    AccelCNL replied to StophJS's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I say take a really good stock of what you want to do. Nursing school is not for everyone and the job outlook is not as sunny as it is perceived. However, if you are serious about going back to...

    AccelCNL replied to destinihylton's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Is my planned Pre-nursing Fall 2013 schedule crazy/impossible?

    AccelCNL replied to heres117's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took Biochem and APII in the same semester along with other classes for my major ( I took 20 credits that semester). I took it and got great grades. I say it depends on your work ethic. Of course,...

    Decisions, Decisions.....

    AccelCNL replied to beachgirl0605's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That really depends on a lot of things. First, how is the job market for LPNs and RNs in your area. After that, do hospitals in your area prefer bachelor-prepared RNs or ADN- RNs? How competitive is...
