  1. Hi, I think I'm stuck with nursing, since I spent 3 years doing pre-requisites for it. I have about a 3.8 and currently at a CSU. I've thought of possible alternatives, but none work without years and...
  2. Hi, What are the easiest/fastest ADN programs to get into in California? I'm still interested in BSN, MEPN, ABSN ect programs, however, the RN to BSN is another route available. My local community...
  3. Nurses have an attitude problem. They are catty, cliquey, think they know-it-all, don't care at all what you think (what they say is always right and final), dislike outsiders, newcomers and change,...
  4. NEVER Disclose. It's NONE of their business, and don't make it their business. Anytime people hear involuntary hospitalization they think "danger to self or others" and/or "gravely disabled." People...
  5. Chem Is Not My Favorite

    I didn't like chemistry either, took general chem for science majors, and also got a B... you can still get into programs with that, and for many/most, don't need more chemistry. Organic and biochem...
  6. Can I still be an RN if I was in a Mental Hospital?

    Tell NO one. People can complain or report to the BON and it could cause disciplinary action or a required diversion/monitoring program. That could affect your job. In California: Board of Registered...
  7. Job Hopper, concerned

    I always try to at least do something for 1 year minimum. If I want to do something else or move "up," then I do... Looking at this, 1 year is not very long, but it's also just long enough for a...
  8. HESI math

    What do you mean? I remember I took the HESI on the computer at a test proctoring site at my university. It wasn't on paper. I think most of the answers are selected through multiple choice, but it...
  9. HESI math

    My highest score on the HESI was in math and was 94%. I took it Dec '13. I don't think I studied for it... it seemed easier than the TEAS test and I scored slightly higher (I think 84% cumulative)....
  10. Butte College RN Program

    I probably will consider applying to Butte's LVN program along with getting on their Butte lottery/waitlist. It typically takes 6 semesters to get into the RN program, and I really should have been on...
  11. Pre-nursing job at a hospital

    I can only think of hospital volunteering... or jobs which will not likely count to improving your chances of being admitted to RN
  12. Nursing with ocd

    Don't EVER disclose that you were diagnosed with Anything. It can be a life-long death sentence legally, socially, career-wise, and so many other ways. =[ Also, you don't have to agree with what is...
  13. I need help. =(

    That's good that it is easier. I hope it keeps going well!
  14. I assumed she had talked to him before bc she said "over the year I fell for a medical student"... if she hadn't ever talked to him, just saw him, and messaged, this wouldn't be a good thing and could...
  15. LOL.. I wouldn't say finding a person on fb and msging them is stalkerish... Otherwise.. I guess I've done it a TON of times! But yeah, as George said, it could be going to the "other" box bc if you...
  16. Able To Work Business Hours?

    I didn't know you had car and student loans... but I think student loans can get deferred when you re-enter school? Or am I wrong? There are many federal school loans... I think there's Stafford,...
  17. Students who get As are bad bedside nurses

    Where are these areas? It usually doesn't apply to California public colleges. I'm not surprised by ADNs from O-O-S, but hearing that of state (BSN) programs is surprising. I guess you could get lower...
  18. I need help. =(

    Haha! I was close to where you were from my guess... got the same state and border correct! Know bc I've been over there before... it is different from Cali. From what has been said, it seems like...
  19. Able To Work Business Hours?

    Where? What program was that? Maybe the OP can either take out living loans and/or shorten their work schedule to part-time. Or the OP could re-apply to a program like yours.. which was what? OP might...
  20. Need some help deciding on which route to take...

    It depends on your state and location for which program would be easier. Ask your state/region's RN programs about typical accepted applicant data and also decide if it is faster or easier for...
  21. Able To Work Business Hours?

    Can you take out loans for the living costs and also use grants? I don't know of any night nursing schools...
  22. Teas test?

    50th percentile means you score higher than 50% of the people who take the TEAS test. I.e, you need to score higher than the average (mean) score of TEAS test-takers. From what I've read: The...
  23. bad gpa what should I do

    If the schools are more competitive in Denver (I don't know about Colorado RN programs), then you probably should apply to the RN programs nearer to you. I don't think a 2.5 will get you into a purely...
  24. HELP! failed pre-reqs

    Hmm re-take at another college and/or apply to wait-lists with lower minimum grades, like a 2.0 or 2.5. I don't think you can get into a merit-based program (or hybrid) with a 2.78... I have a hard...
  25. Important Grades?

    I might be applying to that ADN program too :) It's on my loooong ADN list lol. I'm chipping away at the list, applying to all the colleges on it which I already qualify for based off completed...
