  1. ADN to BSN to CRNA or 4 year university?

    SoniaReb replied to michelleburlinski's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    First off, I applaud you for knowing what you want to do so early in your college journey. You should be aware that going for your ADN will not necessarily shorten the time to become an RN. For you...

  2. Alleghany Valley Anesthesia any idea?

    SoniaReb replied to ICUsupanrse's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    I wouldn't let the attrition rate be an impediment to you applying and if accepted, attending that institution. The percentages seems high, but we are talking about small class size. Students drop...

  3. A Mother Seeking Healthcare Career Advice for High School Junior

    SoniaReb replied to Psata's topic in Nursing Career

    AGREE!! I see a number of my friends whose children have completed their Bachelors degree and now back home unemployed with degrees that pretty much useless as far as the job market is concern....

    SoniaReb replied to EmilyEmily's topic in General Students

    Well, this study of yours is obviously not cutting it. You said in the initial post that you have no ideo how the other students are getting by....don't you interact with your fellow peers? Have you...

  5. Continuing my education after my ADN

    SoniaReb replied to bgilstrap's topic in General Students

    Most RN to MSN program do require a intermediate BSN along the way. Some programs grant both a BSN and MSN at the end of the program. It depends on what area you plan to study for your MSN. For...

  6. Broward College August 2013

    SoniaReb replied to Fearless_leader's topic in Florida Nursing

    WOW, I find these numbers shocking. 13 out of the original 43 means that 70% have failed to make the grade. This does not reflect well on BC. I wonder what programs they have instituted to...

  7. 5th time nclex taker

    SoniaReb replied to mnelmac's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    I happen to agree with fancypants09. She is entitled to her opinion and is saying what many others would like to say but has kept quite. The realities are, with the proliferation of For-Profit...

  8. Broward College August 2013

    SoniaReb replied to Fearless_leader's topic in Florida Nursing

    I'm curious here. Are you saying that 23 students have so far dropped out of the RN program? If so, is this typical for Broward College? Is it that these 23 students fail various exams and that is...

  9. NJ Transfer student applying to FIU, UCF, NOVA, and UF nursing program

    SoniaReb replied to Melissamx's topic in Florida Nursing

    The pre-requisites that you mentioned are inadequate to enter directly in BSN Program at pretty much all the schools you listed. You need to look closely at the requirements for the targeted schools...

  10. Driving an hour to school there and back

    SoniaReb replied to SarahStoddard14's topic in General Students

    I agree with the suggestion to drive the 1-hour distance for the RN program, although it can take its toll on you over time, especially if you live in parts of the country with snow storms/bad weather...

  11. NP and new requirements

    SoniaReb replied to NurseNanci1's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    The way I see it, those NPs without a DNP will one day be at a disadvantage to those NPs with their DNPs. We can argue about the merits of getting a DNP, but there are a large number of NPs that have...

  12. 16 year old Running Start Student. Interested in BSN.. But will my AA be help?

    SoniaReb replied to caseylynn97's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I totaly disagree with Dranger. The Dual Enrollment (DE) Program (Running Start in some States) is an excellent opportunity for above average High School Students to enroll in College level courses...

  13. West coast university graduates, help!

    SoniaReb replied to elinagrigoryan's topic in School, College Programs

    @elinagrigoryan You did not mention whether WCU is your only available option. The Tuition is ridiculously expensive. Have you looked at any the Community Colleges or State Schools in your immediate...

  14. Good Affordable Nursing Schools In Georgia ?

    SoniaReb replied to jabah524's topic in School, College Programs

    You mentioned the word "Affordable", so I suspect you want to keep your College cost as low as possible. I would suggest you stay in New Jersey and attend a State College/University or even a...

  15. CRNA vs. RN

    SoniaReb replied to CallMeDoctor2b's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My sister has been a CRNA for the past 21-years and spent only one year as a NIC Nurse before being accepted into a CRNA Program. She worked on Saturdays and Sundays throughout the entire 2-1/2 year...

  16. Broward College Nursing or NSU ? Winter 2014'

    SoniaReb replied to AwesomeNurseToBe's topic in School, College Programs

    IMHO, the way to look at this is to compare the cost of the various options and the time span involve. Option A: BC ADN cost + BC RN-BSN Cost = Option A Total Cost Option A: Total Program Time...

  17. Writing multiple times?

    SoniaReb replied to loriangel14's topic in General Nursing

    What no one wants to say is that the Nursing profession is under siege by the proliferation of these For-Profit Nursing Schools that have taken root all over the United States. Not to mention...

  18. Dade Medical College Nursing Program any graduates?

    SoniaReb replied to ananursing12's topic in Florida Nursing

    @annanursing12 In case anyone is reading this thread: I wouldn't be surprise if Annanursing12 is an employee of Dade Medical College. Some of these for profit institutions do send surrogates to...
