    studentinnursing replied to studentinnursing's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    studentinnursing replied to studentinnursing's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    My income for this year, with 2 children, is less than $100. Obviously I had to have school loans to take care of 2 children by myself. I haven't felt like this the whole time; this just started...

  9. Can I sit for Boards? 7 days from graduation, dropped

    studentinnursing replied to studentinnursing's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    How about diploma programs? There is no nursing degree to be had and students sit for NCLEX-RN? I could have sat for NCLEX-PN last semester, so I'd rather make up my one "I" in management than sit...

  11. CNA to LPN to BSN to MSN , Whew!

    studentinnursing replied to MedNurse2k's topic in LPN to RN

    If you do LPN first, you will still have to do 3 of 4 semesters of the RN program in any school I have checked out; I am in Florida. So being an LPN only lets you "skip" first semester of an...

  17. Care Plans - What's their purpose? - What do you think of them?

    studentinnursing replied to jjjoy's topic in General Students

    I think there do have to be higher standards. I'm kidding, just proof for a living and came across it and I thought it was ironic. I make mistakes all the time, but if these students actually have...
