    For me...Yes. I never studied in LVN school and passed with a 3.0 and now I am in my second half of my first semester of my LVN to RN program and I am hitting the books. The content is the same, but they require to think deeper and know a lot more.

  13. Which would you choose?

    I would jump all over the school job.. if the money is the same and commute is shorter and you get benefits...I say go for it.. The surgeon office sounds good, but you will do a lot of front office work and I am not sure if that is what you are looki...
  14. I agree with the other posters. I went to school in S.F. and lived in Oakland and my commute was WAY longer than 20-30min.. I had to be at school by 8am in SF... If I did not pick up carpoolers to cross the bay bridge, I would have to leave my house...
  15. Current nclex pn questions
