   Hello! I had my prescreening interview today and I think it went well. The nurse managers were very kind and outgoing. It was pretty much all "get to know you" questions. Competition is fierce though >. Best of luck to everyone :-D

   Teaching english in Korea will average around 1800-2000 USD. They give free housing and round trip flight. I also have a lot of family in Korea, so loneliness is not an issue. I think I would be able to save/pay off at least $1000...if not $1500. I'...

    I am actually curious about this. I will be attending for the absn. I feel like I should have applied for the msn program too, ESP. Because no gre is required and I know the whole DNP is creeping up soon too. Any response would be great!

    I got accepted at around 2:40ish PST! My mom and I were in the car talking about how I would have to wait until tomorrow. Then I just got a phone call from a 410 area! My mom started crying and it was crazy...lol. I truly hope everyone else on this f...
