    HELP! BS degree, trouble with accelerated BSN programs

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to kyleegillen's topic in General Students

    Who told you that you can only take it three times? A quick google search showed me this: However, officially, ATI has not really put a limit on the number of times you can appear for the exam....

    FASFA & School...

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

    Yes, fill it out. Put all possible schools on the application. If you don't use it, nothing happens. It's sent to and disbursed by your school, so it just won't be sent anywhere. You have to apply...

    Urgent... Nursing vs accounting degree?

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

    I think that's a pretty big assumption - it could be that it just wasn't a good fit with the teacher. If you want to be a nurse, take a few more pre-requisites and see how you like them. People do...

    Urgent... Nursing vs accounting degree?

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

    You let one class hold you back? That seems extreme. Especially considering that if not nursing, you want to go into accounting. No one can tell you what to do with your future. You have to figure...

    Im loosing all my hope

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Kalasang97's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would take the classes in the Spring and see where that puts your GPA, then decide what to do from there. If you can raise it up, apply for Spring

    What % of women don't know basics of female anatomy?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    Fire Girls original post was talking about nurses posting on Instagram about lady partsl steaming and the like - I think her point was that those health care professionals should know better, not that...

    Im loosing all my hope

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Kalasang97's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Right, but I'm wondering how many opportunities you have to raise your GPA - meaning other classes you're required to take before you

    Nursing School! Am I doomed?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to arb29171's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'll be 40 when I graduate. I'm taking the BSN route because that's what the demand in this area is

    "Fixin' to die"

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to ktwlpn's topic in Nursing News

    Regional dialect = how people speak. It's not something you turn on and off for different audiences. Perhaps if I'm ever interviewed, I'll speak with a British accent so as not to embarrass my...

    Nurses quitting jobs

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

    I think it's the nature of the internet. People don't talk nearly as much when they are happy as when they are upset. So IMO we're not seeing the whole spectrum, but rather one end of it. It really...

    "Fixin' to die"

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to ktwlpn's topic in Nursing News

    That's entirely your opinion. Some people might think that people who spell incorrectly or leave out spaces between their sentences might be ignorant. But I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and...

    How long did it take you to earn your degree?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to aveonurse2b's topic in General Students

    I've been taking classes on and off since 2009 for mine, but I'm older with two kids to juggle along with school. I've been back at it full time for just over a year, and I have another year until I...

    Art prereq

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to sugar'n'spice's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    IMO, it's not about "not making waves", but about picking your battles. If this is something you feel strongly about, by all means - express your concerns in the evaluation and continue to question...

    Is this course load doable?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to aveonurse2b's topic in General Students

    Since it seems as though you struggled with both science and math, I wouldn't recommend that schedule. I also agree that taking maybe Nutrition and Writing online would help, too. I'd put off applying...

    What % of women don't know basics of female anatomy?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Emergent's topic in General Nursing

    A surprising number of my friends didn't know there was a difference. Yes, it's taught in school, but the reality is that most of that "lesson" was so embarrassing and uncomfortable that most of the...

    Taking my first science class

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

    I was pretty nervous, too, but it was no where near as bad as I expected. I ended up with a 94. One thing I did do was go to ALL lab study hours that my teacher was present at. That extra time to...

    Applying to Nursing School

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to crislaudys07's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It depends on your school. According to this, Nursing RN Associate of Science in Nursing (ASN) | Miami Dade College - application for deadline is May 1, and all courses must be completed by then, so...

    New nursing student mom

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to perfectohno's topic in General Students

    I'm not in nursing school yet, but my husband will take over the cooking when I am. When I do make something that freezes well (spaghetti and meatballs, or chili), I just make a double batch and...

    To tell or not to tell?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to nursingRN123's topic in General Students

    Then yes, I would have an issue with it. Only you can decide if it's something you should inform your instructor about. Perhaps a phone call from a public place, or a mailed letter. Good luck in your...
