  3. What is with all the crying?

    escapebigd replied to Rick68fl's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I think crying is natural for women and (gasp) some men. I normally don't cry if I can help it because my body punishes me :/ (headache, runny nose, painful eyes). I do however find that shooting guns...

    escapebigd replied to ThePrincessBride's topic in General Students

    I think that since you've already asked for a meeting it would be a good idea to go to it if she offers. She may not "hate" you, but there is probably a definite difference in personality between the...

  9. CNA>LPN>RN or straight to ADN?

    escapebigd replied to I♥Scrubs's topic in General Students

  10. Anyone had to group interview to get into the nursing program?

    escapebigd replied to staceym's topic in General Students

    Sugarmag, I don't think they'll change it after this long though. I think I'm going to take EOL first semester as long as it doesn't interfere with the nursing classes schedule. I'm worried about...
