  2. Year Round School ???

  10. Hi, I'm a student who is starting clinicals soon and I'm ready to buy my shoes. I don't want to buy them on the Internet because I have no idea which type I want to get, so I want to go someplace...
  11. Getting Organized Before Starting School

    The best thing about this thread, other than the excellent ideas, is that we can see that we're not alone in our concerns! I think the best thing I finally figured out is how to LET my husband be...
  12. Thanks!!

  14. what do nurses do..seriously

    Your question is a good one because I don't think most people know what nurses do. I certainly didn't, when I decided to quit my job and go to nursing school. I thought I did. I'm still learning...

  20. Is anyone out there a Emory nursing student?

    Darlene will probably concur with this (we were in prerequisites at GA State together and talked to many of the same people), but if I had it to do over again I would have applied at many more...
  21. When to plan a pregnancy

    For me, being older probably makes the decision a little easier. I'm 30, nearly 31, and I have medical issues which will probably make it a bad idea to wait too long. It's either have a child while...
