1. UTHSC FALL 2015

   futureRNhope replied to futureRNhope's topic in Tennessee

   Sorry for the late response! I just finished my first semester and while it is hard I really do like it! The faculty, for the most part, is AWESOME. The fast pace can be a little stressful though. However, the major downside to the program is just ho...

2. Which laptop/tablet should I get for nursing school?

   futureRNhope replied to lizlopez0253's topic in General Students

   I also LOOOOVVVVEEEEE my MacBook Pro, but if you're looking for something light then maybe the tablet is the way to go.

3. Does my RACE matter when applying to Nursing Programs?

   futureRNhope replied to LinaJill123's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Yea sure. Sounds like you're back pedaling. At least own up to your opinion (no matter how bigoted it may be).

4. Does my RACE matter when applying to Nursing Programs?

   futureRNhope replied to LinaJill123's topic in Pre-Nursing

   So who,according to you, is the most racist group in America, Jory?

5. Does my RACE matter when applying to Nursing Programs?

   futureRNhope replied to LinaJill123's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I know that this might be hard for you to come to terms with, but did you ever think that maybe...just maybe the job went to the BEST man for the job, regardless of race? *drops mic*

6. Is this messed up?

   I'm assuming OP meant that mid 30's is "up there" in regards to child-bearing age...

7. ADN vs BSN Battle

   futureRNhope replied to Mommy_RN1211's topic in ADN/BSN

   Your "line cook" example actually does NOT work in this sense. A line cook requires very little beyond basic training which is why only experience would matter. Nursing is a far more complex profession and should be regarded as such. I take it that y...

8. ADN vs BSN Battle

   futureRNhope replied to Mommy_RN1211's topic in ADN/BSN

   Based on the fact that those with a BSN have a higher level degree, yes their STARTING pay should be higher! Then, as time goes on, experience should then lead to raises for both those with BSNs and ADNs.

9. ADN vs BSN Battle

   futureRNhope replied to Mommy_RN1211's topic in ADN/BSN

   How do figure that it should take 5+ years to obtain a BSN??

10. ADN vs BSN Battle

    futureRNhope replied to Mommy_RN1211's topic in ADN/BSN

    Well your Bachelor's in another field has no standing in the nursing realm...great that you have it, but no it doesn't have much standing in this situation.

11. ADN vs BSN Battle

    futureRNhope replied to Mommy_RN1211's topic in ADN/BSN

    It has nothing to do with us needing to "validate" ourselves. It's just simple: if I have a higher level degree than you, then yes, I feel as if I am more educated in THAT FIELD. Not that I'm smarter than you necessarily, just more educated in that r...

12. ADN vs BSN Battle

    futureRNhope replied to Mommy_RN1211's topic in ADN/BSN

    Well I know from actually speaking to nurses in my area that hospitals are beginning to make that salary difference, so getting a BSN is definitely in my favor. Hopefully more cities/states do the same. Those earning a higher degree deserve higher pa...

13. ADN vs BSN Battle

    futureRNhope replied to Mommy_RN1211's topic in ADN/BSN

    Well I will be going for my BSN so I may be slightly biased lol. On this site I actually see more of BSN bashing than ADN. It seems as if it's okay for ppl to say things such as "BSN's are a waste of money", "We're all nurses in the end", "The ADN pr...

15. HELP: How Extensive Are Hiring Background Checks?

    futureRNhope replied to khaleesikitten's topic in General Students

    I was only speaking in regards of the portion that I put in bold. So YES, we ARE just going to disagree on that statement. And I don't think I'm better than anyone. You throwing in how long you have been a LVN made you sound as if your opinion was so...
