  1. Do you keep your school binders?

    NerdyKnitter posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have kept my general and organic chemistry binders on the advice of a few students. I have used the gen. chem. binder once, but I'm sure google would have served just as well. Do you keep yours? I'm...

    NerdyKnitter replied to ItsThatJenGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow, Jen! You have a LOT on your plate this term as well and should be very proud of your grade. It sucks not getting that A. I totally understand. When you're doing everything you can to balance it...

    NerdyKnitter replied to ItsThatJenGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Dissected a cow eye ball today. It was pretty cool. I got an 82 on my last exam. He assigned some extra credit over the weekend, which is soooo nice. I'm normally a 4.0 student, but this term was...

  7. What classes are you taking? Fall 2016

    NerdyKnitter replied to ItsThatJenGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've upped my work hours to about 35 hours/week. My client I care for needs me, and it turns out my family really does need the extra money. I've kept my 4.0 in English 101 and I've calculated just...

  8. BS to BSN/DNP programs?

    NerdyKnitter replied to NerdyKnitter's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you ladies for the encouragement and knowledge of the various routes. I did a little looking and these accelerated programs do look very intense. I do eventually want at least a BSN, and maybe...

  9. BS to BSN/DNP programs?

    NerdyKnitter posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have been working on pre-requisites for an RN program at my local community college for almost a year. I quit my Bachelor's of Science (in Human Development and Family Sciences) program 10 years ago...

  10. I have a huge tattoo on my arm and hand. Will I ever have a career in Nursing?

    NerdyKnitter replied to Papayacakes's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If it can be covered, I wouldn't give it a second thought. If it can't, it would depend on where you live and who you work for. CHI Franciscan is the big employer in my area. I have volunteered for...

    NerdyKnitter replied to ItsThatJenGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It would be nice if we got more to show for all these classes we take in order to qualify for our two-year program. To make matters worse for me, I am 21 credits shy of a Bachelors of Science in Human...

    You will do great! Muscles are my next lab practical as well. Let us know how it

  14. Staying in Program at the Expense of Happiness?

    NerdyKnitter replied to em1236's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm a firm believer (from experience) that no matter where you go, there you are. That isn't to say that a different environment isn't the right choice. Only you can make that decision, but I agree...

    NerdyKnitter replied to ItsThatJenGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you. I'm feeling ok about the 88. I didn't do well on my first lab practical, so I feel like I'm playing catch up a little bit. Either way, I'm going to work had and give this class my all!...

    We are doing a sheep brain, cow eye, and cow spinal cord in A&P 1. I was SURE I got at least a 92 on my lecture exam last week, but it was an 88. I shed a tear, but I'll be content knowing I...

    NerdyKnitter replied to khaner19's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    We are on quarters here, so for winter I'm taking A&P 2 and microbiology. Spring I take Dosage Calculations and Intro to Pharmacology. Those are my last classes before I start the program in the...

    NerdyKnitter replied to ItsThatJenGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I crushed my first A&P exam on Friday! There were 50 multiple choice questions and there was only 4 that I had to reason out. All the others I knew with 100% confidence! I am sooooo relieved. Now...

  21. How far out from applying are you?

    NerdyKnitter replied to Applejack's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Slow and steady is the way to do it! Schools are so competitive that quality counts. Take your time. I started last winter with algebra, then chem 121 in spring, and 131 (organic) in summer. Right now...

    NerdyKnitter replied to ItsThatJenGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Can one of you share the cost of Oak Meadow? I can't find it on the website. If there was something they could do from home that held them accountable, perhaps it could work... Thank you for sharing...

    NerdyKnitter replied to ItsThatJenGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    How do you ladies manage to homeschool while in school yourselves? Do you work also? I sent my kids back to school when I went back and it sucks so bad. I hate them being in school, but I don't see a...
