   MarieStar3132 replied to FloatyFlowers's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Well, first of all, congrats on earning your GED! :) I have mine as well. To start, I'm not really sure how your college works but I can tell you a little bit about my community college. I'm sure it's not exactly the same... but may be similar. When ...

   I hope you will take a few minutes to read my reply. Honestly, I'm not a male and I'm not gay. I'm a female LPN student and I read this and just wanted to give you my thoughts. I love reading the male section because so many people think it's such a ...

7. Waiting for that letter - what to do until then?

   MarieStar3132 replied to Brian's topic in General Students

   Waiting is the worst part! Since I'm in a community college, the waiting list for nursing is super long. I can proudly say that I'm a pretty well rounded individual since I've had to take so many random classes while waiting. I passed the TEAS test b...
