   Hi Everyone, I know this is sort of an old post, but I wanted to get some opinions from people who have completed the program. Are you happy you chose the (more expensive) accelerated route? I am...

   cclem1 replied to Scooter321's topic in Massachusetts Nursing

   Hi, I got my packet last week. I was hoping there was more class schedule info in there, but looks like we'll have to wait for orientation. It sounds like we'll be in orientation together. I'm...
