    guest464345 replied to JayneBB's topic in School, College Programs

    Hey sarly... I can tell you that, to my knowledge, three people from my ABSN cohort (just graduated Dec 2013) applied for the early decision FNP track (two of us as MSN, one as BSN-DNP) and all three...

  2. Phoenix job market - new FNPs vs new RNs

    guest464345 posted a topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm a new BSN/RN who was hoping to move to Phoenix this year, because most of my family lives there. The job market has seemed quite discouraging, so I was worried - and as it turned out, I didn't...

    guest464345 replied to SayNoTo DNC's topic in Arizona Nursing

    I'm glad to see other people telling the truth about this....I was really surprised at how low the academic expectations were in nursing school (and I went to a fancy-schmancy big-name school with an...

    guest464345 replied to dream'n's topic in Arizona Nursing

  8. Duke University ABSN Fall 2013

    guest464345 replied to hopefulnurse24's topic in North Carolina Nursing

  11. Duke University ABSN Fall 2013

    guest464345 replied to hopefulnurse24's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    It's really not bad; last year our interviews were only 15 minutes or so. I recall that it was very straightforward, with questions similar to what you'd expect on any admissions essay or job...

  13. Accelerated BSN vs Direct-Entry MSN option

    guest464345 replied to ky88's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Just to give you another point of view...I applied to both direct-entry and accelerated BSN programs. I was accepted at some really great programs, and it was a struggle to figure out what to do. I...

    guest464345 replied to hopefulnurse24's topic in North Carolina Nursing

  18. MSW -> RN? advice wanted

    guest464345 replied to RTay64's topic in General Students

    So I'm no expert, and I'm still only a nursing student. But this is my understanding: 1. If you work in a higher-paying social work job (say, a hospital social worker, a VA social worker, or maybe...

    guest464345 replied to RTay64's topic in General Students

    Hi there - I am (was) an MSW social worker with an LCSW who worked quite a bit in psych - I also became frustrated with the ridiculously low pay and decided to make the switch to nursing (for the...

    guest464345 replied to ABSNhopeful's topic in North Carolina Nursing
