If you have not heard from Baylor, you might want to call them to verify. Just double check to make sure you did not miss that important email or phone call.
I am planning to apply to these two schools this year. BTW, is math (Statistics) considered as a science class? I encountered this problem when viewing Baylor's online application.
I went to nursing school in Hampton Roads and moved to Texas immediately after graduation. I started as a new grad in a hospital in a small city in Texas and my pay was $22 and some change. My classmates who graduated with me mostly started at $20 in...
Hi all, I've been an RN on Tele/ICU step-down floor for nearly a year and half now. Currently I work in Southeast Texas and am looking to move to Houston in March. I really hope to get an ICU position in the Texas Medical Center. While I was job hunt...
Hi HouTX, Thanks for your good advice. I am working on my resume now and I will do as you suggested- make it detailed and show the potential employers what I have been doing on my job. For example, instead of simply saying "patients requiring continu...
Hi, I am an RN new grad (graduated in August, 2009). I had always wanted to move to California after graduation and work in critical care. However, with the odd time of my graduation (neither May or December) along with the economy, I was unable to m...

Thanks for your reply! Before I graduated from nursing school, I did a lot of research. I probably won't attempt to find a job in the Bay area even after a year's experience~~~ I am thinking about Los Angeles, San Diego, Bakersfield, or other regions...
Hi caring touch, I took my NCLEX today as well. I also very nervous and VA board of Nursing does not participate in the quickresults service. So you tried the PearsonVue trick the same day you took the exam?

I am relocating to Texas from Virginia. I will be working at Christus St. Elizabeth hospital. I really look forward to that! The job market in VA is not really good right now, although that is not the reason I wanted to relocate. As I started job hu...
I applied about a month ago and still have not heard back anything. I don't think I will get that position because their initial confirmation emailed indicated that if you don't receive a response from them within 2-3 weeks, they probably have contac...
Maybe after reviewing the content and exercise more, you will find it getting easier! I guess what other replies meant that Saunders is good in its content review whereas Kaplan may be better at test taking strategies and question format.

I am not sure if ODU grad has any advantage in job seeking- Sentara will probably hire their own grad over an ODU grad :) or hire the students that have taken the Sentara scholarship while attending nursing school.
I am not from the Roanoke area but I also live in Virginia. In southeast VA, the starting pay is 20-21 an hour for new grad. So what you've heard about their pay previously might not be too far off. Virginia seems to be one of the states that have re...
I would choose secondary prevention: because diabetes in the family is a risk factor that has been identified; so the recommendation for healthy diet and exercises are implemented specifically for his/her high risk condition.
Hi everyone, I will start my senior year in just a few days; with two semesters (spring and summer) ahead of me, I will graduate this August! I live in Virginia; my husband and I am thinking about moving to California and I have reviewed some releva...
Hello there, I live in Virginia and hospitals here usually offer you certain amount of money if you have work commitment with them after graduation. Similar offers may exist in your area as well. Contact local hospitals and see what they say! I hope ...
