  2. Starting Prereqs finally!!!

    Fantastic! Good luck this
  3. What job be better while in nursing school?

    If the goal is to be a RN, aim for CNA. Some schools require state certification as a pre-req to nursing school itself. It will be very demanding on the body but I feel as the pros outweigh the cons....
  4. Do all nursing schools give the TEAS test?

    Where I live, schools here vary. My school requires the TEAS, one school I want to go to for BSN doesn't require the entrance tests, some of the more rural schools require tests I have never heard of...
  5. Pre-Nursing MOMS Unite!

    Glad to see you are doing well yourself! I got a B- in Human Biology (A- on my final) Waiting on my other class results as the final grades aren't posted till the 17th this month. I found out I was...

    Human Bio: A- on my final, B- in the class. Elementary Algebra I: Will find out in a few days but I maintained a 95% in class The College Experience: Will find out in a few days, had a B at midterm....
  7. How many pre-reqs do you have to go?

    That's where I am kind of ticked off. They revamped my school's program and unfortunately I won't be done in time to be grandfathered in. My new ones are A&P 1, Intro to Chem, College Algebra,...
  8. Should I try out Social Work

    Try applying for Nursing School again. You may not start till next year or you get rejected again, but plenty of members on this board will tell you they never gave up even if they got rejected....
  9. Associates degree chamberlain or Breckenridge

    These schools are set up to prey on you, and cater to gullible people. It really boggles my brain why people aren't as selective in their choice of schools, as they are when they go to the mall and...
  10. Yay its that time again!!!

    This would be my second semester back to school! So excited to go to school. I've never been so excited about school
  11. College questions

    Unless you're going to medical school, don't bother with pre-med. Pre-med is mainly hard science and math classes; more than you actually need to enter nursing school. You enter as Pre-Nursing if BSN...
  12. Should I just give up?

    I think it's time to take a semester off and regroup while meeting with your advisor. If you want to be a nurse, good for you. If you don't, it's okay. A bunch of us have changed our majors or careers...
  13. Can i ever become a nurse?

    For being out of date, I don't know why they would hold that against you... Google schools in your particular area and contact the Nursing program advisors. Ask them about the GPA, their position on...
  14. Where and when do you study?

    I study at home or school. If I am at home, it's in the living room on the couch by the window open because I enjoy the fresh air coming in. At school, if I had time between classes, I'd make the most...
  15. whats your plan B

    My backup plan if nursing doesn't pan out for me is to get a bachelor's in Equine Science. I wouldn't mind becoming a stable manager and a riding instructor, OR revamp the family business which was...
  16. If you want to be a nurse and interested in the holistic side, I'd say go for your RN and then find a way to certify in Holistic nursing. Keep an open mind throughout your education :) Some people...

    Hey, mom of 1 here, and just started my pre-reqs this summer! I found out today that I have a 3.66 GPA after summer semester! It will be an amazing journey full of laughter, tears, and work. It's...
  19. Advice for a low GPA student.

    I will admit I am kind of torn on this about advising what you can do but either you can stick it out for Sociology and earn your degree, then start pre-reqs for an ABSN program. That's having a...
  20. Frightened by Apparent Ineptitude

    Go directly to someone involved with the nursing department, or request a new advisor that is more specific to the health careers. I actually bypass the advisors at my school if it's health sciences...
  21. Recipes for when school starts

    Highly recommend Sparkpeople and Sparkrecipes because they are healthy, and very delicious. Most of them are user submitted and coaches submit theirs too. My personal favorites are turkey chili, and...
