  5. I'm just feeling sick, scared, & stressed.

    I'm the exact same way I keep chickening out because I'm scared to death of the Anatomy & Physiology, Chemistry, and Microbiology. The A&P shouldn't be too bad but there's so many details to...

  12. Never Too Old for Nursing School

    You're probably not much older than me. I'm going to be 36 in September and I keep thinking to myself that I'm too old already and I should just be a CNA until I retire. Those are my negative...
  13. LPN'S are not going anywhere!

    duskyjewel OMG for a minute there I thought I had written your post lol That is exactly the same route I am going and the reason's why. I will be an LVN when I'm 38 (if accepted) and want to climb...
  14. What's the best route??

    Did the counselor say that if you go from LVN to RN that your GPA won't have to be as high? Or was she suggesting that your only way to be a Nurse is to go for LVN? I'm just wondering because I'm...

  18. How much education do you plan on receiving?

    I'm going from CNA (start 9-2-14) to LVN to ADN to BSN and hopefully someday MSN for my Nurse Practitioner, but I'm a late starter (35 yrs old) so we will see how far I can get.
  19. Yes, I do this all the time and what discourages me the most, is that I'm older (35) and barely starting my journey into Nursing. I start my CNA program in September and plan to do the LVN program...
