    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to jmiarn1029's topic in Texas Nursing

    Yep that'll be me... Planning on turning in my app in about 2 weeks once I've taken the HESI. I think I overreacted with the nervousness though, I have good grades from my prereqs, I took a buttload...

  15. Questions regarding getting a RN with a bachelors already

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to StarvingArtist's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    sugarmagnoliaRN replied to NIBIE's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
