  2. How important is your g.p.a

    I_See_You_RN replied to shynurse's topic in First Year After Licensure

    that is simply not true. The fact that all schools have an entire department dedicated to mailing out confidential transcripts should prove that. Grades are so important to employers and higher...

  5. How important is your g.p.a

    I_See_You_RN replied to shynurse's topic in First Year After Licensure

  7. How important is your g.p.a

    I_See_You_RN replied to shynurse's topic in First Year After Licensure

    - I really don't think that the ASn vs. BSN test thing is true. I think maybe the only difference is that I've had 2 extra years to test take and get in the hang of studying then an ASN graduate and...

  8. HELP!!!!!!!!

    I_See_You_RN replied to almostarn's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I_See_You_RN replied to butterflymel6's topic in New York Nursing
