    Lovely_RN replied to euglena's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I purchased the RN book but ended up taking the PN exam and you know what? The questions were almost taken straight out of the book! I was surprised because I didn't have time to buy the PN book but...

    Lovely_RN replied to Martibear's topic in First Year After Licensure

  5. The Largest Student Loan Actually PAID OFF!

    Lovely_RN replied to BSNtobe2009's topic in General Nursing

    My family was pretty poor when I was growing up and my parents didn't help me prepare for college in anyway. They didn't go so I guess they didn't really see it as a possibility for their children. I...

    Lovely_RN replied to alwaysnervous's topic in New York Nursing

    I graduated from Manhattan College and the Mount is our sister school. I was a communications major and I took all of my Comm classes on the CMSV campus so I don't know a thing about the nursing...

    Lovely_RN replied to Roxy5558's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just found out today that I made it into the LPN program. I am numb, it doesn't seem real to me that I will start nursing school on January 4, 2007. Now I have to find a way to pay for it! Off to...

  11. low income---> chance to go to a university

    Lovely_RN replied to barbie q's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think you should go the BSN route since you are a low income student. If you apply to a state school you might be covered completely by financial aid. If your family is very low income your...

  12. Stressed out!! help!

    Lovely_RN replied to Roxy625's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    NYC nursing schools are very competitive! Maybe you should get your LPN first and then try for the RN. If you do decide to go that route you can apply to Hopfer school of nursing in Mt. Vernon which...

    My pediatrician isn't very supportive of my bf efforts. From the beginning she has been trying to make me supplement with formula. DD is growing very well w/o any formula and I think she just doesn't...

  19. Newborn while in nursing school?

    Lovely_RN replied to lovinla23's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I say don't do it! My daughter just turned two-months-old and I have a 13-year-old. I was supposed to start A&PII on 10/16 but I had to drop it because she is demanding way too much of my time...

    Lovely_RN replied to nynurse2be's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Lovely_RN replied to nurse4theplanet's topic in General Nursing

    I think that once you graduate from college the type of H.S. education you had really doesn't matter any longer. Every job that I have had after I graduated from college required proof of my college...

  23. Do you have a GED?????

    Lovely_RN replied to nurse4theplanet's topic in General Nursing

    I got a GED when I was 17 and pregnant. It didn't stop me from going on to get my BA and I very much doubt it will make a difference in me getting a second degree in
