3. I hate to say this, but I think it's true.....

   Liberum Vir replied to PopeJane3rd's topic in General Nursing

   The way I see it, someone who decides to pursue nursing school "for the money and security" can certainly be a good and solid nurse. My only concern with the recent influx of students that are interested in nursing for economic reason is burn-out. I ...

9. Med Law & Ethics vs. Statistics

   Liberum Vir replied to kalley's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I have taken neither of the two classes you are asking about, so I can't really provide any information on which to take. I can talk about online courses though. One of the major differences with online vs classroom is simple time management. I found...

11. Books and those accepted for Spring

    Liberum Vir replied to cardschicarn's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Get a book list, and if you know who your professors will be, make contact with them, and ask if they mind you using older editions of books. Most of my professors didn't mind me using an older edition as many times the book won't change significantl...
