   Jess, are you starting the program at 2nd year since you're in an LPN program now? Also, I'm very curious what your experience was there. I have friends in that neighborhood who went there (years...

   sciencegeek321 replied to Deevine's topic in Illinois Nursing

   Oh really? That's interesting. If we have class together, we'll have to carpool every now and again...these $5 gas prices and long commute are going to kill! Lol. Anyway, I have not emailed her back...

    I think I read on another thread that she is out for the day. Probably the sheer exhaustion of dealing with all 2500 of us little stalkers for months on end. I also saw like 2 others on that same...

    sciencegeek321 replied to CareerChange2011's topic in Illinois Nursing

    Hanwinting...I am glad to hear you got into Truman, but I think that's a really terrible attitude to have. I had an undergrad gpa of 3.6 and have gotten mostly A's on my prereqs, except for micro (B)...
