    Stats of Alamo College (San Antonio, TX) Nursing Students

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Sdg798's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Oh I just realized that stats isn't a degree requirement. Of the three science courses that are required, A&P II has been the most challenging for me. I'm not sure if it's because I'm taking two...

    I don't know how people can make it to adulthood without understanding the concept of free speech. It means you can say whatever you want, but it doesn't mean that you don't face consequences. I also...

    Low GPA ... Direct Entry NP?

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

    I'm not sure there are good programs out there that will accept your GPA, let alone entry into the program without any clinical

    Here you have to complete it before classes begin. It's part of the formal acceptance process. I just ordered my honor's stole for graduation! Less than two months and I'll finally have my first...

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

    I hated mine too last semester. I managed an A, but it was not a fun experience. This week was midterm week. I had 5 exams in 3 days - it was torture. I did manage to get a 105 on my Micro lecture...

    I've been told to change my major, I'll never make it as a nurse

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Myfuture1987's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Plenty was perhaps an overstatement on my part. There are no schools around here that allow retakes, either. But I've read about them on here often, so that's where my post came from. An assumption on...

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Myfuture1987's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    First, everyone gets test anxiety, don't use that an as excuse for poor grades. Next, she didn't tell you that nursing wasn't for you or that you'll never make it, she told you that you wouldn't be...

    You seem to be saying they are treating you poorly because they are women. I think that's what people are taking issue with and the reason you're being called sexist. Women fight against stereotypes...

    I got fired while being on orientation at a hospital for just 1 week. Why did this happen?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Strugaaa4eva's topic in General Nursing

    I think it's weird how many people think that taking 30 minutes for a personal phone call on the clock (especially during orientation) is totally okay. What if she had just left 30 minutes early? Or...

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

    The market here was my main decision making factor - hospitals here want BSN prepared nurses. The cost for a local program is $20k, so I figured it was worth it. The BSN program here takes 24 months...

    Is my textbook wrong?

    That's the opposite of what I've been taught, too. I was taught that sympathy was feeling compassion for another persons hardships and empathy was more personal - putting yourself in the other persons...

    I'm not the greatest at math and science, anyone else?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Skippy97's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think in general the core classes (English, Psych, Ethics) are easier for everyone. Before starting my pre-reqs I thought I was "bad" at science and math, but it turns out I'm not, I just needed to...
