  1. Work and school?

    I worked full-time and went to school full time. Just make sure to manage your time, and be able to say "no" to other commitments. It will be worth it :)
  2. DUKE ABSN Fall 2012

    I'm pretty set on my decision to go to MGH. I looooooovvvvvveeeeeedddd Duke though, but I already have a lot riding on MGH.
  3. DUKE ABSN Fall 2012

    I'm in for for MADIN and the program too! I don't think I'm going though...
  4. Great Learning Opportuity Often Missed

    That's such a great opportunity. Hopefully I will get one during my program as well.
  5. panic-attack reaction to compazine

    Compazine and Reglan do this to me. I normally get Benadryl to counteract it. I describe it as making me feel like I need to crawl out of my skin. WORST FEELING!
  6. Concerns about knee and nursing career

    I have horrendous knees and I am starting nursing school in September. I am having surgery in June on my left knee and I am hoping to be all fixed up by the time school rolls around. The only feedback that I have gotten is that it probably is best no...
  7. adult patients admitted to a pediatric hospital

    I'm going to be an adult patient at an adult hospital in a few months. I am having a complex surgery that is normally done in children, but I am a couple years older than the cutoff. I'm not too far out of range, but still not under 21. I find it amu...
  8. A new car because I am not quite sure mine is going to make it through nursing school. Then I will pay off loans and save for a house.
  9. Vanderbilt Grad Entry 2012 Application

    Hi everyone, I just declined my space in the FNP program for a PNP spot at another program. Good luck to everyone still waiting or on the wait list!
  10. DUKE ABSN Fall 2012

    Waitlist :-/ Congrats to everyone who got it! I already sent in my deposit for another school weeks ago, so I think I will be giving up on Duke.
  11. DUKE ABSN Fall 2012

    Mine hasn't changed either!
  12. Northeastern Direct-Entry NP

    I was accepted into the hybrid program, I received my letter the day I called, and the program never called me back. That was on Friday afternoon, and the deposit was due today (Monday). Yeah, not gonna happen. I really don't know how I feel about th...
  13. Baby during grad school

    Interested to see the comments. I will be 28 when I graduate from PNP school.
  14. Northeastern Direct-Entry NP

    Hmmm...maybe they forgot to send mine too? I will call them tomorrow. I applied for Peds as well.
  15. Northeastern Direct-Entry NP

    I still haven't heard anything from Northeastern. I never got an interview, so I am assuming I didn't get in, but it would be nice to know. They were my first choice. I have gotten into MGH, Case Western and Vanderbilt, and I have sent in a deposti f...
  16. Clinicals and surgery

    hi everyone, i have recently been accepted into several direct-entry nursing programs. only one of the schools is in my hometown and the others will require me to move several states away. i have the opportunity of a full scholarship to one program ...
  17. Clinicals and surgery

    Thanks for the advice. I called the surgical coordinator again and she said there are still no available dates earlier than June 19. I do not want to find a new surgeon because the surgery is complicated and I have already gone through four, the othe...
  18. Clinicals and surgery

    Thanks for responding! I'm not at all worried about the classroom, it's all clinical. Since the first part is accelerated, clinicals start right after the semester starts. The NP at my ortho clinic was supposed to call me to go over recovery time and...
  19. Case Western Grad Entry

    Hi everyone, I have just been accepted into the grad-entry DNP program at Case Western. There does not seem to be a lot of information out there about this program. Has anyone completed it and have any opinions? I'm trying to decide between here and...
  20. Case Western Grad Entry

    Thank you sooo much for responding. Do you have any experience with this program? I also got into Vanderbilt and Mass General (w/scholarship). I have the potential for a full tuition scholarship at Case Western. I just cannot find much info about the...
  21. Think im in big trouble!

    I think you can infer from the context...
  22. After I read that a few times, I think I got it ha. I think national licensing would be easier, but...
  23. Thanks, it does!
  24. Can someone explain what a compact state is?
