I was in 7Eleven this morning getting my coffee and there was a student from Homestead getting coffee as well. I asked her was she going to nursing school at Homestead and she said yes. I asked her how was it and she said it was great and she liked i...
Depends on what school your talking about going to. I won't be on a long waiting list to get into Compton. I heard their waiting list was not really long so I will be getting my prereqs done.

Thats true. I spoke with my God Mother who is an RN and an Instructor for RN. If you do the 30 Unit Option you basically say that you are not going anywhere else with your license in the US. You are stuck in California.

I say they are jealous because you are young and have your LPN license. They feel intimidated but they need to get over it. If you have the authority to write them up then please do so. Also talk to your DON and see what kind of direction she has. If...
