    NurseJeanB replied to Mykdgirl54's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  9. CSUEB anyone?

    NurseJeanB replied to Hotflashn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  17. Quit nursing school?

    NurseJeanB replied to wellhereiam's topic in General Students

    Gosh, see I didn't even address the major issue in my earlier post. Your feelings like you no longer care, and having thoughts of suicide are very serious and could indicate you are having depression....

  18. Quit nursing school?

    NurseJeanB replied to wellhereiam's topic in General Students

    You sound like you are very methodical and have spent a lot of time thinking over this. One thing I can say is that I was like you in that I am pretty book smart, but never had any medical background...

    NurseJeanB replied to Sandy_dfw's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Ditto, I am 40 and by the time I graduate I will be... gulp 42. This is my second career, but I am loving it. I am a much better student now. And the people who are teaching are all older than I am,...

    NurseJeanB replied to tgal-RN-to-be's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    So sorry. That is terrible. That is one of the biggest complaints of nursing students is that so many wonderful, qualified, people get denied. I will keep my fingers crossed on the other schools....

    NurseJeanB replied to dtermineddenise's topic in General Students

    I think that is just the way it is in nursing school. So much information, so little time. When you are studying with your study partner (the one who does so well) pay attention on what they focus in...
