   About the DUI...a guy in one of my pre-req classes had to change his major to Public Health, instead of Nursing. He had a DUI about 3 years ago. It is my understanding that the DUI has to be over 7 years ago for NCLEX board to consider you for taking...

   BTW, a girl on here just got accepted with all B's and 1 C on her main prereqs. I think she got an 84% on the TEAS and did well on her essay. So, that shows that you don't have to have straight A's atleast like I thought.

    So National does have a good reputation in the hospitals? Great! I was wondering about that because I know it will effect our hiring opportunities. I know a few people who have turned their noses up a National because "it's not a real school" But, it...
