    Do you think titers are ok

    I chose not to get the Hep B vaccine for nursing school after I saw that my antibody level is high from my last vaccine. If your titers come out "equivocal" or close, I'd probably get a booster, but...

    Do you get taken seriously as a Chamberlain College Grad ?

    At my hospital, "pay to play" programs don't have a great reputation. However, I don't think they'd just throw your application out the window either. To give you some perspective, I was told that...

    Are We "Glorifying" Nurses?

    That's a bit of generalization. The critical care nurses and NPs that work at my hospital are wonderful
  4. If you plan on eventually attending med school, nursing is the most roundabout way to get there. Not really recommended. Go into nursing if you really really care about nursing, otherwise I

    Daytona State College Spring 2016

    Don't be too worried! The semester before me the lowest GPA accepted was a 3.08. Any chance you could take more courses to bump up your chances? Also, it is easier to get in for the spring semester...

    Hoping for encouragement

    I'm not a nurse yet, so just take this with a grain of salt. Nursing has a very high burnout rate, like a lot of healthcare professions. In reality, anyone can feel burnt out from their chosen...

    Nursing Pre-reqs

    Definitely depends on how competitive your program is. In most areas, a C in biology is a bad sign. If possible, I'd retake

    I have been accepted

    Congrats! I also have been accepted to start in August. Can't wait! I think the coloring books are a fun idea to help you refresh. I have also heard that reviewing your old A&P notes can be...

    PREREQUISITES

    Depending on what the pre-req is, I think they're called pre-requisites for a reason. Especially if it's A&P, you could be at a serious disadvantage if you start a nursing program without it. In...

    Daytona State College Spring 2016

    For the TEAS, I scored 81% overall, 90% in math, and 81% in reading. My GPA was 3.36. The lowest GPA they accepted was

    Negotiating schedule as student nurse

    I work as a medical scribe in the ER. During nursing school I will work overnights on the weekend and possible the end of the week too, depending on my schedule. If you could get a job in the ER, it's...

    Finanical Aid Advice?

    I have been able to cover most of my school costs with grants. I'm financially independent from my parents so I have been able to get a decent amount of money for school. My uniform/equipment has come...

    Advice on Nursing Specialities

    I would recommend shadowing a nurse practitioner to see what it's like, if that's possible for you. One of my closest friends is a CNM and ARNP. She absolutely loved delivering babies and found it to...

    I'm experiencing a "quarter-life" crisis...

    I work as an ER scribe and I also have just been accepted to a nursing school with a good reputation for this fall. A couple PCTs I work with are also nursing students, one from Keiser University and...

    Daytona State College Spring 2016

    I'm wishing you the best of luck! I was just accepted to start this August so feel free to contact me if you have any questions in the future about the program. I'm sure you'll get in too!

    Chamberlain college of Nursing

    I agree that it's not a great pass rate, but it's technically above 80%, which is the Florida standard if I'm not

    Chamberlain college of Nursing

    I know a couple people who are students at Chamberlain. Really any "pay to play" nursing school runs the risk of having a bad reputation to hiring managers. I have heard (regarding the Jacksonville,...
  19. At least around here, Keiser University does not have a great reputation. A lot of "pay to play" nursing programs don't. I recommend the

    Decisions Decisions

    Over here in North Florida, we have respiratory therapists, and they don't seem to be on their way out in this area. Best of luck with your future career

    failed nclex-rn x6

    I'm not an RN yet, just a student, but I have to say that I still find this a little concerning. I know this is not what you want to hear right now, but as far as I understand it (someone correct me...

    PreNursing at 30+

    As someone who is unmarried, has no kids, and is only working part-time during school, I'm no expert. I will say that it will probably be impossible for you to maintain the current lifestyle you're...

    PO Administration Route

    Hey girl, I know this is not related to the question you asked, but I would recommend not using a picture of yourself as your avatar and also not linking your FB page to your account here. Just my two...

    GPA help

    I really do believe that people can change and that there is often a story behind students who failed. If you want a second chance, your best best is community college. Take the classes you failed...

    Nursing in Jacksonville, Fl

    I work as a medical scribe in the ER at Flagler Hospital in St. Augustine and Baptist South in Jacksonville. I haven't heard any complaints about Baptist
