  4. Do you think this is a good idea? Please give me some feedback.

    Thanks for the advice! I was actually wondering if I should do a rn program at a community college first and then do a bridge program to do a bsn? Most schools in the Bay Area are not taking second...

  21. Hello, I earned my B.S. in Health Sciences at UCSC and...well my graduation GPA isn't quite 3.0 (2.92). It's quite low. I'm a very hard working student and I feel that my grades don't reflect on the...
