My sister in law is a practicing RN who informed me that it is extremely important for me to start study all the different medications and side effects now while I am finishing my prerequisites. I enjoy studying nearly any and all medical information that will be beneficial to me in the long run. Are there sites that offer all medications in a list form with side effects were I print out? Can anyone suggest specific things that I need to study now? And where I can locate the specific information? Books? Websites? Etc.

Thank you so much! I'm sorry I did not post the state. I am applying in the state of Kentucky. I called and spoke to someone at the BON in Louisville and she reassured me that I am not the only person to have this situation. Are you familiar with this states policies?

I have a question for anyone familiar with criminal charges and attempting to apply to a nursing program. I was informed today, by an attorney that in order to expunge a charge from 2011 off my criminal record that I have to wait until April 2018. With that being said, I will be graduating with my Associates in Science in December. Initially, I had planned to apply to the nursing program in the fall of 2017. But now that I know it would be best to wait another year, I hate that I feel like I will be wasting unnecessary time just to expunge my record that may possibly be seen either way. I do not like the idea of waiting longer than I had initially planned, but if it means I will not have to tell the Nursing Board of my past than so be it. But regardless, should I just explain everything to my nursing adviser and attempt applying before it is expunged? (2 years to expunge-2 years to complete the program) I hope someone will have some insight on this situation.
