1. NELRP 2011

   JennBride replied to nurse79's topic in General Students

   (Jennbride's hubby here) As far as I can tell the state by state theory was a myth I started based on poor wording choice in the slides from the class my wife was in. It made it appear that the state was recieving awards and then handing them out--wh...

   I believe they ask for the full pay off amount so they know precisely how much you owe at that point -- the number is written down so they can multiply it by .3 for your payments for the first year, payments for the second year, and .25 for payments ...

8. Mosby's and Saunder's NCLEX study guides

   JennBride posted a topic in NCLEX

   How important is it for me to use the latest edition of Mosby's or Saunder's NCLEX study guides? I thought the questions change some as the years pass, but would a 2005 edition compared to 2008 or 2009 put me at a large disadvantage? Thanks so much!!...
