    Mother/ Wife/ Student

    lifelearningrn replied to RN-4Ever's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm a wife, mother and full time student. One thing that is absolutely necessary is your husband helping out and, quite honestly, doing more than his fair share. What you're doing is for the...

    lifelearningrn replied to lifelearningrn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Math is my Enemy..Ugh!

    lifelearningrn replied to Tricia76's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm not great at math either.. college algebra is my Achilles heal.. BUT- the math course you're taking sounds pretty doable. The key to math is practice. Do the homework. You need to understand the...

    lifelearningrn replied to jansarn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    We need to break down why you're continuously being rejected. 1. What is your GPA? 2. How many retakes, Fs, Ws do you have on your record, if any? 3. What grades do you have for the hard nursing...

    UTMB Fall 2011 Applicants

    lifelearningrn replied to chaos0058's topic in Texas Nursing

    Are you applying for straight BSN or an LVN-BSN bridge? I would thinking being an LVN would give you a leg up- or at least trump your first semester mishaps! How unforgiving. I have an F on my...

    UTMB Fall 2011 Applicants

    lifelearningrn replied to chaos0058's topic in Texas Nursing

    I'd be happy to get into either school. I live in Clear Lake and I think I'd prefer to commute to Galveston everyday instead of the Medical Center.. I really can see your dilemma. If you lived closer...

    There are a lot of apartments on the island.. price very much depending on location. Sometimes you can rent a condo cheaply- or even a beach house. Look outside the box.. There is something for...

    College Algebra or Statistics? Pre-Nursing.

    lifelearningrn replied to OnaTrek's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Highschool transcripts haunting me

    lifelearningrn replied to JLV5646's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It's weird how different schools can be. The schools around here, if you have 15 hours of college credit, they don't even bother with your HS transcripts (as long as you have a diploma/GED- they don't...

    How did your employer recognize Nurse's Day?

    lifelearningrn replied to allevi's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    I hope I don't offend any one here but what is the point of a nurses day? Or a secretaries day, office assistant day, or what whatever. Weren't these 'holidays' created to sell greetings cards?...

    Disappointing news, what can I do?

    lifelearningrn replied to WannabeNurse(:'s topic in General Nursing

    You're definitely too young to be a CNA. I don't even know if you're legal to work AT ALL (unless it's babysitting, family business, etc) I'm sorry you didn't get into the high school you were hoping...

    Worried about not having a 4.0? DONT!

    lifelearningrn replied to Student4_life's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What do you mean by that exactly, though? What pre-reqs are required at your ADN program compared to the BSN program? Again, I think it's a perception thing. A B.S. degree requires a lot of liberal...
