    escapebigd replied to jmiarn1029's topic in Texas Nursing

    escapebigd replied to Gjertson's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    At my school Biology comes after AP1 but before AP2. I found it easier to understand that way because a lot of what I learned in AP applied to biology. I know it sounds funny but those 'for dummies'...

  18. Should I do CNA or LPN before I go into the ADN prgram?!

    escapebigd replied to Skylarslaughter's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
