  2. Clinical instructor gives study guide to clinical group is this unfair

    BusiestBSN replied to chiasmus100's topic in General Students

    You said you received an A but the instructor did other things you do not agree with. Is that the real reason why this is bothering you? There is no cheating or "rule breaking " so you should probably...

  4. ATI Testing for BSN Students

    BusiestBSN replied to Jen2010's topic in General Students

  5. Alternative majors?! Out of motivation.

    BusiestBSN replied to ohhivivian's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  7. Finish BSc or straight to nursing school?

    BusiestBSN replied to diandroid's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    No clue where you live, but a majority of the time having a bachelor's in another field does not mean a pay increase. Most employers only increase your pay if you have a bachelor's, not an...

  9. Failed Second Fundamentals Test

    BusiestBSN replied to cate3624's topic in General Students

    Both GrnTea and LadyFree28 gave you awesome advice. Use it. And do not expect a website like quizlet to provide the right information. It is like citing Wikipedia in a research paper. It is not...

    BusiestBSN replied to smcki008's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  14. How to find out nclex pass rates

    BusiestBSN replied to Hibbzem17's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would call your board of nursing. Ask if they keep that data or if they have it available for you. I think knowing the retention rate is important because you can see patterns developing. In a five...

  15. Did u get a letter or email?

    BusiestBSN replied to Hibbzem17's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  16. RN or Straight to BSN?

    BusiestBSN replied to USAFscrub's topic in General Students

    "RN" is not the name of the degree - it is the name of the license. You are thinking of an associates. Many take the associate degree route, especially if they have to work sooner. If your local...

  18. Help! What am i going to do??!!!

    BusiestBSN replied to svgcastillo's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You may want to look into an associate degree program or traditional BSN that just looks at your pre req GPA and ace those pre reqs. Accelerated BSN programs tend to be very competitive & I don't...

    BusiestBSN replied to erint91DC's topic in General Students

  22. Why NOT private??

    BusiestBSN replied to MssNurse2b's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Nekozuki, I agree with what you said and admire your determination. I do have to add that internships are not set up like that everywhere. In my state, hospitals offer internships and externships to...

  23. Why NOT private??

    BusiestBSN replied to MssNurse2b's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would never attend a private for profit school like Chamberlain. There are too many schools in my area that offer a good, solid bachelors degree. I could not be desperate enough pay that much money...
