    Grades are in... What did you ge???

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Nurse2bCerebellum's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This was, by far, my worst semester. Algebra: B Chemistry: B (though to be fair to me, mid-semester I was failing) Sociology: A History:

    ItsThatJenGirl posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I attended the information meeting at my prospective nursing school today and I left with more questions than I came with! If anyone can help me with any of them, I'd appreciate it! Transcripts - I...

    Few General Questions

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

    I did retake the class and got an A, so maybe they will average that, I hadn't thought of that possibility! Thank you so

    A&P Prep?

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

    Thanks! I really carefully chose my teacher based on her reviews. I will absolutely use everything I have access to to get the best foundation I can! I'm terrible at memorization, so I'll have to...

    Have GAD and Panic Disorder and am being told nursing isn't for me

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

    I answered you over on reddit - but my question is are your family members/boyfriend nurses? Do they have anything concrete to base their opinions on? Is your condition well managed? I have mental...

    Should I be a nurse? Fears, bodily fluids etc

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

    Maybe you should look into shadowing a nurse for a day or two? Or maybe becoming a part time nursing aide. Get up in there and see how you handle everything! School is a big commitment, and your...

    Tell my manager or keep the bipolar hidden

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to rhernandez748's topic in Health, Stress Management

    Sorry to high-jack, but I had a quick question. In Texas, to get licensed, you *must* disclose having Bipolar to the licensing board. It's entirely up to them if (even after all your schooling) you...

    Is an accelerated BSN worth $87K?

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to KJet5's topic in General Students

    Personally, I would not go into that much debt for school. Depending on your program, you might be able to complete your pre-requisites in a year, if you do a full load including summer, and perhaps...

    Few General Questions

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

    Thanks! I know I can take either Chem class - I was just curious about which was easier. I think I'll stick on the AAS course, because an extra degree certainly never hurt

    BSN degree seems off topic

    ItsThatJenGirl replied to Wayne47's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I don't see anything on my degree plan that seems useless. I've already learned many, many things that will apply to my nursing care and I'm not even in nursing school

    ADN, BSN, or accelerated BSN?

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

    My area is really pushing for BSN's. The hospital I want to work at requires that you either have a BSN on start, or pursue your BSN within three years of working there. I was initially going to get...
