    Thank you! I am studying very hard for my next exam. However, I have the lecture exam the day before, and an exam in another class the day before that. I think on this next one I will be lucky to get...

  5. Wrong chemistry for nursing program?!

    happyinmyheart replied to amberdragonfly's topic in Connecticut Nursing

    Definitely contact an advisor at your school. Every school is different, so what may be okay at my school may not be at yours, and vice

  7. Moving to Midwest

    happyinmyheart replied to gill24's topic in Nursing Career

    I would guess somewhere in the mid $20s. There are no mandated staffing ratios in Iowa like there are in California, so your nurse to patient ratios may be worse than before. How stressful it is will...

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

    I suppose by "smart" I was referring to book smart. Many of my friends can read our PowerPoint slides over a few times, and know everything. I have to spend days learning this information.... While it...

    I've definitely heard a lot of scary things about nursing school! I'm hoping I'll be able to handle it, but I guess I won't know until I get there :) Thank you so much for the encouragement....

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

    Thank you for the reassurance. I will do my best to work as hard as I can, and stay dedicated. I'm hoping that I'll be able to "think like a nurse". I hear so much about this, but since I don't start...

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

    I love that quote as well! I just went and wrote it in my planner :) I feel as though I can really relate to you, and that makes me feel so much better. I work my butt off to get my grades, so trying...

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

    I definitely hope that I'm smart enough to pass nursing school. I'm not academically gifted, but I'm am a very hard worker. I am a team player, so hopefully I can be that good coworker someday

  13. Not Naturally Smart

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

    I would definitely say that I am ready to put in the hard work that is needed. I have just heard countless horror stories about students giving it their all, and failing by a fraction of a point. My...

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

    I have only heard of this to a certain extent, such as not taking students who didn't get a 3.0. However, I suppose when there is a surplus of new grad nurses, the hospitals need an easy way to "sort"...

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

    Thank you! I agree that it is a difficult class. My college crams Anatomy & Physiology into one semester so it is also a bit fast paced

  16. Not Naturally Smart

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

    I've heard about that happening. I wonder what the GPA cut offs are though. If nursing school is almost impossible to pass, how high could the cutoff be? (I haven't started nursing classes yet so my...

    Thank you for the advice! I have taken multiple of those "What type of leaner are you?" quizzes and I always score equally in every area haha :) I think that flashcards, and teaching the information...

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

    You have a good point. My work ethic is pretty solid ( I would like to think). Hopefully it can get me through this class and nursing school! I'm jealous of those people with lots of natural smarts...

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

    It's comforting to have somebody to relate to! I just need to learn that it's okay if I'm not as smart as all of my friends. I am just hoping and praying that hard work will be enough to get me...
