    plaza replied to Kaileeia's topic in LPN, LVN Students

  19. Can I still do it?

    plaza replied to IClaimNursingSchool's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Six classes per quarter is a lot. I too am not the world's best test taker. I graduated from college 30+ years ago. For some goofy reason, I told myself that I needed to do it in 4 years. As an ag...
