What is a MAP?

Congrats teteab03!!

The 24 hour count down begins...

I think you know yourself better than any of us do. If your gut instinct is telling you, nursing may not be a good fit for you than you should listen to it. I think it would be very detrimental to your already very low self confidence if you attempt it and then fail. Have you considered Rad Tech or Medical Lab Tech? I think those professions would be a better fit for you. Also, remember that just because nursing may not be a good fit for you now, does not mean it will always be that way. People grow and change over time. The person you will be in 10 years is not the person you are now.

I dont know about others but I can tell you I got a 71 on the science portion of the teas.

Please let us know what you find out. Not being able to use the pell grant for the program would really be horrible.

Teateabo3, when you say the pell grant wont pay, are you talking about the cna class nurs 140 specifically or the rest of the nursing program in general?

Please let me know what you find out laurynq16 as I got my info from Paul.... and I'd like to know what the correct info is, lol. I have my cna too but mine is expired. I was hoping to save the money on the class as well.

Student4u2, can you tell me, was there any money due at orientation? Im trying to figure out how much the first semester will cost and when it will be due by. I heard the first semester books run about $1000. Did you find that to be true? Thanks!!

Paul told me that as long as your on the health care worker registry as a cna (even if your certification is expired) then you do not have to take the cna classes.

I heard the acceptance/denial letters will be sent out on April 10th.

I thought maybe I would want to do home health one day but I've read so many stories of nurses working 60 plus hours a week and always feeling like they are working that Ive had second thoughts. I own my own business and one of the reasons I want to get into nursing, is to feel like after I clock out, my time is my own. When you have your own business, it feels like your are always and i mean always working. yuck.
