   violets ripple replied to PRETTYODD's topic in General Nursing

   Me-oww! I've seen them in action here too. Oh, the claws can come out and some nurses don't even see it coming. In nature, survival goes to the nurturer. The ones who teach and assist, not to the...

   Wow Losbozos. It sounds like your pain was extenive, I mean, it reached long after you were a goner. Gone are the good ole JCHO days when administrators actually had their toes to the fire once...

   RNDude, y'know, thinking back, I took STATS as a Math requirement. Maybe that is why it counted as 'fulfilled'. Don't you think it's a great program? I

   Yes, Sand_Dollar, I'm referring to CCConline. I was so happy to get my A in Stats, thinking it would do something beautiful to my GPA. That didn't happen, all I got was acknowledgement that the...

    I forgot to mention that the grade is transferred as pass or fail. Like if you got an A in class, it won't help your GPA. Still, you get to knock off required classes in a few

    Hi Wondern. I'm sorry you got suckered into playing Joan of Arc for the others who were in the same situation as you. In groups, there is always one who takes the complaints of others to heart and...

    Yep, it is a little more expensive but theyare so fair. I took statitistics through CCCon-line and really appreciated their system. You can test twice and take the best.
