  2. BSN requirement for new grads in acute care

    adnrnstudent replied to dzadzey's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Magnet status is really screwing with each state's ability to get its citizens to return to work. Many people such as myself with BS in other fields have obtained our ADNs. The ADN-BSN paper writing...

  3. ADN's being pushed out

    adnrnstudent replied to MSN Student's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    When the ADN-BSN becomes something more than the ability to write papers, I may consider one. For now, my BS in another field will do as will my MBA. I had BSB embroidered on my scrubs so I can look...

  8. College of DuPage ADN - Any current students?

    adnrnstudent replied to BlondeAmbition's topic in Illinois Nursing

    You will hear experienced nurses say the best trained new grads of any Chicagoland program come from College of DuPage. Arguably the best nursing school in Illinois and why hospitals that aren't...

  9. RN with non BSN B.S in Health Science

    adnrnstudent replied to has31's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    If you do go ADN route, let's say you have a BS in Biology, make sure you put BSB on your name so you look as ridiculous as people who put BSN on

  18. Which BSN school should I choose in Chicagoland area??

    adnrnstudent replied to NursingStoodent's topic in Illinois Nursing

    Go with a state supported school like NIU or UIC. Why pay private for a RN degree unless you simply can't get into state school or you're

  19. Looking for a LPN program 15k or under

    adnrnstudent replied to samirish's topic in Illinois Nursing

    Community colleges all the way. I got my ADN from College of DuPage which is arguably one of the best RN programs in the state. Most of the community colleges are really good, depending on what County...

  20. Thinking about moving to Chicago. Where should I work?!

    adnrnstudent replied to Mateo22's topic in Illinois Nursing

    You better take a hard look at the very high cost of living and taxes in Illinois. Check out the 2010 Census and see how Illinois is stagnant in people growth. People moving out it has become so...

  23. Any ADN-BSN programs without ridiculous papers?

    adnrnstudent replied to adnrnstudent's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I didn't have to do anything like this for my B.S. or MBA. I find no educational value in writing a 6-8 page paper on a word. The number 1 reason ADN students say they resist ADN-BSN is the papers, so...

  24. Any ADN-BSN programs without ridiculous papers?

    adnrnstudent replied to adnrnstudent's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I could finish all of medical school easier than I could write a 6-8 page paper about a single word. It is RIDICULOUS and I don't expect to be handed nothing, but I do expect assignments that make...
