3. do you type or write your notes?

   180Chick replied to Zoe*aka*studentnurse's topic in General Students

   180Chick replied to country_boy's topic in General Students

   The main campus in Harrogate, in my opinion, is not disorganized at all. You start out with about 40 students in your class, maybe a little more. It is difficult to keep an 80, and they WILL kick you...

   180Chick replied to 12breakfree's topic in General Students

   Wow! Oh my goodness. I have never heard of only one chance to pass the math. Our program sent us a letter in the mail over the summer saying we had to get a certain med-math book and study 10 chapters...
