  2. Any recent Georgia Perimeter students here?

    fazeila921 posted a topic in Georgia Nursing

    I've read the threads on this site about how bad GA Perimeter's nursing program is. I am taking pre-reqs there now and not sure if I will be going to nursing school in GA (may relocate) but it's still...

    fazeila921 replied to grapenuts's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I'm taking my pre-reqs at GPC now. Can someone tell me which instructors are good and which ones to avoid for A&P1, 2 and Micro? I prefer to take classes at Lawrenceville which is closest to my...

  4. School in GA, license in NY?

    fazeila921 posted a topic in New York Nursing

    I live in GA and am debating whether or not to go to nursing school in GA or in NY. I plan to move to NY in 2-3 yrs depending on that decision. It is easier for me to go to school in GA since I'm...

  5. Accelerated Nursing programs in Georgia

    fazeila921 replied to Dinma123's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Georgia Perimeter college has an accelerated RN program. You graduate with an associates degree. It's not really accelerated. You do the same 4 semesters as the regular program but it starts in the...

    fazeila921 posted a topic in Texas Nursing

    Hello Texas nurses, Any of you have experienced working in FL and/or GA? Is there any difference in the work environments, for example, nurse/patient ratios, overall satisfaction, the pay? I am not a...

  8. Regardless of cost- which is the 'fastest' RN school program? (ATL area)

    fazeila921 replied to dreamon's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Okay, so here's my question. How did they do it? How did they support themselves (and kids) while going to nursing school full time? I want to go to nursing school and haven't quite figured out how...

  9. Is it difficult to find a job in ATL?

    fazeila921 posted a topic in Georgia Nursing

    We all hear about the nursing shortages but in some states, new grads have a hard time finding a job. Sometimes hospitals just want nurses with a BSN vs. ADN. I will be getting a 2nd degree to go...

  10. Is it difficult to find a job in ATL?

    fazeila921 replied to fazeila921's topic in Georgia Nursing

    thanks Rollie. I just wanted to add that i do plan on getting my BSN eventually but want to get working as a nurse as soon as possible, so for me, ADN will be the way to go. My expectation is to...

  11. Do Nurses STILL want to marry Doctors?

    fazeila921 replied to showbizrn's topic in General Nursing

    LMAO....this thread is hilarious! I think probably women that are NOT nurses still fantasize about marrying a doctor. I have a friend that is actually a hospital administrator and she is on a...

  12. ATTN: bay area RN new grads.. Were you able to land a new grad job?

    fazeila921 replied to pogiboy67's topic in California Nursing

    I think the "problem" is that CA has increased salaries to such a level that it is attracting a large number of people to pursue nursing, and thereby reducing any shortages. Trust me, if you lived in...

  13. lifestyle def not for me...what can i do?

    fazeila921 replied to MsGolightlyRN's topic in Nursing Career

    Girl, just suck it up for six more months and then you can start applying for jobs elsewhere. You'll have a steady day shift in no time. You also are probably still trying to get used to the job...

  14. **Is it really THAT bad!!??**

    fazeila921 replied to SDSoccerChick32's topic in Nursing Career

    I've been reading about all of the negativity for quite some time and i have to admit I *WAS* scared to death. I finally contacted a local hospital (i'm in Atlanta right now) and asked if I could...

  15. U.S. Nursing Salary CHANGES?!

    fazeila921 replied to Future-nurse's topic in General Nursing

    Not to go off topic here but you should really reconsider buying real estate right now, whether in the US or UK. Both are in the middle of a bubble and prices are expected to drop. I work as a...

  16. U.S. Nursing Salary CHANGES?!

    fazeila921 replied to Future-nurse's topic in General Nursing

    The original poster had a valid question and yet i see alot of cynical remarks on here. the same question has crossed my mind as well. I don't think she meant the $10 per hour literally but...

    fazeila921 replied to jerrylundergard's topic in Florida Nursing

    Wow, i didn't know they would put a school on probation after bad grades for 3 yrs. that makes a difference. that sets a trend of consistently poor performance. Geez, and as much money as Univ of...

  18. Am I crazy for accepting the invite to U of Miami accelerated nursing?

    fazeila921 replied to jerrylundergard's topic in Florida Nursing

    You have a good point, jerrylundergard. also, does anybody know what is considered a low passing % on the NCLEX? That is subjective. I've never been to nursing school but from what i hear, you...

  19. Am I crazy for accepting the invite to U of Miami accelerated nursing?

    fazeila921 replied to jerrylundergard's topic in Florida Nursing

    Well if they are on probation for 2 yrs, then most likely you should be safe to finish up before then since you did say you start in May 08. I'm actually going to visit the school in about a week...

    fazeila921 replied to fazeila921's topic in Georgia Nursing

    fazeila921 replied to phosophorus's topic in Florida Nursing
