   One year doesn't actually sound too bad. I've been trying to find information on here because something about it makes me feel iffy, but then again, I don't trust anyone lol Did you do the LVN program at Job Corps, or know someone who did? P.s thank...

2. Job Corps

   walkingonthestars posted a topic in LPN/LVN Students

   I know that there are some old threads about Job Corps and I've read info. on their website and what-not. I was just wondering if some one could give me any specific information on how it works? I've heard that it can take up to two years to complet...

3. She/He Did What?!

   walkingonthestars replied to walkingonthestars's topic in General Nursing

   No, I’m not yet a nurse. I like learning and I like knowing history. I like learning from my mistakes as well as others mistakes, which was why I posted this. I feel I’m a bit eager and want to start learning already on what I should do/what I shoul...

4. She/He Did What?!

   walkingonthestars replied to walkingonthestars's topic in General Nursing

   Well, I'm not a nurse yet...so this will probably be off topic as it's not related to nursing but I'll go ahead and make fun of myself lol My brother was once talking to me and he randomly said/joked that watermelons grow on trees. Being sleep depriv...

5. She/He Did What?!

   walkingonthestars replied to walkingonthestars's topic in General Nursing

   With all honesty, I didn't start this to humiliate or embarrass anyone. I've always been fortunate enough to have wonderful nurses take care of me. And a recent post got me wondering whether or not some nurses mess up or do anything not "normal." Sor...

   A recent post has got me thinking: What's the craziest thing you've ever seen/come across from a nursing student/coworker? :smackingf

   I totally agree with some of your guys' posts! Grades/scores don't always mean or show how "smart" someone is. xtxrn: I've enjoyed reading your responses! Thank you :-) To everyone else, a thank you as well :)

   :smackingf There really aren't enough smilies to express what I felt when I read this.

9. I'm going crazy...sorry

   walkingonthestars replied to walkingonthestars's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I still have a long way to go. I'll barely be starting my science classes this upcoming Fall (which starts next week!), and I feel really overwhelmed, but I know that this is what I want to do. I may finish some time in 2015 or later :/ Yay! You're ...

10. Have you ever

    walkingonthestars replied to walkingonthestars's topic in General Nursing

    Well, that's true, but I think with nursing, you kind of have to prove yourself (like taking TEAS, NCLEX, etc). It felt to me like this person was just sliding by.... Hopefully no one will ever say that about me either. lol

11. Have you ever

    walkingonthestars replied to walkingonthestars's topic in General Nursing

    Well, I'm not a nurse yet, but I'm doing my best to complete my requirements to get into a nursing program. If you're already a nurse, how do you deal/work with someone like that? :smackingf

12. Have you ever

    walkingonthestars posted a topic in General Nursing

    Okay, let me start off by stating that with this post, I am NOT trying to insult anyone, I am just wondering... Have you ever questioned how anyone got into a nursing program? How they passed their classes? How they passed the NCLEX? I'm asking becau...

13. I'm going crazy...sorry

    walkingonthestars replied to walkingonthestars's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Thank you! I'm glad I'm not the only one feeling nervous! Good luck to you as well! I hope you get in to the other school, so that way you have more options!

14. I'm going crazy...sorry

    walkingonthestars replied to walkingonthestars's topic in Pre-Nursing

    lol. I've thought about joining Job Corps for their LVN program out here in CA. I haven't heard/read too many great things about the people/staff, but the school's LVN passing rate, I'd say, is pretty decent. I have yet to make life-altering decision...

15. Is it wrong...

    walkingonthestars replied to walkingonthestars's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Oh yes! This is another factor that's driving me crazy! I do receive Pell Grants. My school has this thing, I don't know if other schools do too, but after 90 attempted units we are put on lock list. Once on lock list we're only allowed to take cours...
