  1. Failing Nursing School Over One Class?!!

    Britgirl1 posted a topic in General Students

    So I just finished my first semester of a 2-semester long Practical Nursing program. I got A's and B's in all of my classes (Even Pharm!) except for my one- my first clinical rotation. It is graded...

  2. I don't know if nursing is for me...pls help

    Britgirl1 replied to almag2010's topic in General Students

    You are welcome! :) It will all work out for the best, don't worry! If you don;t have a gut feeling, maybe just try and picture yourself as a nurse and see if it makes you happy. Also think about how...

  3. Nursing Textbooks

    Britgirl1 replied to Ludim's topic in General Students

    I used bigwords.com to buy my textbooks. You search each book you need by title or isbn and then add it to your "bookbag" and when you're done and ready to checkout it will search the entire internet...

  4. Help!!Does anyone know of BSN programs that will accept failed nursing school students

    Britgirl1 replied to Kenny Rogers's topic in General Students

    If you are currently attending a community college, I would directly contact other local/in-state community colleges and seeing if they accept transfer

  5. Is this crazy?

    Britgirl1 replied to Red Kryptonite's topic in LPN to RN

    Though it may be tough financially to afford to attend an accelerated BSN program, in the end you would end up making more as a BSN--RN than you would as an AAS-RN. It would also allow you more...

    Britgirl1 replied to almag2010's topic in General Students

    Hey! I am in the exact same situation except for I failed clinicals in my first semester instead of second. In my program (a 2-semester LPN program) you get unadmitted for failing even one class and...

    Britgirl1 replied to Britgirl1's topic in General Students

    PA-_RN87, before I was in nursing I was actually majoring in Molecular Biology and did just fine. I do pretty well academically, the only thing I struggled in with nursing was the clinicals. Maybe...

    Britgirl1 replied to Britgirl1's topic in General Students

    So be it. I've decided what I am going to do. And I didn't include many details on purpose, because I'm not going to do that with a bunch of strangers. Take Care,

  9. Failing Nursing School Over One Class?!!

    Britgirl1 replied to Britgirl1's topic in General Students

    I really don't think it's for me. I was unhappy before the whole clinical situation went down which is why I think I chose to skip those clinical days. I am totally happy with my decision, and getting...

  10. Failing Nursing School Over One Class?!!

    Britgirl1 replied to Britgirl1's topic in General Students

    It's just an idea at this point, but I definitely agree with you lol. I may get a degree in a hard science or something I know I can get employed with, and then if I decide to do so I could go back to...

  11. Failing Nursing School Over One Class?!!

    Britgirl1 replied to Britgirl1's topic in General Students

    You make a good point. I am going to pursue the rest of my bachelors degree in something else, probably psych so I can get my master's. The whole thing is that I do know that I chose to fail my...

  12. Failing Nursing School Over One Class?!!

    Britgirl1 replied to Britgirl1's topic in General Students

    I was just referring to the answers I am getting on this post. They all seem to be very judgemental and in compassionate. I am looking for help, not hate. I have spoken to my dean, I do understand my...

  13. Failing Nursing School Over One Class?!!

    Britgirl1 replied to Britgirl1's topic in General Students

    I know it seems like I may have chosen to fail my clinicals, but a lot more happened behind the scenes that I did not put in summary of the situation above. It has a lot more to do with the way I was...

    Britgirl1 posted a topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    So I'm about to start a 1-year long program to become an LPN. If I hopefully survive that and pass my NCLEX, I want to do the LPN to RN at the same school while working as an LPN. So,, I was...

    Britgirl1 posted a topic in General Students

    I am starting an LPN program at my local community college next week. The prereqs I had to take to be considered for this program were clinical calculations, nutrition, developmental psych, and...

  16. NEED ADVICE! Which position should I accept?

    Britgirl1 replied to kelly22790's topic in First Year After Licensure

    The Ortho floor job sounds best! It has a combination of several specialties as well as high-stress situations. In the future when you eventually try to get a job in Pediatrics (which combines many...

  17. Taking A&P 2, micro and, intro to Chem in one semester

    Britgirl1 replied to Mayahajj's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Depending on your dedication and how busy you are it could be do-able. However, my advice to you is not to do it. Both A&P 2 and Chem are very difficult classes and your stress levels would be...

    Britgirl1 replied to WanderingWilder's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  19. What are the odds? LPN Admissions

    Britgirl1 replied to lovelyb26's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
