  1. Too much?

    lifesacomedy replied to BiologyNerd's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Totally doable! Especially if you're working only part-time or have a job that allows you to focus on school. I'm taking 19 credits this semester. I don't have a lot of free time, but as long I...

    lifesacomedy replied to vetiver's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  3. Need A & P!

    lifesacomedy replied to Mamamischa's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  5. Older Students and Loans

    lifesacomedy replied to Tallulahbelle's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi there, I'm 27 and have just returned to school full-time. I am working part time nannying for one little girl, but that doesn't fully support our mortgage, car payments, prior student loans, or...

  6. Fall '07 Grades!! Be Proud!!

    lifesacomedy replied to modelmama07's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Not quite what I was hoping for, but it was also a very busy semester for me. We had to travel a lot (weddings, funerals, family visits). This next semester should be more calm and predictable....

  7. HESI pre-admission exam

    lifesacomedy replied to bubbley1021's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You need to check with your prospective school. I know that it is not waived for me. I have a BA (2002) and half of a Masters. Doesn't matter...I still have to take it. Luckily though, it's a...

    lifesacomedy posted a topic in Oregon Nursing

  11. Will this Schedule Work???

    lifesacomedy replied to lifesacomedy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you all for the feedback! It really helps to know that I can do it, but that it will be hard. I'm just glad to have seen someone pull it off with a similar schedule. A question for those that...

  12. Share why your current job sucks and what you hope will be different in nursing!

    lifesacomedy replied to WantAccel.BSN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I guess I just don't understand why veteran nurses are coming to this thread in the first place. This is open to all, and I value all opinions, but it is posted in the pre-nursing forum. We all...

  14. Will this Schedule Work???

    lifesacomedy replied to lifesacomedy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yeah, I've resigned myself to the fact that I am not going to have a social life when I am in school. My boyfriend is my number one priority, and he is very supportive. I make sure that no matter...

  16. NET exam info

    lifesacomedy replied to Nurse-One's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am wondering the same thing. I'll have to check in to see what the experienced ones tell you. I have to take the HESI on Jan. 8. I took it once already, before ever stepping into a pre-req and got...

  17. Question from a Soon-to-Be Student Nurse

    lifesacomedy replied to lifesacomedy's topic in Oregon Nursing

    By the way, where in AZ are you coming from? I moved up from Flag last year, just curious. Oh, and I forgot to ask...did you go through the programs at either NAU or CCC or elsewhere? Any opinions...

  18. Question from a Soon-to-Be Student Nurse

    lifesacomedy replied to lifesacomedy's topic in Oregon Nursing

    That's funny! Flagstaff, it is! The plan is still a couple of years away as I am about to start Nursing School, but Portland is where we've decided we want to be. Thanks for the comments too. I...

    lifesacomedy replied to reflex99's topic in Oregon Nursing

    Congratulations! You'll have to let me know how it goes. I also asked a question about moving to Portland (just previous to yours) and everyone was unresponsive. Aaah well. Perhaps you can my...

    Does no one have any advice for me? Did I word my question in a way that makes sense? Anything? Anything at all...I'm open...

  21. Great way to get experience for nursing students!

    lifesacomedy replied to RunnerLuv's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'll chime in here. Yes, many places allow the passing of meds for someone who isn't licensed. Most of these places are group homes or similar facilities. The staff undergoes a training and the...

    lifesacomedy replied to nurz2be's topic in General Nursing

    "My family thinks I'm nuts. My grandmother actually said to me at Thanksgiving that I'm overeducated to be a nurse. I'm trying not to let comments like that get me down about going into nursing. I...

  25. Where are all the Direct Entry students???

    lifesacomedy replied to Kensington's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Thank you for your response. That is kind of what I was afraid of. It makes me so wary, although more and more people do it every year. I wonder what kind of debt load one can reasonably carry...
