Useful sites for pre-nursing AND nursing students

This is a "sticky" from the nursing student forum. Many sites are useful for pre-nursing, too. If you find one you like, add it.

I took the NET in August. It wasn't bad at all...not what I was expecting. Basic reading comp and math. My school wouldn't let me use a calculator. :nono: :bluecry1: They say it should take about 3 hrs, but I was out of there in 1-1/2 and I did extremely well on it. It just seems to go on forever tho. The back 1/4 of it is study questions...defining your study type.

I took Chem, Alg and Dev and Gen Psychs in the spring. They seemed to go well together. I took A&P 1 and 2 this summer. :eek: OH MY! Talk about fast and furious. We had a test every other day, Lab test on Tuesday, and Lecture on Thurs. I survived and pulled A's but boy was it wild! :chair:

Hope this helps!

I just applied for Spring just today- I had my interview ( they just started interviews). I won't find out until November. I *hope to god* I get in.

BTW I am very glad to hear about Dr. Kaiser. I'm taking Micro with him in the Fall as my last pre-req.

Did you get in? I'm planning to move to Maryland from Michigan during the beginning of Summer 2006. I hope to get into CCBC at some point. I already have a science degree and may have a problem since I will have taken no classes there.

here's the dope on chemistry: do not fall behind. you have got to keep up with the material and learn it as it is being presented because each bit of information builds upon the next like links in a chain. some memorization of the different elements and their atomic numbers and valences is required at the outset. use flashcards to do this and review them often.

here are some websites that you might find helpful in explaining concepts that might be a little difficult for you to grasp:

Hello. I'm currently taking my pre-reqs. at BCCC but I am going to transfer them to Coppin State University for their RN Program. Coppin requires all pre-nursing students to take the nurse entrance exam (NET). Does anyone know what curriculum is on this test or has anyone taken a nurse entrance exam lately?
