    I purchase mine at nwscrubs.com They are a local store for me, but their website has more selection than in store, and usually the cheapest prices on cherokee scrubs. Hope that helps!

  12. Micro @ Clackamas CC

    I'm not entirely sure yet. My GPA is kind of poop. I wish that when I had first started on my prerequisites that I had sat down with an adviser who told me how competitive these programs were, or I had actually researched it on my own. My advisor (in...
  13. Micro @ Clackamas CC
