I have no advice, just commiseration. I'm taking stats online over this summer too! Good luck to us both! I think anything is do-able with dedication and a will to succeed, and tutors are...

Congrats on the life decisions! It's such an awesome feeling isn't?! YOU CAN DO IT!!!! When that light bulb goes off and you finally just see clear, it makes all the hard work worth it. I...

Well, I think the dean came through for my class!!!!! Final grades were posted this morning, and my ending grade for the Combo Chem course was an A- !!!!! The other class mates I have talked to...

FYI: The class was Chemistry of Life, which consisted of three portions, Gen Chem, O-Chem, & Bio-Chem. This is listed as a pre-req for the nursing program I am working to get into. I only needed...

Then you obviously shouldn't be commenting and making comments to something you know nothing about. As I've stated, I take my schooling pretty seriously. I'm not a jerk who is just going to whine...

You really do love to make assumptions, don't you?! This was actually Organic Chemistry and Bio-Chemistry. I got an A in General Chem, but thanks for adding your non-constructive comments.

I'm 32, single Mom to two kiddos (4 and 2.5). I started pre-reqs a year ago, part time while working full time. I'm taking the leap to full time student this fall to finish the last of my pre-reqs...

Exactly this. Thank you for your understanding. I'm not sure when and where it happened that students forgot that they are indeed consumers and also have an obligation to give feedback to the...

Nekozuki, I fully admit I'm a bit prickly at the moment due to the stress of coming off of a tough semester, but I'd like to address/clear up a few things. I couldn't help but feel some of your...

I know he doesn't have tenure. He's an adjunct. He's retirement age (actually past retirement age) and teaches this one class at the community college and still does one summer class at another...

I hope you hear something back and it was some kind of mistake!! Yikes! Good luck!

Thanks for sharing... but I DID that. I also went to tutoring. I even googled things I did get wrong so I would know what it was. And sometimes even the almighty internet could not help with some...

I was curious if anyone else has dealt with this and what you did about it? I just finished my Chem pre-req with the worst and hardest teacher. He never actually "taught" anything. Just threw a...

I'm in a similiar situation with not many gen-eds/pre-reqs left. I didn't always know I was going the nursing route so a lot of my gen-eds were done before hand while working towards an entirely...

Yup, they are designed to weed people out. My Chem professor said as much last night when me and another student were marveling over how many have dropped. We started in a chem lecture of 80. I...

I agree completely with all of this! Very good advice. I struggle with fibromyalgia which produces all the symptoms you have listed. I struggled a lot more with it in my 20's than now in my 30's. ...

My heart goes out to you and you and your family are in my prayers. You sound like an amazing mother and nurse. Thank you for sharing your story. I pray you find peace. *hugs*

I agree with the previous post about if it is a school that would look unfavorably on your OOH birth experience... is that really where you want to be? In the few grad schools I've checked out so...

I completely agree with this. I also think age/life experience factors in. As a 30-something adult student, I really find the "well-rounded/lib art" requirements a waste of time and money. For...

I think by time I'm all done I'll be looking at somewhere in the neighborhood of $100K for the completion of a MSN. Same boat as a previous poster, I have two small kids and am a single mom, I can't...

I would leave it off. But, there are clever ways to add your Mom skills to your resume under a "skills" section, such as able to multi-task in chaotic and fast paced environment", "detail oriented",...

I'm going straight for the BSN for a few reasons. 1) Because I plan on going on to get my MSN-CNM degree and going straight for teh BSN saves time. 2) Because as others have said, in my area if...

Thank you Midwifetobe! That is an excellent amount of information. :-) I am a single Mom, so not able to re-locate, so that is definitely a big factor for me. I'm hesitant about a distance ed...

I was curious what you took into consideration when choosing which school to attend for your masters program.

I'm currently a data specialist and will be making the move to full time student in January 2014. My boss already knows as my position is a long training and he knew I was going to school and was...
