    Hygiene Queen replied to olesya's topic in General Students

    Okay... deep breath... I hate admitting this. I, too, failed out of the program. I had to go before the board and state my case. But before I did that, I had to really think hard about what happened....

    Hygiene Queen replied to DoGoodThenGo's topic in General Nursing
