    netglow replied to bree*'s topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Challenging paramedic exam

    netglow replied to sportsmed's topic in General Nursing

    The NCLEX is a silly exam. IMHO anybody who wants it can have it. It's the type of exam that you could have a panel of monkeys take (blindfolded) (with the Kaplan prep course/or studying on their own)...

    Should I quit nursing school...?

    netglow replied to jfisher23's topic in General Nursing

    Yes it is a dead end unless you can get your sea-legs and get started with the right training out of the box as a new nurse. You must begin your career on such a narrow track of possibility. If this...
