  2. Gateway LPN Fast Track

    boru replied to AZmom's topic in Arizona Nursing

  3. MCCDNP Wait List... a new strategy

    boru replied to boru's topic in Arizona Nursing

  10. Need your input! Trade school or Scottsdale CC

    boru replied to Nurse9481's topic in Arizona Nursing

    Kiki, 1st I guess I would ask how do you know you'll get into Scotsdale CC in about a year? Is it because of your employer's affiliation/agreement with them? If so, I would agree with what most...

    boru replied to boru's topic in Arizona Nursing

    caliotter, yes, I'm pretty sure I've checked into 99% of what's available in the area... my only priority is to sit for the NCLEX so the transfer issue is not a big deal to me... if I went any further...
