Just wondering if anyone knows what the starting rate is for a new grad in the Dallas/Fort Worth area..... any other comments are appreciated. I'm seriously thinking of relocating from Virginia Beach. I love this area but it's getting too expensive.

thanks.... i know i'm beating myself up about it. but you know.... when you don't do well on a test.... you study harder and you bring your grade up. i could never bring my grade up. it was bewildering! i felt so helpless. like... i couldn't help myself! and now.... i feel like one big sap and that i might loose it if someone looked at me wrong. my husband is very supportive. but i don't think that anyone can really understand unless they've gone through a program such as nursing. do you agree?

I wish I knew. My problem was that I over analyzed and I always thought they were trying to trick me. I did well in my other courses and my clinicals.... any suggestions or books I might be able to read. I have a critical thinking book.... and have read it front to back. Obviously, it didn't help me any.

I WAS in a nursing program until I failed out recently. Tomorrow everyone goes back to class and I'm feeling... crappy! I never thought it could happen to me. Now, I'm really scared to go back because I know that this past semester... I studied my "behind" off but I just could not answer the questions like the professors wanted. I guess I need to be a more critical thinker but.... now my self esteem is shot. Ok, so I'm not looking for a pity party....just some advice on how I might overcome all this.
