How about a thread that will allow us to introduce ourselves to those who are new and the new students can do the same.
I am Stephany, 42, mother of 3 children, a son 22, a daughter 15, and a son 13. I am an LPN of nearly 11 years, and I am in my first semester of a five-semester rn program.
Care to share?
Hi! I'm 39, married, 3 BOYS (12,9,5). Decided after 14 yrs working as an accountant that I wanted to be a nurse, so 2 yrs ago I went back to school. What a shock! Am starting 2nd semester of BSN program this spring. Absolutely love nursing! Don't know why I waited so long. My 1st semester instructor introduced me to this website. I've already found tons of useful info, especially study tips. Can't wait to try them.
Hello!My name is Heather, I am 32, and I have 4 children which includes a new set of twins! I just finished my first semester of nursing. I also have 6+ years as a medic.
Holy smokes Good luck to you!!! I have twin 8 year old boys and have mercy, I never would have been able to do nursing school the first year! I think infact the first 3 years I was a complete zombie, you go girl!!

Thanks, well, they are a year.....I shouldnt say new...But I already made it though one semester, so I am hoping I will be ok the following semesters!!!
Hi everyone. I've been reading posts on this forum off and on for about a year and finally decided to post because I JUST GOT MY LETTER OF ACCEPTANCE INTO THE NURSING PROGRAM!!!! Wheeeeeeeeeee. I am soo excited. This is a second career for me. I have been a CPA for 20+ years but wanted a change. I am really looking forward to classes starting in January. Can anyone give me an idea of how much time they spend a week in class, lecture, clinic, studying? I am 47, married with 4 children and a dog. Sometimes I wish I was 20 years younger, I feel so old compared to the other students, but there are always a few other older students in my classes, so I don't feel out of place. Good luck to all .
:yelclap:Hey everyone. I am 33, married with a 14 year old son. I just finished up my 1st semester in nursing school. I am going for my RN. I have 4 more semesters to go. I have wanted to be a nurse since I was little. I am so lucky to have the opportunity to go to school. I love it. I love helping people and cannot wait till I graduate. I am enjoying this website. There are lots of great tips on here. Thank you.

Hello..I'm Katie. I have one semester left to complete for my ADN. I can't lie...I am getting very anxious about this last semester (management) let alone the NCLEX and starting to work!! I thought joining this site would help me prepare for what comes next!
