  6. SUNY Farmingdale

    They use hospitals all over nassau and suffolk, there's a few different time slots and a few different hospitals for each slot. So it depends on the day/time. I think some of them also change by...

    So is your question how to go about doing this? What HAVE you done to remedy it? Why do you think this time will be different? how do you think that you have changed and are now ready for this?...

  12. Definitely check with the school (and all schools that you intend to apply to) because mine did NOT accept regular micro. Also, just a heads up- i was originally registered for the regular...
