I'm in my 2nd semester of 5 and started an externship this semester and will work there until graduation. I really like it (much better than clinicals) and am learning so much. What I can offer to this thread is, my nurse manager asks me nearly every...

I just saw something like this on our bulletin board, free rent for stroke victim. I think it sounds like a great idea. Good luck to you.

You sound like my mom and her plantar fasciitis pain. She loves birkenstocks. I have a coworker with PF who likes dansko. You might do a search for plantar fasciitis and see what you come up with. Good luck, I hope your pain eases!

Definitely do-able. I did my A&P 1 in a summer five week session from 5:30-10:30p after my 8-5 job. It was a lecture and lab combined. It was intense and had no life during that 5 weeks but I managed to eek out an A and I still feel like I know i...

Expensive, but, I imagine Power Panties by Spanx http://www.spanx.com/pls/enetrixp/!stmenu_template.main won't show! I'm really glad we have navy scrubs! Good luck!

Well said, I agree. We don't know all the circumstances of the person in question, their attendance and grades are the business of the professors and the student in question. Kind of an aside, RN is my second bachelor's degree, in my first degree and...

Health Assessment 1 and skill lab Pathophysiology Adult Health Care 1 and clinical and a research class

Micro was probably my favorite pre-req! I loved that class. I also had an excellent teacher, which I'm sure made the difference. Good luck!

I just got some Dansko's and just from wearing them around I really like them so far.

This cash thing is a great idea

I do exactly what you do, play on the internet and look busy, but at a financial firm until my nursing program starts in a few weeks! SmilingBluEyes, speaking at least for my job, you don't want it, its mindnumbingly boring... :uhoh21:

I was going to say the same thing, I got black out fabric at Joann's (any fabric store probably has it) its on the big rolls with the upholstery fabric. I don't think it was even $5 a yard. We originally got it because we have west facing windows in ...

I just noticed your orientation and start dates and Houston, are you at UT? Because I am... :)

University of Texas Health Science Center Houston, Class of '07

Hello! I too have a first degree, I graduated in 2000 with a BBA in finance and marketing double major. I sort of stumbled into business for lack of other interests. I was very interested in healthcare but was convinced I was bad at sciences and deci...

Orientation is 8/26 and I start on 8/29! Graduate in May 2007. I cannot wait.

From what I've read and heard from med student friends (completely hearsay, fwiw) medical schools understand the nursing shortage and actually don't want to pull a qualified nurse from the field into medical school. From this particular point of view...

Posting to you live from the carpeted walls of my cube! 31 days left in the financial world, and counting!!!

I was also going to say though, with all due respect, and I have no idea what you are coming from, but I could stay in my current industry and get great pay and benefits. I had to know for myself what I'd be willing to do if the benefits and compensa...

NurseKatrina you and I have similar stories. I graduated with a bachelor's in business after knowing by my junior year business was not where I wanted to be. I was interested in healthcare going into school but somehow had the false notion in my head...

This is very useful information! I'm in a similar situation to adh_09, I have a previous Bachelor's degree but I am starting a BSN program this August. I'm also interested in the air force, but I have mild controlled asthma. Should I stop thinking ai...
