  1. The student loan bubble is starting to burst

    If you read back to her post you would see she went for an Accounting degree, not a nursing degree at a community college. So that was 4 years of college. Depending on her state of residence, that number is probably not unusual to hear from a college...
  2. The student loan bubble is starting to burst

    Thats a pretty narrow view to have. I'm sure nobody wants to default on their student loans. Say somebody took your advice to get a menial job (if they didnt have one already) how much do you think they make? Working part time as a cashier (and almos...
  3. Where are you starting your clinicals?

    First clinicals will be in a rehab center for a few weeks. We are having one clinical day in a nursing home, I suppose as an introduction.
  4. Tallahassee Community College Fall 2013

    You will probably be accepted as an alternate for Spring term, their automatic acceptees for this year was from 145+. However we have 16 alternates and all but one got called in, so you could have a chance. It just varies every semester.
  5. Okay if you dont want to google just white culture, you can put in American culture, or whatever. Its not very hard to modify your search to not find neo nazi sites, not really that big of a deal.
  6. First Day of Nursing School

    Had my first day today. We went right into the course material after doing some Q & A's. Looks like clinicals start three weeks from now. Can't wait!
  7. Tallahassee Community College Fall 2013

    Good idea :) Any sort of bureaucratic process drives me up the wall, haha. Good luck with your exam!
  8. The book just puts emphasis on stereotypes, if you are that interested in learning about "white culture" (whatever that may be) then you can probably google the search to find some sort of understanding. On the other hand, the book probably doesnt h...
  9. Do I have any options?

    I definitely agree with the above poster, at this point loans & other assistence are your friend. I know my college offers a scholarship for single mothers, I would try looking for those maybe, and other grants as well. Don't give up, there are o...
  10. Cancelation of student loans on nov. 15???

    Its a satire article...
  11. Microbiology Fall 2013!!!

    Took Micro last year, and it was literally the EASIEST and best class I have ever taken-- and I am not a science orientated person at all. Don't stress too much, if you have half a brain you can pass it.
  12. Oldest in cohort...feeling out of place

    My nursing program has people of all ages in it, but I really dont think age is going to be a factor regardless. Nobody is going to treat you any differently for being older, everybody is equal.
  13. Tallahassee Community College Fall 2013

    I traveled up to Tallahassee from Sarasota to take the test and spend a few days scoping out the town, so I really don't know :/ I know TCC's website does say you have the option to take it at a testing center other than theres, but I dont know the p...
  14. Financial stress!!! GRRR

    Thats awful :/ I havent taken out student loans yet, but I'm looking into it, just in case I need to in the future, and mostly for living expenses. I cannot work as much as I would like to, so I'm unsure of how to pay for anything yet, I will have to...
  15. Getting Past Squeamish Feeling

    To be honest, I know this sounds a little weird, but I have never been too squeamish. I love horror movies, can watch gore without blinking, etc. The only time I have EVER been squeamish was when we were going over self harm in class. I honestly have...
