    I hope this doesn't come off as denigrating because I don't mean it to be. I presume that English is not your native tongue. I would encourage you to (a) continue to study English in order to develop...

    The older I get (be 44 very soon) the more my values change. Whether I enjoy it is down the list a ways (it used to be very near the top). I'll be OK if I just don't hate it most

    Music in My Heart replied to hapiyogi's topic in California Nursing

    Hi hapiyogi. Probably your fastest way to an RN is to get into the accelerated 2nd degree program at Sac State. They do competitive admissions so you don't need to worry about lotteries or waiting...

    I'm really sorry that you and your wife had to go through that awful experience. I must say, though, that such tragedy provides you with resources that most nurses do not have. Part of my motivation...

    Can I handle nursing?

    Music in My Heart replied to singlemom33's topic in General Nursing

    Well, you've got a five-year-old so you've done your share of poop. Blood is blood. I would think nasty, rotted teeth would be as bad as anything else. Don't sweat it... you'll get used to

    Music in My Heart replied to ms.futureRN86's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wiser words were never spoken. On many occasions I've been told how hard was a given class or instructor or that it was impossible to get an A. Each and every time I've managed to pull an A. I've...

    Well, it looks like they draw bids. Not too high, though. My experience with ATI thus far is that it's a WASTE of money. I far prefer the Saunders book I have. I don't find the DVDs to offer anything...
