Very normal indeed. I was 45 when I started back to school. Husband traveled , I child still at home. So I can really sympathize with all your frustrations. I wish I could tell you it will get easier once in the program ...but it doesn't. I will tell...

After you receive your degree as an RN , you could not work as a CNA, for 2 reasons I can think of 1. no one would pay or hire an RN as a CNA 2. working as a cna you would still be held to the same liability as an RN

just my 2 cents..currently in nursing school and they are teaching us lovenox...lovehandles

WOW thanks ....i am one month in also and am having trouble with some of these kinds of questions but seeing metricalpound's answer kind of clicked a light on for me!! I think my biggest problem has been "adding " to the questions or not really under...

I commend you also. I can barely function with very very PRN. On the other hand I truly believe it is very difficult for anyone who has not been through nursing school to REALLY understand what it REALLY takes to be in and complete nursing school. Th...

CC...3.65 and the competition was INTENSE!

Laura Tyler Junior College , Lindale TX . 11 months, started August 22nd!!! YAY everyone!!! Let's DO THIS!!

August 22nd....YIKES (i will not freak out, i will not freak out) TJC Lindale Texas

I have a stupid question...what is an STNA?

I have had the same thing happen to me...and sometimes if you call them on their "BS" they respect you more...kind of fuuny:uhoh3:

I found Microbiology considerably HARDER....A's on both A&P 1 / 2...but talking to my friends, I also had a very demanding teacher. Good luck ....and STUDY , STUDY, STUDY:up:

Had to weigh in on this one as I am a CNA with 8 years experience and I will begin nursing school in the Fall. I have seen this trend with my own eyes..the CNA's lately have changed considerably. There is a lack of "professionalism" overall. I feel ...

If it were me...I would continue. I will be starting my LPN program this August. I choose this route because ...if nothing else it is a stepping stone to higher degree programs....ADN, BSN,MSN ect. Good luck and hang in there!

Tyler Junior College...3.7 ...90 HESIA2 , we do not require TEAS!!! YAY!!!!

Sounds to me like you need to give yourself a break. Obviously you would not have gotten this far...if you were incompetent. I this it is just a serious case of the jitters. Take a deep breath...relax...and GO GET THIS THING DONE girl!!!

It is a very arcane procedure...however...cheating is rampant and all of these smart phones ect. have only added to the problem. Unfortunately...it does make it difficult for everyone else. Take comfort in the fact we are ALL in the same boat with yo...

oops sorry I meant 6A-10P Saturday and Sunday. 2 years is an ADN degree for an RN. ( this is usually the nursing program itself)However, there are pre-reqs required and they differ in each college...usually adds a year or 2.

We do Saturday and Sunday 6A-6P and are paid for 40 hours.

CNA certified nurses assistant...usually 2 weeks of classes..3 months training ..test LVN/LPN licensed vocational/practical nurse .....some pre-reqs varies according to state 11-13 months RN registered nurse pre-reqs and 2 year nursing school WHICH g...

My only point is the same issue I have ALWAYS had with this debate....alcohol and tobacco for all their faults...are still LEGAL...it says alot about the personalities involved that pot is not. Yet they are still willing to take the "risk" associated...

I had to take Sociology, Life Span, Nutrition, Pharmacology, A&P 1/2, Microbiology, English 1/2, Art, Med Terminology 1/2, Intro to Health Professions, General Pyscology, College Algebra. I understand the family reference as I too will be the fir...

Took the HESI last year...90. The best study guide I used was from a website call ...Mometrix. Good Luck !

However....I DID get the no line bifocals....a girls' vanity can only take so much:lol2:

Welcome to presbyopia....very common in your 40's. I have never once worn glasses, went to readers for the first 2 semesters. And went and got bifocals a year ago. Studying is much easier.....welcome to the club:)

What I have discovered after 2 years and FINALLY beginning the program is .....that constant fear of failure is what keeps people like us pushing as hard as we can and giving it ALL we have ! Good Luck....and BREATHE!
