   gams77 replied to emily_ganshert's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

5. Gain or Lose Weight?

   gams77 replied to gams77's topic in General Students

   I guess it depends on the stress. With "personal" issues, I tend to not eat, which I will either gain or lose, depending on how long it goes on. The stress of studying, I EAT! I am trying to get back...

13. Southern University SON???

    gams77 replied to gams77's topic in Louisiana Nursing

    I just don't even know where to get started! I wonder if Southern shows preference toward students who take the pre-req's there or if it's okay to take them elsewhere like at BRCC. I don't even know...
