  1. Newborn while in nursing school?

    Here are my thoughts. I wouldn't have a newborn at any point during nursing school. While finishing your pre-req's, yes, maybe, but not during Nursing school. I had my daughter last year in...
  2. Just wanted to add... And for the record, I have NEVER heard of you having to buy your own scantrons either. I would certainly make sure that girl give you one back...and well before the last test...
  3. thrown off track....

    I found out I was pregnant between Semesters in the Winter of 2004. I went to school that following spring and took two online courses the following fall (when my daughter was born). I wasn't...
  4. Are we all old???

    I couldn't agree with you more. I feel that I am much more prepared at 30 now than I would have been right out of high school. I look at my grades now compared to what they were in high school and...
  5. Was I mean?

    Sounds like she's trying to get through without having to do much. I work full-time and have a 1 year old daughter, but still make it to class EVERY single night I have to be
  6. Tuition Prices

    Ours here in Illinois is $62.95/credit hour + the cost of books. It has increased a few times. I think when I started in 2004, for residents it was around $52/credit hour or something like
  7. I may be a bit oldschool. I have a hard time retaining information by just reading, so I have found that if I actually make flash cards w/ index cards, that helps me...and also with those, I can have...
  8. Getting a Spouse's Support

    I am not in this exact situation. I am lucky enough to have my work reimburse me 100% if I get a C or better. I agree that it will be worth it in the end, but I do have a husband who also freaks out...
  9. Are we all old???

    I had taken the test last December and I will say I thought the problems in the book were harder than the problems on the test, but if you know how to solve the ones in the book, you should do well....
  10. Are we all old???

    :rotfl: :chuckle :roll Ok, so funny, but isn't it so true??:rotfl: :chuckle
  11. I work full time and have the entire time I worked on my pre-reqs. I have 2 left...the one I'm taking now and the one I'll be taking next semester. And then all I have are the nursing courses. I...
  12. Are we all old???

    Hey there! I am Lori and I am 30. I have a FT job and I also have a 1 year old dd, Amelia. I am just about done with all of my classes and ready to begin my Nursing program (hopefully) next fall....
  13. Are schools really this unhelpful?

    Oh, I am not surprised!! I usually don't get a return call until I leave another message saying I had called several times and never received a call back...then they jump right on it and call you...
  14. Any Class of 2010's??????

    So with you on the wanting to quit your job thing. How much easier would that be? But at this point, it would just be stupid for me. I have 2 classes left (one of which I am taking now) other than...
  15. Did not get in

    Best of luck to you!! So glad you are at ease with
  16. a month away from applying

    I'll be taking the NLN pre-entrance exam in the beginning of november. I am a bit freaked out, but your studying and that is all you can do!! I am trying to, but with my 1 year old, it's not too...
  17. Disrespectful to instructor....

    Oh yes...I have seen this too and I cannot stand it. I think your instructor handled it well in the end telling them to see her after class if they had any
  18. Money & Nursing

    Hey there! I'm not too sure about that...maybe it depends on what state you are in? I am in Illinois and I work for a company that pays 100% of tuition and books. But I am not aware of a particular...
  19. Hi everone, I'm new

    Hi there!! :groupwelcome: My name is Lori and I have been going to school since the Summer semester of 2004 taking 2 classes at a time. I, too, have a 1 year old!! My dd Amelia was born last...
  20. Anyone going to CLC (College of Lake County)

    Can you tell me, what exactly is the process? I know you have to get the higher percentage on the NLN test, but what else? Paperwork? Interview? I have to go to that informational thing again...
  21. A Really Big Decision

    If you know deep down that you want to switch to Nursing as a Major and you are only 1 month into your first semester, now would be the time to change!! Your not too far in. But your right...just...
  22. considering dropping one...

    Rebecca, you need to do what is best for you and your grades. If it is too much (and those are two hard classes to take at the same time! If you need to drop, I say do it. You know what's best for...
  23. Anyone going to CLC (College of Lake County)

    Jaylene, you can email me at [email protected] and then I'll give you me main email from there!! Who do you have for
  24. Disrespectful to instructor....

    I agree...we need to thank them when all is said and done, but those who are rude and stressed out because they don't want to learn new things, what are they going to school for? Don't you go to...
  25. Failure

    I have to say that more than likely the reason you are feeling this way is because others are putting it into your head. Have faith in yourself. You graduated from High School early!! And don't let...
