  1. Grades are in... What did you ge???

    ctaylar replied to Nurse2bCerebellum's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    General Biology 1 and lab, College Algebra, English 1020, all A's. I'm worried that A&P next semester will ruin my 4.0 GPA, summer to

  2. Going Back at 40 years old...

    ctaylar replied to kjkolesar's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I wanted to thank everyone for sharing their journeys, it is really inspirational and a big motivation. I had been feeling really down that an ADN was going to take me 4 years, and I would be 31...

  3. pre-reqs

    ctaylar replied to julzgarcia's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've done two semesters of pre-reqs, and they have just removed the gen bio 1 and 2 pre-req for A&P, so I've done a whole year of college for nothing, and still have two semesters to go now. I'm...

  4. Prerequisites - How long do they take?

    ctaylar replied to AspiringNurseNY's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Also, others have mentioned, but required pre-req classes, registering for them is often like the Hunger Games. I literally went to a Starbucks to have secure internet, to refresh over and over, and...

  5. Prerequisites - How long do they take?

    ctaylar replied to AspiringNurseNY's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was on a two-year course for my pre-requisites due to the sequence required. Had to have Gen Bio 1 and Gen Bio 2 before taking A&P, eligible for College Algebra before you can take Gen Bio 1,...

  6. ACT vs TEAS vs Gen Bio 2

    ctaylar posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I will try and make this as concise as possible. I have just finished my first semester of pre-reqs, knocking out 3 of 5 required. My problem comes with A&P/biologies. The school I am attending...

  7. Grades are in! How did you do?

    ctaylar replied to UCFAshley's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There are 5 pre-reqs for the nursing program at our local CC. Three out of the five classes I took this semester were pre-reqs, Psych 101 (A), English 101 (A), History/Humanities (A). I still have...

  8. Intermediate Algebra Vs College Algebra

    ctaylar posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Those who have taken both, is college algebra significantly harder than intermediate? I am a few weeks from the end of my first pre-req semester, and I have a 97% so far in intermediate algebra, but I...

  9. Working, school, and kids...starting prerequisites! Anyone else?!

    ctaylar replied to RBancroft's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't work, but I am going to school full time and I have three kids. I just wanted to say, I have been a stay-at-home parent for 7 years, and I felt like my brain had turned into mush. I literally...

  10. Intermediate Algebra Vs College Algebra

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

    My basic math is pretty sound. I've tried to develop positive thinking thinking when it comes to algebra. The next section I have is evaluating rational expressions and it made my eyes cross. I will...

  11. Monster of Pre-Requisites

    ctaylar posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Is it OK to be frustrated that it will take me 4 semesters just to work through pre-requisites? I finally signed up to community college this fall. I'm a foreign student so I've never taken ACT's or...

  12. GoFundMe Thoughts?

    ctaylar replied to singwithme123's topic in General Nursing

    I have donated to a couple, all were for infant loss. I think some of them are for great causes, but some just aren't. I have $25,000 in medical bills from several surgeries I have had. A friends dog...

  13. Monster of Pre-Requisites

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

    I think what bothers me the most is what if I work hard for two years, and don't even get into the nursing program? It's a new nursing program at the college, just starting its second year. I have no...

  14. Can I Become a Registered Nurse While Being TERRIBLE At Math?

    ctaylar replied to HarleyQuinn's topic in General Students

    Math has been the reason I have avoided nursing. I would always say I suck at maths, but it's not completely true. I'm great at pre-algebra, scoring 90+%. I did a nurse math practice quiz, and got...

  15. pre-reqs

    ctaylar replied to julzgarcia's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It will take me two years, but I have to do Gen Bio 1 and 2 before I can do A&P. By the time I apply to nursing school, I will only have to do the core nursing

  16. Monster of Pre-Requisites

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

    I honestly feel so much better now, thank you everyone for sharing. It's been so long since I have legally been able to do anything, so I think I am just anxious to help support my

  17. Monster of Pre-Requisites

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

    Thank you, I'm open to all potential resources! I'm on point with all pre-algebra. I did a nurse med-math quiz last week to see what it involved and got 90%. It's just algebra makes my eyes

  18. Monster of Pre-Requisites

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

    I'm 27 and have 3 kids. This has been a dream of mine for a long time, and I finally got my Green Card at the beginning of the year. I was looking at a bridge program to BSN also, to get class ideas....

  19. Monster of Pre-Requisites

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

    I have Algebraic Foundation, Gen Biology 1, Gen Biology 2, A&P 1, College Algebra, English 101, Intro to Psych and a Humanities before I can apply to the nursing program. I think I'm grumpy that...

  20. Monster of Pre-Requisites

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

    OK, thank you. It's good to know this is pretty much normal. My ignorance is showing in that I heard 2 years of nursing school, and thought 2 years. Then I found out about pre-requisites, which the...
