   Good luck to you as well. Those I know who went through the Creighton program seem happy with it. I also applied to UNMC but was regected due to my overall gpa. Creighton has assured me they offer a more holistic examination of apllicants.

   Antepartumnurse replied to Antepartumnurse's topic in Ob/Gyn

10. School advice

    Antepartumnurse replied to nursing6207's topic in General Nursing

    I hate math. I had to start out in college in a very basic class and work my way up. That being said I loved statistics. It is much easier (at least for me) than was college algebra. I even got an "A" in the class. That is my first and only "A" in ma...
