  1. What a terrible way to start off the new year

    I am your age (will be 24 in May) and I feel the same way sometimes. On here I read about many students who are in their 30s and 40s and it sets me back into place--in fact I see people younger than...
  2. Trying to make it through until nursing school....

    I too am a second degree student working full-time while taking pre-reqs. I'm planning on starting the Nursing Program in Spring 2010. I have to continue working at my job, however, until I am DONE...
  3. Paying for nursing school

    I am in the EXACT same boat as you. I am going to do the ADN first and pay for everything out of pocket. Then I will do a RN-BSN program immediately after graduation. It will take a semester or two...
  4. Working and Nursing courses

    Whoever said Wal-Mart and the like are inflexible may speak of his/her local Walmart but I work for a privately owned business in Walmart (we lease the space from Walmart in the front of the store, I...
  5. Spring 2010 Hopefuls!

    a- ccc adn program-> bsn -> md program b- ccc adn program-> bsn -> ap nursing
  6. 41 and going into NURSING? HELP

    Well, as a younger adult I can reassure you on this end that there are plenty of people in the programs who are in their 30s, 40s, and 50s. When I went to my university there was a guy who was over...
  7. my husband....the jerk......sorry this is a rant :)

    My ex-fiance/boyfriend still is equally unsupportive. I feel for you. If you're like me, you need him for the time being. My advice, get your ducks in a row, get help wherever you can and just...
  8. any non traditional students here?

    Even though I am young, 23, I am technically a "non-traditional student." I got my B.A. (cum laude w/disciplinary honors) a year ago from a local university so backtrekking down into the community...
  9. what are you doing over the break?

    The Winter break nicely corresponded to my one year anniversary at my job so I have two weeks paid vacation during break. I went to Minnesota (from NC) to see my entire extended family and let them...
  10. Spring 2009 Classes

    Maybe it's a bit early, but I am curious as to what classes everyone is planning on taking next semester. For me: Anatomy and Physiology II Microbiology
  11. New Grad Question

    Hypothetically, if someone were to fund their nursing school education with loans from a hospital and then begin working there--would it be "wrong" to request a certain block of time say (three hours...
  12. Lets Vent!!!!!!!!

    I have a vent for the day. Even though I have an A in A&P I (pretty much no chance of losing that since my exam grades have been 96, 97, 95, 94 and today's couldn't be no less than 93)...I barely...
  13. Nurse or Hairstylist?

    Firstly, I can say that the economy is playing a role in my beauty. I seriously need to get my hair trimmed AND highlighted--but we've been cut back to 36 hours a week at the bank and boom, there...
  14. HELP! I got dismissed from my nursing school

    Well good luck with your case! Keep us
  15. Why is it everyone I know wants to talk me out of nursing???

    I'm a mom of a toddler, who I love love love, and plan on having another one before I start nursing school in a year and a half--so my child will be about 3-4 mos old. I have to get a degree (I...
  16. HELP! I got dismissed from my nursing school

    I agree with you that one, isolated incident of being tired does not warrant your dismissal. Perhaps the way you behaved subsequently is what prompted your dismissal--but not having been there I...
  17. **(( How long do Pre-q classes take usually?? ))**

    Look into the school's you are interested and see what their pre-reqs are. Without knowing what you need and how much of a courseload you can take on it is difficult for us to guestimate how long it...
  18. New Grad Question

    Well obviously I'm not going to be working 24/7 days a week. I guess my point could be summarized as: Would it be too terribly inconvenient for me to request nights (or afternoon shifts--just not...
  19. Need a little uplifting!

    Are you taking any financial aid out for living expenses? This may decrease your need to work 40 hours a week. When I was eligible for fin. aid (while I was working towards my B.A., now that I have...
  20. RN or RN to BSN? And night classes? Day jobs?

    Even with training for APN, students are usually licensed as RNs for several years before completing their APN training. Meaning, if I am accepted into my AE MSN program, I will be an RN long before...
  21. RN or RN to BSN? And night classes? Day jobs?

    I also have a B.A. and have way too many hours to qualify for financial aid once I actually start the program. What I am doing is going to apply for everything ADN, BSN and MSN (for people have...
  22. Rank your classes!

    That is exactly what my lab coordinator did for the rediculous lab I was talking about. ONLY one student got an A. Everyone was downscaled from there so I was making Bs and Cs, when I should've been...

    English I 1 English II 1 A&P I 3 Intro to Psych 1 Dev Psych 1 Nutrition 4 (there was way too much work for my class-- rediculous,...
  25. Cost of living

    RNs start off around 18-21 per hour, so based on what they start off in NJ you might be able to make an assessment of what an RN with experience would make in NC. Well the best hospitals by my...
