    HeyHeyitsMaay replied to Mytime2shine's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    HeyHeyitsMaay replied to Tony1790's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    I moved to Pa from Texas due to family responsibilities, and I'm really discouraged and don't even start school for another 2 months! LPN's here, because of the historically awful economy, don't make...

  7. I'm the only minority in my program!Any Puerto Ricans out there?

    HeyHeyitsMaay replied to Mytime2shine's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing
