Oh wow...congrats to you Friendly Ghost!!! I'm still waiting...I think the offers of admission are released March 31st. I'm toying with the idea of applying to a school out of town, but...I really, really don't want to move...and it's too far for commuting.

I know I may make a couple of people gag here, but I loved my chemistry courses, especially Orgo!! I don't know why, I think I'm just a dorky nerd!

I'm in pre-nursing at my local University as of Jan. 2008. Since I have a BS in management, I can get into the accelerated program IF I take six classes and get all As. So far I am taking two classes to warm up and have managed to get the As. I will have four classes after this and I'm worried if I can do this. Classes that didn't transfer that I have to take are Sociology, Psychology, A nursing health class. I have to also take a Chem. class and I've never had Chem. My worry is that I'll be 48 in a couple months. Am I too old? I need honest opinions. This is something I've always wanted to do but do I have it in me?

Well I am in the same Wait, Pace, Wait motion as the rest of you. I will not find out til mid April and I am going nuts. I don't have a plan B yet and hope not to have to. I am 35 going on 36 so I understand the NEED to get in. I can't afford to wait very long. It's kinda now or never. Whehhhhh. stress palpitations!

Thanks for everyone's support. To Justmeagain and Crimson, you can NEVER be too old to live out your dreams. I think that is very very inspiring to everyone. I'm sure you'll both be wonderful nurses.

I needed to update on my acceptance...before today, I knew that I got accepted to nursing school no matter what, but I applied to two different programs at the university (their accelerated BSN as well as the traditional BSN program)..the first letter came for the accelerated and I got in ...so even if I got into the traditional, I am accepting the accelerated path instead! I'm happy, as I am 20 and it's crazy to think I'll be 21 and (hopefully) a NURSE!


Good luck to everyone else out there! Keep your head up high and keep good thoughts!

Hi Everyone!!! I am joining the waiting game too...I do not know how many has read my thread about taking the NET this past Thursday but it was not as bad as I thought it was going to be. I was have severe anxiety about it but I so am glad it is over..now I am waiting on my scores. I will tell you a little about myself

I am a 33 YRS OLD. I am a wife and a mother of 3 kids ( 11 yr old, 3 yr old and a 9 month old ) I am a CNA II and I got my Phlebotomy License last December also I finished a medication aide course last month. I have been going to my local community college FULL TIME for pre nursing classes since Fall 2003 and this is my last semester of those classes..thank GOD..
I am taking A & P II ( so far I have an A average) I am hoping since I have all the core classes out of the way this will give me extra points to help me if my NET scores are not up to par. I want to wish wish everyone GOOD LUCK and I have my fingers crossed for everybody!!!!

[FriendlyGhost87]

Well good luck to you!!! It sounds like you have all the right stuff to get in! I just found out yesterday I got into my accelerated BSN program. It's a wonderful feeling! Let us all know what happens.

[justmeagain]

Gag and then some! LOL. Wish you could have done my class for me. Org chem is ruining my life! I wish I loved it, everything would be so much easier. More power to you. I think if I had a different instructor (I have the absent minded professor) it would be easier. He goes off on tangents and then tests us on things that he didn't tell us about and aren't in the book, and sometimes cancels the labs to lecture for 5 hours to get us caught up (even though we are still weeks behind) and then slams us. At least the class is 1/2 over and just one week until spring break!
