    Dating in Nursing School

    Not to be a Debbie downer, but there is always the chance of breaking up. I think the OP should wait awhile first or even wait until after graduation to start dating this new guy. Being together may...

    Lpn vs Rn

    I don't know who/what you are referring to in terms of people yelling that a LPN is a waste of time... but obviously it is a personal choice depending on what type of nurse you would like to be, as...

    Tired of Pre-req classes!

    This is my last semester of pre reqs and I am grateful for that. I know nursing school will be challening but I am ready to move into a new phase. It's taken me almost 2 years to complete all this...
