    booklovinrn replied to missnida's topic in General Nursing

    booklovinrn replied to missnida's topic in General Nursing

    I have heard that UAMS is easier to get into than from UCA. From what I've heard most every program is easier to get in than UCA. I think (maybe someone on the board you has gone there will tell us...

    booklovinrn replied to missnida's topic in General Nursing

    booklovinrn replied to mamarah's topic in General Nursing

    Does anyone know about the test you take when you enter UAMS's BSN program? It looks like it is not a condition to get in, but I'm not sure what test it is and what they use the scores for. I saw...
