  1. Any Former Veterans?

  2. Not sure of what to do.

    Hello all Im in a bit of a pickle here. As it stands I currently have a 2.98 GPA and I am working on my Prereqs to get into a ASN/BSN program (it all depends on which route I choose to take.) I some how manage to get 2 Cs. One in Biology the other in...
  3. Not sure of what to do.

    Hi. I ended up taking some time off of school to focus on what I wanted to do. I am applying to the LVN program over in Merced College. They have a 2 year wait list.
  4. So my family does not approve me to go into nursing..

    The best advice I have ever read. @OP I am in the similiar boat with my parents they think nursing is going to take to long and want me to go into buisness or corrections. Its just how parents are I suppose.
  5. If the program doesnt require it I would say dont do it. It gave me such a head ache with financial aide. You can volunteer at the hospital and be recognized in the point system for it. but if you are not sure if nursing is for you I would say do it...

  7. Any Former Veterans?

    Yes! What was your asvab score? Did you retrain or just enlisted chose that MOS. How is it so far? do you train with the rest of the 68 whiskeys or do you straight to LVN training while skipping over the EMT training?
  8. Any Former Veterans?

    Thanks for the advice every one! Does any one know about the New 68C MOS for the army? Its there LPN school. I was thinking of going through that.

  10. I am still a prenursing student but I will chime in my two cents. First things first, for Social Work you need atleast a Masters to get into the field. Where as with Nursing you can find work with an ASN Degree ( A lot of hospitals do want BSN Degree...

  12. Which one should I take first?

    Well I should be done with all my prerequisite classes by fall of 2014 and hoping to apply to several Nursing programs spring of 2014. But here is my dilema. I can take Anatomy or Physiology this summer and take the one I did not take in the Fall. ...

    The hardest part of microbiology for me was calibrating the microscopes... I almost dropped the class because it was so difficult for me. Other then that pretty straight forward class.

  19. Studying long hours - How do you do it?

    This last semester I would wait till the last 24 hours before an exam and study like a mad man. But I would also review the notes/ study guide days prior for about 30 minutes each day. I would study 10 hours on, 4 hours of sleep, 10 hours on again. ...
