  5. A ? For DFW Nurses!

  12. How many extra credits should I take?!

    Thanks guys! Self-sabotage is exactly what I am concerned about. Mostly for my GPA because I want to go on and get my masters. The english class would be online and I know the teacher and she is fantastic. The math class would be 3 days a week in the...
