  8. Dominican University advice?

    Maybe wait to see how he cohort that has to take the Kaplan class does on the NCLEX? 42,000/year is a lot of money for an education that only prepares 60% to pass the
  9. Thoughts on Volunteering (New Grad)

    I know someone that volunteered for YEARS on her dream unit, became a UC graduated with her RN and is now training as an RN on that same unit. So it can happen but for this RN it was 6 or 7 years in...
  10. Dominican University advice?

    @sfbauyay It is worrisome and why I dismissed the idea of applying there. 62% pass rate is too low for their expensive education
  11. Which college should I attend?

    I would start by checking cost, NCLEX pass rates, and which schools give you direct entry into their BSN program (given you pass the prereqs). Some schools you may need to apply into their nursing...
  12. Did anyone find anatomy easy?

    Anatomy is not a conceptually difficult class, It's hard due to all the information that must be memorized. If you are studying 20 hours a week for one class, then (IMHO) it is not an "easy" class....

  19. University of San Francisco BSN spring16

    I think there's only one RHET 111 so we should be in the same class :) as for the nursing class, I'm taking the one that starts on the 26th. What is Bio 113? I couldn't get into my science courses...
  20. University of San Francisco BSN spring16

    I have a few things to take before clinicals. I'm taking RHET 111 and 206, NURS 120 and I couldn't get into the science that I need so I'm hoping to take it at a CC if they'll let me
