    OrganizedChaos posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    My best friend graduated at the top of her class (with a 4.0) in a BSN program. She also passed her NCLEX-RN on the first attempt. She was offered a residency position on an orthopedic unit right out...

    ADN to BSN credit by exam instead of papers?

    I'm not the most outgoing person but asking someone interview questions online I just couldn't do. People can just be so

    I know. Maybe I'll try to talk to her again about it. I understand all of this but I don't know if she does. I can tell she's getting frustrated & on the brink of just getting any job...

    Awesome, good luck! I miss working corrections. Probably my favorite job.

    Hahaha! There have been times I just wanted her to give her license to me. As an LVN I know exactly what it's like to not get the dream job, I would've loved that ortho position. Hell, I'd be ecstatic...

    There has to be a reason why the prof would suggest dropping. Probably a reason the OP will never tell us. As with most stories, the OP probably tried to make him/herself show in a better

    OrganizedChaos replied to Peerless's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I know how you feel. I'm currently an LVN & will bridge to get my RN. I'm not looking forward to more school & I despise writing papers. So having to get my bachelor's isn't so exciting for me...

    OrganizedChaos replied to NicolleM's topic in General Students

    I believe the liars in her case might get found out & kicked out as well. I wouldn't lie in that case, or ever in school. I'm sure the school will look into this issue & everything will come...

    OrganizedChaos replied to Peerless's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I know about Oklahoma Wesalyn (sp?) University, it doesn't require stats. But it does everything else. I highly doubt you'll find a BSN program that doesn't require all of those

    Once again, you're stating black & white here but you claim "life is gray". You should know that nursing is all critical thinking & even with that scenario one needs to think & not act on...
