1. Classes to take while waiting

   oklamedic2011 replied to bridgegeisler's topic in General Students

   I would definitely knock out Chemistry, statistics etc. Look at the program advisement for any local RN to BSN program and go ahead and get a head start if that is the career path you are wanting to follow.

5. OCCC spring 2016

   oklamedic2011 replied to Audrey1313's topic in General Students

   I will be starting Spring of 2016. The reason I chose this program over OCCC was the LPN career ladder. I have my LPN license and can jump right in, they do this at OCCC, but getting in is a lot harder. Rose state is competitive, but not as competiti...

10. How to deal with stereotypes and vicious people

    oklamedic2011 replied to rnhopeful2014's topic in Male Students

    I just laugh in their face, then ask them to hold my bags of money. If that doesn't work, I like to go with the "I get to work with beautiful women on a daily basis, why wouldn't I pick this profession?" Funny responses to a serious bias we as male n...

    oklamedic2011 replied to wolfashley89's topic in Criminal
