I"min this boat too, it seems. :D 35, two kids (one special needs) OTR Truck driver for a hubby. I guess I like to see how much stress the human body can endure :) Just getting started, but I really...

This is the one class I can't wait to start. I know it's going to be a lot of extra time studying, but it beats the heck out of essays on critiquing rhetoric :up: I've told my self that A&P is just...

I'm in the same boat as you. I actually started last fall, but when my daughter got sick I had to drop my classes. I'm starting all over this summer. Those darn remedial classes can get you. Summer...

LOL I will admit with my first child I was that mom once. I took my kid in with canker sores, convinced her face was going to fall off!

Does anyone do these, if only to look back when you are all done and laugh at the then disasters? I'm thinking about doing one. Did you stick with them during the hard stuff and long days?

Stick it out. I'm just working on pre-reqs right now, but I dropped out last semester because I hit a rough patch (partially unplannned stuff) and now I wish I hadn't. It gets better, just work hard...

*sigh* I made this big ol post, then it got eaten. :sour: It is competitive, yes. But you can only feel proud of your self if you get in!! You apply for nursing school your last semester then let...

I considered MedTech and was set up to start in just a few weeks last October, but quickly changed my mind when I seriously sat down and looked at the money involved, the fact that they are not...

Person 1: Knock Knock Person 2: Who's there? Person 1: HIPAA Person 2: HIPAA who? PErson 1: Can't tell you. :D

Oh I can only imagine.. that would make me crazy.

I very really truly believe that special children are brought here to show us the path we are destined for, just too blind to see it. It takes a lot of courage and strength to bring a special needs...

As a pre-nursing student AND the mother of a terminally ill, non verbal little girl I get to look at this from both sides of the fence. She is clumsy and falls a lot, and her aggression makes her...

currently 4 in pre-reqs. With two children under 5, one special needs and hubby gone all the time. It's about as much as I can reasonably handle!

I'm going from truck driver to nurse. I am so the non-traditional student it's not funny. I still have pre reqs to get through before I can actually get in to my nursing program but I'm extra...

you have to pass at med tech with a forty soething for the LPN or a 51 for the RN. If you don't pass you can re take it again. Good luck! Basically Med Tech is the first 30 people to get...

I heavily weighed the pros and cons of this exact problem. I wanted to be done in 2 years, but the thought of going to school and the school not getting accredited then not being employable bothered...

I was a truck driver for 10 years, in a construction setting (paving roads, etc) I almost never stopped for lunch. I just ate on the go, grabbing a bite to eat at the gas station when I DID finally...

Thanks! I honestly feel much better about this route. I kinda felt like I was "cheating" and by doing that it was gonna get me no where but broke. I got doubly lucky by being able to get into classes...

Okay, here it goes. I called a few places and no they don't take credits even if they ended up accredited. I did a major about turn and checked out things with Ivy Tech. I squeezed everything into...

What exactly is the stigma? Is it because it's not a University, or is it because it's a new(er) school? I admit, I'm not exactly sure where the reputation is coming from. I have read the bad reviews...

Oh ya, I'll be attending the Indy Campus.

It comes down to this, it's the biggest reason I'm taking the gamble. My daughter has MPS 3a, and I know that in the 2 years it will take me to get through it, she *should* stay fairly healthy. If I...

I'm going to be starting Medtech in October, and was wondering if anyone has anything recent to say about the school. Everything I see are reviews from '08-'10 but it seems to be better now? No news...

In 1999 when I was a new mom, my daughter wouldn't eat and kept crying I took her to the ER... for canker sores :o I'm sure they loved me. Last month though, I took my 4 year old to the ER. Up...

Hey all! I registered a few weeks ago, but have mostly just been reading around here. I start school in October at Medtech in Indianapolis. I'm working towards my ADN-RN. I am a full time mom to a 3...
