  7. Rasmussen College

    esunada replied to sweetiez's topic in General Nursing

    esunada posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The score that I received on my test doesn't seem to reflect the number I got wrong. However, the score is written directly on the test so I'm not sure how he could have missed anything. Sometimes he...

  20. 2nd degree in nursing WAS IT WORTH IT? GIRL LOST!

    esunada replied to Sophiamez's topic in Nursing Career
