   I took mine today and I'm scared to death. I was always a strong student in school and I'm really worried. When the computer didn't shut down at 75 I panicked. I know that you can still fail at 75, but I thought I was prepared. Last time I looked it ...

2. Prereq difficulty equivalent to nursing classes?

   EMYSMOMMY replied to Crystalline's topic in General Nursing

   For me nursing classes haven't necessarily been more difficult, but more time consuming. I did very well in all my pre-reqs without actually having to study everyday. With my pre-reqs we rarely had homework. They measured our learning on quizzes and ...

6. Did Anyone Go To Nursing School While Raising Kids?

   EMYSMOMMY replied to selulion's topic in General Nursing

   I've got a 3 year old and I'm currently in a BSN program. It is tough, but if you have help it makes things a lot easier. I do a lot of my studying late at night. There are many evenings I may be up until 2 or 3 o'clock in the morning working on home...
