Oh girl stop stressing! I didn't even know that I for sure wanted to go for nursing until I was like 26! I had all my pre-reqs completed by the time I was 27 (I had completed some a few years before) and was ready to go and even got into a program bu...

I want to get my CNA this summer and have been looking into the private classes that can be finished in 3-6 weeks depending on the school, as most CNA programs as CC's fill up EXTREMELY fast. Does anyone have any experience with such programs as Kama...

Yes my first baby...and I won't be having another until I am finished with school and graduated! :) I supposed I will just have to adapt to less sleep and really take advantage of any "free time" when the baby is sleeping or not needing my attention,...

Thank you for your replies. Unfortunately I still need to work Fri and Sat but am hoping soon to not have to. My son takes 2 naps a day, one is when I am at school, as I don't usually get home until 1-2ish from class. Then he 'sometimes' takes a nap ...

congrats to you all! i applied to both spring and fall and was not accepted. the frustrating thing is this fall they only took 22, when they normally take 24 and i was 23 on the list!!! so close!!! the head of the dept said i may still be accepted i...

So I applied to my local CC's RN program for this Fall and it is a lottery. For some reason this quarter they are only taking 22 students (used to be 24) and I am #23 on the list!! The dept said if someone refuses their admission, the next on the lis...

Hello everyone! I am expecting my first baby at the end of December and finished all my nursing pre-req's Spring Qtr of this last year. I decided to post-pone my applications to nursing school for this current Fall b/c almost all the programs I was g...

Thank you everyone for your advice. I am just going to apply and see if I get in. It's a lottery system at the school that I would be applying to, so the chances are pretty low. I think I would regret not applying and just waiting til Fall and then p...

I am 5 months pregnant and would like to take the 3-5 week CNA course that a local facility provides in my area. I am wondering if being pregnant would hinder my ability to take the course? I know you have to assist moving patients and am not sure if...

Mi Vida Loca--thank you so much for your response. It help me put things into better perspective. I have decided to wait to apply. There is no sense in hurrying and even if I did apply for Fall, I might not get in...so I won't be behind or anything. ...

Thank you so much for your replies ladies. I am still having a hard time deciding what to do. The programs I have been looking into said I could take a quarter off to be with my child after delivering (I would take off Winter Qtr), but a spot back in...

I am currently awaiting my 'acceptance' letter from a few nursing schools that I have applied to, and I just found out I am pregnant (due date is about Jan 1st). I am unsure of what to do. If I do get accepted for Fall 2010, do I go until I have the ...

Our lab manual has really awful pictures of the veins and arteries of the body. Our textbook has diagrams, but I don't know how to study for them. I can't seem to find any blank diagrams to practice labeling. How did you all study for your practical ...

I have been reviewing questions online from study guides for the TEAS, but some of the math questions I forget how to do and I can't find help for the life of me. How do you solve weighted averages questions such as the following: At a certain hi...
