BeachsideRN replied to Joveal's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

This. I so wish someone would have shook me and forced me to listen to this advice many years
Why is it so hard to get A's?

BeachsideRN replied to KatFUTUREnurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

Yes. A survey (introductory) course. I recommend flash cards for definitions and reaction memorization. Learning the language of chemistry is the first step. Then if you get into stereochemistry get...
LSUHSC 2016

BeachsideRN replied to rnkae's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

Interviews are nothing to be scared of. Basic stuff. Similar to the stuff you write about in your application essay. Why nursing? Why LSU? Long term goals. Etc. good
Why is it so hard to get A's?

BeachsideRN replied to KatFUTUREnurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

And I'm guessing the "intro to orgo" class that you are taking that doesn't require gen chem 1&2 as a pre req is also a survey class and not the same as organic chemistry. I say this as someone...

BeachsideRN replied to WCSU1987's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

Why is it so hard to get A's?

BeachsideRN replied to KatFUTUREnurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

Ok. I looked it up and As I suspected the course required by Lewis is not in fact Organic Chemistry is it a survey class called "Introductory Organic and Biochemistry" which only requires HS chem as a...
Why is it so hard to get A's?

BeachsideRN replied to KatFUTUREnurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

What nursing program requires orgo? Are you sure it is actual Organic chemistry and not a survey class? Or is this a fly by night
Nursing is a career that I would love to do

BeachsideRN replied to Soon2beStudent's topic in General Students

As long as your doctor determines that you are healthy enough to do the work required they will sign off on your physical. You will also need to have proof that your immunizations are effective (blood...
Why is it so hard to get A's?

BeachsideRN replied to KatFUTUREnurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

How did your school let you enroll in Ochem before gen Chem and bio? I have a bachelors in Chem and OChem is hard as crap and definitely has
Radiology or Sonograpy then ABSN?

BeachsideRN replied to Ready-Set-Go's topic in General Students

Also, I don't know where you got the info about ABSN being less competitive than traditional programs, I have found the opposite to be true since the ABSN programs accept fewer students per year. For...
Radiology or Sonograpy then ABSN?

BeachsideRN replied to Ready-Set-Go's topic in General Students

I could NOT agree more with LuvScience. Very expensive route to take on a gamble on bringing your GPA up enough to be competitive for an ABSN program. The major won't give you an edge in admissions...
Advice on Dropping Pharm??

BeachsideRN replied to falcon53192's topic in General Students

Um, you have to check your school's policy. I am sure in an accelerated program there isn't much time for makeups. In my general program we have to take pharmacology concurrently with our nursing...
ABSN Prerequisite Options?

BeachsideRN replied to secretsquid's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

I've got a previous BA and masters and chose an ADN program because it was the most cost effective and family friendly
ABSN Prerequisite Options?

BeachsideRN replied to secretsquid's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

Another route would be to apply to a traditional BSN or even ADN program they won't have the same requirements for ABSN and end up in the same spot -

Anyone See Blosson Brown on the I am Cait show?

BeachsideRN replied to Riawahine's topic in General Nursing

That article indicates that she is now in a wait list. Which says, to me, that she isn't academically strong enough for full admittance. I think she is making an issue where there is

BeachsideRN replied to Nkay2018's topic in Nursing Career

Wow. Sounds like NursingCAS is causing some issues. Sorry you guys are going through
Anyone See Blosson Brown on the I am Cait show?

BeachsideRN replied to Riawahine's topic in General Nursing

I live in the south and go to nursing school in the south, we have a very diverse student population. Furthermore, only 1 of the schools I even applied to required an interview - the majority of them...

Anyone See Blosson Brown on the I am Cait show?

BeachsideRN replied to Riawahine's topic in General Nursing

So, she was just on Ellen, with Caitlyn Jenner. She says she was denied 6 times, primarily because she's transgendered. Claims to have a "good GPA, I make all A's and did well on my ACTs" and is...
Ebook or Textbook?

BeachsideRN replied to Injection Nurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

The only feature I don't hate about ebooks is that your device will read the chapter to you. It's a crazy computer voice but pretty nice when you can't sit down to
Ebook or Textbook?

BeachsideRN replied to Injection Nurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

I hate ebooks. My program "required" them (or so they told us at orientation, not factual at all). I ended up buying used hard copies to study

BeachsideRN replied to Beautiful_Soul's topic in General Students
