1. Getting Organized Before Starting School

   SLH522 replied to Katydidit34's topic in General Students

   Thank you so much for posting this question. I was wondering the same thing myself. I have three daughters, 13, 10, and 7...my hubby is an elementary teacher and minister. Life is hectic as it is - without me going to school. These tips were wonderfu...

2. Are there nurses out there with anxiety?

   SLH522 replied to Nancy428's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Hi! I have anxiety as well...I take Zoloft (the minimum that I can get by with) and it truly helps. I've often wondered how nursing might affect this...but I believe I can manage it.

3. What do I sign up for?

   SLH522 replied to JuggaloGirlie's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Yep, try to have whichever college you choose assign you an advisor as soon as possible. Good luck! :)

   "...while mine has to not only memorize this stuff, but worry about bills, the house, the girls blah blah the list goes on." Oh, how I can relate to that! Shanna

   SLH522 replied to Mudnuri's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Hi Mudnuri, I'm going to have my oldest daughter help me with memorization, too! It helps to have helpers. Yes, it can be very overwhelming. I had A&P I in '94 and I'm taking it over again in the fall...I hope I can recall some of my stuff...but ...

6. Statistics...how did you survive?

   SLH522 replied to SLH522's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Thank you...I will! I think curtailing the worrying will be a real problem for me...but I'm going to make an honest effort not to.

    I hope so! I'll check out the Dummie book for it...those are usually pretty good. Thanks for all the input! Shanna

11. Statistics...how did you survive?

    SLH522 replied to SLH522's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Thanks! You most definitely have my admiration! I'm going to commit to doing 1 chapter week before I have to actually take it. That way I won't be completely lost.

    SLH522 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

    I'm really dreading statistics. I'm not mathmatically-minded and I just bought a book on beginning statistics to try to get a leg-up with it. We really don't have any pre-requisite for it, either. Whoa boy. :uhoh21:

    SLH522 replied to nursingyoursoul's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I'm so glad you asked this question. I'm hard of hearing also and wondered how this was going to affect clinicals, etc.

14. DX with Fibromyalgia - concern about going forward with nursing.

    SLH522 replied to SLH522's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I've heard Curves is great! If you can't get to Curves there are several really good home videos out there. The yoga helps to relax me...it really stretches out those bunchy muscles. I used to do some pretty intense weight work until this happened. O...

    SLH522 replied to SLH522's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Thank you for your prayers...I need them! I manage...I never let it get me down and I refuse to let it dictate my life. I'm currently taking Zoloft and I'm going to go the way of low carb. I walk and do yoga. I appreciate the advice you all have giv...
