I am making a career change from business to nursing myself! Don't mean to hijack this post, but thanks for the encouraging comment. I sometimes wonder if I am crazy for leaving a business job to go nback to school full-time...

Thanks you for your honesty about the pros and cons! Clinicals were the other thing I was wondering about, as I know how important they are for the hands on experience! Would you mind keeping me posted about how your NCLEX goes and how quickly you find employment - since you are so close now?

Hey, I am working on my pre-requs to apply for nursing schools. I was all set to apply to National University, when two of my advisors who are on University Boards of Nursing Panels and Faculty (one in CA the other in FL), told me to definitely NOT apply to National because of their NCLEX pass rate. Anyone out there who has taken the NCLEX at National? Anyone know of hospitals not favoring National Nursing Grads? I am deffering to my advisors right now and taking the impacted state college route, but I wanted to put some feelers out and see what others in CA have experienced. Thanks!
