    Dude,RN replied to Dude,RN's topic in Post Graduate

    Hey Cool1- I have been with Walden since March 2009, and I had to do some prereq's as well. I did take a statistics course, and like you, lined up a friend who was excellent in math- so that helped. I snagged a "statistics for dummies" book too. ...
