    I'm not sure if this is something new or not. I have "flare" pants, but to be honest, I don't think there's much flare in them to be noticeable. The slit is noticeable, but I mean, only if you look...

    GabbsRN replied to SLPtobeRN's topic in Florida Nursing

    from what I've seen on this board before, you will have to retake BSC1085/Lab and BSC1086/lab at a private school, such as Kaiser and transfer it over. For Chem, I think you can take a a higher level...

    If anyone lives near Coral Springs, there is a walk in clinic in the Walmart off of 441 and Sample that is pretty cheap. I did my PPD and Physical for $55 (just re-did them again because you have to...
