Nice to meet you too! Thanks for the reply! I am glad you can relate. I am actually about to go to work, retail sales right now. Still studying for the ACT. Do you know what score you have to make on the ACT to make it into nursing school? I am afraid of failure. I have always done great in school. Thanks again! Have a great day! :) ~Valerie~

hi fellow pre nurses, i am thinking about witch college or votech to go to? what are the good and bad about both? i heard that is usually easier through votech. you would probably get better salary if you went through a college and got an actually degree. am i right or wrong? does anyone know what actually salary you get if you have an associates degree before becoming a nurse? i want to just get it over. i already have to go parttime because i have a fulltime job and there is not enough time in the day for me to do both fulltime and that would be way to stressfull for me i think. props to anyone who is working fulltime and going to school fulltime!! i am thinking about going to a 2 year or 10 month program at a votech. i hope i get enough knowledge and onhand expenience to do good on the lpn licencing test. i hope to get in to nursing school!! i heard it is hard to get into from fellow coworkers. do you know how many tests you normally take during nursing school? what do you all think? please let me know, thanks. --val--

hello everyone! i am from norman, oklahoma. i am in my middle 20's trying to go back to school (lpn nursing school that is) then possibly rn school after i get on with a hospital. i have been out of college for 5 years and it is a little hard to go back. i have to get motivated to suceed. my parents do not want me to be a nurse. they think it is too dangerous of a career, might catch some kind of cauntagious sickness or disese. i want more than anything to be able to help people and have a better meaning in life. i want a great career that i can be proud of and other people will be proud of me. i know it is hard to get into nursing school, but i can do anything if i work hard and put my mind to it. i would love to make some new online friends, no matter where your from or what kind of nursing. let me know. where are you from? what is your current situation? i am studying for the act compass and about to take medical terminology and try to go to a votech probably. thanks for reading, please respond. :) ---v---

hey everyone, i am new here. i am very new to the idea of nursing. i was just wondering how hard is it to get into nursing school? what do you need to make on the act to be considered? i am having to take the compass test again since out of school for more than 5 years. does anyone have any suggestions on how to help inprove my chances of getting into nursing school? how soon do you need to apply for finacial aid or grants? do you know of any good free sites that help with getting money for school and study guides? please let me know. i will appreciate any and all input.:) --v--
