  1. should i quit?

    Anne36 replied to pyocola's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Anne36 replied to sle1191's topic in Patient Safety Issues

    Anne36 replied to mmsgurl18's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Congrats on your A. I just finished Med-Surg 2 at Southfield. We were all very concerned about the weather as well. Im glad they didnt close, it would have been so much more stressful

  7. OCC Nursing program

    Anne36 replied to mmsgurl18's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I didnt know there were going to be new admission criteria. I have not heard any rumors. It does make sense to some extent because the GPA keeps increasing every year to get into the program. Why are...

    Anne36 replied to Kimberly6891's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Anne36 replied to rjones416's topic in LPN, LVN Students

  12. Nursing school is pretty easy so far...

    Anne36 replied to rjones416's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    A&P is a pre-req not a Nursing class. I dont totally disagree with you, the material is not really harder to learn in Nursing school, but the exams get progressively more difficult and what I...

  13. Pregnancy and dismissal from nursing school

    Anne36 replied to Bronxtale's topic in LPN, LVN Students

  23. Which school should I go to? Questions?

    Anne36 replied to rystle's topic in Michigan Nursing
