  1. Where do I go from here ?

    I'm not familiar with South University, but those classes do sound right (again, just be sure they're transferable and that they're exactly the right ones for nursing programs). You can probably take...
  2. Where do I go from here ?

    Ugh. Did you take a couple of 5 unit A&P courses, 5 unit microbiology, and 5 unit chemistry courses? If so, those are the main prereqs for nursing, so at least if those are done, that helps....
  3. CA License as a Texas New Grad

    Yes, you can start the application process now. We all submitted our apps prior to graduation. You'll want to make sure that your curriculum and prereqs meet the requirements for CA (I'm not sure...
  4. Summer Class Questions

    Ah, okay! I was like, Um, these courses probably have some work to them!
  5. Where do I go from here ?

    What is your goal with it? What were you under the impression that it would do for you? I'm just curious. Did they promise you that it would help you in some
  6. Biology courses

    Yes. Prerequisite courses for nursing generally have labs as a mandatory part of the course. Nursing programs will not accept courses without a lab
  7. very curious

    Yes, the first time you burp a colostomy bag... That sticks with
  8. Where do I go from here ?

    No. This program probably won't help you, honestly. Nursing programs are set curricula with prerequisites and their own application process. I believe URI and CCRI have nursing programs (double...
  9. NCLEX #2 Tomorrow!!!!

    Good luck! And be sure to get plenty of sleep tonight and a good breakfast in the AM.
  10. PVT?

    I don't trust the PVT. I haven't taken mine yet, but I know here in CA, it can take up to a month to get official notification. I didn't know there was something like Quick results, but I need to...
  11. Lab values and nclex

    Digoxin and lithium levels, PT/PTT/INR, CBC & CMP, cholesterol (including HDL, LDL, and TG), ABGs. Don't forget normal VS for all age ranges, too. I have them all (along with other stuff I'm...
  12. No results since may 5 nclex rn exam..

    When the OP said she got the good pop up on Pearson, that's what she was talking about. If people mention the good pop up of the PVT (Pearson Vue Trick), that is what they're
  13. No results since may 5 nclex rn exam..

    According to the BRN FAQs, it can take up to a month to be officially notified. One week wouldn't surprise
  14. Summer Class Questions

    I don't think that's something anyone else can answer for you. My own experience was last summer taking 3 courses (3 units apiece), but only two were at the same time. There were two short sessions...
  15. Biology courses

    You do understand that every college has a different numbering system, right? 3+ hour lab is common practice for the prereq biology for RN
  16. Applying to nursing school

    I say apply. The worst that happens is they reject you, and you apply again next year. However, if you don't apply this year, you DEFINITELY won't get in. I would notate somewhere (and they will...
  17. very curious

    Have you gone through the forum a bit yet? There are a TON of posts answering exactly
  18. New Guy,Military,Career Change

    YES, call the schools and ask if they have any kind of vet preference. That definitely
  19. interview questions???

    Of course they will all vary, but when I interviewed at CSULB, it wasn't what I was expecting at all. They had a group of us there, and they interviewed us more by having us do projects together...
  20. OB Nursing Care Plan books

    I always just used my regular NANDA Nursing diagnosis manual. Remember that they may have more than simple, "lady partsl birth, acute pain" going on. A book like that tries to fit people into a box...
  21. Terrified about student loan debt. ADVICE

    It's very smart that you're paying the interest while you're in school. That will save you a lot in the end. That said, the longer you try to stretch out your loan, as OCRN63 said, the more interest...
  22. New Guy,Military,Career Change

    Do you know what you specifically need in order to transfer? Would you be transferring to attend the BSN
  23. psychotherapy in usa

    Looks like (from your tags) you're moving to Florida? I would research any psychiatric health boards for the state and go through their FAQs and perhaps e-mail or call them to get an accurate
  24. Terrified about student loan debt. ADVICE

    Yup. What did you think it would
  25. That's tough! I did it starting one class at a time when my son was an infant like that (I think about 5 months old at the time). I eased in slowly when I went back, but I also wasn't a single mom...
