  2. Trouble choosing RPN or RN

    If you want more flexibilty and desire a certain specialty, RN is the way to go. I wouldnt advise anyone to go PN if they have a chance to go RN. PN is a last resort in my opinion (like if you are...

  8. Do you worry you won't get accepted?

  12. Community College Instructor's Qualifications?

    I "think" you can have your BSN to teach but must also be enrolled in a MSN program in order to get a position. Thats what I have been told by past instructors anyway. I plan on teaching at some point...

  21. What would you do?

    I agree. Also, think about auditing or taking a math prep class-ask you advisor which one you would need. Sounds like you need to brush up on your skills. Good
  22. I need support.

    Listen, dont give up hope--even if you DONT get a letter, if you want to be a nurse bad enough you WILL find a way. I have learned this the hard way... I got a totally unexpected acceptance (actually...
  23. what to do about admissions (long)

    Yeah, this is why I want to go into education at some point. There is such a need for educators in Nursing.
