by doing this, does it save you the first 2 years of the bsn program? so you go into it as a transfer student with 2 years left to get the bsn?

I will be in a&pII and statistics! I am neeervous!

the only problem I see is summer courses are shorter, by like 2 months I think. So, your cramming in a full book worth of information in shorter time. I'm taking 9 hours this summer and I know it will be a lot of material... but I am motivated.

I agree with this, it takes a bit of class to be the smartest student. Don't answer every question, even if you know it, give your other classmates time, until you see your teacher struggling for the answer and makes eye contact with you, haha. I just wanted to say, I am a fellow 30 year old student acing my A&P 1 class. I think the class is easy so far, teacher makes it easy. Anyways, I am proud of my A+'s and kind of get a little giddy when he hands the test back. Other classmates ask to see it to find the correct answers to what they got wrong. I find honest joy in my intelligence- and finally DOING SOMETHING with it. BUT, regardless, we are 30... aren't we past the point of truly caring what anyone thinks of us if it is negative!? lol. Let someone compliment me and I will take it all day- "omgosh, thank you"... but it someone throws negativity at me- they become IRRELEVANT to me. So, I even have the awesome rolly backpack that people make fun of because the rolling can be a little loud I guess- I'm just like "I know, I love it so much!" haha

This is only slightly related to the post... like 5% related. In North Carolina, a man was sentenced to 11 to 21 years in prison for making 400+/- bomb threats. Over the summer, this man called numerous businesses in 3 counties with these threats. It was a lot of wal-marts I remember. That is insane, all these places having to shut down and then all the time from the police force! But wow, I hope he gets treatment in prison, because he obviously has a psychological problem. I wish prison's would focus on mental health more. Ehh, I thought it was an interesting story any-hoo!

my nursing school, a CC offering an ADN: I can't remember the EXACT number they gave me for the average.... but it was 72 or 77%, 70-something! I made an 84%.... The nursing adviser said I did not have to take it again, also the proctor said it was the highest score she had personally seen. The minimum score you could make was 63%, but that sure don't mean you'd be accepted. They also stress GPA and do not like seeing any B's. My GPA is 4.0 I will not know about my acceptance until sometime in February. But that is my best answer on my school's average!

Nope, no one(man or woman) needs to tell the pursuer "I'm sorry" or "Thank you", especially when the pursuer is making them uncomfortable, You owe NOTHING to this person, and if they can't get the hint by SILENCE, that is not your fault. Yes, sure, it would be nicest to politely decline, but the pursuer should not expect to be OWED the explanation or the "I'm sorry"'s and "thank you"'s Liiiiiiike, a woman doesn't have to smile, just because you told her to.

I am not in nursing school quite yet, but I feel like you have just saved my life. This is such a great idea! I have a small fear of my weak stomach getting to me when it all starts. Plus, I've had some nurse friends mention the peppermint oil, but here, I feel you "confirmed" it too, and even gave me the necklace idea! Thank you!

the online study guide is amazing, it gives you the materials to know, instead of the book telling you what you should know.....it does only come as a package with the book and the two practice test. it's pricey, but worth it if your really shaky on your material like i was...

my school even has disposable ones for $3, I see it lasting a few uses too, can wipe it clean and as long as I don't rip it..... bought a size too big though

just wanted to update! I took my TEAS on the 18th and made an 84 %, which is in the top 7th % of the nation! whoohoo! or you can say 93% of ppl made the same score or less than mine. The test proctor said she had not personally seen a test score so high! I did study, a few hours one day on the eng usage part and then ALL NIGHT the night before the test for the science, yes I did cram.... still only made a 62 on the science part- but like I said, I just now started bio this semester. 100 on the reading, a 90 on the math, and an 89 on the eng part. I'm stoked! and I don't have to waste the $65 to try a second time!!! wooooo! now, hopefully this gets me in the nursing program!

Where will this decision put DNAPs? Seeing as the doctorate is what most schools are transitioning to? I assume this is why they are requiring the doctorate... to prevent being held back by the lobbying of Anesthesiologists...?

Why unfortunately? I live in NC and only in school....I don't know anything about unions... But it seems everyone in a union on here has higher pay. Anyone care to navigate some positives/negatives about unions?

whew, crisis over! after some very nice emails back and forth, misunderstanding adverted! I will definitely be more careful about "picking my battles", even though this ended up not being one- it gave me so much anxiety, so much so that I didn't want to open my student email again! lesson learned :)
