   HIMtoRN2b replied to bananimal's topic in Western Governors

   HIMtoRN2b replied to Aransome's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Math really depends on what level of nursing you want to attain. General rule of thumb is at least stats. If you need remedial math that will mean 4 math classes. If you want to go to graduate school you should consider taking college algebra instead...
