I'm starting my pre-reqs at either Saddleback or Golden West. I've been going to Golden West, but with all of the cutbacks in CC funding in CA, I'm going to go to the school that I can get a class in. I'm pretty far down on the 'seniority list.'

Like almost everyone else, I have to take Anatomy, Physiology, Micro before I can apply to nursing school. I took them all before -- 35 years ago! LOL So I need to take them again. 1. What order should I take them in? 2. Chem isn't required, but...

:) I talked with the head counselor this evening. She wants me to take Anatomy, Chem, Physiology, Micro, in that order. Too bad Anatomy and Physiology aren't offered as a combined two-semester course, but can't have everything, I guess. Again, tha...

THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR HELP!

Thanks for the info! And I'll talk with the counselor also.

:balloons: :balloons: CONGRATULATIONS, LADIES! MAY YOU ALL HAVE A GREAT, REWARDING CAREER!

Wow! All of this info is great! I'm going to print out this thread as soon as we're all done. Anyone else have any information? :)

Thanks, Angelica. I had no idea software like this and which could be dlownloaded into a handheld even existed. The sites you gave were great. Thanks again.

Angelica, can you tell me where you get all of these programs that you have on your Dell? I'm a little computer illiterate. Thanks.

I'm not even in nursing school yet, but I want to know how difficult it is (or isn't) for a newly graduated RN to get into the area of Hospice. That's my dream and goal. Did Hospice volunteer work for a few years and loved it. Anyone have informat...

Hi, Aimeee. Good to 'see' you. Thanks for the info. I have miles to go yet before I get there. But I'll get there. :) Thanks again.

Thanks! I interviewed a Hospice Case Manager yesterday, and she said, among many other helpful things, that I will need at least 1-2 years of acute care experience. I thought it would be necessary, and that's fine. Thanks again.

Hi, Jenn. I'm a Superior Court Clerk and a 3rd Order Franciscan. Tried to PM you and couldn't. You can contact me at [email protected]. Would love to talk with you.

At my school, all science pre-reqs -- Bio, Anatomy, Physiology, Chem for Health, Micro and Pharmocology -- must be 5 years or less. As for the rest of the prereqs, they had better not expire. I am locking into another AA in June. Good luck! Pleas...

I need to interview a nurse for a class paper. It's supposed to be an in-person interview, but I went to a hospital today and got just what I thought -- everyone is too busy and no one wants to make a future appointment (because they're too busy!). ...

I live in southern California. Have been in the Yellow Pages, on the phone and on the Internet for half the day -- and I can't find a school!! Is there some ischool 'SOMEWHERE" that just pops out CNAs -- but the BIG Mystery is to find out where it ...

Where do I get a catalog? Thanks.

The nursing school I want to attend is at a community college which I have never attended before. So, while I'm finishing up my AA at my local CC, I signed up for this class at the CC which has the nursing school. I have a list of looks-good-on-yo...

I got a message from my doctor today saying she wants to repeat a blood test Monday because my fibrinogen test came back "high unstable." Can someone please tell me what that means? For some reason, I find myself very concerned. I guess a "highly ...

Oh dear, thanks, MattsMom, all I need is another $1000 in bills. I'd rather go to Europe next Decmeber!! )

Yes, it is comforting to know that no one has died from doing them, and yes, I still want to be a nurse. However, the only oneswho HAVEN'T died from doing them are obviously the ones who have posted because they are obviously still alive. I'm sure ...

People, EVERY wanna-be nurse should HAVE to read this thread before applying to nursing school! Might REALLY cut down the waiting lists! :roll I want to throw up just reading this stuff!

Partly, Jenny, but mostly for the same reason you gave me for not answering mine right away: I was thinking about what to say. I appreciate your e-mail a lot, as I said, but I needed to think about it.

Mario :kiss What a sweetheart you are. Thanks! I'm going to be fine. It was just a little bit of a shocker. I've GOT to be fine. I look just GREAT! :roll And, yes, I do enjoy life. And I plan on enjoying nursing school -- when and IF I get i...

How GREAT! Good for you! :balloons: :balloons: :balloons: Bella
