I'm currently doing my pre-reqs and hopefully will be able to get into the nursing school here within a couple years. I'm a full-time student and I work part-time as well.

Thanks a lot Kyle! All of that is really helpful. It's just nice to know how people are doing it and what has helped them. I'll check out that Test for Success book-sounds like a good thing! Good luck in your nursing program!

The nursing school here will let you be enrolled in PSYC25 and Pharmacology and not be done yet when you apply. But all your Anatomy, Physiology, Microbiology, and all the other classes have to be done already...ugh!

Thank you so much for that info. I'm in central CA, so in the same system as you. I'm at a community college with a very limited # of spots in the nursing school (50) so it's really hard to get in. I'm nervous! I'm working hard though and am going to...

I do the same thing (pause in the middle of a show or remember something that I just HAVE to know what it means)! I love House too. They're all good shows...soooo addicting! Glad I'm not the only one!

Thank you so much for the response Catherine! Good luck in your ADN course, kudos to you for going back to school with kids, I'm sure it's hard! And as for the bolded part-I actually did have this originally in the general discussion board but a mod ...

Thank you Emery for sharing that! I know that the majority of nursing students do have to work, I think it must take a lot of dedication! Kudos to you for doing it! And good luck with finals :) I sure know how those are...coming up soon here too (act...

Thank you SO much Nikki! That was very helpful to hear. Unfortunately, the local nursing program/school doesn't allow people to get on the waiting list until they get all their pre-reqs done! :angryfire So I'm not sure what to do. I don't want to wai...
Thank you! I thought I probably had it right, but wanted to make sure. Hey, can you really blame me? Those shows are addicting :) (Although so unrealistic, I'm sure--they have kept me quite interested in nursing and given me a nice example of things ...

NOTE: Sorry if the topic is kind of "over" - I didn't read through all the pages of the topic as I'm trying to rush and study for an English final :) As a 19 year old girl researching different schools and options for becoming a nurse, I just have to...
