I really do understand your frustration because I would feel the same way in your situation, but there is really nothing you can do about it now. Count your blessings and be proud of your personal growth as a person and as a nurse.To answer your question they are fairly new to me too, I have only heard of a few in my area. I hear that they are pretty hard and time consuming as compared to an average paced nursing school. :heartbeat:redbeathe
