Does anyone know where I can take inexpensive or free CNA classes in the NY area?

And they certainly FAIL to keep celibate, which was my point

I've been on this site for a couple of months and asked many legitimate questions! I didn't find a similar thread so I made one, is that a crime now?

So from what I understand, it's okay for a nurse to have sex with a patient, as long as it's not her/his patient?

why Sundays?

I like Nurse Jackie better!

I read on the forum that while it's forbidden for a nurse to have sex with their patient, I haven't seen anything about having sex with other nurses, doctors, visitors, etc. Does it actually happen as often as it does on TV shows? Not asking whether it's wrong or not, just whether it happens.

What's wrong with Hunter's nursing program?

I got a D in the class. I looked at my graded final, and was amazed at how easy were the questions that I didn't even answer. Even though I don't need this class for nursing, I think I'm going to retake it. Who knows? In the future I might need a good GPA for some program, and I'll at least be able to point out that I had the determination to learn from my mistake and fix it as much as I could, instead of giving up.

That's why I'm so worried - the college office where I could get the answers to the grading policy questions was already closed after I was done with the final, and the whole college is closed until Monday. I guess you're right... What's done is done, and I should apply to a couple of programs instead of putting all my eggs in one basket. I have one year worth of credits left to show improvement, and this horrible setback should give me the incentive to do it, not a reason to give up.........

I was taking a science summer course unrelated to the nursing prerequisites. I was doing well, but I completely bombed the final! I just went completely blank after studying for 10 hours straight right before the exam. My final grade is going to be in the 71-75 range AT BEST. Maybe I'll receive a failing grade, I don't know... I never did so bad in a class before in my entire life! My GPA was always above 3.7, both in HS and college... The nursing program I was very set on getting into accepts applicants that have a GPA of about 3.7... many have perfect or near-perfect GPAs... I'm so devastated! Is this one summer course going to ruin everything? It's almost 3am and I can't go to sleep...

Wow, thanks for your insight!!!

Has anyone done it? How did you manage your pre-reqs? Did you go on a program that was related to nursing or no?

Do nursing students get to do research like pre-med students do? Would it be likely for me to get a research position with my nursing pre-reqs even though there will be students with "harder" science courses under their belts? I know that some nursing students have research classes, but what about the BSN students who go through a pre-nursing stage for the first two years of their undergrad? I'm sorry if this is common knowledge...

Hi! I already made this thread in the "General" section a couple of days ago, but it received no answers, and after finding this sub-forum, I thought I might have better luck here! I hope I'm not violating any rules in doing this... I'm looking into different nursing schools right now, and the Hunter program looks quite interesting, especially if you consider the price. Yes, it's very competitive; that's what I found out by searching this forum. But what about its quality? How does it compare to NYU? Would this program be a good preparation for graduate studies? In other words, how competitive will this degree make me compared to graduates of other schools?

Hey guys! I hope I'm not too annoying for bumping up this thread!
