  5. I need a little bit of advice!

    I decided to go the LPN route first. It was faster to get into school. I didn't need to take as many pre reqs. I had about 12-18 months of pre reqs ahead of me if I went for an RN. Yet, I only need 2...
  6. Whats the point of a LPN license

    I'll be honest, there are people with 4.0's not getting into nursing school, so you may find yourself in a tough place. Have you completed all of your pre reqs (you said you minored in biology). If...
  14. How does inexperienced RN do ER?

    I think the 0-3 years was sarcasm. A lot of places want you to have more than 3 years experience, so if you have 0-3 years what are you to do? Ha ha. Maybe. I don't

  22. Is It Just Me?

    I actually want to do bedside nursing. But when I admit this people tend to say "but you have so much potential". Even other nurses encourage me to do "more" and stay "relevant" with something...
