if graduate loans will go through - here's a thought: look for an msn program that accepts non-nursing ba students. i know ohio state has one, so maybe your local university does too. once you get...
You bring up a good point - with the cadavers, we don't get to do the dissection. I think there is a real learning opportunity in doing that yourself. We just see the results after someone else has...
My husband used to get up at 4am to do his homework before work officially started and then went to school in the evenings. We barely saw him. I was home all day and night with two babies, but...
Exactly, it's the preservative. The visual isn't exactly helpful when trying not to upchuck the bagel you crammed down during your 10 minute break either. We got a new recruit last week - it's more...
I work full time at a desk job and go to school (nursing pre-req's) evenings and weekends for now. When my kids were really little, I couldn't afford to work because daycare was so expensive. I...
I am in the same situation. I have re-prioritized my time. I spend much less time cleaning my house and with friends that aren't as important. I dont' always answer the phone or call a friend back...
You could research hospitals that offer tuition reimbursement and try to find a position in the hospital - even in non-clinical - that would pay your tuition. Our area is hit pretty hard with the...
How did your "rat" class go? Maybe I am not familiar enough with rats, but I would think they would be awfully small to learn from - especially in the hands and feet. That's hard enough on a human....
Me too! We had a "snow day" on Weds. I should have spent the day studying, but spent most of it watching NCIS re-runs on my DVR. I love those days when you never change out of your
Please update us on how it goes! I have my lab again tomorrow - and a lab practical exam. I will come prepared with vick's and a new appreciation for having cadavers and hopefully a full knowledge...
Thank you guys for making me laugh this week! It has definitely changed my perspective. I will go in thinking of cats, pigs and rats (oh my!) instead of my nauseated tummy! The elusive promises of...
Ours range from 3 to 4 years deceased. Maybe that's why they are so "icky"? So, if I try to stand really close to one of the guys, that will help with the smell? Or maybe that would send the wrong...
Thanks for your advice! Our school teaches a full quarter of anatomy and then does a full quarter of physiology. Maybe because of that division, they can do the cadavers? I don't know? I have heard...
