    I was thinking the same thing. Why me and not you? I wonder if they go off of "tie breaker" flow chart thingy on the nursing web page. Maybe it was the Micro grade or something. Do you think they...

    DawnSue replied to mrs.ant0125's topic in Florida Nursing

    Well, I think I have 12 or 13 points, but it is only based on my calculations, so I could be wrong. I just want this so much that I worry about not having the chance to do it. I bought some books...

    DawnSue replied to mrs.ant0125's topic in Florida Nursing

    Well, I agree with you. I don't want to defer at all. It's time and money wasted, unless we use the time to make money and bank it for when we start school, I guess. I really just want to get...
