    besaangel replied to ahoadley's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think the ABSN or ADN might be a viable option for you if you do not feel that your credits will transfer. Engineering is difficult (as you know) but Nursing is a different kind of challenging; in...

    besaangel replied to number41's topic in Job Search, Interview, Resume

    Id take the job available to help with the bills, as it might lead to the one you really want as an RN. I have a friend thats a new grad RN and she has kept her clerical job and work PT as an...

  7. Seizure or fainting?? Assessment question

    besaangel replied to RNlove17's topic in School

    I havent started Clinical's but I have a few friends who get the "silent" seizures. The biggest clue IMHO is that they have a blank stare while it happens, are unusually unresponsive during this time...

  8. Why do Nurses tell students to go BSN??

    besaangel replied to besaangel's topic in General Students

    It is. I have never been so indecisive in my entire life but I am trying to remain positive and shun all doubt because it's all for the best. This stems from a sacrifice for my mother and I'm pleased...

  13. Why do Nurses tell students to go BSN??

    besaangel replied to besaangel's topic in General Students

    To clarify they admit freshmen to the 4 yr or change of majors already at the school but that's based on space which is limited so outside transfers never usually get in. They do have an accelerated...

  14. Why do Nurses tell students to go BSN??

    besaangel replied to besaangel's topic in General Students

    Yes I can wait. I'd have no pre-reqs as I have already completed the extra pre-reqs to get in my BSN program so it's straight NURS classes and if I need extras there's always summer 2016. But this...

    besaangel replied to besaangel's topic in General Students

    besaangel replied to besaangel's topic in General Students

    No, I get what is being said and have updated my pros vs con list and life plan accordingly. I did not negate anyone's reasoning; what I did was simply clarify why I was questioning my BSN program....

    besaangel replied to besaangel's topic in General Students

    PMFB-RN, you do not need to justify an error :). We are not children; we are adults. Your advice is sound and non-judgmental and that makes it easier to digest and evaluate. The fact is "if" my hubby...
