  1. Freaking out

    ^^^This can help a lot, you also might try looking up videos on the subjects too. I know a lot of people that have used khan academy to help them in their prereqs.
  2. Is 35 too old to start from Scratch?

    I hate to break this to you but 35 is not OLD. I can attest to this being 35 myself. Even if she doesn't graduate until she's 40 or older retirement age is continuing to increase. I believe that currently the social security age to receive full benef...
  3. Mine was one combined, there was very little anatomy in my class though. I think I learned more anatomy from my medical terminology class! If I could do it over I would take them separately.

  5. Rose State Spring 2011

  10. Can an OK student nurse challenge the CNA exam?

  12. Apartment Hunting-OKC

    I agree whole heartedly with this! I have lived in Midwest City since I moved here in 2009. The apartments I lived in when I first got here were just broken into this weekend by a group posing as MWC swat team (saw it on the news). I would personall...
  13. Ahh the foot in the door, I fortunately have a couple of connections at area hospitals so hopefully that will work in my favor. Rose state's program has great pass rate for the NCLEX too. Similar to OCCCs I believe. I know this is what most nurses sa...
  14. Oh, sorry LOL. It is definitely a very exciting prospect. I should start nursing classes in January, pending acceptance. I am considering taking it as far as DNP myself (if I'm not utterly sick of being in school after I make through my ADN and BSN)....
  15. Are you an organ donor?

    I am an organ donor. I can understand money coming in to play for some people as a reason not to do it. Health care is big business, but I try think of how I would feel if someone didn't donate when they could have saved my life or a member of my fam...
  16. The training, certification, and regulation of CNAs is through the Oklahoma Department of Health. Their training includes basic nursing assistant skills involving hygiene, mobility, and nutrition, among others. The AUA builds off of those basic skill...
  17. Borders Bookstore going under, stock up?

    I went this past weekend. I bought all the nursing made incredibly easy series that I could find. The nursing section here had been pretty well wiped but I was able to find some. I ended up spending about $200 on nursing books (only 10% off here in O...
  18. Why does anyone go into nursing?

    I know this feeling! I was working at a gas station making $8.25hr! I now have a positon at the AFB Clinic as a student hire...I still only make $12hr. To me that $20-25 IS a lot of money. It's the difference between living in a craphole and buying a...
  19. Thank you so much!! This is soooo helpful!!! Can you recommend an NCLEX book that covers by subject? There are so many I wouldn't know were to start :/
  20. Rose State Spring 2011

    Hi Jamie- I am getting ready to apply as well. I will have either 131 or 132 points (depends on if they accept my current position as a medical admin clerk as limited patient experience). I applied in the spring (I only had 117 points, knew I wouldn'...

  23. Why does anyone go into nursing?

    I haven't started NS yet but I have two reasons: 1- I am easily bored and like an environment that is always changing. 2- I have never been able to picture myself doing anything else...it's just what I am supposed to do/be. Same feelings I had when I...
  24. Cant decide if should start out as LPN or go RN?

    I am wondering this as well. I will start the online program (hopefully) in January. I will be working full-time (I have no choice, but my boss is very understanding) and I am a single mom. I would love to hear about your experience with the program!...
  25. The cutoff was 129. The two semesters before that it was 131 (I have a friend that just finished the first semester)
