    christina731 replied to Kimynurse's topic in General Students

    My school uses the following grading system: 92.5-100 = A 83.5-92.4 = B 74.5-83.4 = C It's tough for me! But I can't imagine some other schools with much higher

    christina731 replied to mrsmommy32's topic in Nevada Nursing

    I'm sure they will leave a message for you with their number if you can't answer. I actually called them and they gave me the "good news" since I'm so impatient but when they called me back to give me...

    The toolbox class is for any currently accepted nursing student and you take the 1.5 credits regardless of your standing, as long as you're accepted. If you have not been accepted I'm not sure that...

    I have not heard of CSN grads having difficulty getting jobs here in NV. There may be issues with nurses with ADN's in other states not getting jobs but I would not worry much unless you plan on...
