I am a veteran of the Army (former Army Ranger) with a business degree and now a graduate of Bergen Community Colleges RN program. I have been happily married for more than 10 years and have 4 beautiful children.
Sorry, this is why I am going to deal with just one person. If I responded to each and every person that asked me for copies, how long do you suppose that would take me to do? I just don't have the time. When I served as student nursing association p...
BTW Eddie, if and when we do meet up, alot of the info and material that I let you in on is going to become your responsibility to share with your classmates as you see fit. I just dont have the time to deal with each person individually. We will ta...
Sorry it has taken me so long to reply. I just saw this post. The books can wind up being as expensive as the course itself (thus why I am never selling any of them). I wouldn't advise anyone to sell their books either. I remember some people after g...
That sounds about right. I was one of those attending the nursing pinning ceremony last Thusday and as the former President of the Student Nursing Association, I can tell you that this is the norm for each entering class that is entering level 1. For...

Sorry guys but lets take a step back and take a breath. Dont let me get you nervous before you've done anything. You have to remember. Class and clinical is only 4 days a week. That gives you 3 days a week that you know you can study and get your wor...

You will also hear from many a Professor that if you currently are working, it is strongly advised that you don't, lol. The program covers alot of material in a very short amount of time (we take the same exact NCLEX exam as those that have completed...

Class on lecture days can range from 6:00PM-9:30PM (which for the most part is adhered to but you will have some classes that run late) and on clinical days can go from 5:30PM-10:00PM (but depending upon your Professor and location, can go until 11:0...
