  1. Didn't make it.

    Jessies_hope posted a topic in School, College Programs

    Why is it so hard to get into nursing school? Let me please ask that you not make mean comments here, I'm already heartbroken. But I seriously don't understand why it's so, so hard to just get IN to...

  2. Didn't make it.

    Jessies_hope replied to Jessies_hope's topic in School, College Programs

    I appreciate all of the responses. I am not letting this one program stop me - and I am grateful for the sharing of your stories. It was a hard hit to take. And when I wrote the post, I was hurting,...

  3. Didn't make it.

    Jessies_hope replied to Jessies_hope's topic in School, College Programs

    I can appreciate your comments but as I said in my op - I am NOT saying I want it more than others. I am not "judging" anyone, and I certainly don't have an "attitude" as others suggested toward...

  4. Platt College in CO

    Jessies_hope posted a topic in General Students

    A lot of the threads about Platt College in Aurora, Co are several years old. I am considering going there in the fall and I'd like to know a couple of things. 1) Do they generally accept most...

    Jessies_hope posted a topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I watched the tele monitors as my patient who was on comfort care went asystole and then was asked to help provide post mortem care. She was still warm and I kept thinking she was going to wake up or...

  6. Freaking myself out

    Jessies_hope posted a topic in School, College Programs

    It's time to get serious about my application to nursing school. Okay, I've been serious about it, but it's time to start really putting things in order. The last official prerequisite that I need is...

  7. Arapahoe Community college fall 2015

    Jessies_hope replied to EmergencyDee's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Thank you for the words of encouragement! I think the number of people who get in is what intimidates me the most but I feel like I have a lot of things going for me. I'm glad to hear that you like...

  8. Arapahoe Community college fall 2015

    Jessies_hope replied to EmergencyDee's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Was it hard to get in to ACC? I recently heard that of the 79 people that applied for fall 2015 only 35 were accepted and I'm starting to wonder if I need to make a back up plan. I have a good GPA,...

  10. NOT.HAPPY.

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

    What a great opportunity for you! I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. I suppose I need to simmer down and enjoy life while I

  11. NOT.HAPPY.

    Jessies_hope posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was supposed to start a microbiology class today at a certain school. I went to pay for the class before it started and they hadn't added it for me yet. As annoying as that was, we got it sorted and...

  12. NOT.HAPPY.

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

    I do schedule all my own prereqs, I am also attending two schools concurrently. I didn't wait till the last minute, when I found out having micro was "highly recommended" (it's not required to apply,...

  13. I already miss you, WGU!

    Jessies_hope replied to TheCommuter's topic in Western Governors University

    I posted earlier about looking for an online micro class and came across WGU. I don't understand their prenursing RN/BSN. Is the program really all it's cracked up to be? I think what confused me was...

  14. B's in the non-sciences (retake?)

    Jessies_hope replied to JJBird's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congrats on deciding to get your RN! I'm in a similar boat, where my biology was too old to count. (Which makes no sense to me...) I did find a workaround for that, which required me to attend two...

  15. Freaking myself out

    Jessies_hope replied to Jessies_hope's topic in School, College Programs

    Wow, thank you both for your words of encouragement and resources! It's nice to have a vote of confidence from you! I am going to start studying very soon. I figure I'm about 3 months out from...

  16. Will an EKG course be worth it?

    Jessies_hope replied to Mommyfuturenurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took an EKG course while I was waiting to start my CNA course. It was a 1 day class, and it was free. But here's the best part...I accepted a teletech job at a hospital in my area, and I will be...

  17. Should I be afraid?

    Jessies_hope posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I recently made the decision to jump (back) into the medical world and have been taking classes at a community college to get ADN prereqs out of the way. I am a full time accountant and going the CC...

  18. Should I be afraid?

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

    I can't like this post enough! It's good to know that I'm not the only one who made such a dramatic decision. I am fortunate to have a family that supports me and when things get hard I remind them in...

    Jessies_hope replied to hwngrl's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Hwngrl, did you end up taking one of the jobs you posted about? If so, which one? I interviewed at Castle Rock and I am really, really hoping I get the

  20. Anyone taken UoP online A&P

    Jessies_hope replied to Unistic's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Did you end up taking these classes? I am about to pay for the first one and was looking for feedback on this site but haven't come across any. I have the same questions as you do, which is what was...

    Jessies_hope replied to EmergencyDee's topic in Colorado Nursing

    I wish I could say I was...I have one prereq left, which seems easy enough, except it has a prereq of its own. I'm likely not starting until fall 2016. I'm considering other options because I'm ready...

    Jessies_hope replied to RonaldLS's topic in School, College Programs

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

    I'm feeling really hopeful but I don't want to get my hopes up too high..here's the deal: after reading this site I learned the different jobs available for pre-nursing students and learned what a...

  24. What I do for fun and to stay motivated

    Jessies_hope posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Prereqs are hard. Ok, not necessarily hard as in difficult, they are a pain. You can't take this until you take that, which usually = a semester setback. That one semester set back might set back your...

    Jessies_hope replied to DeeDee2014's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I also plan on taking CNA classes this summer and I registered for 2 online classes on top. I was wondering the same thing. I'm hoping the two other classes are fairly easy, I didn't go for biology or...
