I am a single stay at home mom of three very demanding and hyper boys (9, 13, & 17) and added a princess who is now 1yr. I've trained for med off tech '95, MA '01, LPN '06 & did 1 yr @ RN school '07. Since then I've tried Excelsior College & have recently been re-admitted to my former nsg school.

In the same boat here. I decided to enter a RN program straight out of LPN school and now, 3 yrs later, I'm still working on my RN and still haven't gotten any experience at all. I have a decision to make real soon. As I continue my studying, I want...

Yeah, Tuesday is my deadline for admission. I have to get started on that study! I've been working on NC 4 for a while and still hadn't gotten through it all but I had to schedule the exam before my time ran out. The same for NC 5. Although I only h...

The first attempts I did, I cut and pasted the code. That didn't work. When I tried again and manually put it in, it went through. If you happen to have another exam that you would need to get the practice for, I would put in for that exam. It's good...

Ok, I don't mean to whine, but I'm stressing about having only two weeks left to do NC 4 & 5. I seem to always do this. I get scared of what's to come but once I get through it, it wasn't so bad. I wish I could just do it and get it over with alr...
