    I agree...its never too early to start studying for those classes. I would do it too but my instructor doesnt go from the book, instead she skips around and does power points. I also use quizlet as a...

    givemeu1 replied to Amdecl6's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with Compassion_x,.....as in being confidential information regarding patients, I would say this is no less for you, and what meds you are taking. I wouldn't worry as long as the medication...

    givemeu1 replied to givemeu1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  11. Resigning...again.

    givemeu1 replied to Caffeine_IV's topic in General Nursing

  12. CNA or EMT while taking nursing pre-requisites?

    givemeu1 replied to mswtruth's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

  13. Anatomy/Physiology 1 and General Chemistry

    givemeu1 replied to Amazing81's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    givemeu1 replied to TurtleCat's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Calm down and take a deep breath for a moment and think back on why you wanted to pursue a career in health care. If you didn't think you could do it, you would've never applied and accomplished the...
