  1. GPA

    Intern67 replied to JonB04's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Don't worry about the median. Get a 4.0 and you will have no problems. If you cannot get a 4.0, get as close to that as you can - what I mean is do the best you can. "Normal" students can afford to...

    Intern67 replied to mjacobs's topic in General Students

  8. I Think I am NOT Going to NS

    Intern67 replied to Donald11's topic in General Students
