    LMRN10 replied to j3yang21's topic in Illinois Nursing

    LMRN10 replied to NICUplease's topic in General Students

    LMRN10 replied to Wooji13's topic in Illinois Nursing

    I've been trying to figure out the same thing, but from what someone else said, we shouldn't have problems finding something when we graduate. I won't have any experience other than clinicals when I...

  14. Online CPR course, are they acceptable???

    LMRN10 replied to bobs201's topic in General Students

    LMRN10 replied to ChicagoRN2010's topic in Illinois Nursing

    I responded to your other post in the other board as well... I may be way off, but I NCLEX, I believe, would be the same all-around. It may be that specific schools require you to take the CNA course...

    LMRN10 replied to lilbitloa's topic in General Students

    LMRN10 replied to mrs obie's topic in General Students

    I would go ahead and deal with it now. If not, you'd end up waiting a very long time. Better to have a hand that is not in pain than deal with it while working with patients. Best of

  23. Is the NLN Test Hard?

    LMRN10 replied to copelald's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It really depends on who you ask. I personally didn't think it was "easy". I thought the Math and Science were not so bad (and studying the NLN Pre-entrance exam book over and over helped me out...
