Hello all- I was rejected by 5 schools and am feeling pretty bummed out about it. I'd like to know what your experiences were in this. How many times were you rejected before getting into nursing school? I'd really like to hear from students who've...

Has anyone gotten rejected from a nursing program? What did you tell yourself in order to stay motivated? I've already gotten two rejection letters. At first, I took it in stride. But sometimes I find myself questioning if this is worth it. I left ...

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I did not think of searching for the second start. I just registered for class. I am good to go now :)

I was accepted, but learned today that one of my pre-reqs (History) will not transfer because it was awarded in Quarter credits. UTH only accepts semester hours. I am sooooooo devastated. This is my dream nursing school that I've strived for for th...

THere's been several surveys and studies done on professions with the highest divorce rates. Among bartenders, entertainers and telemarketers, the nursing profession was one of them. Why? And for those that are not divorced, how do you prevent yo...

LOL. Of course I'm going to yell at you. You have a senile ostrich (or whatever that is) as your profile pic.

@mac7421 & @tait Thank you so much for your input. This is a really good conversation about the role/debate of spirituality and relationships. However, I'd like to bring it back to my question on hand: WHAT IS IT ABOUT THE NURSING PROFESSION THA...

Thank you for sharing. Now I know why you're so crazy about God! :) I understand that men have the tendency to internalize a lot of things. I wish I knew how to internalize things too, sometimes I can't ever shut this mouth up! haha :) If you had ...

Thank you for sharing. You are extremely courageous beyond belief. I have absolutely no idea how difficult it is to leave a DV relationship, but it sounds like leaving it is just as difficult as staying in one. I applaud your strength. Do you think...

WOW! You and your hubs are definitely a rare breed. :) What other relationship tips can you provide for those with extremely demanding careers (i.e. law enforcement and nursing)? Do you ever find yourself talking about work to your hubs?

I definitely see how this can sound preachy and agree with you. But Mac7421 brings up a good point that spirituality seems to be missing in times of extreme difficulty. @Mac7421 - Can you tell me more about your former relationship? Do you think you...

Do you think that the nursing profession plays a role in this? Or is it just simply a woman's natural tendency to take care of others?

@Tait LOL! Girl, I think we've all had one of those in our lives at one point in time.

@Blue Roses - I totally agree. I think it is deeply inherent that we (especially females) need someone that will listen to us talk about our day. Whether or not my boyfriend is actively listening is a different story. LOL! I am thankful though, that ...

@ladyflyer58 I think akulahawk may have answered your question. But if you would like a more thorough response, it's better that you post your question as a new topic. Thanks :)

@ topaz1100 THanks for sharing! Yes, it is quite frustrating to know that I didn't get in by mere points. You mentioned that you had doubts after receiving your rejection letter. What made you strive on?

akulahawk WOW 8 semesters and 13 applications! You are so strong for hanging in there. 8 consecutive semesters....how many years is that? boricuarn23 I am in the same boat. What branch did you serve? I was a Marine with a Bachelor's degree. I grad...

@AccelBSN12 Oh my gosh. You really persevered! I really shouldn't be complaining anymore. Do you think that the rejection helped you become a better student?

There's a very good site that gives you an idea of what companies pay: www.glassdoor.com

Thanks for your responses everybody. I'd like to revisit this topic and ask you.....if you had to do it differently with your failed relationships, what would you do differently?

Hello- I know this topic may get moved to the pre-nursing student section, but I really wanted to reach out to current nursing students. How many times were you rejected before getting accepted into nursing school? I'd really love to hear from tho...

Hi Cordae! I sent you a PM. Could you please check it? :)

I'm a nurse's aide at a retirement home and am trying to get into nursing school. I would love to have more hands-on experience so that it could prepare me for nursing school. In what capacity can I help the nurse other than the basic hygeine care? ...

I was curious, but how come there's little literature on pre-nursing students? I am working on a writing project about the stress levels of pre-nursing students, but couldn't find any. Most of the current studies were done on nursing students. Is th...
