   EricaB replied to cityof_wonder's topic in Illinois

   I am going the Monday AM meeting, and I'm pretty excited about it. I bought the book on Thursday, and I've gotten about half way through it. It does seem like a good book to read. There was a girl at the bookstore who is going into her second year...

   I registered, too! I got Patho Mon morning, 110 &111 Tues Morning, Micro Mon and Wed @ 1, and then 112 lab tues at 1, and clinicals at SAMC Fri 7-2. I wish I could have taken micro or patho over the summer, but I have a vacation planned the fi...

   Hi Jessicuy! I think they look at a lot of things, just your GPA and NLN aren't the only things they look at. I have a 2.5 GPA currently (due to some completely non-related classes a few years ago that I goofed because of working two jobs and my pr...

   I think I read some old posts where everyone kind of registers together, I will try e-mailing my friend in the program and ask her. They extended the deadline though, so I would think any meetings would be after all the program spots have been fille...

   Yay, I got my letter today! I went to an info meeting last month, and they didn't give out a mock schedule....I asked about it and the lady said it would be all over the place. So I hope it hasn't changed, but that sounds reasonable to me.

   EricaB replied to cityof_wonder's topic in Illinois

   Yeah, I'm not looking forward to having to take Micro along with Patho the first semester....but I didn't want to have to mess with any of the other classes. I want to be able to focuse just on my nursing classes. I am taking Basic Pharmacology thi...

   Thanks for the tip! I'll definitely remember that!! I was really nervous up until last week because I'm married and working full time, and just wasn't sure how everything would work time-wise and financially. But my In-law's offered to give us thei...

    EricaB replied to cityof_wonder's topic in Illinois

    Congrats to you, too! Yeah, I wish I could take Micro this summer, but I wasn't originally planning to apply for Fall and my husband and I planned a long-overdue vacation the first week of June. But I already have Psych 228 and all of the other supp...

14. CNA class starts next week!!

    EricaB replied to prisicruz's topic in CNA/MA

    I start my class in a few weeks, and I completely see where you are coming from. I wanted to do this, but talked myself out of it because bills and life just got in the way, and I never thought I'd be able to pay for school, and still have a roof ov...

    I am about to start my CNA program at the end of this month, and I've been doing a lot of reading. And I have prior experience working in boarding home for senior citizens that was owned by my grandmother. I was not certified, nor did I have any real...
