   JKR_SB replied to MentalHealthCNLam's topic in California

   As far as I know, things aren't great for new RNs in general and CSUDH is no exception. You have to start networkinig day 1. During my interview I asked if they provide help finding jobs after graduation, and she said no. They expect the students ...

   A couple people worked a few hours while in the program, but for most of us it was nearly impossible. When they tell you that you won't have time to work, they really mean it.

   JKR_SB replied to MentalHealthCNLam's topic in California

   JKR_SB replied to MiahMSN's topic in California

   Hi Genzy, I am also a Gaucho (though many years ago)! I would talk to them at the workshop about the SBCC patho class. I think they would *prefer* you take it at CSUDH, because I (and others) have received mixed messages about SBCC class. They may ...

8. Question for all those who have taken or will take pathophysiology from SBCC

   JKR_SB replied to wannabe an rn's topic in California
