  1. Community Colleges vs. Major Universities

    I say go the BSN route. You will probably have better opportunities in the long run, resources and experience then at a CC. A lot of people say that BSN and ADN are not differentiated...Maybe not in pay, but most hospitals in NY do consider BSN ahead...

  4. Did You Guys Pay Too Much Tuition Too?

    I attend State University at New York of Buffalo and tuition is 2375 a semester, but with fees and on campus housing and all, it comes out to about 15,000 a year. I think that is fair enough.
  5. Bombing A Final

    Actually it happened to me last year, but the class was Freshman Composition. I was the top writer in my class, yet I was the only one who bombed the final. My professor told me he was shocked and couldn't believe it. I think I panicked during the ...
  6. I think that is what separates the BSN and the ADN. I don't think it is all about clinicals. I think nursing is a PROFESSION with different aspects to it. Like medicine, it is more than learning about your patients, but it is also about learning abou...

  11. What do nursing schools look for?

    Do nursing schools look at the entire package, or do they look only at prerequisites for nursing and determine the strongest for their program in that regards?I plan to focus on English at my new school before I apply for Nursing, and I also had a...
  12. Semester is over, how did you do?

    Wow, that is shocking!! No offense, but I am stunned that a teacher would just hand out grades like that. I think the best teachers are the ones who hand out fair grades and is reasonable in doing it. My literature professor adored me, but he would ...

  16. Am I making the wrong decision?

    Hey, I need the opinion of people who are pre-nursing students wanting to be nursing students. At my current school,I am in a nursing program where I'll start in the fall.But I am not happy with the school. Therefore, I am transferring to another ...
  17. Taking care of ourselves

  20. Should I worry that I received a C in Anatomy?

    I think it depends. To get into a competitive BSN program. A C may be okay in some instance it may not be. For someone like me who want a Master Degree, I know a C won't cut it. So A's and B+'s is what I strive for.

  22. Ok, whats the secret 4.0 students???

    I agree with this. I think the classes and work load is what matters and ultimately your GPA. If you are taking only Chemistry and English and getting a 4.0, I don't see that as overly impressive over someone who's taking Chemistry,English,A&P,an...
