   nurselili30 replied to Futurenurse969's topic in Pre-Nursing

   If I was young like you and still in H.S, I wouldn't bother with a 4 years program. My community college is great #2 in NCLEX pass rate in my entire state, even ahead of some of the 4 years BSN schools and great reputation with local hospitals that b...

   nurselili30 replied to Kalasang97's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Don't stress out about it. I will suggest 2 things to do. 1- lock yourself up for a month and study the HESI to get above a 90 percent (no one will deny you with a really great HESI score, trust me). 2-apply to as many nursing programs in your area...

    Don't bite more than you can chew. I currently work full time (40 hours a week) and taking only 2 classes(AP1 and English 103) but it's hell. I would go to a CC and just shoot for the pre-requisite, taking them 2 at a time, 2 in summer and 1 in winte...
