    the healer's art replied to warriortac's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    When I went there you ranked your top 3. I think most people got their 1st choice and some got their second choice (but ended up being really happy with it). My cohort chose mostly ICUs and ED's....

    the healer's art replied to cje1015's topic in General Nursing

    the healer's art replied to neatblue's topic in Post Graduate Students

    Yes I am really happy with my decision to do the ABSN. I'm almost done! I haven't gotten the impression that a generalist master's gives you an advantage. I'll be entering the work field sooner than...

  10. Duke or Johns Hopkins ASBN??

    the healer's art replied to sarly's topic in General Students

    It depends on what you're looking for. Maybe check out both threads and ask people who attended the pros and cons and what they liked/disliked about it? A year ago I was debating between Duke and...

    the healer's art replied to Scout_90's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I am in the program now and I definitely think it's worth the cost. I got into other top programs, but the one on one support you get at Duke is amazing. There is so much faculty support and we're...

  14. Duke ABSN Program Questions! :)

    the healer's art replied to kellyc11's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I am in Duke's ABSN program and I LOVE it. I am really glad I chose to go to Duke. There really isn't a big difference between the three different options. Choose the one that sounds most interesting...

  15. Duke ABSN Fall 2014 Hopefuls

    the healer's art replied to Scout_90's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    They purposely tell us not to reveal what's asked during the group interview. But it's just fun and low key. I think they are trying to get personalities and see if people are a good fit. For the...

    If you guys can make it to Duke Days in person, I'd definitely recommend it! It's what made me choose Duke over the other schools I got into (Hopkins, Columbia). Plus a lot of people I met at Duke...

  20. Macbook Air vs Macbook Pro

    the healer's art replied to mmcc01's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The NEW macbook pro (that came out in October) is awesome. It's more powerful than the air but only .5lbs heavier. I love macs. They last forever. My last mac lasted 6 years. I would get a superdrive...

  21. Your Starting Salary?

    I like this thread better though because most of the people posting in the other one have been nurses for a while. It's nice to know starting

  22. Does going to a "top-rated" nursing school really make a difference?

    the healer's art replied to pantherfan14's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
