    Broward Community College 2016

    BeachsideRN replied to Tmedschooll's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    For CRNA you will need a BSN plus 2-5 years critical care experience. Fwiw, I also have a Bach in chemistry and a masters degree. I'm now in an ADN program. From there I will bridge over to the BSN...

    BeachsideRN replied to avictoria's topic in General Students

    I do not know about that program, but from your description my gut would tell me the same thing - run. Sounds like IF something happens and you can't finish the masters you are not screwed - likely...

    Public speaking prerequisite

    BeachsideRN replied to whiteymcb12's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    It all depends on the school. If you have a previous speech class it *should* transfer over, you just might have to give them all the info about the course (description, syllabus, etc) and ask for the...

    Is the BSN worth it?

    BeachsideRN replied to NurseCalamity's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I don't think the BSN goes any deeper into AP or skills. Matter of fact I've heard that our local ADN program is much heavier in actual hands on clinical work than the BSN
