    tokmom, about those 5-week classes--normal semester classes are 16 weeks, and I've done the intensive online 8-weekers...which were hell. Are they really cramming 16 weeks into 5, or are these not...

    RNsRWe replied to RNsRWe's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks again for all the input. I think I'd qualify the atmosphere of the facility as "intense". As in super serious, everyone strikes me as under pressure. Guess that should say it all, but I tend...
