  6. How heavily are GPA/TEAS scores weighted?

  7. I'm applying to 3 ADN programs in Feb/March in the South Bay/LA area. One I know has a year and a half waiting list, the other two don't. I have a 4.0 in my prerequisites, and a 3.9 something for...
  8. How heavily are GPA/TEAS scores weighted?

  14. Los Angeles Harbor College

    which waitlists are you on? I've been looking into the LA County Nursing School, it doesn't look like there's any wierd pre-reqs, so I may as well apply there too. I'm applying at LA Harbor and El...
  15. Los Angeles Harbor College

    I was talking to one of the counselors last week. She said that after you take the TEAS, they do a lottery and whoever gets in, gets in, and whoever doesn't has to re-apply. She said that there is...

  23. Too much?

  24. Microbiology-Spring 2008

    wow, that 4 week class is crazy!!! I found a wierdly scheduled Micro and am about to finish my 16-week class at the end of this month. I've really enjoyed it, though the tests have been pretty...
