  4. RNC-OB study materials

    Linfield has changed their curriculum and increased their clinical hours. I graduated in December 2011 and all of the students starting Fall 2011 and afterwards are using the new curriculum and increased clinical hours, though I don't know what they ...
  14. ITT Tech's New Program???

    Wow, really? That's pretty incredible to me. What hospital is this? I graduated in December 2011 and the majority of my cohort members have not been able to find jobs. We're all second degree students and have our BSN's. The market is practically ...
