  1. NCLEX STUDY BUDDY

    TheFutureChoice replied to Coffee's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Check with your school and classmates. You may have to put in money and do a training course to help you pass. I know the exam changed , did you take the old one or the new

  3. Losing Weight While In School

    TheFutureChoice replied to Joe V's topic in General Students

    TheFutureChoice replied to Penebly09's topic in General Students

    Sigh.... I STILL fight with myself over this. I am older than you too! If Independence is what you want, just plan for it. And write down your feelings. For me, regret over education/ past...

    TheFutureChoice replied to Kennakenna's topic in General Students

    TheFutureChoice replied to Stefyxox's topic in First Year After Licensure

    This is totally normal ! Get your RN- work for a few years and see how you feel about CRNA. You might find being a FNP a better fit. I want to work in managed care with people who have long term...

  9. Could Use Some Advice

    TheFutureChoice replied to Lacey Frasure's topic in General Students

    I was in a similar situation. Once the pandemic hit, I put the brakes on nursing school apps and decided to focus on my job as a pharmacy tech. I learned how to give immunizations, and was...

  10. I’m failing bio

    TheFutureChoice replied to Wannabenurseneko's topic in General Students

    If you cannot get an A, then get a B. If you cannot get a B, then leave the class. It is not worth the time to get less than a B. I have had to retake classes to get higher grades because I decided...

  11. Any advice if your boss (an RN manager) isn't willing to work with your school schedule?

    TheFutureChoice replied to jss1985's topic in General Students

    Drop to part-time- weekend only. If you need more days , then pick up the occasional shift. If they say no to that, then ask about taking a day off or being late once a week. Ask about things like...

    Should I: 1. Take the 3-4 science classes I need and apply to an ABSN program -OR- 2. Do an LPN program, then progress to an ABSN? The LPN program will get me into the field faster AND help with...

  15. I don't want to do nursing anymore??

    TheFutureChoice replied to Igevorgyan's topic in General Students

    Please, do not be hard on yourself. You tried your best. Take time to process this, then try again later. Pay off some debt first, get a job working as an EMT or CNA ( or anything else). I would also...

  16. Unsure of which program to continue

    TheFutureChoice replied to Katniss88's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Start searching for jobs that are not bedside. Then do the BSN online. The free time and reduced stress you have from the new job will make things easier for studying. YOu can do it, just keep and...

    TheFutureChoice replied to Marie Adele's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Frankly, the employer should have educated you well enough that you could have recognized the risk and consequences- for yourself and the patient. They put two people with little experience together...
