   SLS7533 replied to MovingRN's topic in Colorado Nursing

   I live in Colorado Springs. I moved out here 3 years ago from Maryland, right outside DC. I do not care much for this area. It's very pretty and the weather is nice and there are lots of hiking...

   SLS7533 replied to AK2282's topic in Colorado Nursing

   Bekindtokittens--I did attend the info session on Monday night. I got a copy of the review sheet for the Bio 090 placement test, so I need to bone up on that and see if I can place out of the class. I...

3. Why did you take up nursing? What's your story?

   SLS7533 replied to Joe V's topic in General Nursing

   I am just beginning the pre-req process for nursing school so I'm not there yet, but the science of it all is what is drawing me to the profession. I used to work as a veterinary technician and since...

4. Help choosing classes at PPCC

   SLS7533 replied to robynv's topic in Colorado Nursing

   I will let you know. I was just looking at the catalog and I see that I can take Bio 090 on the late start semester (although I can't find an exact date of when that is) so maybe I can get into that...

   Hey Robyn. I plan on taking A&P 1 and Human Growth and Development this summer and then A&P 2 and Micro in the fall. That's provided I get permission to skip Bio090. But as I last took...

   SLS7533 replied to AK2282's topic in Colorado Nursing

9. Does anyone else like working night shift besides me?

   SLS7533 replied to Joyfullme's topic in General Nursing

   How does the night shift effect your relationships? Are you always on that schedule even when you're off? Or are you able to spend time with your family and friends during your days off without it...

    SLS7533 replied to AK2282's topic in Colorado Nursing

    So, they're running two a year? One fall, one spring? That's encouraging. Now that my mind's made up I want to get going and am not overly enthused by the wait. But I have to get my prereqs and saw...

11. PPCC Wait List

    SLS7533 replied to SLS7533's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Thanks for you help! I am going to be attending the meeting on the 21st. It's too bad you can't apply to the wait list and then complete prereqs . . . it wouldn't seem like waiting then. Although I...
