"anklebiters"... love it! And it's so right on the money too!!!!

I just started today. I am 44 and am in a class of about 120 people. By the rough count I made there's about 1 guy for every 5 women. Glad I'm in my 40's and have seen and done it all already. I don't think I could have handled it in my 20's!!!!

I'm 44 and I say amen to that. Seen it blow up in many friends' and coworkers' faces... not worth the drama!!!

Yeah craig, that's great! Never too late!!

Hey guys, this was in the NY Times today about men going into nursing. http://www.nytimes.com/2012/03/22/your-money/displaced-men-trade-blue-collar-jobs-for-nursing.html?ref=businessspecial5

LOL rockallnight really? Interior design? Do you get a lot of crap from your guy friends? I have at work, but I'm kind of used to it by now. I tell them all that someday I will be giving them a catheter and I'll remember all the s**t they gave me....

Good for you emarosa. It's great that you're young enough to know what you want to at that age. I certainly didn't. You'll have a nice long career in one of the fastest growing, most secure fields out there. What you may lack in life experience you'l...

Thanks smg. 5 posts, woot woot!!

Thanks smg... I think I did find it. It was "BHSN Technical 2012". Either that or the "BHSN Powderpuff 2012" one, and I'm pretty sure it wasn't that! Appreciate the help. p.s. you can PM after you've posted 15 times.

For you BHSN people, this is from the school's website as of today, 5/3/12: Is there a time limit on transferable courses? Science courses must not be older than 7 years. Exceptions to this will be considered on a case by case basis by the Admission...

I looked but only found "... 2011". I will look again today. A few more posts and I'll be able to PM.

May I ask, CT Pixie, WHERE you went to school? Was a CT CC program. I will be attending Bpt (BHSN) this fall. I may have 1 or 2 science classes that fall into this category. Does the "7 year rule" apply to when you BEGAN the program or when you G...

I'm 44 now. I started taking pre-reqs a few years back at a partnering CC. I got in for Fall 2012 at the local NS and it's a 2 yr program, so I'll be 46 when I get out. Like many of you, it's something I've thought of doing for a while and it's fi...

I can't PM yet, I'm a noobie to this site. I need like 10 more postings to get that privelige. I'll do it by next week then PM you. Thanks

Try again smg08009, not there as of midnight Wed...

p.s. for all you other 2012 male nurses (murses), this is a GREAT poster I got off this site!

Got my letter last week and brought the acceptance letter and $150 check(ouch) today IN PERSON to the school. I live just a mile away and didn't want to take any chances with it. Looking forward to seeing you guys this September. I have friends th...

F'ing awesome!!

I heard that the 2nd test today did not go well for a lot of people. What was the average?

Ok, what do you think of my situation? I posted this in another thread but that was for last year. Maybe this one is more appropriate. I've been taking courses part time the last 3 years at HCC, the same courses for the BHSN program. Have all but M...

really jdoll? they wait-listed you? if you don't mind me asking, what were your grades and teas like? i am debating applying early (like, now) or later in the semster (after the fall 2010 grades are posted). when you say you "waited until the end"......

OK, here's one for you guys. Let's get your input on this one.* *I've been taking courses part time the last 3 years at HCC, the same courses for the BHSN program. *Have all but Micro, Pub. Speaking, and Child Psych left (taking Micro&P.S. this s...

Move to West Haven, CT. It is one town next to New Haven, and there are plenty of rental units down by the water. In the summer there are lots of fairs and events. I lived there 5 years ago and had a huge 2 BR with a giant kitchen for $600/month. ...
