  3. FAFSA

    Destination1 replied to Tricia76's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    Did you mean he made to much in 2010? The fafsa only goes on the prior years income. Also are you saying you cant enroll because you cant afford it or the school will not let you enroll because you do...

  4. Need advice choosing where to take RN pre-requ. courses OKC Area

    Destination1 replied to Oknursinggirl's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

  8. LPN and RN-What does this mean?

    Destination1 replied to handyrn's topic in General Nursing

    the most obvious example would be working outside your scope of practice as an lpn. if youve worked as an rn for a while i could imagine it would be a simple mistake to make. especially if you move to...

    Destination1 replied to us2uk4u's topic in General Nursing

  13. Critical thinking, Where is it?

    Destination1 replied to seasoned hopeful's topic in General Students

    Its just the next big buzz word in academia. Nothing exclusive to nursing like many instructors would like for us to believe. Its simply thinking about a problem and its possible solutions before...

  14. HESI during Nursing school?

    Destination1 replied to ghurricane's topic in General Nursing

    No HESI exams here. I do wonder if it is an attempt by the schools to protect their NCLEX pass rates. Fail those that dont pass the HESI and there is no need to worry about that student failing the...

  21. Should I get a job as a CNA while in school?

    Destination1 replied to mmccool719's topic in General Students
