  1. Didn't make it.

    I appreciate all of the responses. I am not letting this one program stop me - and I am grateful for the sharing of your stories. It was a hard hit to take. And when I wrote the post, I was hurting, but I want to clarify something. My comment of peop...
  2. Didn't make it.

    I can appreciate your comments but as I said in my op - I am NOT saying I want it more than others. I am not "judging" anyone, and I certainly don't have an "attitude" as others suggested toward anyone. I don't even know any of the other candidates. ...
  3. Didn't make it.

    Why is it so hard to get into nursing school? Let me please ask that you not make mean comments here, I'm already heartbroken. But I seriously don't understand why it's so, so hard to just get IN to nursing school. I have heard that nursing school i...
  4. Arapahoe Community college fall 2015

    Thank you for the words of encouragement! I think the number of people who get in is what intimidates me the most but I feel like I have a lot of things going for me. I'm glad to hear that you like the school - that's important!! I'm sure you're busy...
  5. Arapahoe Community college fall 2015

    Was it hard to get in to ACC? I recently heard that of the 79 people that applied for fall 2015 only 35 were accepted and I'm starting to wonder if I need to make a back up plan. I have a good GPA, but I haven't taken the HESI yet. I think I'm going ...
  6. I knew it was coming...

    I watched the tele monitors as my patient who was on comfort care went asystole and then was asked to help provide post mortem care. She was still warm and I kept thinking she was going to wake up or move. After all, she was awake and talking when I ...
  7. Any good ekg/tele apps or websites?

    Lifeinthefastlane.com has been one of my favorites.
  8. NOT.HAPPY.

    What a great opportunity for you! I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. I suppose I need to simmer down and enjoy life while I can.
  9. NOT.HAPPY.

    I do schedule all my own prereqs, I am also attending two schools concurrently. I didn't wait till the last minute, when I found out having micro was "highly recommended" (it's not required to apply, only to graduate) I started looking for a class. T...
  10. I already miss you, WGU!

    I posted earlier about looking for an online micro class and came across WGU. I don't understand their prenursing RN/BSN. Is the program really all it's cracked up to be? I think what confused me was the clinicals, how does an online program guarante...
  11. B's in the non-sciences (retake?)

    Congrats on deciding to get your RN! I'm in a similar boat, where my biology was too old to count. (Which makes no sense to me...) I did find a workaround for that, which required me to attend two schools at the same time. one option - since you need...
  12. NOT.HAPPY.

    I was supposed to start a microbiology class today at a certain school. I went to pay for the class before it started and they hadn't added it for me yet. As annoying as that was, we got it sorted and the class was added. I had to wait until the next...
  13. Freaking myself out

    Wow, thank you both for your words of encouragement and resources! It's nice to have a vote of confidence from you! I am going to start studying very soon. I figure I'm about 3 months out from testing. I'm both excited and nervous! I will definitely ...
  14. Freaking myself out

    It's time to get serious about my application to nursing school. Okay, I've been serious about it, but it's time to start really putting things in order. The last official prerequisite that I need is a week away from ending. Mind you, I'm taking two ...
  15. Will an EKG course be worth it?

    I took an EKG course while I was waiting to start my CNA course. It was a 1 day class, and it was free. But here's the best part...I accepted a teletech job at a hospital in my area, and I will be paid the same as a beginning CNA, and get ICU experie...
