  1. Male nurse advantage?

    I'm currently finished all of my LPN prereqs in 2012 and waiting for acceptance into the program this fall. But I've been reading about how new grads are having a difficult time finding jobs and I was wondering are female students that are new grads ...
  2. Nursing school vs medical school?

    Unless you're head boss, even doctors, unless the have their own private practice, takes orders from higher ups. As a nurse, I think if you want to tell other nurses what to do, become a DON.
  3. Acceptance!!

    I just got accepted into the nursing program!! I've stressed myself day in and day out and received a 4.0 for the LPN nursing program! I actually teared up and I'm a guy lol. My hard work has finally paid off! I've purchased my 101 book and began rea...
  4. Acceptance!!

  5. Acceptance!!

    It goes by GPA! there are 64 seats in the fall and I believe 16 in the morning! You are required to submit a background check, have various shots done such as a ppD test, varicella, etc. And you have to at least complete math 092 or have an exemption...
  6. Nursing from paramedic....

    Yea well I'm assuming you mean ur going to work as an EMT-B I think they get paid around $10hr but it always depend where you work. I was talking to my friend today and she said her friend was a paramedic and only made $13hr. Again, it's all in where...

  9. What do you wish you had studied/learned more?

    Well I cant think of anything that I wished to study more because I like perfection when it comes to grades. So I personally study anything I could. And how long have you been out if school? If its like 4yrs+ I believe you have to retake them. But fo...
  10. Anatomy advice

    Yea I'm going to save you a lot of time and useless motivation ********. If you have four children and work TWO jobs, it's going to be IMPOSSIBLE for you to do the nursing program if that is your major. You do realize that in addition to nursing clas...
  11. Desparate for advice...or just give up?

    Well sounds good to me. Take a few classes at a time to get the feel for it because your A&P classes will be the toughest. If you can't quit your job and if you're serious about doing nursing as this is not an easy choice such as ordering pizza, ...
  12. RN vs. LVN

    First of all, LVN/LPN isnt a ADN nor is it a BSN. It's a certificate of proficiency which only takes a year to get. LVN is nursing and it's only hard I assume because you have to learn he basis of nursing. This first of anything is difficult because...
  13. Well first of all, how much you need to study, how many hours u need to cut at work, and how "difficult" the workload for classes could be depend on how many classes you take. For me, I took five classes equaling to 15 credits straight off the back. ...
  14. Nursing with medical conditions

    There are those billing people that workin hospitals

  16. The Pursuit of Nursing and Why I Want To Be A Nurse

    Wow what a good inspiring story. It's cool that you want to uphold your families tradition and even better you have that spirits ingrained in you naturally. I want to help people as well and actually contribute to the world instead of serving lousy, ...
  17. Is Anyone Bored Yet?

    October is when I hear if I get accepted or not! I'm taking my ADN pre reqs as I have already finished my LPN pre reqs. I want to hurry up and hear if I got accepted or not but I'm terrified of the third week of October.
  18. im really terrified! *piog

    Well first of all, we all aren't ladies. There are male nurses here such as I or I'm a pre nursing student to say the least. But anyways, it seems you're in a dilemma of wanting to spend time with your children, not sure of having enough money to sup...
  19. Remembering Pleura vs. Peritoneum!

    My mistake, yes you are right.
  20. Remembering Pleura vs. Peritoneum!

    Visceral is the linings on the organs such as the lungs Pleura is the linings on the WALLS of the organs
  21. I think the most quality a nurse can have that books could never teach is empathy and compassion. I think this because no matter how book smart you are, the utmost thing a person has to take into consideration is that the patient you may be dealing w...
  22. Questions on best route to go

    Some entry admittance is based in solely GPA and nothing else, some just on lottery, or some just on entry test. Just check around your local college areas
  23. Whats your career change story?

    I felt the EXACT same way when I had my job, granted it was working at Walmart when I was 19 , now I'm 21, and the thought hit me all of a sudden. I, too, felt as if I wasn't really contributing to the world. All I felt was that I was making the rich...
  24. A Child Can Change Everything

    That's why I'm becoming a nurse to have a positive impact on people. And when you get into the core of A&P 2, you will understand what is exactly going on with your son. A&P one is obviously just the basics and knowing what is where and what ...
  25. A Child Can Change Everything

    My god! That is truly an inspiring story. That's exactly why I want to be a nurse. I have already taken both my A&P classes and as I'm reading, I could figure out just a little bit, physiology wise, of what was going on with your son. For example...
