    ASN or BSN ????

    Do the BSN. Where I am, new ADN grads are having a hard time finding work. New BSN grads are preferred. So yes, the BSN can be more expensive but you have a better choice of getting employment

    Teas V or Hesi

    I took the TEAs & HESI. I studied for the TEAs for 2 weeks & got an 82, which I am satisfied with since my programs require a 70 or higher. I took the HESI 4 months later & did not study....
