Hi! My name is Shay and I just FINALLY passed the HESI! Took 4 tries, and I'm so exited because this means I can start the nursing program in the fall of 2016. :) I'm going to RCGC (formerly Gloucester County College). Anyone else? I know they're goi...

Interested as well. I start in two weeks !

nurseslabs.org!!! Bookmark it.. it will save your sanity!

Before officially starting nursing school, I was on the President's list. After fundamentals I'm on the Dean's list! So excited :)

I am so happy I found this thread! I'm looking too :)

When I got my physical done for school, they did check my blood pressure and pulse. Etc etc.. as they do at every drs appointment lol. She didn't seem concerned! And my school never mentioned it either. It's been about a month since handing in my med...

I don't think a fast heart rate is enough for concern... I've always had a resting heart rate of 116 and I'm fine! Stop stressing:) If they have any questions I'm sure they'll contact you lol.

I started school right after having my baby and took allllllll of my pre-reqs online! Two years worth. It was really simple. I wish I took courses online from the beginning...would've avoided having to withdraw from so many. But I didn't know it was ...

Yay Congrats!!!

Surprised NJ wasn't on the Highest COL list!

I've been trying to figure that out too. I really hope I don't have to wait until orientation for a supply list because it would only give us 2 weeks to gather everything. Not possible! I need to know how much I'm looking at spending lol. (I go to a ...

Following !! :)

Same. Like I said in a similar forum, if someone asks me why I'm going to school, I'm saying nursing. Like I wouldn't be taking classes period if I weren't going to be a nurse. Obvi if I have to tell financial aid what my "major" was it would have to...

Wait, 45 minutes or miles?

If my grandmother asks me what I'm going to school for, I'll say nursing. Whether I'm accepted into the program or not, I'm not going to go into technicalities every time someone asks me why I'm going to school. Now, if I have to fill out an officia...

Awww!! I know how you feel. But don't worry this too shall pass. Plan a nice vacation next summer!! :) Youre only 18, it's fine to want to relax during summer. Up until now that's what summer has been for ! Think of taking this course as confirmation...

Of what?

This is pretty alarming. I've been on famotidine for about 6 months and was on protonix for a year before it. And I still wake up in the middle of the night to take a few tums. I could only imagine how terrible I'd feel if my pcp took me off; but th...

You have a prescription--don't worry! They are testing for illegal substances.

I've considered myself a nursing student as soon as I started taking the required courses. Whether it be a pre-req or not, I'm only taking them for nursing. :)

I really hope you didn't actually get in trouble for these situations.. That's so ridiculous!

Did he sign a HIPAA form yet?

Don't you obtain experience while in school? you still have years and years ahead of you before becoming manager or NP. Don't worry about that now! Start networking and inquiring about future jobs, get to know some people higher up. That's what I did...

Unless they're clipping them over my food, on above my head, I really don't see a problem whatsoever. Lol. Those are the only ways I'd feel affected.

Funny you mentioned this! I know for a fact this is true. A close friend of mine drives much better after smoking. He's less "twitchy" he says. Over the years I've noticed slight differences in the flow of his diving.
