    DarkBluePhoenix replied to hdcsulb's topic in California Nursing

    Thanks for the honesty. I don't have any tact, and its hard to show what you want to say w/o it coming out wrong. I just don't want to see someone go into nursing, because of a fallback and hate it...

    DarkBluePhoenix replied to hdcsulb's topic in California Nursing

    DarkBluePhoenix replied to hdcsulb's topic in California Nursing

    22 is young. Plus there isn't a lot of nursing jobs anyway. Don't pick nursing because pharmacy is too long and too hard to do. Pick nursing because that's what you truly want to

    DarkBluePhoenix replied to hdcsulb's topic in California Nursing

    DarkBluePhoenix replied to hdcsulb's topic in California Nursing

    DarkBluePhoenix replied to rocketberger's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    DarkBluePhoenix replied to Spiffyness's topic in California Nursing

    As much as it isn't fair, my friends that didn't get in were not allowed to apply again unless they choose not to attend CSULB. It's just like how you had to change your major ST. It
