No More Pre-Reqs

WOO HOO!! I have decide to apply to a different nursing school, and that means no more pre-reqs. This is a school I thought I would never get into because they required SAT scores. Since I have a GED and never took the SATs I thought it was out of reach. But now they have changed things up, and to my benfit.:yeah:So I can take the micro bio, and the psy classes I have left once in nursing school. Here is what they require. BTW this is a hospital diploma program.
