9. Palm Pilots in Nursing School?

   mbb21 replied to mbb21's topic in General Students

   That's the one I was thinking about getting! The salesman at the electronic store said a lot of nurses and students have it... But it's just so expensive ! I'll take what you said into consideration though!:nuke: Thanks a lot!

    mbb21 replied to BrittRN2b's topic in General Students

    Hey BrittRN2b! I thought a lot of the same things you're saying not too long ago. I applied to the generic BSN program, but since I have a pretty good GPA, the dean of the program wanted me to try out the ABSN program. The thing is, I don't have...
