How much should I expect to start out with as an RN with associate's degree...I'm looking at hospitals in Ocean County, NJ...(I am only taking pre requisites right now, didn't even get to the actual nursing classes yet...but just looking ahead into the future as to what I should expect---no, i am not doing this for the money, just curious to see what other people started out with. thanks :))) ). Thanks all!!!!

You are probably looking at around $65 or 70k/yr. That is, if you are lucky enough to find a job. New grads from 2 years ago are still unemployed! And it is not predicted to get any better in the coming years. There is an excess of nurses in this country.
