What a great summation. I didn't even consider that LVNs aren't recognized over there. 800K nurses out of work? my goodness. Some california economists are projecting the the hire rate will go up in the first quarter of next year. Hopefully it does.

It's sort of an interesting situation here in CA because of the large number of Filipino nurses who came to CA looking for high-paying nursing salaries have been really hurt by the economy.

I don't really think so. I gathered that she risking speaking out because she didn't want him being portrayed as a junkie looking to score but a man who needed rest for a 50-concert tour. Also considering all the plastic surgery MJ's had he could have developed a desire to 'fade into the black' of anesthesia. From the article: "He wasn't looking to get high or feel good and sedated from drugs," she said. "This was a person who was not on drugs. This was a person who was seeking help, desperately, to get some sleep, to get some rest."

Funny..I didn't get that from her comment.

Straight to RN

Make studying at the library your routine and leave the whiny man-bot at home to slam his own doors.. :icon_roll

Hey guys, how do they rank you according to the waitlist? Is it the higher gpa you have?

No, not really IMO.

LiLOncRN, you are just to cool for school.

If you need more help with math google "the math tutor dvd" by Jason Gibson. It's worth every penny. I went from not knowing how to do long division and fractions to a B in Algebra 2 and an A in Stats.

You guys are seriously motivating me to start a walking club during breaks at school.

1a. Breathe. 1b. Go to your state's website for the Board of Registered Nursing. 2. Look at the list of approved schools 3. Google those schools that interest you. Visit school's dept. of nursing website to answer your questions regarding waitlist, pre-reqs, GPA etc. 3a. If the school's dept of nursing is vague about the application process and recommends you attend an information meeting, attend said meeting to have all your questions answered. 3b. If you can't go to the informational sessions or there aren't any scheduled for a while, call the nursing dept contact person to have some questions answered. 4. Expect to wait if you plan to go to state schools. 5. Do not plan on being able to repeat any core pre-reqs for a higher grade. if you can't make your grades, don't take too many classes at once in an attempt to save time. Hope this calmed you down :)

There's a difference between being judgemental and bringing correction and wise judgement into a situation. For most of my 2 year lurkdom it just seems like people are simply overly opinionated and could stand to not be less so.

Where I work now, we have two people who are apparently in love after cheating on both their spouses; subsequently moving in together shortly thereafter. That's not the worst. The guy's daughter works here and has to witness all the lunchtime jaunts to the local Motel 6. When he dumps her, (which he will because he has even propositioned me, almost prompting a sexual harassment issue) there will be even more drama than before to be reluctantly witnessed by all of us here.
