1. Am I crazy?

   goddess_of_summer replied to goddess_of_summer's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Thanks everyone, once again for your replies! I did find out that I do not have to have ALL my pre-reqs finished to apply. I need at least 9 credits, not including the Chemistry class. So I can apply after that first semester even without taking all ...

2. Am I crazy?

   I've considered this, but I am a much better hands on learner than I am distance learner. Especially with classes that include labs... But thanks for the suggestion!

3. Am I crazy?

   goddess_of_summer replied to goddess_of_summer's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Thank you so much for your advice!! I am so glad I asked this question here. I probably will end up taking Chem, A&P, Psych, and the computer class. The computer class is only 5 weeks and I imagine it will be very simple because I am no stranger ...

   Thanks so much! I am definitely starting to see this is not such a good idea! And will be talking to a degree counselor before I sign up! Thanks!

6. Am I crazy?

   goddess_of_summer replied to goddess_of_summer's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Thanks for the quick response! So are you saying I can still apply even though I haven't taken all of the prereqs? I know this probably varies from school to school, but I assumed I had to finish all of the classes before I could even turn in my appl...

   I have been out of high school for over 16 years now and have a few college credits but mostly in the humanities. The last science class I took was my sophomore year in highschool, way back when parachute pants were the rage! ROFL! Anyway, I would l...

8. Undersköterska = LVN/LPN???

   goddess_of_summer replied to goddess_of_summer's topic in International

   Why is there a difference between citizens and non citizens? But I am not trying to take any shortcuts. I thought I was entering a program that was the same as an LVN program. I thought I would graduate from this program, get a job, then when and if...

10. Undersköterska = LVN/LPN???

    goddess_of_summer replied to goddess_of_summer's topic in International

    I am a US Citizen so no problems there. I'm not sure what further information I can give. I just thought maybe someone in Sweden who was an undersköterska would know if it is the equivelent of an LVN or a CNA. There seems to be quite a debate ...

    goddess_of_summer replied to Jen2's topic in General Students

    I bought a few supplies over a month ago. And one of my books last week. Have to wait for financial aid to get the rest of them. I don't have my backpack packed yet because I will probably get a new one. But I do have all of my stuff stacked up n...

12. Undersköterska = LVN/LPN???

    goddess_of_summer posted a topic in International

    Does anyone know what an undersköterska (Swedish) is equal to in the States? I have been told by some that it is the same as an LVN, but by another that it is the same as a CNA. I haven't begun my schooling, yet, so I don't know who to even ask this...

    goddess_of_summer posted a topic in International

    I am new to these boards and it seems like there is a wealth of information here! I haven't found the answer to my question though in skimming through some posts. So maybe someone can help. I am a US citizen, but a current resident of Sweden. I wi...
