    Salary and opinions on BSN degrees.

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Ashtimus Prime's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I'm confused. You can't be an NP with a Bachelor's

    Nurse opinions on "Birth Rape"

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to EKUGRAD's topic in Ob/Gyn

    I'm not a nurse, just a lowly student. I've been raped - and if a woman feels violated after her birth experience and feels it appropriate to call it birth rape, that doesn't take anything away from...

    Go Fund Me for Co-workers?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Emergent's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Stuff like this used to really bother me - I had a "friend" that had one because she continued to make really crappy life choices and wanted people to support her while she "found" herself. But...

    Spring 2017 Chat

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

    The only real struggle is when the tests fall on the same weeks - for example next week I have a lecture exam in Micro on Tuesday, a Lab exam in A&P II on Wednesday and a lab practical in Micro on...

    Most important to study?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to ripsky4501's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I wouldn't start studying early for any class, because you have no idea what the teacher will want you to know. I started pre-studying A&P I and it was a huge waste of time (and really just...

    Eye and ear anatomy questions?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to CedarGirl10's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I'm attempting to help, but I should state that I'm a pre-nursing student. I know that specific structures adapt at different paces - like Merkel discs and Ruffini corpuscles - maybe that's an...

    BSN VS MSN

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to marqoo10's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you think your GPA isn't competitive enough for an ABSN program, why do you think it will be for a Masters program? Aren't the requirements as tough (if not more)? The program here is a minimum 2.5...

    Popular undergrad majors for students who will apply to a BSN program?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Kaitlyn.w's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm graduating in May with my AS in Biology, which is my school's pre-nursing degree. There were two additional classes that I had to take to actually get the degree (as opposed to just transferring),...

    Taking the TEAS V before taking A&P??

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

    Do some practice tests online and see how it goes. You could very well do just fine with those classes under your

    Not transferring transcripts due to bad grades?

    Will nursing wreck my hands?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to BookishBelle's topic in General Nursing

    This is a great question! I have allergy related eczema on my hands and they can be really, really painful when it flares up. I use Philosophy Miracle Hands and their Hands of Hope right now, but that...

    Not transferring transcripts due to bad grades?

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

    I would not leave any transcripts off of my applications. Not only will they find out, it's dishonest. I have old, bad transcripts, too. It's just one of those

    Professor making it difficult in chemistry

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

    I'm a very good student and Chemistry was my first B. I had a terrible, terrible teacher (he was actually fired after our class because he was so objectively bad - we were his first and only class)...

    Taking the TEAS V before taking A&P??

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

    Based on the reviews I'm working on for the TEAS VI, I would not recommend taking it before not only A&P but some sort of biology class. The science portion isn't easy q's like "what system does...

    Unreasonable professor

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

    What was the grade? I can tell you right now that I'd get docked points for those things you've mentioned in any/all of my classes. It's a communication class, so those little mistakes are important....

    Denied but don't know why (Bergen CC Day Fall 2017)

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

    A quick look at the program showed me these requirements: BIO109 and BIO209; WRT101 and WRT201; PSY101 and PSY106; SOC101 - did you complete

    Online vs. On Campus

    ItsThatJenGirl posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Can someone talk this through with me? Option 1: There is a BSN program here in town that I plan on applying to. It's on campus. It's inexpensive and NCLEX pass rate is 89%. It's very, very...

    A&P lab: How does it work?

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

    It's going to be different everywhere, but for us it was 90% models, and at the end of A&P I, we dissected a sheep eye and brain. At the end of A&P II we're dissecting rats. Everything else is...

    Am I overreacting?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Rnpk's topic in Nursing Professionalism

    Can you bring it up? Say, "hey, can we throw a potluck together for my graduation? I'd love to celebrate with my favorite people" or something like that. If I want something done, I usually have to do...

    What Do You Do When Co-Worker Falls Asleep on Night Shift?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to NightNerd's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Maybe approach it from a place of concern? Mention the Doctor seeing her sleep and frame it like you want to help her stop sleeping so she won't get fired. Good

    Nursing Arrogance

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Flowerchild6065's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I don't really think the meme is funny, but the outrage over it is way over the top. My gosh I don't want to be a martyr - I don't even want to be viewed as one. If that's what's going to be expected...

    Spring 2017 Chat

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

    I'm not sure who you're addressing in this post? So I failed my A&P II lab exam (67) - I made the dumbest mistakes and I think I just got way too cocky. My teacher was so worried about me and...
