This is more of just a general rant about whats going on with nursing school and the nursing field lately. It absolutely drives me CRAZY that its so competitive to get into a nursing school bc of how many applicants there are. Normally I would just...

I just wanted to say, ive been a CNA for 6 years and Im just now going to school for my RN but you saying there is no benefit from being a CNA before becoming an LPN or RN is false. Ive talked to my bosses at the Rehab facility i work at now and the...

It depends if you want to get your BS or your AD. There is obviously a pay difference, although not a MAJOR one, if you get your bachelors vs associates. Central is a good school, although the nursing program is basically brand new. Ive heard good ...

I just withdrew from Goodwin, they are EXTREMELy expensive, taking 3 classes a semester will run u about $6,000 and it keeps going up thanks to their new building that they have to pay off or maintain. And they also work on a "point system", its the...
