Hello, my fellow North Carolinians! I am a native to NC, particularly the raleigh/"triangle" area. It's a wonderful state, happy to be here.

Hello Nc Lad,

Chances of finding a nursing school that doesn't require you to take the SAT or the ACT is probably slim. But these exams aren't really that bad and if you're getting your GED just study a bit harder and take the SAT or ACT soon afterwards. Are you getting your GED through a community college and if so does it have a nursing program? Talk with a counselor there and let them know what your goals are.

Best of luck on ALL your endeavors.

Hello to All,
I'm from Salisbury, NC. I graduated in 2005 and have worked nights on a med surg/oncology floor since graduation. I will be starting an internship program July 14th in the OR. I'm really excited about it. I have wanted to work in the OR since school, but wanted to get some med surg experience before doing so. I was born and raised in Statesville, NC and can't imagine living anywhere else other than NC. It's a great state.
