    Easy? No. Doable without becoming "a nutcase who can't get any sleep?" Certainly. I did what your proposing and much worse and managed to ace the classes and remain sane. It can be done. Be organized,...

    west coast university for second BS ?

    Music in My Heart replied to cascottiegirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Last time I checked they were not accredited. For that reason I would be reluctant to go there. On the other hand, they are approved by the CA BON so if that's where you can get in, you can afford it,...

    Music in My Heart replied to RMCS's topic in General Nursing

    What I've seen is that the buttons start to break over time. Be sure you've considered modularity and ease of replacement. Please don't make it necessary to replace the whole control panel when all...

    Relocation Assistance

    Music in My Heart replied to Queen2u's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Note: My examples were from two industrial companies, not hospitals. To whatever degree relocation is available certainly varies from market to market and hospital to hospital. It will, to a large...

    Music in My Heart replied to Angela.RN2B's topic in General Nursing

    Music in My Heart replied to mzradie's topic in General Students

    I'm happy that you've found a way forward. Keep working hard and ace your prereqs. Most schools won't hold that early work against you since you've done so well through another degree program. I'll be...

    Music in My Heart replied to tishirajan's topic in General Nursing

    I'm a 44-year-old 4th semester nursing student. Age has been a non-factor between my classmates and myself. In the clinical settings, if it's been anything, it's been an asset. I've been treated very...

    Portable, Hand-Held CT Scanner

    Music in My Heart replied to Vito Andolini's topic in General Nursing
