    UMMC Application Status

    Yes! Ask to speak to a nursing recruiter regarding an application you submitted and then explain the situation to them. They should be able to pull you up and your status. Recruiters are the middle...

    I have applied to a few positions there but they didn't have anything posted for NICU. I've basically been applying to womens and childrens positions and also had an interview for a general surgical...

    UMMC Application Status

    I applied to NICU! I just spoke to a recruiter today and I know she was on vacation this past week, so I am sure she is trying to play catch up and it's only Monday. Hopefully you'll hear something...

    Make It STOP!

    Yes! Especially #4!! It bothers me when people ask a homework question and just expect an answer or people to do it for them. I feel like people should say "Well I came to ______ answer and this is...

    I have applied to UMMC and interviewed there recently and been in contact with a recuiter. I know she is out of the office til next week so perhaps you'll receive something within the next week or so?...
  9. Hey there! It's perfectly fine to be nervous doing certain skills! You'll most likely practice them in labs and you will have an instructor with you (or nurse depending on how your school does...

    BSN or Biology

    I agree that if you want to be a doctor, go for it. You shouldn't settle. However, if you feel that nursing is something you might want to do, look into being a Nurse Practitioner but I'd recommend...

    Pregnancy jr year?

    My advice would definitely be to wait. Nursing school is a lot of work and focus and it gets harder with more clinicals and hours spent at the hospital, so it would be wise to wait and see how it goes...

    OB question

    That doesn't automatically mean you failed if it shut off at 85. My RN shut of at 75 and I passed so it could mean that you did well enough that they shut it off at 85 for you. Keep your head up! Good...

    What is the grossest thing that's happened to you???

    I was a student nurse working with an elderly women who I put on the bed pan and she peed. I put a chux in the bedpan. When she was done, I went over to the toilet that had a shower curtain around it,...

    I am ashamed in myself

    I have to say that this post was a little frightening to read. Nursing school is a very different type of class and test. Having a solid foundation in A&P is super important for med-surge and...

    Coffee blood

    I used to hate the taste of coffee but when I started nursing school, I grew to love it! There are tons of flavored creamers out there, my favorite is hazelnut. I'd reccomend trying one of those...
  19. Sorry this is so late. I hope you got accepted to Salisbury or NDMU! My GPA was 3.5 so I definitely think you would be good with your GPA! My TEAS score, I can't remember the exact score but it was...

    UMSON Fall 2015

    If you're worried about GPA, then taking courses at your school might be the best option for you. I think that's the only thing you can do. If you do get accepted, I would call them up and explain...

    UMSON Fall 2015

    I definitely don't think it will reflect poorly on you if you've taken those courses at a community college! I know lots of people do it! I believe you are allowed to re-take 2 pre-reqs and that's it....

    I'm sure it has to be Intro to Sociology. I don't think they would accept Deviant Behaivior since it's not an introductory class but a class focusing on a specific sociological
