   ivaninhabar: I'll be at Colton this August. Aggie_nurse: I think the site does matter. Colton only take up to 11 tops, and they fill up immediately. I heard Mobile is one of the last sites? Just what...

   Thank you. I didn't pursue Kaiser. I opted out of USC mainly for the drive, and I stopped the process with Kaiser for the same reason. It would have been too much with the commute and work, and moving...

   So I thought that their chem course was all I needed. I was informed that it will satisfy the requirement if you tool chem a long time ago and need to refresh. It is not a stand alone course. Kind of...

    Sounds like you have good experience. Your GPA is the only thing that isn't great. If you get your CCRN and do really well on your GRE, it will help overshadow that. My GRE was 315 and I had a 4.0,...

    I have read that TWU is famous for pharm. They want to see that you know about the drugs, drips mostly, that you use most. Know the pharmacokinetics, what receptors they bind to, normal dosing and...
