    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to 20mom10's topic in General Students

    Nursing school.... is just a bunch of BUSY WORK?

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to SilenceDogood's topic in General Students

    Hmmm I can't agree, so far it seems to me the stuff we have been learning is relevant and we haven't had any goofy assignments I would say, most of our paper work is for clinicals and they are what...

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to 1234student's topic in General Students

    It is completely unprofessional of the professor to let the word out she doesn't want a student to pass. Nothing like this has happened in my program thus
