I am also working full time. I do volunteer. I work the info desk and once a month I volunteer in the pharmacy. Most allow you to set your hours.

Tex, I retired from the USAF in July of '05. I was a space geek. I am now getting my pre-nursing stuff out of way. There are more out there like you and I than you think. And I am a black male also. There are a few of us out there. My wife wor...

You aren't the only one. I am forty and am, for the most part, the oldest in my classes (oldest and only guy). My kids think it is great. I can sit at home and do homework with them.

MUSA, Memorial Hospital is located at 1400 E. Boulder St (Near Union). The north branch is located near the intersection of Briargate Parkway and Union.

We just paid off all our bills so I am quitting my good paying job to take a night job (full time) as a telemetry tech (more than halved my pay). The biggest think I am sacrificing is SLEEP.

Semisweetchick, To add to what is already been said. Memorial is opening up their new branch this year (in a few months). Some of the jobs are already posted in their web site. The new facility is called North. MUSA, Evens is at Ft Carson, here in...

I just retired from the US Air Force (17 months ago). While active, I was a space geek (worked with DOD satellites). I am now a Space Systems Engineer for a major company, doing the same thing I did while active. I have always wanted to go into on...

Michigangirl, I took my family to see it this last May, in Denver. My youngest was 12 at the time and she was fine. Only you can really speak for your child. Go with your gut. The exhibit, in my opinion, was very well done and in good taste. Not...

Trust me, it wouldn't be anything close to pretty. Hehe

Cathie, I just said that because I have heard some pretty ridiculous comments from students, like, “I don’t want anyone working on me that got below a 90 in this class.” :icon_roll Hehe. With my 80 in A&P I, I can name all the bones, muscl...

I am 6'2, 265 lbs and built like a linebacker. I thought of showing up at my pinning ceremony in a skirt and long blonde wig and just play along. I am not sure the wifey will let me though.

My wife and I are both nursing students. My wife thinks it is great that we will both be in the same field one day. She works in an emergency department in a hospital as a tech. All her friends (docs, nurses, and techs) think it is great that I am...

I have A&PII this semester. Don't hold this against me, but I barely made it through A&PI (Needed an 80, got an 80). Working 40 - 50 a week with three kiddos in three different sports really taxed me. But I made it. Our instructor is stri...

Hey all. I am 40 years old. From Ohio. Married to my high school sweet heart for twenty years now. Have three kids (17, 15, 13). Retired US Air Force (20 years 5 months 3 days 5 hours 26 minutes). Currently working as a satellite system enginee...

I am a tele/ecg tech and the Dale Dubin book is great. I bring it to work with me every night. Also, practice, practice, practice!!! I watched a cardio doc the other morning come in and read 128 twelve leads in less than 30 mins. The guy has been...

Congrats on the letter!!! Mom2J&B, my wifey and I are both 40 and in our prereqs. I am glad we aren't alone.

I got my loan through Citibank. It is at 3% and it was easy. It seemed that the finacial aid/admissions section of the college did most the work for me. I just filled out the app. Check with them at your respective school and see what they have a...

My A&P instructor also put pins in the muscles that we would be responsible for. Because our practical is on a cadaver, it will be hard to turn him over, all muscles for our muscle practical will be anterior. People still complained and had stu...

DofR, Hang in there and keep the lines open. My wifey and I are both prenursing. We both work full time jobs (me as an engineer, she as an ER/ED tech), but we manage. The key, I think, is that we talk a lot. After twenty years of marriage, we ...

My A&P instructor gave us everything that would be on the exams and practicals in the form of reviews and dvd lectures. We still had those that complained and asked, “Is this on the test?” Some just don’t get it.

Ed, Hang in there. I think we all feel the crunch at times. I work full time as a satellite engineer and am going to school 3/4 time at night. All I can say is, this is the busiest I have been. This semester has really put the screws to me. But l...

Another newb. I am a 40 year old, USAF retired, and am now ready to do what I want to do. I have the support of lovely wife (who happens to be a nurse) and my three teens. I hope to find myself in pediatrics when all is said and done.
