    SkanauxRN2009 replied to Katydidit34's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  2. Are your fellow classmates really serious about nursing?

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to jaysma's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I give you a high five. If you read enough of these posts, it is like your in high school or something. I am also an A student, but I would never cut down anyone who is not making these grades. It...

  3. Is it possible....??

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to Carebear77's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That is funny about the guitar class. If you took because it sounded good, then more power to you. Lol. Guitar playing nurse is funny. I am taking 14 credits this semester, but may take more next...

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to Katydidit34's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Your quote says your waiting for your letter, does that mean you found out already if you got in? or you don't know yet? I will keep my fingers crossed for you.

  5. Should I make a three hour drive?

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to Lisa CCU RN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Speaking from experience, I left a CC that was very close to home. I transferred to a University, the closest one to me at that, and it is still a 50 minute drive in rush hour traffic. I absolutely...

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to dtw2mom's topic in Michigan Nursing

  7. When applying to nursing schools...Do your reasearch

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to NurseBunky's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    From what I have found in my research, a lot of nursing schools are kind of secret about certain aspects of their programs. Some of them will tell you what they want you to hear, not always the truth...

  8. which is better? 2 or 4 year RN for SE MI

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to dtw2mom's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Just wanted to correct you. There is not a waiting list at Eastern or U of M. Don't know who told you that, but it is not true. As for GPA, most nursing schools are expecting you keep your GPA at...

  9. which is better? 2 or 4 year RN for SE MI

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to dtw2mom's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I attend the University in Ypsilanti. There is no waitlist as a previous poster replied in this forum. U of M does not have a wait list either. I think that is basically a CC thing. You are...

  10. Nursing School entry throughout the states

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to SkanauxRN2009's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  11. Nursing School entry throughout the states

    SkanauxRN2009 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was just curious if other colleges were dealing with high amounts of pre nursing students trying to get accepted in the nursing program. I have gone to two schools now, have not yet applied, but...

  12. do most hospitals only hire student nurses for PCt's?

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to Lisa CCU RN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It depends on what state you are in I guess. PCA is a fancy word for nurse aide. I worked as one for many years without a certification from the state. They do have CNA's here, but they work in...

  13. Are your fellow classmates really serious about nursing?

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to jaysma's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with you and Marie. The fact that these people are attending classes is a good thing. Some people don't even make it that far. School is not a priority to everyone. At least they are...

  14. Nursing School entry throughout the states

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to SkanauxRN2009's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to SkanauxRN2009's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well much luck and success to you on your entry in to your school's program. I did walk in to the nursing department to see if they had any kind of mentor program, and they looked at me, like I was...

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to micster's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    \ I am a student at EMU. Where did you get your information on their failure of good pass rates? Have you known anyone who has applied to their nursing program? Just wondering. They also have a MSN...

  17. Who all is applying this semester for Fall 2006?

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to marilynmom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I may put my app in at some other schools, but there are only a few I am willing to go to. I am at a University and just hoping all goes well there with the nursing program. The CC's seems to have...

  18. How long is your LPN or RN program?

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to TashaLPN2006RN2012's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't mean to sound funny, but is there a market for LPN's anymore? I know in my area, they are requesting RN's and some hospital's even say BSN preferred. The shortage of nurses is critical, so I...

  19. what do do if you get a C....

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to FNPhopeful's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to studentnurse3's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  24. ***Chemistry - Fall 2005***

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to Princess74's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well it is getting a littel easier to figure out now. We break things down by their group and then give them the full name of the compound. So these have been Isomers. I am glad I do not have to...

  25. Researching Native American.......

    SkanauxRN2009 replied to ChristinaV's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I once was interested in working on the Pine Ridge Rez, my husband said no. He said it was bad out that way, with poverty. Casino's have made the rez's here in Michigan wealthy. Some do better than...
