Nurse Extern

I say do it. You will gain so much experience, plus get paid for it. You could work two twelves a week, and still have five days off. I am so glad that I worked as an extern for a year before I graduated. Sometimes I feel like I learned just as much in that year as I did in four years of school.

I agree. I am currently working as a nurse extern on a 23 hour obs floor, and then I will be moved to a specialty area for 5 weeks. I have learned so much from the nurses. Sometimes I wish I had my "summer" back, but I think this experience is invaluable.
