2. The pay for nurses is NOT that bad

   lexi917 replied to 2bNurseguru's topic in General Nursing

   lexi917 replied to Ehope's topic in General Students

   Hey Ehope, I truly understand how you feel. I got in and a few of my girlfriends didn't get in. I am too, looking for a way to comfort them without making them feel the little nag that they get all the time. Competition into nursing school does ma...

    lexi917 replied to MissDA26's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I don't hate what I'm doing now. I have a great employer and love what I do, but just cant stand a few people I work with. I guess you find that everywhere you go to anyways. But the only thing is I don't see myself doing what I'm doing for the re...

    Hello everyone, I have taken mine in December of 07. The TEAS is not as bad as everyone think it is. It's fairly simple even for those who have been out of school for so long. It's basic, simple questions that you would have from high school. I've...
