  3. Out of Nursing School

    Our class doesn't take the overall grade we have to pass each test with a 75 or above. If we fail one test or miss 8 hours of class (when we are there 40hrs a week) we are out.... We are talking with the dean but I'm not sure it will do any good. I t...

  12. Healthy 22 y/o mom with DNR

    I really think that it is an individuals choice. I don't see myself having a DNR but my husband that is 27 wants to get one and we have had this talk several times. For him it is all about the quality of life he could have after waking up.

  14. I will hopefully have under 5000 when I finish getting my LPN. However, I would still do it if it needed more. Think about how you will pay it back... I don't know salaries for your area, but consider income, interest, and maybe even go fulltime to s...
