  1. Online BSN

    UnicornMagic replied to Heatherbergy's topic in General Students

    ^^ What she said. You will need to do clinical hours at a hospital. For level 1, my school requires (2) eight hour days per week. In level 2, we have (2) eight hour days per week, and (four) 12 hour...

  2. Need help making a decision RN VS BSN

    UnicornMagic replied to rfutrell's topic in General Students

    Actually, many are. Just search grading scale” on the forums here. There are a ton of threads on this topic. Getting an A in nursing school is possible, though very difficult. If you put the...

  6. A&P 2 Harder than A&P 1?

    UnicornMagic replied to missnursingstudent19's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    AP2 is going to be harder. AP1 is memorizing body parts. AP2 is learning HOW and WHY they work together, as well as memorizing

  7. How to get textbooks

    UnicornMagic replied to oldsockventriloquist's topic in General Students

    I buy most of my books and access codes on Amazon. My school book store just started price matching Amazon this semester, which was nice. I was then able to use my financial aid to pay for them vs...

  8. Financing without grants

    UnicornMagic replied to nutmeg2356's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    City Colleges of Chicago only require 5 prereq classes, and have a much, much lower tuition rate. I would pick a Community College over a for-profit school any day. Taking $60k for nursing would not...

  9. Should I get the second AA degree???

    UnicornMagic replied to hellfirecat's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just do it. As said before, it may help you with your BSN. I am currently in Costa Rica taking Medical Spanish and Spanish 2, as it will get me an AA, and also satisfy the last of my prereqs needed...

  10. Intro to A&P before A&P1?

    UnicornMagic replied to ashleyp453's topic in General Students

    I wouldn't bother with that. If you don't have prior medical experience, I would recommend taking Medical Terminology beforehand, or concurrently. A&P isn't bad. It is just a ton of

    UnicornMagic replied to xginee23's topic in School, College Programs

    I am not attending a private college. I could not risk paying 3x what a regular school would cost, in order to save some time. Read reviews everywhere you can...

    UnicornMagic replied to christina4316's topic in Florida Nursing

    Does anyone still need uniforms? I have 6 pair of small navy blue scrubs, 2 polos, and 2 scrub tops (all medium) that I would like to either sell for cheap, or trade for

  13. Galen Tampa Fl July 2016

    UnicornMagic replied to xginee23's topic in School, College Programs

    I relocated from Boston to attend Galen, without having attended any information sessions. Big mistake. Please please please make sure you have a list of questions to ask these people when you come...

    UnicornMagic replied to christina4316's topic in Florida Nursing

    I got my first choice. It may be harder now, since so many slots are full. Good

  16. I really hate nursing school?

    UnicornMagic replied to Nicolexo's topic in General Students

    Lol you hate science? You know nursing is science, right?? Sounds to me like you are in this for all the wrong

  17. I want to be a RN, what should I do?

    UnicornMagic replied to 912bear's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    As a previous posted said, an ADN will get you far further than a BS in Psych. It is never too late to change your path. I would make the switch now, and start working towards

  18. Best Friend Getting Married

    UnicornMagic replied to tbird88's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Her friend just announced she was getting married. She gave her no time to prepare. Go to class. You need every point you can get. This isn't a fancy wedding that she planned for a year and made...

  19. Dreading Micro!

    UnicornMagic replied to beautyandbrains's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was afraid of Microbiology, too, for some reason. I took it with Statistics over the summer and got all As. I LOVED micro. It was a lot more fun and interesting to me than A&P, surprisingly....

    UnicornMagic replied to christina4316's topic in Florida Nursing

    Oh you are on the PM schedule? I'll be in day classes, so I wont be seeing you then. One of my friends got in for days at Bay Pines, too. I am eager to see who else will be in our wee

  22. Spc Spring 2016

    UnicornMagic replied to christina4316's topic in Florida Nursing

    I got my schedule today. I will be at Bay Pines. I was pretty disappointed there were no Baycare options, as that is where I really wanted to be, but Bay Pines was my first choice between the...

    Foot, meet mouth! Well...I'm sure you would make a great big sister! My apologies,

  24. what should I do with classmate/ friend who won't study but will complain about failing?

    UnicornMagic replied to Goal_NP's topic in General Students

    Drop her like a bad habit. You don't owe anything to anyone but yourself. Nursing school is super competitive, as you know. These classes filter out those who don't have what it takes to make it...

  25. Jealous Friends...

    UnicornMagic replied to Upward_Bound's topic in School, College Programs

    Hooray for big sisters doing all of the hard work and research for us! Until you posted this, I hadn't realized I am actually a copycat, too! My sister is 6 years older than me, and had been an LPN...
