    Prerequisite advice please!

    Since it is your first semester, I wouldn't take more than one science. Then you can see how you do and figure out what you can do the rest of the time. I usually take 14 to 16 hours a

    How do you accept the fact you might not get in?

    I put all of my eggs in one basket, so to speak, and applied to only one program. My plan B was to, if I did not get in, complete a CNA course and hopefully get a job at a hospital nearby so I could...

    55 days!!!

    Me too! The closer it gets the more I'm dreading it, and I'm concerned about having that feeling. I don't know, I've been dealing with some health issues, so I think that just has me down. I want to...

    My first job will be as an RN

    Had to jump in here. I know you mean well, but for me, and I'm sure the OP as well, not working has nothing to do with jobs being "beneath" me. School, really, is my job. I've been in school...

    Graduating high school early

    If you just take a few college courses your would-be senior year, the next year you may be able to enter college as a freshman. It usually depends on how many hours you take. If you check out some...

    Do you have friends going towards nursing too?

    I met a lot of nursing majors in my prereqs, some who were like, "Oh, a 72...well, I didn't really have time to study. My grandma has a cold, and my dog isn't playing fetch like he used to." The ones...

    What do you take to clinicals?

    You guys are great! I like this idea! Somewhere, in some hidden place I'm sure, I have one of those pens that has the four different inks in one. I'm very visual, so that could help. What's the...

    What do you take to clinicals?

    Thanks, everyone! I will definitely add a tape measure and mini notebooks to my list. I actually think I already have a few mini notebooks. I'm nuts for school supplies so I always have extra stuff....

    My first job will be as an RN

    At least volunteering shows that you've participated in something. (And not paid experience, so it seems better.) Of course, this comes from someone else who also has very limited job experience....

    What made you choose nursing?

    My story is probably not so noble, either. Since my first biology class I've been fascinated by the human body. During high school I was trying to figure out where to go to college and what I wanted...

    Class questions

    I would suggest taking A&P 2 and chemistry for health sciences in the fall and then taking micro in the spring. One reason being that I took A&P 2 and a similar chemistry class in the same...

    Pageburst

    So far I'm not thrilled with the app. I'm using the Android version, and in the downloading process it froze at least three times. I had to force close each time. Now that the books are downloaded, I...
