do counseling/social work in a hybrid...

  21. What makes you stand out?

    goddess9 replied to notnursezelda's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I realize that nursing is more than the compulsion to help, but - I've noticed over the past few years that when someone is hurt or something is wrong, I don't run away...I run toward the event. I...

  22. Prereq help! (From previous degree)

    goddess9 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    So, Philadelphia's nursing schools are not friendly to the full-time working adult. There are about 3 programs in a 50 mile radius that offer a part-time, night and weekend BSN program. I have a prior...

    goddess9 replied to goddess9's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    goddess9 replied to goddess9's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you! I hope so. I bought a college-level AP and Micro book and I'm really looking forward to learning some basic concepts. I already memorized bones and most of the muscles. Hands and feet are...

  25. Best way to handle a delusional patient when they accuse you?

    goddess9 replied to imapsychrn's topic in Psychiatric

    I'm an MH counselor in a psych facility, and we deal with this a lot. You get accused of doing things you didn't and maybe even accused of being someone else. It happens, but I usually try to...
