I waited to take NCLEX because I had no choice. The day before graduation, my husband got laid off. With 3 kids, his last paycheck had to go to stretch as far as possible. That wouldn't have been possible if we had spent half of it ($320) for my tes...
I am applying to an online program to get my BSN and MSN. There are so many options now. Many 4 yr Universities now offer an online RN-BSN/MSN program, and many many many are less than 20K. There are several who offer the RN-BSN for around 7-8K. It j...
As an older "new grad", I'd like to put in my two cents here. I graduated in June, took boards in December. I followed my instructors' and preceptors' advice, and began putting in applications the month before graduation. Primarily at the hospital sy...

UTA is one of the colleges that made it to my top 5 for RN-BSN. Please keep us posted on your journey to help those of us "on the fence" to make a decision. Thanks!
I pulled up the info on Georgia Southern RN-BSN/RN-MSN online program. In their application packet is curriculum checklist. It says on the checklist that Chemistry with lab is "required for this degree". Thought you might want to know.

Expect it to take anywhere from a week to 6 weeks to get your Authorization to Test letter. Then, depending on where you test, the first available appointment may not be for several weeks. I paid all my fees the 10th of October, went for my fingerpri...
I'm getting ready to take my NCLEX exam in a few weeks. I have been using the individualized study plan created at the ATI Live Review at my school. I have also used a few other study materials, but I have primarily focused on my ATI study plan. Thos...
