Hello! I am seeking advice on what to do. I was previously dismissed from a nursing program due to not passing a course twice. Although there are specific life events that made this time difficult, I do not like being the kind of person to make excus...

Nursing school is hard enough, but I have lost almost every “friend” during nursing school. It started with them making plans and excluding me. Then when I would get invited and they’d make me feel left out. We are all adults but it feels so crappy t...

Taking anatomy and physiology and Microbiology was somewhat of a cardinal sin in my community college. Regardless of the warnings from professors and counselors, I enrolled in AP1 (which I retook) and Microbiology (entirely new to me at the time) dur...

Hello. I’m a senior in high school and I’m having trouble deciding between getting an ASN (ADN) or a BSN first. I always thought that getting an ASN is better because I can work early and it cost less but after looking at the requirements, I realized...

I feel so, so stupid right now. The optimist in me said this entire time that I can handle an occasional bout of violence from a patient. But how would I even know that if I've never been assaulted in any way in my entire life? I am really upset at t...

I just passed the AANP on my first attempt on the 16th. I have been creeping on the message boards during my study time for advice and reassurance, so it's only right that I contribute.
I was absolutely floored at how easy boards were. The quest...

I took the AANP certification and passed. I know if you are a FNP©, you are probably pretty worried about testing, too. Naturally, you've spent much time preparing and are ready to start your career! I know before I tested, I also browsed through the...

Hey everyone! I took the TEAS 3 days ago. I scored a 78 (advanced) which for some may not be great, but the programs I am applying for require proficient or higher so I am psyched! I remember searching frantically through this website just to get som...

It's almost three weeks past my graduation from nursing school, and I'm still fielding questions as to why I can't come out and play. Yes, I'm still studying. No, I can't tell you when my NCLEX is; I've heard it's bad luck. I swear, that's just what ...

I'm a mom of 3 kids, and was in the middle of my nursing program when I had some extreme babysitter issues and could not keep attending classes. It's been a couple years and I think we are in a better spot for me to try again but I'll have to reapply...

Hi everyone, I have been reading posts and things about students failing nursing school. Very few I have noticed win appeals or have a leg to stand on when they don’t take accountability for their own failures as well. I failed my clinical portion o...
