If you went to Trident Tech. can you tell me if it's possible to do all the nursing classes in a year? I've taken every single class except the NUR classes and clinicals. I got in for Fall 2009 and I'm just wondering if I'm going to have to spend 2 y...

Hi all. desperately need some help here. i'm a nursing student and my father was diagnosed with cirrhosis of the liver last month. he was in the hospital for a week and had 4 liters of fluid drained due to ascetis. he's lost alot of weight and is jus...

Thanks so much for all of your responses! It's really helped :) I can't wait to start and get this show on the road.

I can't give advice on the professional aspects of your problem, but the emotional concerns me. I really think you should talk to a therapist about how you have been feeling. My sister used to be constantly overwhelmed about a situation she was in th...

Hi all, I need to vent and any advice would be appreciated. This is a bit complicated so please read the whole post before responding. OK J In my area there are 3 nursing programs. One is too expensive, the second is an ADN with a waiting list, and t...

Thanks for the advice :) there's only one direct-msn program and its not really an option. I have recently been thinking about moving away, finishing my bachelor's (would take about a year), and going to PA school. I planned on doing NP anyway. If I...

thanks so much for all the kind words . Those are the only programs in my area, so if I look further out I would have to move out of state. I'm more of a city girl and the only thing here for me is my family. I had really hoped to do school here tho...

Hi, The GRE is required because it's an accelerated BSN. From what I hear they rely heavily on it in their admissions decisions. You do the first 2 years at another school, finish 60 hrs of pre-req's and then you can transfer in. The University is m...

I went to high school with a girl named Vagina. Everyone said it was pronounced Vah-geena similar to Regina. I don't care it's spelled vagina. v-a-g-i-n-a ...vagina. LOL. Poor Vagina .

i don't think this will go through, so i am not upset about that...i'm annoyed at the way society sees nursing. i have never meet anyone that has said "wow you're in school for nursing!"...like it was impressive. most people have no idea how hard it ...

i went to high school with a girl named Vagina...pronounced Va-Gina...so sad. my mom worked at a hospital years ago and heard Placenta. i've also met a girl named Darling and one named Precious. crazy.

rather than relying on people's individual opinions i think you should go to nursevillage.com they have an article on orlando under "best cities for nurses" the direct link is http://www.nursevillage.com/nv/content/personalside/travel/orlando/index.j...

just a heads up...HCA only pays up to $6000 for the length of your nursing program. i know because i decided not to move back to NYC and am opting for florida instead to be closer to my dad (in SC) who needs a liver transplant. I got one of the HCA a...

i took A&P I last fall semester and am taking II this summer...my final semester average in I was a 100 (lowest grade was a 96 plus got all the extra credit). i also tutored 2 girls in my class and they brought they're grades up significantly. if...

yes. i am so sorry too for the rude response! slovenia is between austria and croatia. i have a friend from nearby hungary and the question doesn't surprise me because alot of their practices are very different from the US. just because we may not un...

:balloons: congrats!!!:balloons:

i'm a christian, but not in the conventional sense...at the core i am christian, but i am influenced by aspects of buddhism, judaism, catholicism and being raised as a southern baptist. i love the bible, but don't take it literally. we are all unique...

thanks everyone!!! we are considering the living donor option...so hopefully that might work out. his sister already offered. the "jerk" doctor has since been replaced thank goodness and now my dad has wonderful doctors working with him. the tough th...

Hi, i'm thinking about moving to Atlanta and I was wondering what ya'll thought were the best ADN programs in the Atlanta area that don't have too bad of a waitlist. I live in Charleston SC right now and I was going to move to NYC, but my father just...

thanks so much i really appreciate it

By far, in my humble opinion, West Ashley is the best suburb. It's the best deal in terms of price, safety, location and beautiful houses. So anyway in West Ashley its 15 minutes to downtown charleston and north charleston. mt pleasant, james island ...

your best bet is talking to a casting agency...but extra work sucks...yes they pay you $200 -$250 but that is for the whole day which is usually 12 hours of just standing around waiting. i know lots of people who do it (non-nurses make $150) and they...

Don't know about being a CRNA out there, but I spent a month in Hawaii last year mostly on Oahu. I did take an extended tour of all of the cities on the Big Island. I spent time in Hilo and it's cool, but VERY different than Oahu. Oahu is gorgeus and...

wow...love this article. i want to be a CRNA so it gives me hope...anyway i'm moving back to NYC in august, but where i am right now in SC i've heard that MUSC is being a little more lenient than a lot of schools because not that many people are appl...

hey you'd know me too...i'll be there in august.
