  15. Med Surg & Micro!!!!!

    To me, Med surg was like fundamentals but you had to care/focus more on their problems - DM, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, etc. In terms of my clinicals, medsurg/fundamentals - the same kind of...

  23. Pre Employment Assessments

    I would just call them back. Thankfully, employers, recruiters and head hunters are more "real life oriented" as I like to call it. I would call the recruiter and ask to retake. It's not like all...
