Its so hurtful when people around you, meant to help you, actually seem to want you to fail. In highschool my 11th grade math teacher told us that we shouldn't bother going to college b/c we would...

No my mother is not a nurse. I don't know any nurses personally so I haven't had one say any bad or good things about the profession. I am sure there are good days and bad days but I think that if you...

I have all of my paperwork ready for tomorrow. Hopefully, they don't ask me for something crazy! On another note, how do you do to stay firm in your decision to become a nurse? Have you ever doubted...

Cenote, Sorry to hear it hasn't gone quite well for you in the nursing field. But, for all of us, it is a dream come true. We decide to pursue this career quite aware of the hard task we have before...
Okay, I don't think charity will be the problem. Delgado is the problem!!! I have been there like 4 times allready and every time I go, they need another document. First, they needed the citizenship...
Kbuck504, Thanks, that's what I've been telling myself...that I have hope. I start DCC this fall and I'm taking Math 120 and Biology 141/143 (lab). I was told you have to at least finish A&P I...
Jenn06189, its difficult not to get stressed. Not getting accepted would be a huge failure for me. Especially since it would probably be b/c of my GPA. I read somewhere in this site that someone with...
Sorry about the message displayed twice...my phone was acting up. Okay, Math 120 is mathematics survey with applications and Math 128 is explorations in college algebra. Not sure which one to take....
If classes are that big, I can't imagine how many people apply. I was wondering if you could help me decide on my math class. I have to take either Math 120 or 128. I want to know which one could be a...

Thanks for the info. Wow! 230 students is a lot. Is that just for the spring class or both classes combined? Where in the westbank did you take the A&P labs? Just in case I get lucky enough to...
Just a question.... I have read that some people get in with 4.0 GPA's and some don't. that gives us, the 2.0 GPA's a slim to none chance of getting in. I am starting this fall at Delgado. I will be...
Thanks for the info. From the prerequisites you mentioned, it seems they require more than charity school of nursing. Gosh, it will take me longer to get into this program. But, I might give it a...
Hey guys! I will be 30 this July and I wanted to know what the process is for the nursing program at EJ. I wanted to do the charity school of nursing but I will have to wait and yet to get in until...
Congrats on your first semester completed! I thought about it again last night, and I just can't give up that easy. I usually have been the person that gives up, but now that I have a husband and two...
I have been giving this new career much thought. I have never wanted something as badly as I want to become an RN. I can't get over the fact that I waited till I am in my 30's to make this decision....
Its been 6 years since I graduated from UNO I have a lot of spider webs to dig out of my brain, but I trust that I just might succeed. since they have said there is a nurse shortage, do you think that...
Thanks for your positive thinking! I already have a student number and got most of my courses from UNO transferred, except 4 biology classes and one math. I heard that a lot of people change their...
