8. I did it and its so clear now

   peppapig123 replied to IdianaCNA1993's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

13. Communication pre req in two weeks

    peppapig123 replied to ambergoeke's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    O_o looks like you won't be starting then. Why did you wait until 3 weeks before you start nursing school? And you know you needed the class by the end of this

14. Thinking of having a baby while in LPN school

    peppapig123 replied to malloryg's topic in LPN, LVN Students
