  3. Acceptance letters for Shelton state fall 2011

    Teaton, that's great! We're so lucky to have supportive husbands. It will be difficult for us to balance school and family, but so worth it. I learned how to study wherever, and whenever I had the...
  4. How to NOT gain weight in Nursing School??

    I'm very concerned about this as well. I lost about 25lbs last summer before starting my pre-reqs but then gained 20 of them back during the school year. This summer I've joined Weight Watchers and...

    Thanks Lpr0711, I finally actually recieved my packet this evening in the mail so I was able to get the right code. I'm glad I waited for one I knew was correct because the one on the paper she...

  17. ADN Fall 2011 Hopefuls!!!

    Just got back into the grind again on Wednesday. We started two days late because of snow. We don't have to make up the days but that means that the pressure is already on because the teachers are...
  18. I was told by our nursing department that all the two year state schools in Alabama are going to the same point system for admission in the Fall. Has anyone else heard this? I've noticed that some of...

    Wow! Were you able to score A's in A&P without studying ahead of time? If so, please! Share your secret. You must have great memory. Those labs in A&P 1 almost killed me last semester and I'm...

    Sounds rough! I had chem this semester too.Our lab exam was fairly easy though. Sorry it was so rough. Hope in the end your grade doesn't suffer too much from this one difficult exam. I'm just glad...
  24. Do I want to be a nurse for the wrong reasons?

    Your interest in the medical/science part of nursing sounds like most of the nursing and prenursing students I know. You need to have human compassion and care for humanity but you don't need to be "a...

    Ok, so I freaked out a little. I didn't fail, I made a C on the final. I have a B in A&P, and a B in Chemistry. I started the semester hoping for A's but overall I'm satisified. I'll be taking...
