  1. Should I stay or should i go?

    Well, it can't hurt to investigate this other opportunity a bit more. I'd go for the interview, tour the unit, ask lots of questions and then decide. Until you're actually offered the job, you don't...

  5. If you cold called nurse recruiters, etc

  6. NICU in my future?

    I agree a lot with what a previous poster has said about focusing on getting through school. However, I also felt as you did at the beginning of Nursing school that NICU was probably what I wanted to...
  7. NCLEX review books

    I primarily used Saunders to study for and pass the NCLEX (just this past week). I also used Saunders to study during nursing school but I had the 3rd edition (the 4th is the most recent one) and it...

  11. Looking for LPN school in Colorado

    It may be difficult to be accepted into Regis or CU with a 3.0 in pre-req's...not trying to discourage you, but the competition is very tough. I would apply, but in the meantime see if you can retake...

  15. Gain or Lose Weight?

    I lost 20 pounds the first 15 weeks of nursing school. I had heard about people gaining a lot of weight and it scared me to death because I needed to lose some from having a baby anyway. So I...

    NCLEX pass rates for both schools are very high, I believe they go back and forth as to which is higher. I know that the Regis accelerated program has an almost 100% first time pass rate. It is...
  18. Concorde

    The Americorps was all done through Regis, they have a specific person there who coordinates everything. About a week after we started school an email was sent out to everyone about an information...
  19. Concorde

    I'm not sure what your definition of a "Fast" degree is, but based on your response we are not talking about the same thing. We are discussing Accelerated BSN programs. Both CU and Regis are...
  20. Concorde

    I just completed the ABSN at Regis, so of course I am biased. However, I didn't even apply to CU because 11 months (Regis) vs. 19 months (CU) pretty much decided it for me. The money you will make as...

  23. clinicals, why are the nurses such *******.

    I agree with this last statement. As nursing students, we are supposed to smile and be okay with whatever treatment we receive. We should be grateful even when being treated like a piece of crap....
  24. Which is the best route to take for my BSN?

    If you go the CC route, you just have to be prepared to wait around for a long time. I believe the wait is 2-3 yrs. Then you only have an Associate's degree and it will take you even more time to get...
  25. Nurse Salary vs. Teacher Salary?

    I know of many teachers that have left teaching to become nurses. I don't know any nurses that have left nursing to become elementary or high school teachers. I'm sure they exist, but speaking from...
