I'm pretty sad. I have worked my butt off. I have two young boys, I work as a CNA and I have a 4.0 GPA. I did well on my entrance exam. The program I applied to is competitive but not extremely competitive. I felt like the interview went ok except fo...

I'm not trying to use a scapegoat. I think, for all professional endeavors in my life, I will have to learn to come off as more confident and assertive. It's not just my looks, it's how I come off.

I spoke with another student, who is in the program, and she is under the impression that the interview is the deciding factor. So basically grades and work experience get you to the interview and then they base the decision from the interview alone....

One of my favorite nurses when I gave birth was male. I'm sure you can do it.

I'm getting my BSN but I have also been taking prereqs to apply for the MBA program at my school. I feel like that opens a lot of doors for growing in healthcare or another avenue if I choose. I could never do any type of accounting full time, no tha...

Yay good for you! I'm still in the process of getting in to the school I applied for, I have an interview and then we don't find out till around Thanksgiving! Ug sooo long to wait. I'm sure you'll do great!

It's not what you want to hear but finish your ASN and then move onto a bachelors in something else.

It makes a difference if you're planning on attending grad school or applying for scholarships.. Other than that, as long as you're passing, it only matters to the individual.

That's usually something that should be said during the interview process. But, I have worked with students who went home during school breaks.

khanacademy.com has great videos on everything.

Ug I hated Stats, I still managed an A but by the skin of my teeth. I did so well in Algebra I thought it would be a breeze. Good job on getting that A!

I'm sorry that just sounds like too much debt, my head is spinning. Can you file for bankruptcy on some of it? The private loans? I just can't comprehend paying that much for an undergraduate degree. Definitely go to a community college or somewhere ...

Talk to a lawyer, you may be able to keep the home and get alimony, especially because he has cheated. See if you can get proof and get him out of the house so you can focus on yourself and school. If you can't do these things separate emotionally fr...

Bring scrubs along with you.

Statistics was torture for me. I thought it would be easy because I did so well in Algebra. Nope it was way harder than any other class, for me.

I've taken all but a few classes online. I took A&P lecture in person but the labs online, other than that all my prereqs but 1 or 2 have been online. Sometimes I'm like eh this is great and sometimes I'm like dear lord why did I take this effing...

So I took it today. I did ok. I'll give some averages that Kaplan gave of 360 who had taken the exam, so it might not still be current but it will give you an idea. Overall: Average=60.8% Max=86% My score=84% Math: ...

As a rule of thumb, if someone is interested in you they'll make time for you. If they don't respond, they don't like you. Pushing makes women feel uncomfortable.

Get it done and work in an area that you're comfortable in. You got this. Have you considered graduate school? Go get your MBA and move into management in a few years. Whatever you do, don't quit in the home stretch, what a waste of time that would b...

Also for the anatomy side, buy a laminator, magic eraser and some dry erase markers. Laminate pictures of whatever you're trying to memorize and write, erase, write, erase right on the part that you're trying to memorize. I thought lab was easy and t...

There are so many wonderful youtube videos out there. Watch them. I had a wonderful professor and I still went outside of that and used lots of online information. Also consider hiring a tutor. A&P is really interesting, just relax and remember i...

Also check with your school, at the university I attend, the higher level students register for classes first and new students register last. That's nice taking your harder classes a little later, because you can pick the professor and time you want.

I started out slow my first semester was Eng and Psy and my second semester was Eng and Math. I did really well and it helped prepare me for what college was like after being out of school for 7 years. The next year I took a full coarse load the whol...

My school didn't use formaldehyde, we used a bleach water mixture. I would check with your school.
