    Aniva replied to angel549's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I recommend taking the boards. You have the open option, so why not take advantage of it? You've already accomplished so much, so take it one step further. I guess everyone has to ask themselves...

    Aniva replied to TinkerNurse's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

  20. Starting Over

    Aniva replied to CheetahPrintScrubs's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Look at the program to see if it is a solid one. I'm more of an accelerated BSN fan, although it's more intense. Go with whatever you think is best for you and your learning

    Aniva replied to Ruby Vee's topic in General Nursing
