  1. Am I making the wrong decision?

    Nurse-To-Be-Joy replied to Ernestine's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you're not happy at that college, and don't mind waiting a little longer to be in a nursing program, then go for it! You have nothing to

  2. BSN or RN

    Nurse-To-Be-Joy replied to ibmaryann's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    :deadhorse Well, if you want to ever advance beyond an ADN, you have to get your BSN. And for me, why wouldn't I want to continue my education? Stopping at my 2-year, when I can get my 4-year, doesn't...

    Nurse-To-Be-Joy replied to tanner523's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have Comprehensive Medical Terminology by Betty Davis Jones. It is very thorough and has helped me tremendously with my A&P classes. I couldn't find it on Barnes & Noble....

  4. Net Results

    Nurse-To-Be-Joy replied to salsaking's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes, you can. The hardest part for me was the math. Just get a good study guide and you'll be fine. It really isn't that hard. Good luck to those of you who still need to take

  5. Net Results

    Nurse-To-Be-Joy replied to salsaking's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My college counts this score as 25% of their consideration. I tested into the 97th percentile (don't remember the % I got) and I got into the nursing program. So you got a pretty high score, and I...

    Nurse-To-Be-Joy replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    We got to disect a kidney last night. It was pretty interesting. And I know I must be going crazy because I was so proud I had a "good" kidney: all my medullary pyramids, renal columns, arteries, etc,...

  7. Anyone out there NOT good at math but aced Chem?

    Nurse-To-Be-Joy replied to FNPhopeful's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had an A all semester in Chem, but ended up with a B, probablyl because I had the flu when I was taking my final and was not allowed to reschedule. So.... take really good notes. Even small details...

    The NET at my school is computerized and they give you 3 1/2 hours. I took 2 1/2 just to make sure I did the best I

  11. For those who are compleating A & P II

    Nurse-To-Be-Joy replied to DAMomma's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had different teachers for A&P I and A&P II, but it was still basically a continuation. I really think A&P I is the basics, the foundation, of A&P II. My A&P I teacher was very...

    Nurse-To-Be-Joy replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think we have one more test and then the final. Probably one more quiz too. But we're on antimicrobial drugs, so at least the class is finally

  16. How much do books and supplies cost?

    Nurse-To-Be-Joy replied to nursinginga's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    For my first quarter, I'll spend about $1000-1200 on books, supplies, scrubs, etc. But, I'll only have to buy books in the first

  17. For those newly admitted, what are your plans for this summer?

    Nurse-To-Be-Joy replied to marilynmom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  18. Has anyone taken these two courses together during a summer session? Am I crazy??

    Nurse-To-Be-Joy replied to Heloisea3's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took those two together last fall. Even in a full semester, it's hard. But it can be done! Just keep your focus and minimize

    Woo hoo! I got my paper back and got a 95%! I wrote about necrotizing fasciitis. I'm so happy I don't have to revise

    Nurse-To-Be-Joy replied to allthingsbright's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am taking this summer OFF!!! I need a break. Since I'll be starting the Nursing program in the fall, I figure I deserve it. I can get my house in order and prepare for school, and THAT'S

  21. For the accepted students!

    Nurse-To-Be-Joy replied to chiynadol's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't think my college factors in every class you have taken, just the pre- and co-reqs. With those, I have all As and Bs, except for a C in College Algebra. I took the NET and scored in the 97th...
