    Dilemma. ..need advice

    cracklingkraken replied to TexasNurse2B's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You would not be the first individual to be in nursing school in your 40s or 50s, and you will not be the last. If your current financial and family situation prevents you from enrolling in nursing...

    nursing student transfer opportunity

    cracklingkraken replied to sasasa25's topic in General Students

    It's hard to say. Often times, nursing classes do not transfer over. As each curriculum varies and there is no way to tell what skills you previously learned from your other program, you will most...

    Is it smart to start my pre-reqs now?

    cracklingkraken replied to Dit250's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Would you be willing to work in the mean time? You could take a CNA course and work as a CNA. It gives you some experience in the healthcare field. Plus, who knows, it could lead to potential job...

    cracklingkraken replied to PianoTiles's topic in General Nursing

    Googled it. I don't own a 3DS, so nope, never heard of it. Nerd alert. Some of my favorites include: Chrono Trigger, Tales of Fantasia, Secret of Mana, Pokemon (the originals on Gameboy), Breath of...

    What do you guys like to do in your free time?

    cracklingkraken replied to PianoTiles's topic in General Nursing

    Oh, forgot to include things I enjoy. Hopefully, after becoming a nurse, I'll still have time to make for these: video games, watching movies, knitting/crocheting, attempting to cook/bake, playing...

    You missed an interesting individual's, I think it was HeatherPaige or something ending with Paige, rant about how LPNs aren't nurses. I think most of the posts from that thread were deleted

    Just highlighting some of the key points of your original post. It seems like you yourself have spelled out that you may not be able to devote the time necessary to pass the prereqs. If that's the...

    Nursing prerequisites

    cracklingkraken replied to HeatherPaige's topic in General Students

    Not sure why you're getting offended.. Like I and RNsRWe stated, it depends on the individual. We don't know you. There are too many variables to say whether or whether not you personally can handle...

    cracklingkraken replied to togu's topic in General Students

    You can certainly rent some of them. I rented my Mental Health and OB/Peds textbooks because we only used them for 1 semester. Plus, I have no interest in going into either field, so I most likely...
