  8. How old is too old to become a new RN?

    One point of contention: A school with a high NCLEX pass rate SHOULD be a consideration. Sent from my XT1585 using
  9. Fast track nursing programs

    Wrong. Fast track is not necessarily a marketing ploy. I went to a private, non-profit and it was 16 months. My son is at a local community college and it's 16 months. Is the CC a ploy? Sent from my...
  10. I need a mentor

    I would equate NCLEX with ATI. Very similar. Sent from my XT1585 using
  11. I need a mentor

    Thanx. Everyone is different but you can overdose on anything including studying. And I've had cohort mates who went crazy and bought the extra stuff to study for NCLEX. And they did well in school....

  22. How old is too old to become a new RN?

    Thank you! Everyone has keyed in on the age but no one asked about what physical shape the OP is in. I am 58 but in a lot better shape than a lot of nurses I see (read obese) that are decades younger...
  23. Nursing Student Working At A Hospital

    Check at your hospital if you aren't sure. Here in Jacksonville, FL, you are almost certain to be hired. Kinda like being a legacy for college. UF Health will hire an ASN who is a current employee,...
