I have found notecards are easy way to test yourself on your memorization, also I have found for me personally typing out my notes on a computer helps me remember more, because I end up reading the sentence a few times while I am trying to remember what to type on my computer.

I am a little younger, only 22, with a toddler trying to go through nursing program and right now the hardest part is that I dont have an income to pay for childcare for my daughter while I am in school. My hubby is Air Force and we just moved to a new city where we know nobody so it is worrysome for me financially choosing to pursue a nursing degree with a toddler but I would much rather be able to go to work full time once she is in school than be worrying about a newborn and starting my career. But thats my personal choice.

I just am not sure if going to a University for my BSN is a faster way than taking 4 years to get my AAS in Nursing... as well as the transfer of my license to other states?

Ok so I am a military wife and as many know with that my "hometown" never stays the same. So I am trying to become a nurse and we just moved to the VA area in Hampton and I have been looking for a good yet inexpensive nursing program to get my RN, and eventually I would like to get my BSN but I want to get my RN first so I can start working and then go to school for my BSN. The school I am looking at attending as of now is Thomas Nelson Community College and they have the pre nursing reqs which are BIO101, BIO141 and ENG111, and then they have a point system for taking BIO102, and BIO 142 before entering nursing program(which is competitive). But the problem is that you can only take one BIO class per semester which puts me at 2 years just for pre reqs and then hopefully I get into the program for another two years of the program. So thats 4 years to get my RN, is that normal timeframe? I have attended another University in another state for general education and so some of my credits may transfer but I never took BIO... I am just worried about how long it will take to get my RN and then if we move to another state will it transfer, can I use my RN in a new state or will I have to retake all my classes? Any info would help..
