1. Coworker physically abusive to patients

   ac9390 replied to Depressed_RN's topic in Relations

   I am not a nurse. I'm not even a nursing student; all I've completed are my prereqs and I'm waiting for my answer to come in three weeks. I know jack about being a nurse or working in that kind of environment. I do have experience like this from an...

2. BRCC NURSING 2016

   ac9390 replied to Nervousme504's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I hope they mail them out during the first week of June this year instead of the second or third. I'm beyond tired of waiting. Still waiting to see what my two science grades are before I go into the final.

   ac9390 replied to Nervousme504's topic in Pre-Nursing

   The wait sucks. I'm going to be working as much as I can over the summer to get my mind off of it.

   Has anyone else taken their HESI yet? I took mine this morning and made a 96.4%. Now it's the 3-month waiting game to find out if we made it in or not :-/

5. Favorite ways to study for A&P and biology

   ac9390 replied to amber0627's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I just passed a biology course in which a good handful of us dropped the class and the majority either passed with barely a C or didn't pass. I made an A. Their biggest mistake was trying to memorize words, in the same way you would for a history cla...

   I'm so glad you told me. I double checked with a nursing director last night and sure enough, I can apply to the school this January. Pretty sweet!

7. BRCC NURSING 2016

   ac9390 replied to Nervousme504's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I unfortunately won't be able to apply to the school until 2017 because I'm taking my a&p 1 this semester. I'm taking micro too, maybe we'll be in the same class. I won't publicly disclose the prof's name but she's a highly ranked female teache...

   I've heard there's going to be a reading section, grammar/vocab, a math and a biology section

   And yes, I hope we all make it! Which classes are you taking this Spring?

10. BRCC NURSING 2016

    ac9390 replied to Nervousme504's topic in Pre-Nursing

    For this semester I took 6 classes and ended up with a 3.7. Not sure what that comes out to when combined with last semester's GPA of 3.5. When grades go into LOLA some time this week it will figure everything in and I'll have a better idea. I've ...

11. What classes did you take with A&P?

    ac9390 replied to kayclarke's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Next semester I'll be taking A&P I, Micro, intro to phil and a history. It's totally do-able, and I suspect that the two sciences together will be supplemental. I took a bio and a chem with labs last semester along with 2 other courses and they...

    ac9390 replied to Nervousme504's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I may. I was told you can only take the HESI in March every year but I won't have my A&P 1 out the way yet. I might take it anyway. Wouldn't hurt. Other than that I will be able to apply after this spring semester.

13. Bad old transcripts from music school

    ac9390 posted a topic in School Programs

    I know this topic has been talked about to death but most of what I read involves people messing up their pre-nursing classes the first time around. My situation is a little different and I wanted to get y'alls two cents. In 2011 I went fresh out ...

14. Are they doing away with the ASN programs?

    ac9390 replied to ac9390's topic in Pre-Nursing

    It doesn't matter when I'd be graduating. Its the fact that I'll be graduating as a nurse at all that I care about. And even if I graduate with an associate's and just cannot find work anywhere, that's okay too--that's why I got my DA certification--...

15. Are they doing away with the ASN programs?

    ac9390 replied to ac9390's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I know for a fact that here in Louisiana, the DNP rule will be implemented in 2015. My friend will be graduating with an MSN in December. I'm not sure if the classes directly behind his will be grandfathered it, but that only sounds fair! I sure h...
