I am 42 years old, and, after two full years, just finished my prerequisites and will be starting nursing school in January. My son graduated college before me! I bought most of my books on Craigslist and have sold many of them there as well. Older e...
Although I won't start nursing classes until January, I recorded all my A & P lectures. I have a cheap voice recorder that I got for $5 on craigslist. When I got home from each class, I listened again to the lectures and recopied my notes neatly...

You are amazing, Ms. G! If nursing is your passion, it's because God put that passion in you, and He will enable you to see it through. You should be very proud of yourself for not giving in to discouragement! Best of luck to you.. You rock!
I'm 42 years old, mom of 2 boys- 22 & 17, and I'm finishing up my prereqs to start my BSN program in January. I don't think I've ever been happier...I'm having a blast! I also work full time, but there's something about being in a place you know...
I took it in March and got a 95.3% over all. I hear so many people say they ran out of time..especially in the math portion. Be sure to brush up on fractions, long division, multiplication, and basic algebra. Get a hold of a workbook and work the pro...
