  4. Taking Micro alongside nursing courses..

    readyforachangenow replied to Chanduh's topic in General Students

    readyforachangenow replied to bdb1550's topic in Tennessee Nursing

  10. Tennessee Nurses!

    readyforachangenow replied to Kwyman1210's topic in Tennessee Nursing

    Vandy is one of the lowest paying hospitals in the area. Everyone wants to work there because of the experience you get. They have no incentive to pay more when thousands are applying for jobs

  11. Seriously what are the chances of getting in?

    readyforachangenow replied to angellove6776's topic in General Students

  18. Is it worth going to school for LPN (2014)?

    readyforachangenow replied to mzsuccess's topic in LPN, LVN Students
