  10. LoneStar CyFair College Fall 2009

    rjsalimi replied to djNyla's topic in Texas Nursing

    I believe the point cutoff was 11.4 for the Spring 2009. From what I hear, it was a little lower the year before so it's getting a bit more competative each year. My group did our clinicals for the...

    rjsalimi replied to Multicollinearity's topic in General Students

    Everything I own is second hand except for the recliner that our kids and myself bought my husband for X-mas. With that said, I'd buy a new sofa (replacing the futon) and a matching love seat. Also...
