    mcubed45 replied to kcalohagirl's topic in General Nursing

    ah ic ic. i'm sure as long as people keep an open mind they'll fit in just fine here. Hawaii is a bit unique in that there's such a diverse cultural background in such a tiny place. it can be quite...

    mcubed45 replied to kcalohagirl's topic in General Nursing

  13. GPA vs grades

    mcubed45 replied to fUsi0n86's topic in General Nursing

    as others mentiond, it depends on the school's admission policies. some schoolS don't even look at your GPA - they only look at your pre-req grades. this is helpful for applicants who started in a...

  18. Does being a guy have any affect on being accepted into your schools nursing program?

    mcubed45 replied to cjcsoon2bnp's topic in Male Nursing Students

    if a school is actually admitting less qualified male applicants over highly qualified female candidates then i'd imagine that'd be grounds for a sex discrimination lawsuit. if female applicants...
