    2bRn-STAT replied to RNPATL's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    2bRn-STAT posted a topic in General Nursing

    I had to take the HESI exam today. We need a 900 to pass on the 1st try, if you dont then you have to take it a 2nd time in May and get an 850, if you dont pass then you get an incomplete for a grade...

  4. ECPI/MCI LPN Program - anyone?

    2bRn-STAT replied to kaseysmom's topic in Virginia Nursing

    Get your ADN and tough it out with the commute. I am not familiar with ECPI's RN programs. I went to Raleigh's LPN program. It gave me everything I needed to pass the boards and be competent at...

    2bRn-STAT replied to Princess74's topic in North Carolina Nursing

  7. ECPI versus Wake Tech, DTCC, Wilson, or Barton

    2bRn-STAT replied to Princess74's topic in North Carolina Nursing

  8. ECPI versus Wake Tech, DTCC, Wilson, or Barton

    2bRn-STAT replied to Princess74's topic in North Carolina Nursing

  9. ECPI versus Wake Tech, DTCC, Wilson, or Barton

    2bRn-STAT replied to Princess74's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    2bRn-STAT replied to PeepnBiscuitsRN's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    2bRn-STAT replied to PeepnBiscuitsRN's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    2bRn-STAT replied to PeepnBiscuitsRN's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

  19. Spouse of an Er nurse needs help

    2bRn-STAT replied to jvalloric's topic in Emergency

    Wow, that is too bad to hear. Sometimes we just conform to our environment. Im sure the women that your wife clicked with are smokers and that makes it so easy to get back into a bad habit. I hate...

    2bRn-STAT replied to edgreen's topic in Men in Nursing

    Nursemike gave you some great advice. If you think that you got fired for saying I love you then you are as stupid as THEY think you are. I cant even believe they tried to tell you that was the...

  21. Should I have chosen nursing?

    2bRn-STAT replied to undecided's topic in General Nursing

    Hi I just wanted to stress that before you make any more decisions you really need to soul search and find your true calling. I get a sense that you are not really motivated to do anything right now...

    2bRn-STAT replied to willti1's topic in Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, CRNA

  25. Best Hospitals in Chicoland Area to Work At

    2bRn-STAT replied to Soozen's topic in Illinois Nursing

    Oh, I see. Maybe it was your LPN experience prior to your Rn that gave you a better rate of pay in Michigan. I am suprised too that IL is paying less starting. Then again, maybe the prestige and...
