    What do I do if I don't get into a nursing school?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Lk1999's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yikes. I'm sorry. I'd apply to the schools you're interested in and get working on your pre-requisites. You'll have about two years to figure out the nursing school part. Good

    What do I do if I don't get into a nursing school?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Lk1999's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Why are community colleges out of the question? You'll have a MUCH easier time getting into a good University with some college credits under your belt (assuming good grades, of course). After you're...

    Moms any advice?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Farrah 34's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It depends entirely on you. I'm a pretty good student, with good study habits and really focused so they are usually easy A's for me. The first class I took in person was my first B, if that tells you...

    Moms any advice?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Farrah 34's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My advice would be to look into online courses. That's what I did when my kids were younger. It gave me the flexibility to study/learn when I could, rather than attend class every

    What Kind of Nurse Do You Want To Be?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to guest973135's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Above all, a good one. I imagine you're asking specialties though. I'm not sure - I've been interested in ED nursing, but I'm keeping an open mind/heart until I'm done with school, after I've...

    What classes are you taking? Fall 2016

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

    Oh no! I'm able to take either Gen Chem II or Organic Chem I, and I was leaning towards Organic Chem. Should I not? I just got home from A&P Lecture. This makes me sound like a dork, but I have...

    This is a requirement for my program. I guess I assumed that it was for most

    What classes are you taking? Fall 2016

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

    Everyone asks about grades in my class, and I'm tired of getting the sighs/eyerolls when I say I did well. It sucks - I work my butt off for my A's. I'm going to take a page from your book from now...

    Should I continue to nursing school?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Shannon1297's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would absolutely not start another program until my mental health issues were

    What are you guys taking for spring?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to khaner19's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm sort of up in the air. Originally I was going to do Organic Chem (lecture only), Microbio, A&P II and Government. I might move Microbio to a short summer semester and throw another class in...

    New Grad and Newlywed

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to RDBSN16's topic in General Nursing

    This is my opinion, and mine alone. In a perfect world I would not get pregnant within the first few years of marriage. I also wouldn't get pregnant at 21 (I had my first at 25, and I still feel like...

    New Grad and Newlywed

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to RDBSN16's topic in General Nursing

    Thousands of women manage every day just fine. Even if you immediately become pregnant, by the time you have the baby, you'll have a year under your belt. Also, talk to your future husband. He's much...

    Micro Frustrations

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

    Is there a review at the end of your chapter? Have you checked the publisher's site to see if there are any additional tools? Do you recognize patterns in her test

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

    Axial skeleton? Our next A&P tests are the week of Halloween. Lecture Monday, lab on Wednesday. The lecture test is open book, at home, and an in class essay, so I'm not worried about it. The lab...

    age of transfer credits

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to yaegs6's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It varies program to program. My school doesn't care how old your math/science courses are, just your grade in them. I'm in South Central

    CHEM 2 & A&P 1

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

    I'll be taking Organic Chem, A&P II, and Microbio together next semester. I haven't taken Chemistry II, but I have taken Chemistry I. A&P isn't "hard" per-say, it's just a lot of memorization...

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

    I think a little fear is healthy All of your questions really depend on the program you're applying to. Some nursing schools take ALL courses into account (mine does). Some only consider prerequisite...

    classes to take together?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to uscgwife17's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Then only take two classes at a time. We don't know what you can/can't handle. I stay home with my kids full time. I also homeschool them, and my husband and I run our own business. I take a full load...
