  1. Is Nursing considered a STEM field?

    floatingribs posted a topic in General Students

    I was looking to apply for some scholarships, but I'm not too sure if it's considered a STEM discipline. My nursing school comes under the college of arts and science and we end up with a Bachelor's...

  2. Nursing to med school experiences?

    floatingribs replied to floatingribs's topic in General Students

    That's actually another reason why I became iffy about doing pre med with nursing b/c I don't want to lose since it was a merit one and I have to keep a pretty good GPA for it not to get terminated....

  3. Nursing to med school experiences?

    floatingribs replied to floatingribs's topic in General Students

    This is what I'm looking into at the moment haha. If I keep my GPA really high which is hard as it is with nursing and far harder when u add 42 extra credits for pre med, and feel in the future that...

  4. Nursing to med school experiences?

    floatingribs replied to floatingribs's topic in General Students

    I was looking into some DO programs but I'll have to take my pre med reqs regardless. My main goal is to work in hospital setting or be able to get a decent job with my degree in 4 years. And again...

  5. Should I major in nursing? Advice please!

    floatingribs replied to medapop's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    To transfer into the nursing program in my school you need at least a 3.6 to apply and the competition for the couple of seats (seats only open up if someone drops the program) is crazy so people come...

    floatingribs posted a topic in General Students

    So I've freed up a lot of nusing courses so I was like might as well. Also the course for the cognitive neuroscience minor seem super interesting and I've already recieved psych credit for my AP. But...

  8. cognitive neurorscience minor w/ nursing?

    floatingribs replied to floatingribs's topic in General Students

    So a minor in general is more or less useless? Even a lang? or would the lang only matter if you could actually speak fluently in

  9. Need reasons why becoming a nurse first, then becoming a doctor, is a bad idea

    floatingribs replied to jeaux's topic in General Nursing

    Hey, So I understand that point, my parents are soooo strict (immigrant family) and I do understand what they say 100%, they make sense, they want me to be financially stable, they are looking...

  10. Nursing to med school experiences?

    floatingribs replied to floatingribs's topic in General Students

    I think some of you don't read the updated replies... I actually officially dropped pre med as of yesterday (though really some tough love from yall helped). I was doing the pre med b/c i just didn't...

  11. Need reasons why becoming a nurse first, then becoming a doctor, is a bad idea

    floatingribs replied to jeaux's topic in General Nursing

    Okay as someone who is very seriously considering this path but at this point am realizing it's literally not possible here's a list of reasons: 1) literally no courses overlap: literally none I am...

  12. Nursing to med school experiences?

    floatingribs replied to floatingribs's topic in General Students

    Are talking about post-bacc programs? Or majoring in nursing w/ pre med simultaneously? I'm aware of the undergrad hurdles (almost all of them u mentioned :/), but I'm not sure which program...

  13. Nursing to med school experiences?

    floatingribs replied to floatingribs's topic in General Students

    I agree I may be undermining the simplicity of it, but I was going to take orgo I & II (not the coming one) b/c there's pretty much no way I could keep y nursing gpa the same w/out having to put...

  14. Nursing to med school experiences?

    floatingribs replied to floatingribs's topic in General Students

    I was actually thinking of apply to an ABSN program, but everyone I've looked at so far requires either a 4 yr degree in something first, or they require you to take a year at the school before...

  15. How hard is it to get your #1 choice for clinicals?

    floatingribs posted a topic in General Students

    I'm a freshman but I like to unnecessarily stress myself out haha. But is it hard getting to your #1 choice. I've been told by advisers that's it's pretty much on us and from reading on my unis...

  16. How hard is it to get your #1 choice for clinicals?

    floatingribs replied to floatingribs's topic in General Students

    I'm in usa in a pretty good nursing program (Rutgers for the 4 yr BSN), I mean I know the advisers make sure all your paperwork is in and they guide you but what I've read online on the school's...

  17. Nursing to med school experiences?

    floatingribs replied to floatingribs's topic in General Students

    I think lots of you don't understand that pre-med is not a double major, it comes under a concentration. So for nursing I need 124 credits to graduate (this includes gen eds). So it fits the course...

  18. Nursing to med school experiences?

    floatingribs replied to floatingribs's topic in General Students

    Thank you! I see where you're coming from I think basing my freshman year compared to the rest of college is kind of dumb. I think I may opt to just take nursing courses during the spring and fall...

  19. Nursing to med school experiences?

    floatingribs replied to floatingribs's topic in General Students

    I think i sound very stubborn lol, but I do understand where yall are coming from since when people ask me now if they should (like some friends in hs) I don't recommend it at all, b/c of the lack of...

  20. Nursing to med school experiences?

  21. Nursing to med school experiences?

    floatingribs replied to floatingribs's topic in General Students

    The biggest factor is how statistics tend to stand against pre med students. And I'm aware the two professions are very different (the coursework alone shows that), but if I don't become a doctor I...

  22. How much to spend on College for a BSN?

    floatingribs replied to Apple2020's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm a freshman at a state school and before academic scholarships my tuition is around $14k. I actually got accepted to NYU, but compared to a state school that was already in the top 10% a $60k...

  23. What classes did you take with A&P?

    floatingribs replied to kayclarke's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm a full time student so it's definitely a lot easier for me and major props to you, but quite honestly A&P isn't too hard. As long as you can memorize, studying doesn't seem too hard as long as...

  24. nursing to med school?

    floatingribs posted a topic in General Students

    I'm a freshman in college with a major in nursing. I'm also taking pre med requirements so I can hopefully jump into Med school right after or perhaps with a gap year. There is this hugeeeeeee stigma...
