  1. Any ABQ Apollo college students out there?

    I will be starting my first semester on June 7th and had a couple of questions I had left unanswered by staff... Where are most of the clinical sites at? Have you heard about or used the job placement program? If so how helpful was it? Mainly I'm jus...
  2. Am I the only one?

    A&P really kicks my butt... I normally can focus and study hard enough to get a b or c on my tests but the 3rd week into A&P2 I am failing.... Its the heart chapter that really has me at my witts end... I have tried videos, songs, and reading...
  3. I attend a private nursing school.. so no matter what semester I am in, I consider my self a "nursing student."
  4. Im gonna have to do it.....

    Since I started nursing school I have been dealing with heart ache... 2 weeks before my actual start, I lost my 21 year old brother, and 2 weeks before the end of that same semester I lost my nephew... everybody kept on aksing me how I was still goin...
  5. Irritating Classmates

    You know what I love the most is when we are talking about sex, breastfeeding, bodily fluids, or anything that has to do with nursing, all the immature (shouldnt even be in nursing school) girls in my class either snicker, get all red in the face, or...
  6. Koi Scrubs

    Love them !! hate the price! lol
  7. First semester of clinical made me change my mind

    I think that one of the biggest problems would be your lack of passion for the nursing career. While I don't ever agree with someone soley in nursing for the security and salary, I still have to agree with the other posters when they say to not judge...
  8. I guess what bugs me more about those schools, or any school for that matter is the people who are doing it for the money... If you are doing it for the pure passion of helping others then fine... but the people who are in there for the money really ...
  9. Annoyed by nursing commerical they keep running

    YES!!!! Very well said!!!
  10. How do you stay sexy in nursing school

    I really don't feel feminine lately, I was just thinking this the other day. But I will live... Right now my main concern is getting through nursing school while still raising two boys and being there for my husband... While there are girls in my cl...
  11. Annoyed by nursing commerical they keep running

    I think that the idea of the commercial acknowledging what nurses do is a great one. however they may have not executed it perfectly. It some what seems like they are advertising the nursing career, and no there is not a real shortage. I think what b...
  12. Share your story here!

    I just thought it would be fun to share our stories of what really really made us want to become nurses. I will start with mine. I remember as far back as 5 years old always making sure everybody in my family was ok while they were sick. As soon as I...
  13. After reading the thread from the nurse manager, I can honestly say I am discouraged about becoming a nurse... I am one who has ALWAYS ALWAYS wanted to be a nurse, I have never really had a passion for anything else... kinda sucks to know that there ...
  14. well, I can say I am officially discouraged...

    Thanks guys you are right! I guess I was just in a mood after reading the thread. It just seemed soo negative. I live in NM and am totally willing to move to find a job. My family and I have been talking about moving to Denver. I will have to look in...
  15. I was just reading some posts on the nursing "shortage" and became extremely down...I really really want to be a nurse and not for the money...Its all I have ever thought I would become when I was a child! So I live in New Mexico and know that there ...
  16. Apollo College RN Program

    Well the way I look at it is...It would take me 4+years at a community college for just an associates and I can get my ADN in just 2 years at a private school. Which means that I will be working 2 years earlier than I would if I had gone to community...
  17. Apollo College RN Program

    It does not have to be paid before being accepted. But the semester your starting must be paid before starting it. You can get federal loans. I was able to pay for mine with pelle grants and federal loans. I was really nervous that I would not be abl...
  18. Apollo College RN Program

    i attend Carrington college (apollo college) the reason they changed the name was, because they were bought by another company and are expanding. Since uneducated people spread rumors about the school, the marketing team thought it would be a good id...
  19. The HRSA Nursing Scholarship

    same here.. im in NM though. Before coming on this site and reading all of these people who have analysts I was optimistic, but now that i havent received one email and dont have a clue who is who, Im pretty sure i didnt get it. Oh well though I will...

  23. The HRSA Nursing Scholarship

    Wow after reading all of these posts I dont think i have a chance in the least bit.... I dont even know who the hell my analyst is... not sure if thats a big deal or not. I do know that i met the income guidelines and am in nursing school right now ...
