  1. Nursing school not for me?

    It took me a long time to start school, for various reasons. Then, I was denied the first time I applied. It was devastating to me, it took a lot out of me. Now, I'm in my second semester and the...

  3. Online STAT

    I took it online. I think I was unprepared for how hard it would be. It's time consuming, but if you do as many practice problems as you can- you'll be fine. I flunked one exam, worked my butt of...

  5. Uggghh!

  10. First week of school down...what have I done!

    I felt the same way only 5 months ago! I think they throw a ton at everyone in the beginning to tame us all. It works! Just focus on what you need to do for next week only! If you look at the...
  11. I'm only in my second semester of the Bsn program, but every time I get overwhelmed I remember the feeling of sheer joy when I finally got my acceptance letter! I sit in class and absorb the wonder...
  12. Nightingale college school of nursing

    $17,600 estimated cost for one year tuition and fees...holy crap! That's one expensive "accreditation pending" ADN school! No waiting list is usually not the best sign for a nursing school these...
  13. 2nd semester of ASN program - part time

    Depends on your teacher, we had a really good one but it's still a tough class. It's just a lot of information to learn in a short time. I just had it with 11 other credits so yeah, it's tough but...

  19. Husband rant...kinda long.

    Freezer, not geezer!
  20. Husband rant...kinda long.

    I was in the same boat 4 months ago. You do need to let go a little. My hubby still hasn't picked up the cooking, I made 30 geezer meals before I started and they are gone. We had sandwiches or...
  21. Finals week!

    It's the end of my first semester! It has really flown by..but there were some days when I wanted to quit! I am so happy to say I didn't flunk one class, or quit! Lol. I feel like I've learned so...
  22. comprehensive final fundamentals of nursing

    I took mine today. I wish I would have found more test bank type questions to study. My teacher apparently took them all from some source like that and we all bet that if she had to take her own...
  23. Finals week!

    Good luck everyone! Took my fundies final today. Only worth 15% of my grade, but everyone walked out of their shaking their heads! It was not what we expected! Two more and I'm done though, can't...
