  9. I mean, for example, for me to get my real estate license, there are classes that begin at all times of the year, every several months. Do LPN programs always start at fall or spring semester time? Are there any that start at random months of the y...

  14. Second Degree in Nursing?

    I also have a BA in Psychology and was in graduate school for social work but dropped out during the first semester once hearing all the horror stories of MSW's in actual practice. I have gained quite an interest in nursing because it seems like a m...

    I am not a nurse nor in nursing school yet but I can tell you from having lived in the area for my entire life that it is a good hospital. Tons and tons of births there. Robert Wood Johnson is also in New Brunswick and RWJ seems to handle most othe...

  19. Nurses with bipolar disorder?

    I am not a nurse nor yet in nursing school but I did apply recently and I wanted to say this thread has made me feel a lot better. I have suffered from panic attacks my whole life and have been wondering if this will prevent me from pursuing a caree...
  20. I get panic attacks whenever I feel sick to my stomach? I don't like when other people vomit either. In fact I have never seen someone else vomit except on tv so I really don't know how I would react. I have been researching nursing and don't think...
  21. Do you think I could be a nurse if...

    I am not sure I suppose I could make a point to work on it. I think it is a mental health issue. I have experienced this since I was a child. Whenever I feel nauseated I have an incredible urge to go home to my own house and call my mom, lol. I g...
  22. Acceptance rates for Accelerated BSN programs?
