  1. Nursing school is awful in so many ways....

    LOL. I have tested SEVERAL times in the 96th-99th percentile range NATIONALLY on SEVERAL different exams, throughout my life. Let me not pat myself on the back either, but I am unimpressed. I had no...
  2. Co-worker eats like a cave woman...

    LOL! I would find it HILARIOUS. It wouldn't bother me. It's fickle. I just hope she cleans under her nails and washes those hands for more than the CDC-recommended 30
  3. Nursing school is awful in so many ways....

    1) You don't have to enter an exclamation mark after everything. Calm down, "assess", and take some of the "freaking out" out of the equation lol. 2) YES- we ARE telling it like it is. Who in the...

    It smells to me like people can't take the opinion of others! :lol: I'm not going to an "I hate nursing" board. If you don't like my thread, don't read it! It would make your life a LOT easier....
  5. Nursing school is awful in so many ways....

    Sure there would be nurses. People are applying in the THOUSANDS to certain programs alone...and only 50 get in. I'm positive that summersent's comments wouldn't shy them all away. Some people don't...

  11. Kaplan University ASN program

    Hi goodnursingstudent! Can you tell us how it is going for you? I don't see anything about their ADN program anymore. I'm out of state, but I am looking for something I can complete mostly online and...
  12. Looking for LPN to ADN/BSN programs on the east coast!

    I'm curious to know if there are any accelerated LPN-RN programs in the tri-state area. I will have a 3.0 GPA upon entering, so I'm not looking for anything overly competitive or with crazy waiting...
  13. Can someone direct me to their LPN-RN program web page? I am only able to locate the Bachelors. Also, from experience, when to clinical rotations take place and how long do they last? I'm asking...

  17. NYC average RN Salary

    Yes, and it's pretty disheartening to think that most employers, in NYC, are starting off Registered Nurses @ around 55-68k a year. I have seen "others" come to this column with their mouths...
  18. NYC average RN Salary

    Absolutely. I agree. It practically feels like BEANS to me. $70k in NYC is like $30k elsewhere..in my opinion. I know that that's not completely accurate..but living here, I can tell that's what it...
  19. Nursing school is awful in so many ways....

    I suppose everyones experience is different. Some have it better than others, vice versa. I do think summersent made some intelligent remarks. It all clicks. My self-esteem is fine, as well...and I'm...

  22. Anyone attending Adelphi University???

    Has anyone graduated from here? If so, would you mind telling us about the requirements, admissions process, and overall experience?
  23. So frustrated and depressed

    It looks like you're the one that needs to calm down. If you cannot handle someone venting, why bother replying? The cattiness on this website AMAZES me @ times. Offer the poster some advice or...
