  1. Rn-BSN/MSN...I have a couple questions

  3. HELP!!!! I need your response today!!!!

    Listen to your gut, its telling you this is not safe and you should not work that hall. Tell your boss no and tell your boss what you just told us. If they will not listen to you and force you to that...

    spoiled
  6. Why Bachelors over Associates?!? is it worth it?

    I graduated as ADN and am now working on my BSN. It goes without saying a BSN does have a more well rounded educations. A BSN has to take more prereqs then a ADN. I had to take 6 more prereq for my...

  11. Deciding between ASN or BSN

    I am an ADN and am now working on my BSN. My BSN is taking 4 FULL semesters of work, thats 2 years. And it is costing me 9,000 in tuition alone. I would go straight for the BSN as doing the bridge...
  12. Take it one quater at a time and make an effort to keep it in perspective. Looking at it all at once is overwhelming for anyone. But little by little, not so bad. And just think how fast it will go...
  13. What was your job before you became a nurse?

    Hostest, Buyer, Baker, CNA, LPN, Now
  14. *sigh* no it is not 'deserved' to get a wrap for bad weather. I can not figure out why people like to keep this myth going. We get LESS rain fall then most other major cities...... *sigh* and yes...
  15. ATI Testing...tell me about it

    I took the ATI for my LPN and RN. Both of my classes did very well on both test. One girl didnt but re-took it and did very well the second time and passed the NCLEX first try. If I was you I would...

  17. Just met "Ms. Know It All LPN"

    Hey did you get my know-it-all from my last place I worked at? She to had job-hopped all over the country. The way I dealed with mine is to distance myself from her at all cost. When co-workers vented...
  18. To look for jobs simply visit Seattletimes.com and click jobs. There are Thousands listed for RN's and no I am not over estimating that number. Traffic is bad, but any major city has bad traffic. It...

    Try to stay positive and not 'borrow' trouble till you know your results. You might find some support in the student forum under nclex. I know I spent a lot of time there waiting for my results. I too...

  21. Is an MSN easier to get into than a BSN in CA

    If I had to do it over again i would have kept working on a bachelors degree in another field while I waited to get into RN school. That way I would have been able to go into a MSN program had I...
  22. AHHH nursing school???

    first of all enjoy your last bit of free time before you start school! Make sure to make the time to study and study hard. Nothing pays off like knowing your stuff. I had one quater where I was...
  23. It does not matter one bit as long as the school is approved by the state so you can get your certificate after. Make sure the school is able to do this then I would pick the cheapest and quickest. My...
  24. NCLEX

    Keep in mind that a pass means you only answered around 50 percent of the questions correctly. I left the test site in tears and in shock just knowing I failed at 81 questions. I passed. Try and relax...
