1. Is this just another rumor???

   sabine_rn replied to sabine_rn's topic in General Students

   Thanks for all the info. You know what gets me though---they want us all to get a BSN, but as far as I have been told by RN's, the pay is the same for ADN-BSN. Doesn't seem fair to me! 2 more yrs. of school X 40k of pay lost or cut due to going to sc...

   sabine_rn replied to hollyultrasound's topic in General Students

   Hy everyone, A classmate of mine told me friday that she was told by "someone who is on the nursing teacher staff"... that soon only BSN's will be allowed--no more ADN Rn's. This can't be true, can it??? We already have a nurse shortage, so if it wou...

4. ER last night made me mad!

8. still wanting to be a nurse after failing twice in an RN program

   sabine_rn replied to Purple Princess's topic in Career Support

   I know many people that are in the same situation. I applied to both RN and LPN and got into the LPN program. I see this as a blessing, since MANY students flunk the RN program--they seem to weed out badly... I rather take baby-steps gracefully than ...
