    Stanford Rape

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to brandy1017's topic in General Nursing

    I think it's good to be sensible too, and take realistic precautions to protect ourselves. The problem is that we shouldn't have to. How we dress, how much we drink, where we go, how we act - none of...

    San Antonio 2017 worried about their TEAS scores and GPAs

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Animalsrock's topic in School, College Programs

    I can't really study for the TEAS V, because as of August 31st, it won't be available anymore. I'm going to wait until the new test is out and see how I do. I'm not sure how to access that information...

    San Antonio 2017 worried about their TEAS scores and GPAs

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Animalsrock's topic in School, College Programs

    UTHSC allows that, too - you just have to have completed your math/science courses. Have you looked at the profiles for the previous years acceptance for UIW? So you can see what a median TEAS score...

    San Antonio 2017 worried about their TEAS scores and GPAs

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Animalsrock's topic in School, College Programs

    I'm a little worried about the TEAS, because we'll be taking the new test. But my grades are competitive for the school I want to attend (UTHSCSA). When are you applying? Which school are you looking...

    Stanford Rape

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to brandy1017's topic in General Nursing

    I do. I feel like the cultural is so deeply ingrained in our society that so many will never actually see how they unknowingly contribute to it. The mindset of some people in this thread are the...

    Stanford Rape

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to brandy1017's topic in General Nursing

    Oh there would have been a rape. Just a different girl, different party. And she didn't go off alone to a bedroom with him. She passed out and he drug her behind a dumpster and shoved greenery up her...

    The Waiting is the Hardest Part!

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Texasdude's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    If you're in Texas, I *think* they update the Texas BON website before they notify you. I read somewhere recently that that's how someone found out that they had passed. It went from "graduate nurse"...

    Yes, that will allow you to bring up your GPA, should you do well. There are calculators out there that will tell you what grades you need to get to achieve certain GPA's. My program takes your...

    Stanford Rape

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to brandy1017's topic in General Nursing

    The reason I don't use the word victim to describe myself is because people often flip the word around and use it to discredit any fear/anger/sadness/outrage I feel over sexual assault. As if I can be...

    Stanford Rape

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to brandy1017's topic in General Nursing

    I actually think we have a pretty clear idea exactly what happened, especially when you consider that he tried to run away and was physically tackled and restrained when approached. I think we'll...

    Stanford Rape

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to brandy1017's topic in General Nursing

    Speculating that she was doing okay makes me really uncomfortable. I'm not a fan of witch hunting necessarily, but I am a fan of the total outrage. Rape should be shocking and outrageous and we...

    Stanford Rape

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to brandy1017's topic in General Nursing

    I'm sorry - I didn't mean to make you feel dismissed at all. I use the word survivor because I have to use something when having conversations like this (and I don't ever shy away from talking about...

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to brandy1017's topic in General Nursing

    Yikes. I see the point you're trying to make, I just don't think I could possibly disagree more. Being unconscious doesn't make you less of a victim - not remembering doesn't lessen what's happened...

    Stanford Rape

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to brandy1017's topic in General Nursing

    Saying you were raped doesn't force you into a victim box at all. I refer to myself as a survivor. But this attitude of "you made the choice to get drunk" is very much contributing to rape culture...
