Hi All!

I'm a crazy father of 2 ex-premed who just recently turned down Northwestern to go into a RN program.

I already have an Associate in Science, but I'll be getting another ADN and then go to a 4 yr school.

When I went to an info session about the RN program ill be trying to get into, out of like 70 ppl only 5 were guys.

So I want to know are there any men out there?

Hello all...

Hi all,

I'm new here also. I will be starting LPN school in Sept. I have been out of school for 7 yrs. I wanted to go the Accelerated BSN route but don't have the pre-req's. I have a BS in Business, so the transition without pre-req's makes me nervous, so please pray for me. I intend to do RN bridge upon completion & press on to MSN. God bless. :specs:

I'm only on page 45 of this thread, but I thought I'd chime in before I keeled over from exhaustion...

I'm a 24yo guy, failed pre-med who's spent the past two years working as a research lab tech. I just got into DePaul's Graduate-Entry Master's program, and my plan is to eventually become an NP.

Forgot to mention that my original degree from two years ago is a BS in Molecular and Cell biology. So, for all those taking prereqs who need help telling an actin filament from the golgi apparatus from an indel, I'm your guy.

It's really nice to see so many guys that are into Nursing! One of the most exciting thing's about this profession is that there are endless opportunities!! I'm a 24 year professional dancer with a BFA in dance and am looking forward to becoming an ARNP and or CRNA!

still have space for another newcomer?

I'm only 18, and coming from a family of nurses, nursing was not that big of a stretch.

Two and a half more semesters until I graduate (I refuse to consider our Intensive Clinical as a full semester for we do not have exams, so it's only recognized as a half semester), but hopefully I'll be a nurse by 2009!

Well out here in Phoenix AZ there are 5/35 guys in this 2 yr RN pgm; we just finished the obstetrics rotation and had absolutely NO problems, nowadays at least in this part of the country, nobody even bats an eye that guys are involved in what was historically "female" jobs...... there are moments of awkawrdness during the shave n foley part of the job, but no worries, people just want competent workers. :cool:
