  1. Better clinicals with BSN program???

    Yes, that is correct- I would expect any prospective student to research their states pass rates. In a state like North Carolina- there are many great schools...BSN and ADN. The 4 year school I was...
  2. Pediatric Nursing?

    So the AF hospital is moving onto Ft Sam? Is it all in the same hospital or will they build a separate

    There you go. Those are statistics no one can
  4. Dating Your Doctor

    If you do follow USCSTU4LFE's advice be sure to get a paying hobby and save that money up in case you don't get to make it to early 'retirement' due to a
  5. Better clinicals with BSN program???

    The thing that made me second guess my decision to go to a 4 year program was NCLEX results. When I compared the state's pass rates- out of all the top schools, the 2 year programs scored higher and...
  6. Smelly co-worker

    That is terrible. I give it to her though, I would rather stay at home than to have to work and deal with people's comments about my scent. I wonder if she could have gotten disability for
  7. The VA Medical Center Pay

    Since San Fran VA has the highest salary, and Houston is second...which hospital is the third? NYC perhaps? How is their VA
  8. How did you fund your education?

    I plan to use my Army college fund money, and to apply for as much scholarships as I have the time and energy to. I know many people are downgrading their lifestyle- unfortunately or fortunately mine...
  9. Smelly co-worker

  12. I wanted to add I *may* join the ANC, but I will only make that decision later on down the road. Since I was on the enlisted side, I always assumed things were different as an officer. I knew a few...
  13. Thanks Kathie! I definitely plan to get as much out of the way as possible. Please be sure to come back and write how you feel about the program and faculty further down the road. Good
  14. Best states for nursing - salary vs. housing costs

    ^^Tucson perhaps? I'm guessing it would be cheaper there than in Scottsdale. Why o why do all the cities I WANT to live in cities with high housing costs? (Miami, San Diego, San Francisco, NYC) I just...
  15. You work 3 days a week? MUST BE NICE!

    How do other nurses manage to work extra shifts I wonder? I would also prefer 3 12s over 5 8s- but as I am reading everyone else's experiences- most days off are spent recovering...and that makes...

  21. In state resident proof...

    What type of proof do they ask for? I have been a GA resident for over a year, but I had to move away last year for a few months due to an impending divorce. I will be moving back- but I never had a...
  22. Info needed on schools

    I'm still on the fence about whether to start in GA or NC (I'm in NC at the moment) but if I move back to GA I'm going to take prereqs at GPC. If by then more people are satisfied with the program,...
  23. Which school did you attend? After all the A&P horror stories- I may choose a school depending on how good the professor is in that
