  1. Student Health Survey

    augurey replied to augurey's topic in General Students

    Sorry it took so long to get back in here. GrnTea: I asked about this at my appointment Friday. My midwife said that she was able to fill it out. She also got me started on my Two Step Mantoux test. I...

  2. Student Health Survey

    augurey replied to augurey's topic in General Students

    Thank you Heathermaizy! The only thing I could check off on isn't something that would affect me in the classroom or in a clinical setting. I'm mostly worried about disclosing it, like you said,...

  3. Student Health Survey

    augurey replied to augurey's topic in General Students

    Thank you! I do have an appointment with my midwife this Friday. I will look into that as I alternate between her and the OB currently. I know the express clinic I go to will not do one as it's more...

  4. A&P Muscles - Origin, Insertion, and Function

    augurey posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took A&P last fall, but I am re-taking this fall as my credits won't transfer. I did very well last time (99%), but I do think A&P will be more difficult and will be reviewed more in depth...

  5. A&P Muscles - Origin, Insertion, and Function

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

    I'll have to try that (on a human body)! It was really the lecture portion that I struggled with. I just got lucky in that the exams had the information I knew I did really well with the anatomy...

  6. A&P Muscles - Origin, Insertion, and Function

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

    Thank you so much for the suggestions! I will definitely be giving all of them a try. I ordered a couple of coloring books. The reviews on the coloring books really make me feel like that will be such...

  7. Finally registered for first semester!

    augurey posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    While I'm bummed that it'll take 3 years to get where I want to be when my original graduation date (at a non accredited, BON approved school) was set for August 2016, but I feel like this is the...

  8. Finally registered for first semester!

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

    I honestly think that the English might be the best one to drop. The Algebra II and III together are 4 credits, 2 each. They are only half a semester each. So first half of the semester it'll be 11...

  9. Finally registered for first semester!

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

    Thanks! :) It'll be an experience, that's for sure! My daughter already keeps me on my toes! She really has been one of the biggest things to motivate me and encourage me to do this. I wanted to...

  10. Class/es and a Newborn...?

    augurey replied to TiniestLights's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    GrnTea, that manual pump looks so much easier to use than the one I had. I used my manual a few times to make sure I could use it in the event I needed to, but I felt like it was very cumbersome. I...

  11. Class/es and a Newborn...?

    augurey replied to TiniestLights's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Same here lol but not overflowing. I think my issue was we had latching issues. All they would do in the hospital was push formula instead of helping me with getting her latched (or checking for...

  12. Fall 2016 Nursing School Applicant Support Group

    augurey replied to emmjayy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Tell us about the school you're applying to. I'm attending a public university. Their main campus is about an hour or so away, but they have to regional campuses close by. I only knew of the one that...

  13. Class/es and a Newborn...?

    augurey replied to TiniestLights's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    First, I have to say I'm super jealous that you got 8 oz in 15 minutes! I was lucky to get that in 45 lol I second Medela. I had the free style. Though because my pumping needs were different, I...

  14. Is this messed up?

    augurey replied to RNstudent66's topic in General Students

    Did she specifically say that she wasn't going to tell her boyfriend? Not that it should matter to anyone but her and her boyfriend, but many couples do go off birth control and just let whatever...

  15. Advising appointment with DON - what to wear

    augurey posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Next Wednesday I'm going for an advising appointment with the director of nursing. She's just going to go over my transcripts and advise me on what courses I need to sign up for for the upcoming year....

  16. I've been accepted!

    augurey posted a topic in General Students

    And I can't believe it. I haven't heard back from my first choice yet, but I have little hope of getting in as I've read on here it's quite difficult to get in, but I tried anyway. If by some miracle...

  17. I've been accepted!

    augurey replied to augurey's topic in General Students

    Thanks! I talked to the nursing department yesterday and got a lot of good information. The website is confusing as far as what's required prior to the acceptance into the program. They do have some...

  18. Advising appointment with DON - what to wear

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

    Thanks for the input! I don't own any dresses, but I can try and see how I work out my other dress pants with the rubber band first. I think I'm bigger than I was with my daughter when I had her, and...

  19. Class/es and a Newborn...?

    augurey replied to TiniestLights's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think it's going to depend on how good you are with time management and prioritizing your time (and having a good support system). Your little guy is probably going to have a lot of check ups /...

  20. I've been accepted!

    augurey replied to augurey's topic in General Students

    It turns out I jumped the gun. The acceptance was the university only that doesn't not ensure admission to any specific programs. I'm trying to get in touch with someone to find out what I need to do...

  21. Who else is waiting for an Acceptance letter?

    augurey replied to nursingjourney's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I guess I got excited a little too early. While my application was for the ADN program, the actual letter arrived today which states it's acceptance to the university and doesn't ensure admission to...

  22. Trying to Apply

    augurey replied to student789's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would be careful about taking the actual TEAS test just to see how you'd do and what areas you need to improve on. I believe the ATI practice tests are about $80, but some schools only allow the...

  23. Test day ritual?

    augurey replied to LJR89's topic in General Students

    I would wear my "lucky" necklace (given to me the day my daughter was born) and my "lucky" socks (shamrock socks that I wore when I passed my TEAS). On the drive to school I'd listen to songs that...

  24. Who else is waiting for an Acceptance letter?

    augurey replied to nursingjourney's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm actually due a week and a half after my daughter's second birthday. This summer is much more brutal than the summer I was pregnant with her. I'm useless these days! I actually purposefully spent...

  25. Who else is waiting for an Acceptance letter?

    augurey replied to nursingjourney's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congrats GSPmom! That's hilarious about Walmart... I'd imagine trying to keep the enthusiasm down to a minimum to be quite difficult lol I'm currently waiting for mine. I applied to two schools. The...
