    queen777 replied to raebabelvn's topic in General Students

    I really dispise the term "weeding out the bad students". I agree with some of what you said, but to me this was the "right time" for me to go back to school. Family, husband or not I was so ready to...

    queen777 replied to raebabelvn's topic in General Students

    I hate to burst your bubble but I had never met so many "stab you in back" women since I started nursing. Meaning a whole lot of nurses act the same way! And if something happens, don't expect them...
