    guiltysins replied to SerenePeach's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  5. Discouraged by Nurses who hate their job

    guiltysins replied to Tooimpatient's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    guiltysins replied to Muttlover's topic in New York Nursing

    guiltysins replied to clb6885's topic in Ob/Gyn

    guiltysins replied to NurseinNV's topic in General Students

    Most programs won't allow you to retaked nursing courses. So you may have to go the BSN route because they would want a 3.0 in nursing and overall. So you'll need some additional nursing
