  1. Timed exam

    FutureNurseInfo replied to PrereqTaker89's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi, I understand where you are coming from. I feel like we all naturally wish to have plenty of time to score as high as we physically can. However, since you said the exam seemed easy (easy...

  2. Anyone unsuccessful in nursing school but excel as a nurse??

    FutureNurseInfo replied to Jess__'s topic in General Students

    OP, From what I have read, I see no indication that your performance is "lousy" the word that you never used in your post; meanwhile other posters have used this very same word. Moreover, you said...

  3. 31 and looking to change careers

    FutureNurseInfo replied to AshleyFromBrooklyn's topic in General Students

    Hey there, NYCer here, too! In terms of the LPN salary you can easily google and find the answer. In general, I have heard it varies anywhere between $30000 to $50000 per year depending on which...

  4. Grades not good but want to persue a career in nursing

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

    As much as many on here suggest that relocating may be an option, I would disagree. Unless you are willing to move to 'God knows where', then you will have no problem. However, if you are considering...

  5. I just want to quit..

    FutureNurseInfo replied to Memphis15's topic in General Students

    I think you should still finish, and put off working as a nurse for a while if you want to spend a few years with your young kids. Having an RN you can always find a job when you think you are ready....

  6. Need help finding the right ABSN program

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

    Agree: micro is a must. I do not see what is the problem: it is only one class to take. I have taken 6, and still have to take 4 more, and not complaining. Just do it and be done with

  7. Dropping out of my ABSN program to go to community college?

    FutureNurseInfo replied to jap1021's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Does your program have an option to decelerate? The school I will be applying to has such an option. I will, of course, apply to ABSN but if I feel I am not doing well I can switch to a traditional...

  8. My hesi a2 experience 13/2/17

    FutureNurseInfo replied to alysabrown44's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Did you get an overall score of 80, since you said BSN programs require that much minimum? Or is it minimum of 80 on each

  9. Quick question about Lehman College pre-reqs?

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

    I have heard this question asked before... I will be taking (if admitted, of course) it while in the program. I feel like taking it before getting accepted does not make much

  10. Low gpa and failure in pre reqs. Am I doomed?

    FutureNurseInfo replied to angel1312's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow, one class caused your GPA to be down by one whole point??? I am sorry to hear that. Yes, you can certainly retake it. Also, you are not a shameful student, things happen sometimes, and just...

  11. Quick question about Lehman College pre-reqs?

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

    I am applying to Lehman as well, though ABSN would be my first choice. I did, however, contact the school by email and had a response within a day. They do require both general chem and organic...

  12. Pace ABSN Fall 2017

    FutureNurseInfo replied to orchid17's topic in School, College Programs

    Congrats on acceptance! it would be nice you you guys came back in a year and told us how your journey

  13. Please help... Am I on the right path?

    FutureNurseInfo replied to jss1985's topic in General Students

    Like I said, do not overthink it. Clearly you have some confidence issues. By thinking you may fail is you setting yourself up for failure. Think positive. You are 32, and adult, and have what it...

  14. New RN struggling with first job out of school

    FutureNurseInfo replied to k3depro's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I guess just do what she says, and once you gain some experience you will be able to make your own decisions about the care of your patients. I do feel your resource nurse is being too pushy. I mean,...

  15. New RN struggling with first job out of school

    FutureNurseInfo replied to k3depro's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I truly am sorry to hear about your struggle. I am at the very beginning of my career change (yes, a career changer), and I know I will be job hunting in a couple of years. Even though working in peds...

  16. Please help... Am I on the right path?

    FutureNurseInfo replied to jss1985's topic in General Students

    Hi, I honestly did not read your post thoroughly but only skimmed. I did, however, got the gist of it. The thing is you are 32, and you have no room to make any errors. Yes, many will say you are...

  17. Cant apply to other nursing schools because of different pre req requirements!

    FutureNurseInfo replied to angel1312's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I know exactly how you feel. Originally I planned on applying to 7 schools, both public and private. However, after I found out all about each school's pre-reqs, I figured I would only apply to 2...

  18. Liu Post accelerated program.

    FutureNurseInfo replied to Athena926's topic in School, College Programs

    Hi there. LIU is on my list for accelerated BSN for summer 2018. To answer your question, since you applied specifically to the ABSN, I do not see why you would be accepted into the program other than...

  19. Advice! Stay in LIU Brooklyn or transfer to St. Joseph's Brooklyn?

    FutureNurseInfo replied to Guest1003675's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi, After thinking for a while, I decided to narrow my school list to include SUNY, Lehman, and York. As a second degree student I cannot accumulate more debt on top of what I already have. So, all...

  20. Advice! Stay in LIU Brooklyn or transfer to St. Joseph's Brooklyn?

    FutureNurseInfo replied to Guest1003675's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi, ambitious_student! SJC sounds appealing but now that I know what its pre-reqs are, they are way too many for me to take. If I do take them, it will postpone my application by at least one year. I...

  21. Advice! Stay in LIU Brooklyn or transfer to St. Joseph's Brooklyn?

    FutureNurseInfo replied to Guest1003675's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am considering both LIU and SJC for my BSN programs. It seems like SJC is a better choice it terms of the tuition. If you strongly believe that you will be accepted for the BSN at SJC, I think you...

    FutureNurseInfo posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi there, If anyone can assist me, please, do! I would very much appreciate it. So I have studied Lehman's nursing website and learned some good info. However, I am still unclear about something....

  24. Fell asleep during clinical.

    FutureNurseInfo replied to lolplayingnurse's topic in General Students

    How did it come about that you fell asleep? Did you feel so bored that you fell asleep? I am just trying to understand what the cause

  25. Nursing Grad without Experience Looking for a job... HELP!

    FutureNurseInfo replied to Bchow410's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I must be doing something wrong because it shouldn't be this hard for a grad with no experience to find a job! Well, in reality, it is hard for new grads to find a job within few months of graduation....
