Agree, but those md's are hot!!!!!!!!!

uuggghhhh!!!!!!!!!!!! I missed the first few episodes and now after hearing that, I will have to miss the rest. Does it not take the medical frame-of-mind to get into a show like that in the first place??? What stupid-*** producer/writer actually read the script before letting it be acted out????? Not only is this completely degrading regardless of it being television, but ABC just lost a plethora of viewers. Anyway, I'm hooked on the pleasurable Nip/Tuck(FX); it has my number one (and not for the faint-hearted). CHao!!

yes, I hear you. Just go for it is all anyone with ambition and a dream to live life to the fullest can tell you. I so much admire all of you who knew exactly what you wanted to do from childhood. I am an LPN, still not knowing for sure if this is what I want. All I know is that I care about people, and I love stability. I will never have to worry about not having a steady income. Only you can decide what is best for you. I may be young, but had to grow up quick. I am 27 and have a 8 1/2 yr. old. I went back to school when my daughter was a toddler, while dealing with an abusive spouse; not to be seeking pity, but just stating if you want something enough, it's yours. Now I am contemplating going back for my rn(don't want to pay rent for the rest of my life, living in a 1 bdr. apt), but it's difficult when no family is around me here and I work full time, not to mention there will be alot less quality time with my daughter. Hopefully an online course program will be my salvation. The only way I was able to go back to school was with the assistance of the gov't. Don't feel ashamed at all- when you start receiving your well-earned pay checks- you, in turn, will be helping others go back to school as well. Hope this helped maybe atleast a little. I'd like to hear more from single mom's alike. Good luck to you, and best wishes for you and your family's future. bhamlpn :)

I'm really interested in this entire discussion, since I am contemplating starting an online/self-study program(lpn-asn or bsn). I can definitely add one point since I have been researching this recently, and that is the program in particular that I've been looking into requires that you go to a learning center (such as Sylvan) to take a test. That would make cheating for a test just as difficult, or if not more difficult at a center such as this. Although, they are costly(approx. 150-200$ per test; one for each class you take). Supposedly, this is an accredited program, although if you see my thread(Legit online/self-study lpn-asn or bsn programs) it goes into more detail on this particular program and I had requested any further info anyone may have. Along with your well thought-out response, I completely agree that whether it be online taught or class-instructed, if you make the grade and pass nclex, the achievement is great equivalently. Props to you(opalm,etc.etc.)!! :balloons: :) Bhamlpn
