I just found out that I have a Class A Midemeanor for a Failure to Appear to court. Class A means that it is traffic court related. I had a court date during finals week (out of all times) and I did not go for obvious reasons for a ticket I had gotten for not making a complete stop earlier in the semester. I know people have gotten denied into nursing school because of a DUI, while this may not be as serious, it's still a misdemeanor!! I have talken with the director of the nursing program I am supposed to start in August and she says she doesn't have grounds to say whether or not I will get denied because really it's up to the facility at which I will be doing my clinicals. The director mentioned that it's not that serious, however, she said some facilities have gotten strict to where they don't except any charges. Can anyone shed light on my situation?

I just found out that I got accepted into their program for this upcoming fall and I wanted to know what is your schedule like? Are fridays busy days? How is the first semester? I have two little ones that need to finish preschool, and it sucks not knowing how we're all going to be able to go to school with a crazy schedule. Any other things you think I should know about LMC would be great, too.

I'm from California, and from what I've heard from everyone else is that it's heck of a lot harder to get in over here than pretty much any other state. I'm still waiting on one more school. I applied to five, one I did not qualify for because I didn't pass a waiver exam for a dosage calculations class, another I didn't even get on the waitlist because there was so many candidates, the other I was #78 out of 179 for their lottery and only the first twenty got in for sure, the other I was number #572 for their lottery out of 577 candidates for twenty spots as well. I am still waiting to hear from one school which has 44 spots for fall and I will know wednesday. It's very discouraging, especially since I've been going to school for so long, but I couldn't imagine doing anything else in the world. I think everyone's time will come at one point. We just have to expect the worst and hope for the best... I wish the best for you.

My best suggestion would be absolutely not. You would absolutely be putting your grades at risk. It's absolutely not worth it. A&P 1 shouldn't be too bad, but micro is extremely conceptual and if you don't understand what's going on, you will not pass the class.
