anxious about starting my classes?

When I started my CNA class there were about 5 or 6 males. 3 of us finished. It is a little weird but just be yourself and bonds will form. some girls start their own little cliques or whatever. I was never involved with that. I was just nice to everyone.

I work with male and female nurses and I think the reason male nurses might get more respect is the fact they have to strive harder in a female dominant field. You need to have great people skills, and be respectful, courteous, firm, strong(emotionally & physically), sympathetic, ect.. and be able to give the same care that most women have naturally. But It really doesn't matter, you will know how to tell the good nurses from the bad. both male and female.

LPN school can get paid for by scholarships or grants. Not solely based on being male though. They take more into consideration. Race,Gender, income, dependents, age, employment, and such.
I am meeting with a financial assistance lady today. I'll tell ya how it goes.

The best advice I can give you is to stay calm and don't freak out. always ask questions if you don't know!
