    Do you KNOW what nursing is?

    Totally understand. I like to think that the difficulty of nursing school/passing the NCLEX weeds some of those people out by the time they actually have to be employed as

    Not working during nursing school?

    I'm definitely not going to say that all people who choose not to work during nursing school are lazy because I don't know their situations, but I definitely know nursing students who know they could...

    Are We "Glorifying" Nurses?

    The entire article was based on the assumption that all nurses complain. There's not much journalistic integrity in

    Commuting to nursing school?

    I just got into an ADN program that is going to require me to drive over an hour 4 times per week. I haven't quite figured out yet what I'll do about the commute, but I might see if I can stay with a...

    Lucky he was constipated, or he'd be dead

    Crazy! We had a patient a few weeks ago who came into the ER with complaints of a shoulder injury who ended up having a
  6. Not a problem! I'm not at all saying that they don't have a good program (I have a couple buddies who go there for nursing school) but whether they do or don't deserve it, some hiring managers may not...
  7. If you are in that much debt, I wouldn't recommend Keiser University. Especially because (although they are accredited) they don't always have the best reputation, depending on where you

    need advice

    Congrats on getting into nursing school! I start my ADN program in August as well. I haven't taken Pharmacology yet, but I have taken Microbiology. Quizlet was immensely helpful. I used to to make my...

    Daytona State College Acceptance

    Every year the lowest GPA accepted depends on the applicant pool. So if there is a semester when there are some low GPA's, they will accept someone with a 2.5. However, they will always show priority...
  10. During the couple of months that I waited for my acceptance letter, I worked (ER scribe job, so getting that hospital experience), and besides that I relaxed. I know I won't have too much time for...

    Taking physio and 3 other classes in the same semester

    It depends on what else you have going on. For some people it is doable and for others it wouldn't be. Personally, I did A&P 2, Microbiology, Speech, Theatre Appreciation, and English together...

    California Vaccine Bill Eliminates Personal Exemption

    I know there's been a lot of resistance to this, but I think it's absolutely fantastic. And for those who are saying "They're forcing medical treatment", that's not true. This is just saying that if...

    30 years old and more impatient then ever!

    I completely understand. I just received my acceptance letter a few days ago and waiting for hear back from my school was agony! I don't really have much advice except to say that distracting myself...

    I think it's fantastic that you haven't given up yet. Looks like you're in the right track. And please please understand that you're still young. Some of the fellow applicants for the program I just...

    New nursing student! Any help is welcome

    If I were you, I would start applying for jobs immediately after passing the NCLEX. I'm also starting an ADN program and will be applying for jobs right after licensure. During that time, I'll also be...

    TEAS V, how to score a 60%

    Personally, I'm really not great at math. It's easily my weakest subject. However, I scored a 90% on the math section of the TEAS V. I didn't "work out" all of the math, I just used my common sense to...

    Score high on the TEAS EXAM

    Your best bet to see what the test is really like is to take the practice assessments that you can buy off of the ATI Testing website. If you have the ATI TEAS book, that's really great too. If you...

    I hope that you make it this time! If not, I'm glad that you're not giving up and that you're still going to try during the next application period. You can do

    4th Jokes

    Not really a punchline sort of joke, but I'm working the ER (as a medical scribe) overnight on the 4th, so I keep telling people if I don't see at least one redneck who's in there because he tried to...
  21. I was all about Quizlet. I made flashcards for every chapter and used the learning exercises on there to help me with the material. Hasn't let me down

    Microbiology is stressing me out

    It looks like you're already doing a lot to ensure you grasp the material. Personally, I aced Micro because of Quizlet. It helped me so much through Micro and

    ER Experience - I'm A Wee Bit Upset

    I'm really sorry about what happened to your brother. Honestly, I wouldn't be too worried about your potential as a nurse. Someone you love was in serious trouble and you reacted

    Advice please! Which classes to take?

    I took a theatre appreciation class online last semester. It involved essays, a lot of discussions, and a powerpoint presentation that we sent

    Older Nursing Students

    Go for it, you're still a spring chicken! There are a couple applicants to the program I got into who are at least 10 years older than you. I say, we should all spend our time doing what we
