  7. Air Force NTP Boards July 2013

    tashacorinne replied to Blackhawks's topic in Government, Military

    I didn't include OB, sorry. I don't really think about it. Last year they probably did end up accepting 40 med/surg, but when I was applying I was told they were taking 35. So maybe this year they...

    tashacorinne replied to ursuscalifornia's topic in California Nursing

    Soooo, what did everyone think of the open house event? I went to the 8:30am one. It seemed like there was about 50 people in the morning event. So if it's the same for each, that means about 150...

  18. Air Force July NTP Alternates

    tashacorinne replied to HBaum's topic in Government, Military

    HBaum, I think it might be best if you contact your recruiter... You're in a different situation than those of us with 0 experience. From what it sounds like is that you might have to wait a bit...

  19. Air Force July NTP Alternates

    tashacorinne replied to HBaum's topic in Government, Military

    On another thread (Air Force Nursing 2013), another alternate posted this e-mail he got from his recruiter: Seems pretty rock solid... but I am always skeptical when things seem too good. Let's just...

  22. Moving to CA/new grad

    tashacorinne replied to asats's topic in California Nursing

    tashacorinne replied to spikeRN's topic in California Nursing
