2. ER VS ICU NURSING

   JustinAllen replied to Johnny1414's topic in Emergency

   "Which one pays more and works less?" If this made it to your priority list of questions to ask about which one of these two positions were better perhaps you should step back and rethink what's important to you in nursing.

   JustinAllen replied to jessicakay's topic in Oncology

   JessicaKay, My apologies for sounding harsh with my answer. I just feel that it would really be a disservice to you, and your new workmates to accept a position without disclosing the fact that you are pregnant. I am also a new grad and am excited to...

   JustinAllen replied to Inori's topic in NCLEX

   I took the NCLEX on Tuesday and just paid $7.95 for my "unofficial" results. Both these results and the "pop-up" trick indicate that I PASSED! Our school used ATI however it was never really utilized well, and they also provided the 3 day NCLEX prep....

    From what I was told they look at the last 60 questions and you cannot miss one of them. That's a tough way to have to pass.

15. School Rankings for Informatics

    JustinAllen replied to JustinAllen's topic in Informatics

    Well actually my criteria doesn't matter that much :) We all know that some schools are better than others, and while I absolutely agree that you get out what you put into anything...there is a difference between a top-ranked school and one that has ...
