  15. ERI Exit exam

    moomoo111 replied to TSURN2B's topic in General Students

    Jasper, I'm right there with you. It's nothing but a way to give the instructors a break and putting the blame on somebody else. If the pass/fail ratio's are bad, look at the instructors or the...

    moomoo111 replied to Carla25's topic in General Nursing

    moomoo111 replied to ShayRN's topic in General Nursing

    moomoo111 replied to shoegalRN's topic in General Nursing
