  10. Straight to BSN or do ADN then RN-BSN online?

    Well.............if it were me, I would just bite the bullet and do the BSN. But moving along in steps, is not always a bad thing either. Do you have a lot of gen. ed

  12. I would keep going with the regular school if you're that close. If I even had a chance of getting into a regular nursing program, I would have. In my area, Excelsior is not well respected and I from...

  22. Does this sound right?

    Hi! I was very excited to be offered a new 'FLEX' position in home care. Great hours and wages. Since it is a flex position, they expect for me to submit a monthly availability calender. Then the days...
  23. Does this sound right?
