    J-9TylerTexas replied to IvoryLena's topic in General Students

    Thanks! I bookmarked for future use ~grins~ not in nursing school yet but I'm enjoying collecting as much info as possible!

  2. Are your fellow classmates really serious about nursing?

    J-9TylerTexas replied to jaysma's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hehe, well, we hear ya, but, you gotta have high GPAs to get INTO nursing school in the first place due to the competition of the programs. That means getting A's when possible. When the GPA to get...

  3. A&P during summer session

    J-9TylerTexas posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hiyah The summer sessions are 8 weeks long, and I can devote all the time needed daily for the most part (I'm a stay at home mom). I have a 4 year old and a 13 year old, but I also have a husband...

  4. How do you develop a thick skin?

    J-9TylerTexas replied to belabelisa's topic in General Students

    Haha, lemme preface this by saying I'm not *abused* but... my husband yells and complains like a grumpy old son of a gun. That and I moved from up north to the Wild West in '99 I feel like I've been...

  5. Taking A&P I and II at separate schools?

    J-9TylerTexas replied to rhp123's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hrm. I don't know specifically about the accelerated programs, but I think the problem you'd run into is making sure that the same things covered in your A&P 1 are equivalent to another...

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

    J-9TylerTexas replied to NurseBunky's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Oohh *nods* thing is... I tried to research local programs or the colleges in general and I could not find anywhere that published any sort of ranking or statistics. I just wanted to ensure that...

  7. Net testing

    J-9TylerTexas replied to lee99's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I actually got the study guide for this yesterday. My CC had the book in their bookstore, had to ask the girl to find it for me because it's this wee lil book. Otherwise here is the website if you'd...

  8. Are your fellow classmates really serious about nursing?

    J-9TylerTexas replied to jaysma's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hmm... I'm definitely going into nursing for the money! Shoot, if I didn't want more money for my family I'd sit home and watch TV all day instead. However, healthcare, medicine, nursing in...

  9. Human Growth and Development Course

    J-9TylerTexas replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Doing well in this class and took the second test today, but, I gotta get some of these papers due outta the way. I need to do 3 papers for Pysch, 3 for Human Growth and Dev, 1 for Govt, and research...

  10. Is it possible....??

    J-9TylerTexas replied to Carebear77's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Totally depends on what else you have going in life, work? other commitments etc? It's so dependant on what you think you can do. They say figure roughly three hours study time per hour of class...

  11. UT Tyler - Longview Extension

    J-9TylerTexas replied to Dawdett's topic in Texas Nursing

    Oh, btw, I had actually written to the nursing school advisor for UT Tyler last week and asked what the minimum GPA was for applicants most often accepted, she said 3.4 and that competition was...

  12. UT Tyler - Longview Extension

    J-9TylerTexas replied to Dawdett's topic in Texas Nursing

    Amber, I've lived all over the country, originally from Pennsylvania. I even lived in Arizona (Phoenix) for several years. I suppose it really depends on what you are used to, but overall I've...

  13. Are your fellow classmates really serious about nursing?

    J-9TylerTexas replied to jaysma's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hiyah, I know exactly what you guys mean, but I have a feeling what I'm seeing is just kids basically not sure what they want to do with life. They may drift off for awhile then come back and be...

  14. Waste of Talent

    J-9TylerTexas replied to ksadler97's topic in Texas Nursing

    Some areas must be hurting 'cause there's an ad in our local paper that they are paying $32.00 an hour for RNs.. and I see constant ads such as that.

  15. When should I apply to nursing school?

    J-9TylerTexas replied to mythreekids's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hiyah :) I'm in the same situation, 32, SAHM for 9yrs, pre-school age child (and a 12 year old baby too!) My 4 year old is actually going to be attending kindergarten next year so it coincides with...

  16. WHAT DO YOU THINK? (Opinions wanted)

    J-9TylerTexas replied to RosesrReder's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    ooh :S My question would be what exactly does the NLN test? Does it test on knowledge gathered over the course of the pre-nursing courses? Or is it simply a skills/aptitude test? I'm ready for any...

    J-9TylerTexas replied to AtlantaRN's topic in General Students

    Hiyah, I think the best thing you did for him was shut off the DSL. I don't think it had much to do with nursing school at all! This'll sound weird but coming from an adult gamer, gaming is like...
