Age: 49 Current Age: 52 Previous Work - "tag your it" aka Office Administrator for 30+ years I come for a long line of nurses and I just didn't want to do it... I start my core curriculum January 2015 and couldn't be more happy about it.

Starting in January 2015 and I am 52 yrs old working full time...

ordered the book today - thank you for such a great post... I start my journey in January 2015

All done except for tdap, tb-test, and the physical appointment with my doc... that is scheduled for November 5 - then I'm done! Are you going to the orientation on November 17?

Hi Kristen! Congratulations!!! I got my letter September 29th from PSC for the Nights/Weekend program. How are you doing on that very long list of things to get together before November 14???

Congratulations! I got my letter a week ago! I understand how you feel. Good luck on your new journey.

I took mine at Pensacola State on November 18 Reading Comprehension - 96% Grammar - 84% Vocabulary/General Knowledge - 92% Anatomy and Physiology - 88% Math - 92% Overall - 90%

Just finished AP1 on April 30th. My AP2 starts May 13. It's a 12 week course. Say a prayer!

You should definitely memorize the origins/insertions - I just took my muscle practical last night and it was horrific. I wish I had started studying a lot sooner. I passed with an 82 - class average was a 62.

I am taking AP2 this summer and studying for the HESI exam

Made a 100 on my first practical... am a happy camper

I started last summer just before I turned 50. It's never to late to go back to school! :)

Our teacher is not really all the great. He reads from the power points and when you ask him a question, he just re-reads the same power point slide. If you want an explanation... google is your friend! First Lecture: Achieved class high score wit...

youtube has some really good videos... i watched a lot of them on the solute pumps, cell division, etc... very good and they really helped!

I am - just got my first lecture class test back. I made a "B" and mine was the class high score. Average score for this test was a 72. I made an 85. Not sure this is good or bad. I have a perfect "A" in lab though.

I am taking my pre-reqs for nursing school and one of them is Understanding Nutrition. The instructor is breaking this all down to a cellular level. My question is this - as an RN - how much of this do you actually use? Thank You!

Thanks to everyone for their response - Saysfaa - didn't think of it that way but after re-reading this weeks chapter I can see what you're saying -

Agree totally here - Nursing is CARING for your patients regardless!!!

I completely understand. I am always the oldest in my class. I am 50 and it's very hard to relate to some of my classmates. I feel like I am always behind the curve and slow even though my grades are very good. Good luck to you - hang in there and ...
