I am writing this with tears steadily steaming down my face. You are an inspiration to many. I truly hope that you know that you are a valedictorian, YOU both have overcome. God bless you and I wish you all much success, love and happiness in the f...
Hi, I used Thelans critical care nursing textbook. If you can check out Barnes and Noble or any local bookstore, there sometimes you can even use the book they have and save your money! Good luck.
Hi, I took the course because while I was an aide, one of the nurses swore by it...but I did see at least two questions that came directly from there. Also it is relatively inexpensive and since it is online you can access it from basically anywher...
Start applying early. I graduated in May 2006 and our school always hosts a nursing career fair mid February. We were expected to have current resumes handy for the date. As far as I know most of us got interviews early on. Good luck to you all!

Start to finish 4 years traditional BSN program, I decided to enjoy my summers so I did not sign up for ANY classes! I graduated in May of 2006 and didn't take my boards until August of 2006. Did I mention that I love my summers!

So sorry to hear what happened to you... one of my very good friends was academically dismissed from our BSN program during our senior year. She is now an LPN working on her RN. How far along were you? Are your pre-reqs completed/in good standing?...

I like the GAP BODY nude underwear, I wore them while I was in school and continue to wear them at work. You can catch a great sale, 5 for $20 dollars. Peaches brand uniform pants has great "no see thu" items available as well. Give them a try!
