Dear VINE WAKAII,

I say GO FOR IT-I'm a new LPN @ 39 years of age!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hey ladies.... thank u for the encouraging words... ... i just hope theyd consider my TOR for the prerequisites so i dont i have to start all over again. Hate algebra.  lol!

Thank u Dr. Tom

Yes, am over the age thing .. coz  i went back to college at 26 and pursue my psychology after falling short of finances when i first entered into college @ 17 yo. Started all over again to earn my current degree. Just trying to see how well i fare anymore when it comes to math and science so that i wish to skip the prerequisites anymore. Going to check with the counsellor soon.

keep them coming....

Teresa and Tom.... u r not only awesome but funny too ...sense of humor is the first sign of  recovery on "phases of reality shock" from the book Transistions and Trends ..... perhaps too early for me to read this book coz iam not even on the 1st step... but its interesting.

anyway, so i have an appointment next week at the community college here for counseling ....TOR evaluation and see things from here.  wish me luck

TeresahRN says ...

Well it's all sibling love for  Tom and I.. But just like any little bro,. he can be a pain sometimes. I'll have Mom speak to him...LOL  

Best of luck on your interview next week. Let us knowhow it goes for  you.. You been through the college bit before, so just continue that way.. I hope they take and give you the credits that you've already taken..

Keep us postedd, Hugs, Teresa

 

 

hold on.... lol! .. is this considered "interview" already? i mean for sure its going to be Q&A scenario but ... am considering it more as a discussion of and/or career advice stage but not the dreaded interview as basis of admittance or passing one of the school requirements. i want to prepare the interview, if any...  i thought id take it easy on this.... what do u think?  

thank u

I too am a little nervous about the interview process. My GPA is 3.6 now (used to have 4.0) and there are other ppl with GPA's higher than mine that did not make it into the program. I work in the ER as a scribe now, so i get to see everything first hand. (the docs i work with even let me participate in the physical exams, reading labs and radiology. I have even done sutures before). I hope that al this gives me a leg up since my GPA is not as high, but I am so afraid that my passion for nursing will come off as boasting, or that they think im just not good enough!
