Just started back to school for the first time since 1995, and changed my major from business degree to nursing. I'm taking a "fast track" 8 week Saturday class in Human Growth & Development, and then will take College Algebra and A & P 1 next semester...trying to get the pre-reqs out of the way while still working full time thru the end of the year. Also taking my PSB-NAT tomorrow evening. I've got my first quiz on Saturday...Ugh! I know I can do this if I put my mind to it, and my nose to the grindstone. Plus have the love and support of a wonderful husband and great teenage kids. Glad to hear that from all of you on board!

Hey all... Rebecca here.

I'm in the 2nd semester of an ADN program... finished up my med/surg rotation today, and I'm kind of sad about that. I totally loved this clinical, I had the best instructor ever. I really feel that my assessment and critical thinking skills have improved.

Next is community health and OB and then... that's it!

Wooohooooooooo!

Spring break in another week and a half. Can't wait. Til then I have 5 papers to work on, case studies due on Friday, my midsemester clinical evaluation tomorrow, etc.... never a break.

Oh, and I had another big micro exam today.

Just hoping I can keep my 4.0 going..... :roll

Think happy thoughts. We're almost at the end!

Hello Everyone!!!!!

I am wearing the word "STRESSED" all over me. I am currently working on my pre-req's and I am about to go crazy. I have Biology, Math 098, Psychology 200, and English 101. Our Spring Break starts March 22nd, even though I will still have to study so that I will not get behind. After Spring Break I will have only 14 class day left and I am just jumping for joy. Even though it is going to be short lived because I will be going to school in the summer also. These are the classes I am thinking about taking over the summer:

Biology 201-Human Anatomy & Physiology I

Psychology 210-Human Growth and Development

English 102

Then for the Fall semester I plan on taking:

Biology 202-Human Anatomy & Physiology II

Math 100-Intermediate College Algebra

Speech 106-Fundamentals of Communication

and maybe something like Sociology

Then I plan on taking Microbiology last. My plan if it is the Lord's will to enter the nursing program in January 2003. Everyone remember that God has not brought us this far to leave us. Keep each other in our thought's and prayers. May God Bless and Keep Us All!!!

LOVE ALWAYS,

SHUNDA HARRIS

Hi Everyone!!

Bean here! I'm taking psych (Human Growth and Development) and Medication Dosage Calculations. I'm getting an "A" in Psych so far and I start Med Dosage Calc next week. It's a 1/2 semester course which is why I'm starting it next week. Hubby and I are also just getting over the flu...I had a wonderful Spring Break filled with hacking, coughing, and high fevers...Woo Hoo!! But at least I didn't miss any class!! ;) Good luck to everyone for the rest of the semester!!!! :D

Hi there! I don't start school until the fall. I'll start with my pre-req's. But I love to read all of your posts. It sounds very interesting. I took a class back in high school (LONG TIME AGO, I'm 30 now), and got to go to a Hospital a watch a couple of surgeries. It was so cool. I guess I just have to pray that I get into the nursing program the first time I apply.

Snlisa, good luck getting in the program. Let us know when you hear from them.

Hi everyone,

I'm still here and kicking!

I have Human Growth / Dev. this semester in night school and so far have an A. Just found out last week that I got into a summer section of A&P 1. It's a 10 week course. EEEEKKKKSSSS!!!! I'm a little scared because it's condensed into only 10 weeks but I really enjoy A&P so I hope I will make it through ok. I've allready started memorizing bones in my spare time at work.

Today I have been working on an employment application for a local community hospital for an entry level position as a Patient Care Tech. / PCA / Unit Assoc. etc. Hopefully, if I get asked to interview I'll find out the pay will be sufficient to quit my current job which is not related to the medical field in any way. I can dream can't I???

That's all that's new with me. Can't wait for spring to arrive!!!

Take care everyone and best of luck to all of you!

Hi everyone! I just found this site last nite and am very impressed. It's nice to know I am not the ONLY person pulling their hair out! I attend school part-time since I work full-time on a psychiatric unit and teach a crisis prevention class to 300 employees at my facility. Oh...and that's not to mention the 4 kids and husband that require full time attention from me. WHEW! It's no wonder I'm a wreck! hehehe. My "plan" is to finish up all pre-reqs before entering clinicals. Anyone have any hints to offer an older (37) student that works full-time, like myself? Good luck to all!

Hello to everyone I am a prior Surgical Technologist. So I guess you can say my pre-req's were a piece of cake and long gone. I can't wait to be a nursing student. I haven't decided on a speciality, yet, but I will. I wish everyone good luck in their courses and a safe, warm (because it is downright chilly here) spring break.

See ya!!
