1. I'm 23 and doing my pre-reqs...wondering...

   misscriss90 replied to taraer1206's topic in Pre-Nursing

   22 going on 23 and in my first semester of pre-reqs. Definitely not too old to pursue Nursing or any other major. As long as it's what's best for you and your future, go for it.

2. Finally got my head on straight!

   misscriss90 replied to patty89's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I am also taking only two classes per term. Also studying to CLEP a few so that it will be a bit quicker and lessen my load towards the program. Plus, I'll be able to dedicate my time to A&P when it comes time to take it. Determined to ace those ...

   Beautiful read. Thanks for sharing.

4. Finally got my head on straight!

   misscriss90 replied to patty89's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Same exact boat! Graduated in 08 and messed up my first year of CC. Took a break, had my son in 2011, became a certified pharm tech, and working in the pharmacy now. Felt that it was a good time to go back to school and work towards my ADN/BSN. I'm s...

   Congrats!

6. What prereq classes are you taking this fall? How many to go?

   misscriss90 replied to daisygarten's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Returning back to school after figuring out that I wanted to become an RN. Going PT until I can get back FA due to messing up my first year there. Have to pay out-of-pocket until then. Luckily I was able to get a $500 Fresh Start scholarship thru my ...

7. 1st day of LPN school

   misscriss90 replied to Mrsladysoul83's topic in LPN/LVN Students

   Good luck and study smart. Can't believe it's down to 10 now!

8. Any Nurses in Ophthalmology, Ophthalmic Nurses out there?

   Congrats!

9. CNA class dropped me - Sad :(

   misscriss90 replied to Pattycakes85's topic in CNA/MA

   How was your schedule looking like (how many credit hours)? I'm sure they could have asked if you could take one/two of your courses in the Spring term. Getting your CNA certification is important as well. It would give you experience once you found ...

10. Valencia College ASN, Florida Hospital College BSN, or UCF BSN

    misscriss90 replied to panjia's topic in Florida

    Thanks, panjia. So what will you be doing in the meantime until then? Taking courses that will fulfill the gen. eds for your BSN later down the line?

11. Valencia College ASN, Florida Hospital College BSN, or UCF BSN

    misscriss90 replied to panjia's topic in Florida

    Is Valencia highly competitive for entrance into their concurrent program? I see that you need a minimum of 2.5 overall GPA but I'm sure all those that were accepted had higher GPAs than that.

12. Anybody in the same boat?

    misscriss90 replied to PassionWithAPurpose's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Will be taking CNA courses in the Spring term and will also be taking pre-reqs along with it. Advisor thought it would be best for me to get my CNA license and work in the field to get more points towards admission into the RN program.

13. Fall Semester 2012

    misscriss90 replied to ginna121's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Good luck :) I'm studying to CLEP Sociology and Psychology. Kind of intimidated by the algebra but I know a refresher should help me as I'm not that bad with algebra.

14. Going to nursing school in Kentucky

    misscriss90 replied to NicoleMalone's topic in Pre-Nursing

    It looks like they are stating that you need to have a CNA/SRNA license and take an approved CNA/SRNA course to even take the exam. I know some schools having become a CNA/SRNA is one of their requirements for getting into their RN program. CNA cours...

15. Fall Semester 2012

    misscriss90 replied to ginna121's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I'm taking English I and Medical Terminology this Fall. Going slow as I don't want to burden myself going FT and working at the same time. Plus, I'm going on a cruise for a week in September and don't want to be behind in a bunch of classes. I'm als...
