!!!!OMG!!!!! :uhoh21: This is THE most frustrating thing in the world. I graduated from UCLA on 2004, and just applied to SFSU/Canada College BSN program. I have worked in healthcare for 7 years, have a 3.8 in my pre-req's and overall 3.5. I am f...
Okay...a few more questions, So....I am applying to grad school this coming Fall (2004). I am taking a year off to complete the pre-req's and such and so I would be entering grad school in June 2005 or Fall 2005, depending on where I go. The thi...
This sucks. I am a nursing student in my last year (I graduate in May 2009) and I have NO idea where to start as a new grad... I have always known that I want to end up in Trauma/ICU (and eventually, a Flight Nurse) but even though I work part-time...
Just seeing if anyone has any suggestions and see which books they thought were best in helping prepare. NCLEX is awhile away for me (little more than a year) but I figure it's never too early to start, right?
So, I am in my 2nd semester graduating in May 09. We just had our 1st MedSurg Midterm (lecture, not clinical). I SWEAR I must have failed (the census from our class is most of us failed). It was one of the toughest exams I have ever taken. Here ...
Hi All, I wanted to post a "thank you" to each of you, but I'm studying for Patho right now (exam tomorrow) and it would take forever. But, I wanted to thank all of you because you have certainly put my mind at ease. I love these boards!!!!!:bowi...

Hi All, I will be graduating form my BSN program in May 2009. I am really really interested in ICU or Trauma/ER. I would love to work in a Trauma center (we have 4 Level 1's in the Bay Area, but I refuse to work at one of them). Anyhow, some of t...

OK, so now that I have been accepted into a BSN program, I need something else to get anxious over and obsess about. So, I come here and read the boards and see what I am in for. I am *terrified* after reading some of these threads and seeing how ...

Grand larceny = theft of property worth $200+ Damn. Wonder if my state has something like that site. Creepy. But, then again, useful, I suppose for those interested. (maybe if you don't trust your nurse, etc.????)

http://www.allnursingschools.com/featured/ http://www.nursingschools.com/ try these. don't know about ratios/acceptance rates etc. you would probably have to go to the individual schools' site. this, i think is a good start, though.
