   WVlpn2b replied to picurn10's topic in LPN, LVN Students

9. Nln-pax???

   WVlpn2b posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   I'm sorry if this has been discussed elsewhere -- I can't even find the thread I started on it a few weeks ago. I'm scheduled to take the NLN-PAX on 6/5 for admission into an RN program. I see lots...
