    straight out of highschool and lost

    If your pre-reqs are transferrable (unfortunately, not all of mine were and my current school views about 16 of my previous credits as electives), you should be able to finish your BSN in 4 years,...

    RN vs RN/BSN? Help!

    Where I'm from (Ohio), hospitals are starting to not hire RNs with associate's. Not sure how it is where you are, but if financial aid covers it, definitely go for the BSN. BSN seems the best in the...

    Becoming a CNA before starting school.

    I don't really want to become a CNA, purely because of what I have researched and heard. Although my current job has almost absolutely nothing to do with nursing, I feel like having a job before going...

    Help, Should I move?

    transferology.com; best website to find out if credits are
  5. It sounds like the school is looking for GPA more than anything, which kind of sucks because with holistic schools, even if your gpa isn't the best, they still base you off other things. I wouldn't...

    Doula Certification/Wanting to be a Midwife

    Thank you for the reply! How were you able to get the chance to work at a birthing center? I've been emailing around, even to just shadow but I've gotten no responses or reject

    Striving to do Better

    Thank you for the response, I am taking more courses at my community college; really just math courses though, because I know their pace would suit me a lot better than OSU's So far I have taken 29...

    Good Nursing Apps

    Does anyone have a list of must have apps for pre nursing/BSN students? Particularly for iPhone. Also, what would you say is the best medical terminology

    Nurse, Microbiologist, or Surgeon?

    You seem to be more passionate and leaning toward the scientific route. Nurses don't take nearly as many science courses as microbiologists or surgeons. Just weigh your options out a little more...

    VENT SESSION

    You guys, I'm so glad you are all pursuing your dreams despite some boundaries. I always tell people, having a child shouldn't hold you back, it should motivate you to want to do better for the sake...

    I am Humiliated

    I think that you making a new and improved resume shows that you are willing to improve and show growth. If they realize you sent in a bad resume before they might appreciate how you are willing to...

    Striving to do Better

    Yeah, I've looked into retaking but my school does not replace classes even if you do better in them, they only allow freshmen to do that

    Need your opinion/thoughts

    I agree with money of the posters above. 32K for an ADN is not worth it at all. The public school gas money sounds cringe worthy but it's still cheaper than going private and an ADN is an ADN no...

    Offensive?

    I don't think you should take it personal. Old people say the darnedest things. But yeah, I agree with that if you're anything but white, she may have purposely said that, and I can see why you would...

    Oh yeah, I neglected to say that Mount Carmel requires a 3.0 for second degree

    Books

    Amazon is probably the best website to buy new or used textbooks, I've found $200 textbooks on there for almost, if not, half off, and what's a little wear and tear? If you have an Apple device such...

    LPN or RN??

    If I were you, I would go for RN. You can still go at your own pace, such as taking part time classes if you still want to juggle your family life. As long as there is no rush, the outcome will be...

    Opinions on my education plan

    So I have decided to major in Human Development and Family Science with a specialization in pre med at OSU, as well as a minor in Cognitive Science. My ultimate plan is to be a midwife, but I want to...
  22. There are local STNA classes where I am from and the classes are $500 max...Going to school and paying actual tuition just to become an STNA/CNA is pointless, but if an organization offers the $500...
  23. mindofmidwifery

    HELP!!

    If you're still dipping into the idea, you should get your STNA/CNA first. If you are still into the idea of nursing and plan to stick with it the rest of your career, you should look into a second...

    Opinions on my education plan

    That is what I've been leaning more toward. In that case, if I do cut out the PA step, how useful do you think having a pre-med specialization would be? Not in terms of getting into a master's...
