I am not the best person for advice, but my 2 cents? Own what happened. Kudos to you for at least working at McDonald's and not completely giving up on life...but seriously. You are a nurse. You may have to put in your due time and work anywhere that...

I am currently a MA for a pediatrician. A typical day involves a lot of sick visits-swabbing for strep, flu, and rsv relentlessly. It can become very tedious doing the same ole thing! Some pt's require breathing treAtments. A lot of well visits and g...

I am seriously hoping the same thing. What did you score on your ACT? I hope I am able to score higher than I did before since so many points come from that.

I got mine too and no I didn't get in either. Was expecting that, but glad to not have to wait around wondering anymore anyway! Good luck everybody to whatever comes your way! I am going to try to up my points and try again!

Well just in case, post here and let us know. Good luck!

It might, and I am thinking the same thing for myself bc I think I may have had even less points than that. Not 100% sure what my points were for sure though. But just in case, post here and let us know. Take care:)

Have you gotten your letter to confirm whether you got in or not for sure?

I will probably do the same as you if I don't get accepted as well. It's good that they also accept in the spring so the people who didn't get on don't have to wait a whole year to try again. And you are so right, you will definitely be ready when th...

Jforseth2, i have been following along this thread, just wanted to extend my apologies to you and tell you I know how you feel! Don't let it get you down and keep trying! I don't know if you applied to other programs or not...but if you did, I hope t...

I have heard the rate around here at hospital is around 20$/hr and maybe a little more for shift diff. Houses are generally 150-200,000$ so you can have that to compare to cost of living where you are.

It takes courage to talk about your story and confess your wrong doings! I have never been in a situation such as yours, but I just want to congratulate you on your road to recovery!! U seem like you have your head on straight, and are taking the rig...

Awesome! I was asking both of you:) I am thinking of challenging the cna boards? I had a few semesters in nursing school a couple of years ago, but I didn't finish due to my circumstances at the time. I honestly don't want to get my cna and end up wo...

hello! I have a question, did you get your cna license prior to applying for this job? (sorry if that is a stupid question lol!) I am hoping to go into nursing school in the fall of 2013, but I do not currently have my cna license. I have been toying...

Saying a prayer!!! Good luck to you!

Start with baby steps if you have to! If you haven't even begun your pre-reqs yet, you have a while before you would need to sweat that kind of stuff (it is not the end of the world if you miss a pre-req class for a sick kid, like it would be in NS) ...

I have had so many people bless our family over the past few years and it always happened when I thought I had no where left to turn to.....so I can totally relate to what you are feeling! It can be such a humbling feeling:) I am sorry that you are n...

I haven't checked in here for a while and just wanted to say hi! I see a lot of you have finished already, and gotten A's....way to go!! I have made straight B's on all my tests. I couldn't make an A on one to save my life! I thought I had a chance o...

Just checking in....I had my first test last week (on 5 chapters! EEK!). I came home and cried because I thought I failed it!!! I managed to make and 80, but it was shear luck. I must have done some good guessing because there was so much I didn't kn...

So...I started class last week! It is so hectic bc I have to go 4 days of the week, and work in between, as well as deal with my kiddos. This will be a long semester for me lol! I think I am going to like my teacher and so far the material is relativ...

While I don't have any solid advice for you...I just want to tell you not to give up!!! You CAN do this! Pray, and keep working hard at it. Try moving things around in your schedule if possible. Recruit in some family/friends for help with child care...

I am also taking Micro! I am definitely nervous about it too! EEK! It has been a minute since I have been in school, but I am looking forward to it, somewhat! LOL! Hoping it is interesting at least...good luck to ya! Maybe more will post in this thre...

You are awesome!!!! You are going to be a great nurse...congratulations to ya!!! :w00t: Enjoy every minute of your accomplishment, you certainly deserve it:):) Good luck with your future endeavors!

OP, wow... I hope you can do some soul searching, and figure out what is best for you, and if this is really what you want. It looks as though you know exactly what your problem is, so you just need to buck up and fix it! LOL! You are too far into th...

I am not a nurse yet, but from what I have heard the nursing home is one of the more difficult places to work...so one can understand why you are tired of it. but remember, you are a CNA now. While Cna's and nurses work together, their roles are very...

My goodness. This made me cry! I am not a nurse yet, but I just wanted you to know that you are an inspiration. How lucky that family was to have you!!!! I hope that one day, I can be as loving and caring of a nurse as you seem to be. I am so sorry f...
