    Central BSN, RN replied to Red398's topic in General Nursing

  5. Failed nclex 10 times should i try again???????

    Central BSN, RN replied to ekb2011's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    This may sound a bit harsh but if you can't meet the bare minimum after 10 attempts maybe it's not meant to be... This isn't to speak ill of you but if you can't handle the pressures of an exam 10...

    Central BSN, RN replied to Texasdude's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Central BSN, RN replied to Kaix781's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  12. Can I still be a nurse?? Do still have a chance?

    Central BSN, RN replied to nursingismydreamm's topic in General Students

    So many variables but most schools will look and see you retake a course and only did marginally better and not view it favorably (they don't care about why). As for wether you should retake them,...

  13. How fast did you land a job?

    Central BSN, RN replied to johndough's topic in General Students

  15. BSN

    Central BSN, RN replied to RNMAN718's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    You asked for some research and I provided ten separate studies. Ignoring the research doesn't make it any less valid. As for "only having" an ASN you said it not I. You may be right though, that...

  16. going straight into becoming an NP after BSN?

    Central BSN, RN replied to schallerjasmine's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    Get some experience first. Learn, interact, observe, get in the muck. It will make you a much better provider in the long run. IMO experience should be required for entry into any NP

    Central BSN, RN replied to ashleytt's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I just did the questions and read each rational, even when I got the question correct. My school was good about teaching us content. I did brush up on memorizing some labs but beyond that nothing...

    Central BSN, RN replied to RNMAN718's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    Of course one factor is money, when is it not? That said research has shown a link between BSN prepared nurses and better patient outcomes. It's also a necessary stepping stone if you wish to move...

  22. UWORLD... IS OUT OF THIS WORLD. 5th attempt, 75qs!

    Central BSN, RN replied to ashleytt's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

  23. Chamberlain Nursing School... Is it worth it?

    Central BSN, RN replied to MarquieshaH's topic in Chamberlain College

    IMO that's nuts I went to a private university (JU) which is not cheap but because it's a non-profit I was eligible for grants & scholarships so I almost had a full ride. Otherwise I think...

    Central BSN, RN replied to PootyMcPoot's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Central BSN, RN replied to Ketsia_xo's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I am personal friends with CRNA's who sit on the application board for UofM and UNF. According to them they do look at the school you went to and what hospital you worked at. I can only speak for...
