A bunch of the schools cost a lot of money. Did you do anything to supliment your income? Or did you save prior to school? Or did you take out loans?

How soon can you try this trick from when you took the exam?

Congratulations. Taking mine at the end of the month

That's actually really good. Even though you don't have insurance you are compensated well enough to get your own insurance. The rent is a big factor, I heard SF real estate is brutal.

Thanks you everyone for the responses

Thanks you. I will definitely encourage her

Oh wow. I go to school in NYC so I would think the salary would be comparable. I know nurses here are starting at $35 an hour and some $40 depending on the health care facility. I didn't know Chicago was heavily saturated with nurses, but then again I'm sure there are a plethora of nursing schools in Chicago. I know a friend from my program wants to move there upon graduation. Do you think it is worth it?

Thank you all for responding it's helpful because I know a few of my friends in the cohort who want to move, and I would have thought Chicago would have been higher since it is a major city

Thanks you for the input. Was talking with a few of my cohorts and we were curious about the pay in different regions of the country.

School is NOT easy and for some of us it definitely isn't cheap. For an upcoming new grad like myself I am curious to what new grads make. As we all know every region is different so please help us out. What is the pay for new grads WITHIN THE PAST 3 YEARS? Please Input: City/State: Position: Pay: Benefits: Housing/Rent in area:
