  8. The Nursing Math Thread

    National League for Nursing - Testing Services for the PAX. Apparently it's the dead time year. There is only one PA location listed. There were more options back in Nov. - April. The NLN test...
  15. ROTFL! This thread really got hostile for a while there. If people get their ADRN, they might just get a job with it, and even if they don't it's a short hop via online degree to get the BSRN,...

  17. Sharon Regional 2010 - Who's accepted? Still waiting?

  22. Fall 2010 Class Schedule: Is it too much?

    A&P is a lot of rote memorization. You can start now to teach yourself, because that's really what you do in A&P, anyway. It's not a spectator sport. You dig into the book and memorize...

    I dunno. Whatever happened to get your education(s), get your careers established, put some money in the bank, THEN have a baby. Personally, I'd not handicap myself with pregnancy and childcare...
