  1. Nursing School Professional Ref, Essay

    MarathonGirl replied to Beezlee2000's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    MarathonGirl replied to Lurdes777's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  8. Pre-Nursing Students & Volunteer Work

    MarathonGirl replied to MelaninMonroe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  10. Which is harder?

    MarathonGirl replied to bondocjensen's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't think the OP meant which is harder: going to school and being a mom OR going to school, working, and being a mom. She just hears people say it is hard to work AND go to school. But she doesn't...

    MarathonGirl replied to mduval007's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi - it is reading comprehension and math. The math is easy but the reading comp. can be tricky. Go to the ERI website and order their study guide - it is exactly like the test. You can also buy a...

  12. Which is harder?

  14. Pre-Nursing Students & Volunteer Work

    MarathonGirl replied to MelaninMonroe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think ever if it isn't health related, volunteering in any community oriented activity would be a positive. But if you have strong grades, strong scores, good essay etc. I think they understand if...

    MarathonGirl replied to maximus76's topic in California Nursing

    Hi - I'm sorry you are so worried. If I were you, I would go in and meet with the admissions counselors. They are there on Tues. and Wed. from 10-11am I believe (in Oakland). Are you applying to the...

    MarathonGirl replied to crisbiss's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
