See all of this is good to know-but it's a shame that in this economy we cannot get whatever credentials we want and GO FOR IT. It's either all or none and that's just not good. Thanks for sharing!

ps. ask for your work file from Hr and have a friend call up/or you call up for job verification. They will need your address and SS#. See what they say. A slick ques is: Is the candidate rehireable. If they say something you dont like pm me and we c...

I must say that I thought I bombed too, so dont be too surprised if those people passed. The book was a starting place for me to get a feel of what they were looking for-but online is where I was able to sharpen my skillz and get more information. Fo...

I chose the LPN route FIRST. MANY RN Schools will accept you after you get your LPN. And, atleast you can work after 1yr of school TOWARDS your RN online. Does that simplify life for you?

theres a GREAT site that I learned my RN on and did it frontwards and bckwards until i got it. Practice! It works and you will breeze through that test! Scroll to the bottom for conversions and Rom Num
