    Male Patient Modesty Question

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to tmaloney58's topic in General Nursing

    It would be erroneous to assume that it has anything to do with your gender and that one experience accurately represents all hospitals/personnel. That said, I'd follow up with the hospital - make a...

    Is nursing really for me???

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Gemini616's topic in General Students

    You're really the only one that can answer this. What part(s) of nursing interest you? I'm not in nursing school yet, but I question if nursing is for me sometimes. I won't know until I try though,...

    Advice from current nurses or students?

    Is it a good idea to take chemistry 2 and a&p1 this summer? Its a 7 week class

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to future_nurse100's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm taking Chem II this summer over 5 weeks, but I wouldn't recommend taking A&P in that short time period alongside it. It's a lot of material and memorization. Just my two cents

    Update from me. I woke up this morning with a fever and a killer sore throat. No time to be sick though, so I just got home from my last A&P II Lab exam. I'm so relieved it's over. I feel like I...

    Aww I'm sorry I had similar issues last summer. I really wanted to start Fall 2017, but the way the application cycle works it just didn't work out. I was super bummed, and that's when I started...

    I can't get hired either. It doesn't help that I haven't worked in 11 years. Being a stay at home mom doesn't count for much on the job front. Two tests down, two more to go this week. Then I'm...

    UT Health requires more classes, so my GPA is higher with those taken into consideration. My base GPA for UTA will rise once I finish up the the last of the prereq's, too (they haven't counted...

    My non-science GPA is not very good, thanks to classes I took when I was 17. My GPA for those is 3.2 (which was a shock), science 4.0. I'm not sure how competitive I am in general honestly - though...

    ADN or BSN

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

    I would just make sure that ADN's are being hired in your area. Some hospitals do with the requirements that you start a BSN program soonish, and some don't care at all. I'd also make sure that ED's...

    Out of 10 year hibernation. Am I overloading classes?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Ladybug0409's topic in General Nursing

    It's been 10 years and it's summer, I wouldn't recommend taking A&P in that situation. I'm certain it's doable, but it's going to be a good amount of pressure. I'd ease in the first semester and...

    HELP! ASN/ADN or ABSN

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to romanr0107's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'd probably do the ADN program to save the cash. You can always go back to school later. In order to figure out what education is best for your area, look at job postings and see the
