  1. double major in biology

    direw0lf replied to direw0lf's topic in General Students

    Thank you for replying! It really helps to put it into perspective what I'll be getting myself into. I can get rid of the bio lit and physics next semester before my main nursing starts in the fall....

  2. Double major?

    direw0lf replied to direw0lf's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for the replies! I have to decide by tomorrow morning. Well technically I don't have to, but a physics class opened up and I'm next in line on the wait list but my time to decide will expire by...

  3. Double major?

    direw0lf replied to direw0lf's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you for your reply. The main reason why I want the double major is because I won't have enough credits to maintain full time status with just the classes I need for nursing and gen ed. I can't...

  4. Getting discouraged

    direw0lf replied to nechama22's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I know this was mentioned, but there are a lot of trade schools for CNA and PCT and in NJ I believe unemployment will pay for those schools *or* once you have worked at a nursing home facility (must...

  5. Will I be accepted to Nursing school?

    direw0lf replied to Arsilver13's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I know you are probably anxious! I was really nervous. I wasn't accepted the first go around. The 2nd time, I wrote a better essay and just studied harder, and got accepted. Even though the first time...

  6. which gen ed class should I take

    direw0lf posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I can choose between American Lit II online, U.S. History I, or stats. My other classes are Chemistry in every day life II and Genetics (requirements for a minor in bio) and Theology (university...

  7. Is it too late for me?

    direw0lf replied to happyinmyheart's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you really have a passion to do this over the summer, many nursing homes (at least the ones I know personally or from word of mouth) give you a couple weeks of training first. So you can feel...

  8. Why aren't I getting into my nursing program?

    direw0lf posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't understand where I'm going wrong, and the only answer I've gotten is that I did poorly on my SAT's. It's true I almost failed out of high school. But since then, I have gone to community...

  9. can I do it?

    direw0lf replied to manda90's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi I am proud to be in a school who really values their "nontraditional" students as well as so called traditional, and I learned a lot from these students. I think and hope you'll find that...

  10. Why aren't I getting into my nursing program?

    direw0lf replied to direw0lf's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have a surprising twist to share! (And certainly I erred - in my essay and not expanding my options - thanks for pointing these out!!) My teachers banded together and spoke up for me! I re-applied...

  11. Why aren't I getting into my nursing program?

    direw0lf replied to direw0lf's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I wondered if maybe this was why. Although I don't think it would be. But in my entry essay I wrote about how I come from an abusive childhood and why I want to be a nurse and from my experiences...

  12. Why aren't I getting into my nursing program?

    direw0lf replied to direw0lf's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you...I think I gave up on the phone too easily when the nursing department secretary told me that I can't see a nursing adviser until I'm accepted into the nursing program. I should have asked...

  13. Why aren't I getting into my nursing program?

    direw0lf replied to direw0lf's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This is the only university within a reasonable commute (about 45 mins to 1 hour drive). The community college in this area has an LPN program but not an RN...and the university doesn't have an LPN to...

  14. Why aren't I getting into my nursing program?

    direw0lf replied to direw0lf's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had no idea I could retake the SAT's after high school.....never even thought of that. Not a bad idea,
