   Hello, and congrats on your decision to pursue nursing! I live in California, so here are my two cents :) I think some of the pros of getting an associate's first include 1) more clinical time- we get a 120 hour one-on-one preceptorship during the la...

4. Are there other options besides nursing?

   ballerinka replied to MeAnurse?'s topic in Pre-Nursing
