    okiedokie123 posted a topic in Online Distance Learning

    Has anyone who has taken a class through EduKan tell me what it says specifically for any course on the transcript? I'm a little worried because on one class I'm taking through them, it says this on...

    okiedokie123 posted a topic in School

  5. Salary and retirement compared to other RN specialties?

    okiedokie123 replied to okiedokie123's topic in School

    That's an excellent way to look at it. However, I think I am mostly frustrated because: 1) Lack of Social Security (Since you are contributing to the teacher's pension plan, the years you work for...

    okiedokie123 replied to okiedokie123's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Oh yeah, definitely YMMV. I'm not a fan of Biochemistry or those proctored exams either. So past the 6 month term, WGU becomes around $7490 in

    okiedokie123 replied to applesxoranges's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    Ugh, I really want to go with UTA but it's posts like yours that really put me off, what with their long processing time. At the same time, there's WGU and while accredited, I still have a problem...

  16. How long to hear back?

    okiedokie123 replied to applesxoranges's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    I have several questions as well. Do you have to send in transcripts from ALL your schools or could it just be a single transcript from your last known school with all the other school grades on it...

    If you don't mind me asking, how much did you guys pay overall for your programs? Any financial aid taken into account? I have financial aid available (just Pell Grant) but obviously want the cheapest...

    okiedokie123 replied to mmcc26's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It's quite simple really. Real estate bubble. Financial bubble. Nursing bubble. Student loans bubble. Education bubble. Tuition bubble. Health insurance bubble. Trends. Do you see you where this is...

  21. Any other notable reviews other than Kaplan?

    okiedokie123 replied to okiedokie123's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Today I really felt I was above that passing line but kept going below it and back up and vice versa. Maybe 2nd times the charm. I've looked into Hurst as well but don't feel it's right for me. I'm...

    okiedokie123 replied to merc4496's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Congratulations! Wish I could say the same myself. I unfortunately didn't and I used Kaplan and Saunders. Obviously, using those it did not help me learn and I need to find another way to change it...
