  5. Done in May!! apply for a job or apply for school!?!?!

    dannibee replied to Brittanya34's topic in General Students

    I would say do both, just in case. I don't know how the job situation is for new grads in your area. I think the ideal thing would be to get a job at a hospital and let them pay for your continued...

    dannibee replied to healthybee's topic in General Students

    dannibee posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    dannibee replied to scrublifenurse10's topic in General Students

    dannibee replied to %63theend's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I did it and it was tough! Especially at the end. I also had a 9 month old baby at the time. It was worth it though because now I'm entering the 3rd semester of an RN program and I'm almost done!...

    dannibee replied to jimbojonesey's topic in General Students
