  1. Lost

    Do you have a bachelor's in any other field? If so, do an accelerated BSN. It is fast, rigorous, and, quite expensive. However, you will be done in 12-18 months. Do you work at a hospital as a CNA?...
  2. Is 4.0 GPA a deal to be accepted to the Nursing Program?

    It is a universal truth, the better you do, the better chances you will have at life. Therefore, having a 4.0 GPA will pretty much solidify your chances of getting accepted. However, you still have to...
  3. A heavy course load...advice?

  7. LI/NY Nursing Programs

    I am still completing a few more pre-reqs. However, I will start applying this summer. I had quite a lot of schools to apply to but had to drop some of the private schools, like Columbia and NYU, due...
  8. Future Nursing Student

    Hmm, tough situation. I do not think any hospital will pay for you to get your RN. I mean, if you had your RN, and worked at a hospital as such, it might pay for your MSN, should you continue your...
  9. My situation, need advice from nurses.

    I do not think having an ADN and other BA/BS will give a slightest edge to get hired. I would suggest to go for for ABSN, pay 35k and be done in like a year. I have read dozens of threads on here...
  10. LI/NY Nursing Programs

    I am from NYC and will be applying to a few private and all public schools in the area. I will also apply to accelerated BSN, and, if eligible, some generic BSN
  11. ABSN Programs With High Acceptance Rates

    I am from NYC and know of some schools that are not easy but much easier to get into than others. So, here is the list: 1. Columbia University: very, very expensive, but had I applied I would have...

  14. TEAS Exam

    You can study from today till tomorrow but stressing over this way too much will not make it any easier to pass the exam. As long as you studied as much as you think you have, and you have a firm...

  17. Tips for personal essay!

    Is it an open-ended essay or does it have a specific purpose
  18. Am I good enough?

    The courses you got Ds in, are they the pre-reqs for your nursing program? If not, then you should not worry about it, since most schools only look at your pre-req GPA. However, if those courses ARE...
  19. LPN vs RN

    A big NO! Do not go for LPN. Wait out and reapply to ABSN or generic BSN

    From what I heard, poop and other bodily fluids are inevitable in your clinicals while in nursing

  23. I'm not sure what to do about nursing school

    I agree with PP. You have to think about yourself and your needs first. I say go for it. However, will all of your pre-reqs be still good for the program? I mean, you said yourself that you first went...
  24. Good bsn programs in ny/pa?

    I doubt you can directly transfer to a nursing program. You can transfer to a university/college and then apply to that university/college nursing
  25. Most of your grades look good. However, your chem grade may not be able to cut it. Then again, it all depends on the school/s you apply. I guess 78% is a C/C+, which may still be an ok grade. Your...
