   Ellara replied to Best8485's topic in CA Programs

   I never wrote the test but keep practicing to feel more confident. Watch videos on the Khan Academy website. As for being a mature student, 33 is young and there were people in their 50's in the RPN program.

8. What is it like being on the waiting list for RPN?

   Ellara replied to thea1512's topic in CA Programs
