Murse 2022

Thanks for the advice just want to get through it the prereqs were a lot of work but I'm ready For the next phase

Well looks like I'm getting into the RN program at my school Sept 2024 I am ancient 46 I've been a law enforcement officer for many years but I'm ready to hang up my handcuffs for a stethoscope.It's been hard taking care of my ailing mom and taking Prereqs but I managed to pull through with A's and A's well not micro detested it got a B- but it doesn't factor towards my GPA it's not a prereq but a core required class.anyway any advice for my start in the program would be great what should I expect etc

OMG this class was hard.He quizzed us every week for lab no extra credit was offered.I work full time and do about 30 hours of mandatory overtime per week so I'm not going to beat myself up for the B- I received I worked hard and did the best I could so glad it's over.Ready to move on I will apply for LPN program and go that route and get experience and earn money while working on my RN I'm looking into private programs for community college in nyc you have to have A's in everything.My advice to anyone working full time is to take micro alone with no other classes it's a lot of work and difficult material

Thinking about changing my major it's too much.I want to do nursing it is my dream but this Professor it's really difficult I so enjoyed anatomy and physiology 1 the professor was great this one just gives u the material and says here u go figure it out it seems.I have made so many sacrifices to get here not seeing family aand friends as much it's very isolating,went from GED liberal arts did statistics,organic Chemistry 1 and 2 A&P 1.Worked my way from the bottom I don't know if I have it in me to pass anatomy 2 it is really hard I go to tutoring I did really well on the first exam but I hate the heart and the blood vessels it's very hard.I hate math she is making us count using the hemocytometer I don't get it I explained it to her doesn't care.I may withdraw and try again or just change my major I'm spent and done!She is going to drop one exam if it's bad but I don't even know if it's worth it to continue.Any advice or words of encouragement would be appreciated im at that point where I want to give up
