I've wanted to become a nurse since I was five-years-old, but I absolutely love psychology. I wanted to mix the two things I like and become a psychiatric nurse, but when I ask people what psych nurses do they tell me that they just push meds. Does ...

Thank you both so much! I really appreciate you taking the time to inform me :)

I am a freshman taking my nursing pre-requisites, hoping to be accepted into an associates nursing program once I am finished. I just moved out on my own and I am working part-time while going to school full time. I thought it would be a good idea to...

I feel a lot better after actually going to my CNA class. There is a student there who makes $13.50/hr as a patient care technician and another student who knows somebody who got hired making $15.00/hr. However, the nursing home I am doing my clinica...

Thank you all so much! I really appreciate it :)

I am nineteen-years-old and I'm taking pre-requisites for the RN program at Tarrant County College, while simultaneously taking a CNA course. I have wanted to become an RN, but after talking to my LVN teachers at my CNA course, I have decided that it...

Thank you all so much for your replies. I really appreciate them and I feel a lot better about this situation. I am going to stick with it and I feel good about it now :) I am going to earn valuable experience.

A&P is much easier to me than Chemistry is...I suck at math, but I'm good at memorization.

I'm as far as pre-cal and Chemistry is very difficult for me, but it might just be because I'm so awful when it comes to math. I'm in Chemistry right now and I've noticed a lot of Algebra. Some of the formulas are crazy to me...so difficult for someo...

I don't have any tips, but I just wanted to wish you good luck!

I'd take Chemistry. I'm in it right now and it sucks, but most schools I plan on applying to require it.

I'm studying pre-nursing at Tarrant County College and I expect to be done with my pre-requisites by the end of this summer. The sciences I'm required to complete are Chemistry, A&P 1, A&P2, and Microbiology. I started off with Chemistry and ...

No offense is taken. I know you're completely right. :) I did let love keep me here, but I don't regret it. I've decided to get my ADN at TCC, because it's much cheaper (I'm living on my own and putting myself through school) and I only have a semest...

I'm eighteen, in my freshman year at Tarrant County College. I am going to become a CNA in early December. I'm wondering if I should work part-time as a CNA and get my ADN at Tarrant County College, then work as an RN get my BSN or if I should finish...

Sounds like Chemistry is tough for a lot of people...I can't wait for A&P. I took honors in high school and it was so much easier to understand.

Thanks to everybody! I appreciate all of the advice :)

I'm eighteen and in my freshman year at a community college. I'm currently working part time and going to school full time, taking my pre-requisites for an RN program. I plan to take an accelerated CNA program that will last about a week and I'll be ...

TAMUCC is just originally where I wanted to go when I graduated high school, but I fell in love with a guy and didn't want to leave. I'm also in love with Corpus Christi and TAMUCC has a higher passing rate on the NCLEX than Tarrant County College.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot! c:

I've been working minimum wage jobs for a few years and one thing I have learned is to watch my back before I say something that can be taken as offensive. You'll most likely encounter all types of people, even ones who look like "meth heads," but it...

I'm going to try to find a study group, then...

I am going to school full time, but that sounds like a really good idea. I just didn't know if they would hire me to work only weekends.

mom2beanurse, I went to visit the school yesterday and found out that I misunderstood the length of the program. They meant that it was one week shorter than the original program, so the accelerated one is three weeks as opposed to four. I will go Mo...

Thanks, Compassion. :) I'll be sure to do that, then.

Hmmmh, hopefully I will. I suppose it never hurts to try, but I just wish I knew what days would be best for me to schedule school for.
