   rndavu replied to CoffeeKeepsMeSane's topic in Western Governors University

   My manager at work did her BSN then MSN in one year total at WGU. So it was possible a few years back. I don't know it they have made changes now to slow people down or not. I have been looking into...

   rndavu replied to jupiter101's topic in First Year After Licensure

   I was an LVN first then ADN RN now. I would recommend that you go through the ADN program. I did it the way I did because I was in a small town in TX that only had an LVN program. A year later they...

7. I think I failed Nclex in 75 questions

   rndavu replied to RN_Dreams's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

   I don't think its exaggeration. It's nervewracking and feels as the you're guessing at every question. I didn't feel sure I was answering with complete confidence. So to me I felt I didn't know my...

   rndavu replied to RN_Dreams's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

   I too had 75 questions and the computer shut off. I was convinced that I failed! I was questioning myself and why it felt I knew none of the answers. Well, thankfully that was 5 years ago and it is...

    rndavu replied to rndavu's topic in Nursing Career

    There are several programs that are RN-MSN track with no BSN needed. It will take 2 years to get my BSN or 2 years to get my MSN. My thought is why would I not get the MSN for the same time and money?...
