  1. Calling all SPC Pre-Nursing Students!

    shrimp posted a topic in Florida Nursing

    Hello everyone! Forgive my enthusiasm. I visited the counselor today and got great news about most of my CA prereqs transferring in. I'm beyond ecstatic at this second chance I've been given. I...

  2. Do you consider yourself a "pre-nursing student" or "nursing student?"

    shrimp replied to NolaLj's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yay!

  3. Has anyone in here been an ER scribe?

    shrimp replied to NoctuRNal_UnicoRN's topic in General Nursing

    If your friend is set on being a PA, then I think you should be encouraging. I was a scribe for a while when I was still pursuing premed. I was making $10/hr in Northern California in 2012. It wasn't...

  4. French vs. Spanish

    shrimp replied to anna18's topic in General Students

    It depends on where you live, the school(s) you plan on applying to/attending, and/or where you plan on working. I'm a California native who recently relocated to Florida. I majored in French. Unwise...

  5. Being a pre-med is so overated

    shrimp replied to Ambreree's topic in General Nursing

    There are plenty of low GPA/low stats med students on SDN seeking admittance. I always found it funny how even some of those students still managed to be arrogant not only towards the nursing...

    A nursing

  7. Being a pre-med is so overated

    shrimp replied to Ambreree's topic in General Nursing

    You won't find nurses sticking up for themselves on a doctor forum and they shouldn't really. How many doctors are here on AN? I was on SDN when I was pre-med. A lot of them can be arrogant. If you...

    Thanks so much for the tips!

  9. fat in nursing school

    shrimp replied to FuturePN's topic in General Students

    I lost 40lbs between 2014/2015 and have managed to keep it off. Initially, I was working out daily, but, quite frankly, I hate going to the gym. You might find me there 1-2x a month lol. I'd rather do...

  10. Do your teachers round up grades?

    shrimp replied to NewNurs2020's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Depends on the professors. Most of mine did

  11. When are you officially a nursing student?

    shrimp replied to Zyprexa_Ho's topic in General Students

    Precisely to the bolded. I don't know why anyone who isn't in a program would lie and say they're X student though. The people who feel a need to say they're nursing students when they're in English...

  12. When are you officially a nursing student?

    shrimp replied to Zyprexa_Ho's topic in General Students

    They were accepted into a nursing program right? Hence, the nursing student designation.

  13. When are you officially a nursing student?

    shrimp replied to Zyprexa_Ho's topic in General Students

    I guess I don't see the gray because there's the designation of pre-nursing. Most schools have nursing majors/programs that require an application separate to the university, or at least that's how it...

  14. When are you officially a nursing student?

    shrimp replied to Zyprexa_Ho's topic in General Students

    I never told people I was a nursing major when I was taking prereqs because I wasn't accepted into a nursing program. Simple. All of us in the pre-nursing track (or pre-med/bio, pre-law, pre-health...

    shrimp replied to nursehopeful0626's topic in General Students

    @nursehopeful0626 exactly! Being proactive is key, and not just at this school, but any. I was apprehensive initially and first went to the campus a little defense. So far, they've given me absolutely...

    shrimp replied to nursehopeful0626's topic in General Students

    Is there a Facebook group or something where Galen students buy used books from each

  17. Has anyone taken the PAX RN in March/April 2016?? Help please!

    shrimp replied to helllonurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I can't say which specific topics were covered in Physics. It's far from my best subject and I felt I didn't need to study it too much because I hardly encountered it in any of my practice material...

  18. Has anyone taken the PAX RN in March/April 2016?? Help please!

    shrimp replied to helllonurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You're welcome. I thought the math section was the easiest. I had a lot of chemistry and physics questions too. I hardly saw any of the topics I studied for. Physics is my poorest of the sciences and...

    shrimp replied to nursehopeful0626's topic in General Students

    My enrollment appointment was yesterday, so I'm now enrolled for my first quarter. I'm taking 7 credits total (Intro to Lit [4], Info Tech for Nurses [2], and Student Success [1]). I was hoping they'd...

  20. Has anyone taken the PAX RN in March/April 2016?? Help please!

    shrimp replied to helllonurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    How many questions did you complete on the reading and science sections? Sounds like you struggled with time management. With the passages, I read each of them once, making sure to understand the...

  21. Finished nursing school today!

    shrimp replied to cmj806's topic in General Students

    Thanks! Totally worth it indeed! And I sure will.

  22. Finished nursing school today!

    shrimp replied to cmj806's topic in General Students

    I have no stories. I start my first quarter of nursing school in a few weeks. Just wanted to give you a congratulations and wish you the best of luck on the NCLEX.

    shrimp replied to nursehopeful0626's topic in General Students

    I took my prereqs 4-6 years ago, so I was a little worried. The NLN study guide and McGraw-Hill app helped me loads. One of the advisors told me about the scrubs changing to navy. That rocks. It's one...

    shrimp replied to nursehopeful0626's topic in School, College Programs

    I got the acceptance email yesterday. :) I'm expecting a call from them once they're done with my transcript review to make an appointment for enrollment. Have you done all your paperwork
