Dont You need your CNA to Be A RN LPN its They Stepping Stone

for a lot of schools you do, you can't even get into a program if you're not one but not everywhere. but this is the coli, if you're not making a ton of money doing a job, it's trash.
:russ:
Right. It's not that hard to get into Nursing school.
My boys sister goes to UAB and managed to slide in this year and she's nowhere near among the best students I know.
3.0 and solid EC's and you're fine.
Can't do that, you should look into another career.

some people get lucky, a lot of people don't get in their first time, it doesn't mean they can't get in, they wouldn't even be put into the drawing if they aren't qualified, there just aren't enough spaces for everyone to get in, so they have to wait their turn. Being a cna/lvn/medical assistant gives you experience so when you do get in, clinicals will be easier for you. I swear talking yall is like talking to retards. You guys clearly don't know how these programs work but you're trying to talk shyt. :dead:

People try to put other people down to make themselves feel better. The guy that goes to UCLA described these programs as "bottom of the barrel" two year programs. There is absolutely nothing wrong with community college (which is where my sister started). Not everyone is ready OR can afford 4-year colleges off the bat. If we want to talk about school prestige, my undergraduate and graduate institution shyts on his so he really shouldn't go there.

No not really
Reason most people start as a cna is to gain experience which some nursing schools ask for. But any experience in the medical field will also help.
There are also many routes to get into nursing so that's good.

I remember running into mad people trying to go into nursing, yet struggling with INTRO bio, chem, and anatomy :dead:

Chick I dated briefly last year told me she was a RN.

I figured cool. Chick had some big titties. No kids. Good job. :win:

A month into us being together we come out her apt in the morning and her car is gone.:wtf:
I am feeling like shyt because we had went to this lounge the night before and got fukked up. I drove us home in her whip and I was not sure that I set the alarm.:lupe:

Me - We need to call the cops ma. :skip:

Her - Hold up. .Lemme call my loan people right quick first. :ehh:

Me - :wtf::wtf::wtf::wtf::wtf::wtf:




Apparently. . . Unbeknownst to me. They have a demonic loan company here where you can use your car as collateral. . Even when you are not done paying on the car??:dwillhuh: So its not a title loan. She is still financing her car. . They give you a loan using your financed car as collateral. . And will snatch that bytch if you dont pay.


So we go to this spot. . She is busy going off in my car talking about she got a loan and she was a lil late but they cant take her car. . Im like yo. . if that really happened then you can press charges. . We get there and its all over their literature. . shyt. Its on signs on the wall. YOU DO NOT NEED A CAR TITLE. etc. . Im looking at her like :childplease:




Another thing. . Two weeks later we are sitting at her house and the lights go out. :sitdown:
She is like. . Can you take me to the pawn shop. I want to pawn my tv right quick. I am like hold the fukk up. :shaq2: You are a RN! No kids. You have a lil one bedroom apartment. You smoke a lil weed but nothing crazy. Where the hell is your money going?:beli:


She played dumb. . .. The clincher was my sister n law. She moved here from PA with my brother. She just got her second masters and is a Director of Nursing at a big hospital down here. She wanted to meet my chick. A fellow nurse. . My girl kept ducking her. My sister n law looked her up. Apparently its real easy. She comes to me like. . . Sis n Law - .Um. . General?? :lupe:

Me - :myman: Aiyo whats up.

Sis n Law - I was getting worried cause your girl never returns my calls and when she is over here she always makes a excuse to leave when she sees me. So I looked her up in the nursing database. :sas2:

Me - Word??:what:

Sis n Law - She aint no nurse. :sas1:


Me - :snoop:





I asked her about it. . .She came clean. Ma is a CNA. She got so used to telling the lie. . And to make matters worse she lost her job during our first month together. .Cause she was busy laying up with me. Which was not my fault. I still went to work every day. :smugdraper:


I dumped her on Thanksgiving. :camby:


The penniless chick came to my job and keyed my car and flattened a tire. :damn:

99% are CNA/PCT - which is basically the low paying dirty hardest work. Some are LPN, a few 2 year RN's, and even fewer 4 year are RN's.

You're talking about individuals who took six years to match into a program. There's being competitive, and there's being in over your head.
You shouldn't have to apply more than three times to be accepted into a decent nursing program.
Either one is overshooting or they're simply an incompetent candidate, which is why they're finding their app at the bottom of the pile.
Apply smartly with a 3.0 and it's not an issue, and if you can't obtain a 3.0+, you shouldn't be applying in the first place.


I swear talking yall is like talking to retards. You guys clearly don't know how these programs work but you're trying to talk shyt. :dead:


Needless edit to include that, but if you'd prefer to be a c*nt about it and make it personal, we can go tit for tat, too.
I'm a medical student, which means my competition and my educational experience was a lot more rigorous than Biology 101.
And come third year, will continue to be a lot more taxing than you or your friends who get to pass out meds and change diapers on incontinent patients during clinicals .
I come from a family of nursers and doctors - there's isn't a damn thing you could tell me. Take it down a notch, pull the stick out of your ass, and stay in your lane.

I always give people the benefit of the doubt first year.
University typically needs a little adjustment period, especially if you were never to studious type.
Add in gunners setting the grading curves and huge classrooms and it can catch you off guard.
But I'm with you. If you're having to retake Gen Bio multiple times at your average public university, you definitely may need to reconsider alternatives.

I was debating on enrolling in a cna program. I might do it since my work schedule allows me to do things during the day. I've worked as a personal assistant already & the program is like 7 weeks, I mean why not?

They ain't making 22-30 a hr. In Louisiana where I'm at CNAs make about 8-11 an hr. Lpn'n make about 12-17 and RNs make about 25-35 an hr. I work in the the lab as a MLS and we make the same as the RNs

What type of education or certificate u needed to be a MLS?? Im a lab analyst in a food lab and thinking of crossing over to a medical lab cause of more jobs available
