Any starting in Fall 2008

Published

Is there anyone starting NS in the Fall of 2008 with me?

I don't start until September 2nd, and we get no choice about when our clinicals will be. They are all 6:45a-12:45a (for the first semester). It's pretty cool that you get a choice!

And no, we haven't even gotten a letter telling us when our orientation will be, yet! *nervous*

I am forunate enough that I don't have to work while going to nursing school so I can concentrate solely on school. Our children are grown and gone. I'm an oldie! 49!!! Yikes, that scares me! ha. Anyway I am taking A & P this summer, and the fall classes start on Sept. 3. I will be doing clinicals at the hospital from 2:00 to 8:00 on Weds-Thurs. This is a whole new experience for me. No experience in the medical field whatsoever, but I am very excited to get started! I wish all of you the best of luck! :)

I've got a book on order for "Test Success: Test-Taking Techniques for Beginning Nursing Students 4th Edition". I've taken all my prereq's already so thankfully all I have to focus on is the real nursing classes. I am taking Statistics this summer as a prereq to my BS.

I also start Aug 25 and my orientation is on the 22nd. I've already registered for my classes and taken all of my prereqs.

As far as preparing goes, I think I'm going to pick up a NCLEX book or something and of course keep reading through all the posts on this great site!

Starting at Thomas Jefferson in September -- assuming my student loans come through!! Otherwise, it's back-up plan time... LOL

I'm 50, so maybe we can start a coots nursing student thread. :lol2: (Hope I don't offend anyone. I always refer to myself as a coot and I rather enjoy my cooty-ness.)

Would you girls like me to get my hubby to make us a board to post on for just us so we can stay in contact with each other?
