    bioniclewoman replied to bioniclewoman's topic in First Year After Licensure

  5. Fending for yourself in clinical normal?

    bioniclewoman posted a topic in General Students

    bioniclewoman replied to rdstrasser's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    bioniclewoman replied to laurawhisenant00's topic in General Students

    I knew a lady that had to have her CNA to do a one year BSN program. I believe she was going to UT Austin. She was a CPA and decided number crunching wasn't for her. Since she already had a four year...

  19. Annoying student

    bioniclewoman replied to PACUquilter's topic in General Students

    There are two in my program, so I know how you feel. I especially hate it when they answer the other student's Qs before the teacher has a chance. It's like they want everyone in class to think they...

    On my CC nursing app there were two questions about work "do you plan on working during the program and if so how many hours?". Do you think since this Q was asked on the actual application that they...
