My advice if its worth anything at all is DON'T DO IT!!! Stay in your job. As a previous poster stated, the grass is always greener!

Its hard to go back, but never too late! I am in the nursing program at Baker and I am 42. Study habits are hard to form with little ones but it can be done! Just work hard and balance your family life with study time and you will be fine!

My Simple Plan, I have read several of your posts and I must say, you are one of the most motivational people I have ever seen! Nursing School is so tough and it helps struggling students to hear from someone like you telling them they can do it. S...

I certainly wouldn't move here right now!

Well said, I think Gemberly will make a wonderful nurse because of her past experiences.

I am just a student, not working in the hospitals yet, but I can tell you what I have heard. Many nurses that would usually be retiring are staying put because their spouses have auto related jobs. The uncertainty in the automotive industry is forc...

Can you please tell me what your secret is? I am in my first semester and have been putting in at least thirty hours a week of studying outside of class. I feel so guilty because I am not spending anytime with my family. We haven't got our first t...

Hi Everyone, Just thought I would start a thread for all of us awaiting letters from Baker for Spring/2009. Maybe we can all support each other while we are waiting and share any information that we "have heard" that may be helpful!

I know how you are feeling. I don't know why, but I just have this feeling you will be getting called. The deadline for people to turn it paper work is March 16th. The letter states if it is not turned in they will give your seat in the program to...

My point was I think she is getting in!

Depending on where you are located, I have the study guide I can sell you. Its $32 new I would sell for $15.

Well, if they get to 44 this time you would be in

I agree, I think this economy is so bad right now there may be people that just can't afford to quit their jobs for nursing school. As I said before Gem, I know of one person for sure that is declining. That would mean there are 4 ahead of you

I will go to Baker because it is quicker. I will start the program in April and will graduate in December, 2010

I would say that you have an excellent chance of getting in! Good Luck to You!!!

If you ask me, it is too important to leave it to chance. The deadline is Feb.15. I would go there in person and turn in another application. I won't hurt. It would be terrible if you worked this hard and scored that high on your Hesi, to find ou...

I didn't get in last year, but when I received my letter they tell you your ranking. My GPA was 4.0 and I only scored a 82 on the Hesi. I ranked #375 out of 760.

Gem, I can't tell you how badly I feel about this. I have been talking to you for quite some time now and you are very impressive. I can't even imagine what the cutoff is this time. I thought for sure you would be in with that extra point. Please...

Im innnnnn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I see the mail truck! I will know in five minutes if my life is over!!! SOOO nervous

If you dont mind my asking what does the letter say. does it start with Congratulations. Does it give any information at all on what the cutoff was or say anything about upcoming orientation

Let's not have any restraining orders slapped on us today!

Hi everyone, As you know, the letters should be in our mailboxes today! Am I the only really stressed out one? I doubt it. Good Luck to everyone waiting, and please post on here when you open your letter. Thanks.

Congratulations!!!!

Good Luck to you! 23.08 points is great!
