    Jmira.BSN.RN replied to jellybean0's topic in LPN to RN

    Yup. 2 years pre-reqs, 2-4 year wait list, 2 year of actual program. Its utterly rediculous. But its the only affordable way for a lot of people. I agree 100% look into bsn if you can, the JCs have...

  14. I need help deciding whether to be an RN or ultrasound tech?!

    Jmira.BSN.RN replied to Ashley Davis's topic in General Students

    Jmira.BSN.RN replied to thesundowner's topic in General Nursing

    Please stop generalizing. Most students do NOT want to be CRNAs and NPs. Most of us would be grateful to have any nursing job that comes our way after graduation. Yeah there's a few who run their...

    Jmira.BSN.RN replied to NVega's topic in General Students
