4. WOW!!! I just saw how much first semester books cost!!!

   Live4Medicine replied to Waitingtill2010's topic in General Students

   I don't know anything about where you live, but based on your age, have you tried looking at an affordable four year college for your BSN? As I said, I don't know about CA, but here in the south, LSU, Loyola, and other neighboring schools are much ...
