    Dottie78 replied to alliestar's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I wish you the best of luck! All I can say is please don't give up your dream. If you do, you will regret it. It will be hard at times, but in the end, it will all be worth it, and you will not...

  2. Age you will/were graduated?

    Dottie78 replied to sweetiez's topic in General Students

    I'll start the RN program in Aug. 08, so I'll be 32 when I graduate. BTW, I'm very surprised to see a lot of people older than me graduating. (I don't feel so bad now.) Good luck to everyone!

  4. Does anyone regret becoming an LPN?

    Dottie78 replied to wefdm21's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    It depends on your life/work situation. Some say they feel it was a good choice to become an LVN, and some say to just go straight to RN. I was planning to go to school for LVN until I read some of...

    Dottie78 replied to aliciajeakin's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

  6. Why choose LPN?

    Dottie78 replied to checkmate's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Dottie78 replied to texasnurse08's topic in Texas Nursing

  9. My teacher is giving me bad compliments

    Dottie78 replied to ari3sdog's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I'm not even a nursing student yet, but from reading your post and all the replies, try not to let this instructor discourage you. And WHY are you still involved with this instructor if you've already...

  10. nurses backstab fellow nurses

    Dottie78 replied to tokkii girl's topic in Texas Nursing

    I don't believe all nurses are "out to get you", but pretty much anywhere you work, in any profession, there will usually be that one or a few who you won't get along with. Don't let that comment...

  11. Career Change

    Dottie78 replied to kaybug's topic in Texas Nursing
