  3. Will move for work but where???

    mt2544 replied to RB2000's topic in General Nursing

    Both from the boards and from looking at job postings, it seems that Texas is hiring new grads at a higher rate than many other parts of the country. I think though that you will need to stay away...

    mt2544 replied to usRNs's topic in First Year After Licensure

    In another thread I saw that someone got the "We've received your application" email just today, so they're definitely still just looking through the apps. That makes me wonder just how many people...

  6. Lakewood Regional Medical Center New Grad RN Residency Prog Sept/2011

    mt2544 replied to usRNs's topic in First Year After Licensure

    TDO RN - If you double-check the job posting, it says that you could attach the docs to the online application, fax them, OR email them to that address. So you should be fine on that front. :)

    mt2544 replied to candyapples88's topic in California Nursing

    davismom - That's wonderful to hear about those two nurses getting loan forgiveness a couple years ago! There may well be some positions in Cali still offering that to inexperienced new grad RNs, but...

  9. Stanford and Lucile Packard 2011 RN Residency

    mt2544 replied to Mama of 2's topic in California Nursing

    mt2544 replied to candyapples88's topic in California Nursing

  11. NCLEX RN tomorrow

    mt2544 replied to teddy20's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Best of luck to you! And feel free to ignore the negative comments... A prepared person is a prepared person, and it doesn't matter what day of the week they take their test. If the fail rate is...

    mt2544 replied to candyapples88's topic in California Nursing

  14. CSUS Fall '11 Hopefuls....??

    mt2544 replied to candyapples88's topic in California Nursing

  15. Case Study Presentation

    mt2544 replied to studentchar's topic in General Students

    mt2544 replied to ctina*'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree that a private school may be the way to go, although they tend to be significantly more expensive. Also, (and you may already be doing this) it would be helpful to seek out tutoring help or...
