    Nursing student and overhead costs

    araew2129 replied to pi.student's topic in General Students

    I'm also a nontraditional student. Luckily I have my husband to help pay living expenses, though his income is not enough so I will have to work. I currently work 34 hrs per week as an in-home...

    araew2129 replied to Nurse Magnolia's topic in General Students

    Congrats on all your hard work and achieving this goal! I was just accepted to my nursing program and will be 39 when I graduate (fingers crossed!). Thank you for your encouragement! P.S. I worked as...

    I should continue with the nursing program or change my degree?

    araew2129 replied to Joanna369's topic in General Students

    The first thing I thought when reading your post is pharmacy... I agree with a previous poster about taking a guidance counselor about which programs may be a good fit and may be able to use classes...

    ABSN VS ADN

    araew2129 replied to amas's topic in General Students

    I applied to and was accepted into a master's for entry to nursing (MEPN, similar to ABSN but at a master's level), the ADN program in my area, a traditional BSN, and a concurrent enrollment program...

    Second degree

    araew2129 replied to lllll7's topic in General Students

    I don't think you are going to be able to cut down on time... you will definitely need to retake classes to even be able to apply to a program. I don't know of any nursing programs that accept less...

    Taking Human Anatomy and Physiology I & Introductory Chem at the Same Time?

    araew2129 replied to tiana7's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took them together. Intro chem was not hard but a lot of busy work, at least in my class. A&P obviously takes a lot of studying; A&PI is mostly memorization in my opinion. A&PII is more...

    Need Advice/Motivation

    araew2129 replied to SirGerms's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If possible, try retaking those core sciences. It will depend on the specific program requirements as to whether they will accept the second attempt grades, so make sure you look for those programs...

    Maricopa CEP co-req

    araew2129 replied to CamMc's topic in Arizona Nursing

    In Tucson, none of our hospitals (we have 7, including the VA) are magnet at this time. One of them was (Banner UMC) but gave up that status during a recent renovation. I believe they will begin...

    I think you could refresh yourself on A&P and be successful in patho. A solid A&P foundation is absolutely crucial to understanding the disease processes, but I had classmates who did not have...

    Full Ride Scholarship or Not? Advice needed!!

    araew2129 replied to ThirdGenNurse's topic in General Students

    Agree with 203bravo. Becoming a LPN isn't really going to be THAT much of an advantage toward your goal of becoming a RN. So why waste their time (and money) and yours by going through that

    Paramedic looking for a career change...

    araew2129 replied to NYCNative21's topic in General Students

    Yes, I get it. I thought I was way behind by being in my early 20s before I ever went to school for anything. But I did it anyway. And then I got my bachelor's degree, enjoyed a 10 yr career in that...

    araew2129 replied to NYCNative21's topic in General Students

    You could go into the reserves now while working on your other degree/prerequisites and still get the GI bill to pay for PA school. You could work a ton now and save up for living expenses while in PA...

    Fallouts During Nursing School

    araew2129 replied to KMGS17's topic in General Students

    Life is like this, not just nursing school. In my previous career, I made work my life. I thought I had made good friends and we really had each other's backs. My career was in child welfare, which I...

    Rebuilding your grades

    araew2129 replied to britbrat16678's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You could always pad it by taking some filler easy classes, maybe during summer when you likely won't be doing those science courses. The sciences are most important and you should really concentrate...
