    KickRox posted a topic in School, College Programs

  6. What do you do for money during nursing school?

    KickRox replied to Infofreak411's topic in General Students

    KickRox replied to KickRox's topic in School, College Programs

    The admission rep for the RN program at Kaplan San Diego has a serious attitude problem. My old rep used to be *** and he was AWESOME! Now that he's gone...I cant believe this bottom of the barrel rep...

    KickRox replied to KickRox's topic in School, College Programs

  13. LPN/LVN to RN California almost impossible!!

    KickRox replied to KickRox's topic in LPN to RN

    KickRox replied to jamie2110's topic in LPN to RN

  18. LPN/LVN to RN California almost impossible!!

    KickRox replied to KickRox's topic in LPN to RN

    That's exactly my next move...If I knew it would be this difficult, I would've went straight RN. One would think it would be easier to step up after some LVN experience to the RN. If you don't...
