    oregonrene replied to okie2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  17. Starting school in Fall-Scared of Chem/Math!

    oregonrene replied to Hope2Nurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    oregonrene replied to Sarah Bellum's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My A&P 1 had Biology 101 as a prerequisite. You might want to check to see if yours is the same way. Yes, I definitely think basic bio refresher could help. However, I hadn't had bio in 17...

    oregonrene replied to kdredman's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
