I went back to school at 28. The journey was long and at time frustrating but now I appreciate what the degree and knowledge is providing for my family. Now at 32, I am a witness to my children and the people that I encounter in my life's journey, t...

Took my dh to urgent care on Tuesday, stayed there for 4 hours and they tell us to go to the ED to get further examination because they can't determine why my dh has the sweats, fever and vomiting. Go to the ED, the nurse intern (God Bless Her) pick...

I have worked in enough schools (med school and a university) to let you know that there is a high probability that you will get in. I currently work as a recruiter for a PA program and we sent out acceptance letters recently. Out of the 35 slots w...

I am married with 5 children and work full time and attend school full time. A big part of it is your study style. I am not one to go home an study for an ungodly amount of hours. If I don't get in in lecture or clinical, I will review my books. ...

I have given birth to 3 boys and all of them were circed. My dh is not circed. No opinion here. Unless you have some religious beliefs that encourage circs, go ahead. My dh was the first person I have been intimate with that wasn't and I see no d...

Algebra is not hard! Know the formulas, order of operations, ect., and you can answer any question that is presented to you. The same holds true with chemistry. Don't try to remember minute details, know your formulas, dimensional analysis and ru...

LDRP first and foremost! I haven't started clinicals yet (next month) but I entered nursing school with such a love of my labor and birth experience. I want other women to have the wonderful/not so wonderful experiences that I had. I have 3 childre...

OH MY!!! I start working on my papers the night before! I am not a procrastinator, I write better papers when I am under pressure. This works for a paper under 10 pages mind you. I always have recieved A's on my papers. This semester alone I have...

I almost completely agree that it was the traditional student that caused all of the comotion in my lectures. Getting to know my classmates, I did find that it was the non-traditional students "like me" that waltzed in late to class. Commuting is a...

I know what you mean. I can remember last semester in Micro. I always sit in the second row. We were in a lecture hall (seated about 200) and these 3 girls always sat behind me. It was bad enough that the class was at 8 am. These 18-something gir...

Just to see how everyone did this semester. A Intro to Theo B Pharmocotheraputics for Nursing Practice AB Clinical Nurtition A Dimensions of Professional Nursing With all of the drama that happened in my household, I pulled thoes grades out of ...

Try another school! I know that it is discouraging. Nursing programs are so competitive right now. Don't put all of your faith into one school. You might want to try a private college. They usually (i stress usually) don't have waiting list but t...

I have to tell you this story. I was struggling in Pharm, not really struggling but not getting the grade that I wanted. Ok, 2 hours before the final and I estimated how many questions I needed to get wrong before I lowered my grade, raised my gra...

Ditto what robin1970 said. I am not a single mother (married one year this coming thursday). I just didn't put time limits on myself. I was a single mother of 3 for 7 years with my children. When my dh came along, it only added to the household b...

Have you tried going through your school's library access. Generally they will have a paid subscription for their students. Otherwise try CINAL. You may not get the full text of the article, but your library may have that particular journal on the...

Actually, I am past the pre-reqs and am into my major classes. I don't look at it as a challenge or overwhelming. I go into the classes knowing that I will pass. I don't feel bad when I don't get an A in a specific course, because I know I did my ...
