  1. Thank you both very much! I'll go look at the schedules up for the classes. Thanks again! I'm just starting my pre-reqs so I've got about a year before I can apply, but I'm just trying to be prepared....
  2. Unsure of what to do.

    I'm currently working on my pre-reqs for Nursing. I'm hoping to get in in early 2011, which means I'd graduate in 2013. Anyways. I wasn't sure if I should post this here, as it's concerning the job...
  3. Keeping Yourself Motivated...

    I have to agree that it's this site that mostly keeps me motivated - though I'm considering going to Build a Bear now for a reward for my 3.7 GPA this quarter. xD Sounds like a good reward to me!...
  4. When did you "Know" you wanted to be a nurse?

    I actually decided quite recently. I'm not like any of you "I knew when I was 12." I actually decided this a few weeks ago, after doing an intense set of research. I've been babysitting for over four...
  5. How to relax?

    I'm currently working on my pre-reqs and suddenly a huge load of personal family stress has just been dumped on my lap. I just finished spring quarter at my school and start summer quarter soon....
  6. I honestly don't know, either. I'm working on my pre-reqs and everything is covered by financial aid. Course, I'm paying for my CNA out of my own pocket, too... Best of luck resolving it!
  7. :3 I've taken a few online classes but am hoping to take most of my pre-reqs in person. Depends how it works with my schedule, of course. I'm hoping my CNA and stuff will help me really get in the...
  8. I'm currently working on my pre-reqs for Nursing, as I'm sure everyone else is here too. I'm hoping to get in in early 2011. Anyways. I wasn't sure if I should post this here, as it's concerning the...
  9. Thanks, guys. =) It was reassuring. There's a residency near my house that is NICU-based, and they equate it to a year's worth of NICU experience. They hire based on it, too. At least it'd be a foot...
  10. Signing up for my CNA class today!

    My class starts August 10th, and goes until late August/Early September. =3 It was recommended to me by an RN friend of mine who has 26 years experience in Peds. xD She knows the owner. =3 I may or...
  11. When did you know what specialty you wanted?

    I want to go into NICU. =3 That's the reason I'm going into nursing. I don't as much like the adults that can whine and complain, but I do love babies and always have. I'm currently doing my pre-reqs,...
  12. Signing up for my CNA class today!

    I signed up for my CNA class two weeks ago, and it doesn't start until August. =3 Which is good, because I'm doing some pre-reqs for summer quarter. I'm really excited too - my mom and I (I live at...
  13. I'm up in Washington, and mostly looking at Clark College's ADN program. They look at the cumulative GPA of all your pre-reqs, but nothing more then that, I think. It's an odd point system; just...
  14. I agree with Seyma - you'll definitely need to look into the colleges around you. I'm working on my pre-reqs myself, and my college goes on a point system. It only looks at your pre-req classes to...
  15. HESI Entrance Exam

    Thank you very much!
  16. HESI Entrance Exam

    If you guys don't mind me asking, where can I find a HESI study guide? My college recently switched to that program and know practically nothing about it. I'd like to know a bit about it so I can...
  17. Mid-college crisis? or enlightenment?

    I'm working on my pre-reqs myself, so I'm not the most knowledgeable person, but I will share my opinion. My family hasn't always discriminated against Nursing (it's what my mother has always wanted...
  18. -nods- I agree with MurseHarley. LPNs don't give you nearly the advancement opportunities that, say, an accelerated BSN program or MSN program would give you. RNs will always be in demand. =) Good...
  19. im lost

    I really had no choice to get my CNA - for my Nursing Program, it's required. So double-check to look into the requirements for your school about whether or not a CNA certification is required.
  20. While I'm not yet in Nursing School myself, I believe there are Accelerated MSN programs that are specifically made for people that have Bachelor's degrees in other areas. Good luck with whatever you...
