    Thank you! I greatly appreciate the feedback. :)
  2. University of St. Francis Joliet BSN

    Yes, please. Do you know what the graduation rate is? Is it more than half? And do you feel that the main goal of the staff is to support and educate, or to try to stress, discourage and eliminate you? Thanks!
  3. Choosing between nursing schools

    If it were me, I'd stay in Arizona. Nursing school is stressful beyond compare. You will need the sun, fresh air, and the comfort of established relationships.

  7. How do you keep yourself from quitting?

    LOL! Okay, I have to admit embarrassment is my greatest motivator too. It makes me feel better to see that others have had to tap into creative ways to keep going as well. I can relate to and take away from everyone, money, time invested, etc. But ma...

  14. math for meds help!!

  15. Whats your favorite montra or saying?

    I am never alone. God's will, not mine. Singing "You Are My All in All" helps too. I kinda let my focus drift from God that last week and I had a meltdown yesterday. This thread is well timed for me. OP, I love the "just keep swimming" mantra too...
