    Shinnichi replied to keeyumbow66's topic in Nursing Career

    Shinnichi posted a topic in General Students

  9. Can old resources still be useful?

    Shinnichi replied to Shinnichi's topic in General Students

    Yeah, I feared so. :/ I'm not in NS yet, but I was hoping to glance ahead. I just can't figure out why she would've used this book if it was so old even back then.

  14. LPNs Often Fare Better Than Some Degree Earners

    Shinnichi replied to TheCommuter's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

  15. If I don't get accepted, what should I do in the meantime?

    Shinnichi replied to NaomiD's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Shinnichi replied to Nursing2102's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
