7. Asking for letters of recommendation...advice please!

   peachy11 replied to peachy11's topic in General Nursing

   I know, I really wanted to talk to her over the phone and then meet in person. I didn't think I should leave a message just because I am asking her a favor, so i wouldn't expect her to have to return my call. Does that make sense? But, your advice do...

14. Traveling for school??

    peachy11 replied to heathert_kc's topic in General Nursing

    Do you have kids? Family to take care of? Any other responsibilities? If so, you might be pulled in too many directions and it could be too stressful. If not, it is definitely doable. Time management is key!! I like what the other poster said about ...
