    I FEEL STUCK

    Your instructor was right about the LPN program, I wouldn't recommend it unless absolutely necessary. When the application period comes around, apply to both programs: ADN and LPN and get in where you...

    Is a 3.6 gpa good enough for nursing school?

    You've failed twice because of personal problems; what if something happens again, will you be able to handle the pressure? I am saying this because prerequisites are nothing compared to nursing...

    90 on the TEAS without studying... should I retake it?

    Honestly, I don't think you should retake. Below is your school's point system, work on getting as many points as possible without having to retake. The most points you can get is 20 and that's if you...

    Need some help with care plan

    I use nurselabs for my care plans. Based on this scenario, I would suggest you check these out Ineffective Coping – Nursing Diagnosis & Care Plan - Nurseslabs Risk for Injury – Nursing...

  8. You probably won't see any of that fun stuff. You'll probably be in med surg for the most part. Nursing isn't like the stuff you see on TV, so the patient with a tree lodged in his forehead may never...

    Don't go private. I graduated from a california community college and I had about the same stats as you. I spent a considerable amount of time applying to community colleges around my area and they...

    West coast university HELP

    The thing is, you're not even in the core nursing program so what's the point of paying thousands of dollars to take prerequisites? What's holding you back from finishing quickly at a

    problems.....at work

    I'm trying to be respectful as I write this and I doubt I will be successful. You work for an establishment so abide by their rules; it's not about your feelings. If you don't like their rules,...

    Did you get accepted into an RN program is the big question. If you did, then take it over the LPN program. Otherwise, stay where you have been offered a spot then bridge from

    How difficult is nursing school?

    It is a challenge. You're a freshman and I can tell you this, you need new study habits. Your GPA is also very important if you want to get into the core nursing program. Make sure you ace your...

    West Coast University

    DO NOT GO. Sorry I'm being blunt but the debt you will incur by going there- even after completing your prerequisites- is absolutely not worth it. There's also a lot that they don't tell you before...

    West coast university HELP

    West coast? RUN!! They don't care about you, it's all about the money. You can get a real education for a lot less at a community college. Save yourself the heartache and a future if crushing debt....

    Failed my Psych-tech State exam for the 3 time :(

    How many practice questions do you do a week? do you review the rationales? you should try and get a tutor so you can pass this time. The more times you retake, the less your chance of being...

    ADN or BSN as non-nursing major

    An ADN is cheaper to get and when you're done with school and pass your boards, you can practice as an RN. You will not be un-hireable just because you don't have a BSN. You may be restricted to where...
