    LuckyinKY replied to sophie<3's topic in General Nursing

  12. Forum for BCTC students begining in the FALL 2010

    LuckyinKY replied to miss_V's topic in General Nursing

    If a spot doesn't open up, I'll probably just take the GED and go to grad school for now. I have classmates who are in the nursing program now though that said it is 98% likely I will be in since...
