    Taking out a loan to pay for childcare during nursing school?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to LavenderDream's topic in General Students

    In addition to looking up assistance programs, talk to your school. A lot of schools have programs to help in this area. I wish you the best of

    As far as I know, you can't even get into nursing school without having your pre-requisites done. Have you applied to nursing school

    NCLEX-RN Mastery Vs. UWorld for supplemental material

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Wiggly Litchi's topic in General Students

    I use the NCLEX RN Mastery, and RN Mentor (free). I think the rationales for NCLEX Mastery are okay - the ones for RN Mentor are better. I plan to get UWorld in my last semester because of the

    Not until orientation - you'll have a peer mentor that will help you figure out which books you need and which ones you don't. I only purchased one

    Pro Life Beliefs and Nursing

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Tuzla99's topic in General Nursing

    Pro-life is such a misnomer, I find. OP, at this point, I'd focus your energy on getting back into school to complete your prerequisites before spending any more time worrying about abortions that...

    Having so much fun!

    ItsThatJenGirl posted a topic in General Students

    I'm in my fifth semester of a BSN program and even though I'm only three weeks into the actual nursing program, I'm having so much fun! I love my clinical instructor, and my classes are interesting...

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to ItsThatJenGirl's topic in General Students

    That's great! Congratulations! I finished up my first semester last week. My suggestion would be to really stay on top of things. We didn't have much in the way of homework or busy work - lots of...

    Pathophysiology Difficultly

    It's really hard to say. I had a difficult time because of the way the information was presented. It depends on your teacher, how they test and how they approach the

    I think they are redoing the knowledge center to make it more user friendly based on feedback from previous semesters. And they don't take long to

    I know it's hard. But is it really that hard?

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

    This really depends on what type of student you are. I've never really had to study before, then nursing school came. My first round of tests I did really well on - with no studying. So I got cocky....

    Is there CMA to RN bridge programs?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to WCSU1987's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What states are you looking at? Is your end goal to get a BSN? A 3.0 GPA is a tough sell honestly, even though that's a perfectly good GPA, there are so many people with just above perfectly good...

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Octobermyfav's topic in General Nursing

    I'm not speaking for anyone but myself. Unlike you, who is hell bent on making gross generalizations about a topic you've proven to know very little about. You can't make broad, ignorant statements...

    FOMO & anxiety. Need advise.

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Octobermyfav's topic in General Nursing

    Do you think that this is, perhaps, related to people like me being more open about how they feel, lifting the stigma a bit and allowing people to get the help they've always needed? And now people...

    Is there CMA to RN bridge programs?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to WCSU1987's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I mean this as gently as possible. You've been on here for years now asking about becoming a nurse. The truth is that there's no easy way or shortcut. You either need to retake classes and make...

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Octobermyfav's topic in General Nursing

    First, they aren't called "happy pills" - that's insulting to those of us that need them. They don't make me happy, they enable me to function and not toy with the idea of suicide. Second, I'm not...
