Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Building on previous learning experiences, accelerated programs are designed to
transition adults with baccalaureate and graduate degrees in other fields into nursing. A strong
work history, volunteer experience, and an available mentor in the field are all assets for
success, but these are less likely to be absolutely required for admission.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Internships and residencies for new graduates have been instituted by hospitals to
ease the transition from the role of student to that of staff by providing the opportunity to
increase clinical skills and knowledge as well as self-confidence. Taking more academic
courses and/or working as a nursing assistant are unlikely to increase Julia's confidence and
competence in her clinical nursing role.
