    h3summers posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am currently a NREMT Paramedic. For as long as I could remember I wanted to be a nurse. I worked as a CNA for a couple of years. Had the opportunity to go to EMT Basic school for free so I took it!...

  7. Excelsior

    h3summers replied to h3summers's topic in Government, Military

    I should have plenty of leave built up by then so I can fly in a day or two before so I can hopefully bounce back a little from the jet lag, test, then fly out that evening. The CPNE tests have a...

    h3summers replied to h3summers's topic in Government, Military

    Oh my goodness Pixie.RN, we have a lot in common. Yea, I am aware of that which is not a big deal to me. I think it might be better for me anyway. I'm not in a huge hurry as long as I make constant...

  11. Hello!

    h3summers replied to h3summers's topic in Excelsior College

    I am aware of the wait. Some were saying they've been waiting for close to a year. For me, that's not too bad. Because I can focus on one test at a time then switch my thinking to skills (I should be...

  12. Hello!

    h3summers replied to h3summers's topic in Excelsior College

    That's more of what I'm wanting to do. Stay in the ER until I get enough experience to go Flight. What do you want to do long term? How long did it take you guys to get through the Associates...

    h3summers replied to h3summers's topic in Excelsior College

    Hi!! It's very nice to meet you! I don't feel so alone in this process now. :) It didn't even cross my mind that the tests wouldn't be all multiple choice. I will have to be extra prepared lol. What...

    The school I am trying to go to for ADN (Excelsior) has two different options; either Associates of Science or Associates of Applied Science. I do want to transfer to a local university to complete my...

    h3summers replied to h3summers's topic in Excelsior College

    h3summers replied to Katastrophe's topic in General Nursing

    When I was in a bad department at the hospital, I checked the internal employment job postings everyday and kept faith that any day a good job would pop up or at least a more interesting department...

  18. Hello!

    h3summers replied to h3summers's topic in Excelsior College

    Awesome! I think that was the one I was looking at because financial aid covers everything including the exam and I like having a little bit of the 'traditional' feel with the discussions and quizzes....

    h3summers replied to allnurses's topic in General Nursing

    MASH Hot Lips is the reason I chose nursing and the military. Of course, all the nurses on Call the Midwife is awesome, too. And Dixie McCall on

  21. New nurse feeling hopeless

    h3summers replied to Katastrophe's topic in General Nursing

    So is it the stress of a new job and being totally on your own for the first time? Or is it just the particular field of nursing you're in at the moment? If it's the first one then it'll get easier...

  22. Am I going to hate nursing

    h3summers replied to AmberDray's topic in General Students

    Sounds like those girls are just being clickish (sp?). They're struggling so they want someone to pick on to make themselves feel better. They're just being bullies to put it bluntly. Anyway, don't...
