What I find helpful is keeping a planner. On each day, write what homework you have to get done, due dates, and how long to study for. Also, add your work from your personal life, such as your kids...
I would take stats along with your nursing classes. You just need to make sure that you have plenty of time to study for all of your classes. If you wait to take stats, you may not remember all of...
Usually if you fail a nursing course, another program won't take you in and let you continue where you left off. You will get credit for your prereqs and all of your general education classes, but you...
No, you don't need to be a RN before BSN. For nursing there are two routes: ADN nurses or BSN nurses. ADN are associate degree nurses, this is usually obtained through a community college. This route...
You will need proof of high school graduation or a GED to apply for a nursing program. But, you can take non-nursing courses, like prereqs (math, bio, English) without having a GED or
I've been going full time since I graduated high school and it will take me 5 years for a BSN. It took me 2 years for the prereqs (12-13 credits per semester), and I took one class during the summer....

Highlighters and gel pens are my favorite things!! I also use A LOT of flashcards. Colorful small tabs or small sticky notes to mark important pages in the textbook are super helpful
I don't know how stressed out you get, but I feel if you have enough time to put towards your classes, then it will reduce your stress level and you'll be fine. If you have a busy schedule and can't...
Hello, If you could get accepted into an ADN program this year I would definitely go that route instead of waiting a whole year to get into an ABSN program. Then, after you graduate you can go full...
If your goal is to become a RN, then don't do the LPN route. It will be more money in the long run because you will have to pay for LPN school, then RN school. Also, it will take much more time. If...
