  11. Am I the only one that feels like this? I need help!

    My best advice is to rethink why you want to become a nurse and are you going to be able to pay off the loans. Just like yourself, I did my BS in Business and I started to do my pre-reqs in 2005-2006....finally I got into a ABSN program in 2011 and ...
  12. First of all, I do think that schools are cashing on the idea of nursing shortage and in fact there isnt any at this time. Second, as a society we are responsible for allowing the schools to keep increasing their costs of education. The school I we...
  13. People need to stop promoting nursing and telling people to go become a nurse cause there is NO NURSING SHORTAGE!!! a ton of us graduated with a BSN from a top school last May 2012, and still can not find a job...its really sad and scary cause we hav...

  15. CA RN to FL RN

  18. T-Minus 1 day until NCLEX!!!!

    My best advice to you is this....ask yourself, am I ready to take the test? Do I feel confident? If your answers are YES, then you are ready. No matter what these scores say or no matter what anyone says, you have to feel ready to take the test. Wh...
