    Sarah812 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi! I needed Chemistry to take A&P, it could either be high school or college level. I never took it in high school, so I enrolled in a "post high school adult General Chemistry" course. The class...

    Sarah812 replied to squeakercarp's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Sarah812 replied to haileigh's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  6. What is the hardest course you have ever taken and why?

    Sarah812 replied to ginna121's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  17. Is it smart to work as both CNA and a RN(associates degree)?

    Sarah812 replied to ladyruth18's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Sarah812 replied to babyv15's topic in General Students

    You sound *just* like me! I was the same in high school, C's and B', but now I'm all A's. It's a lot different when you want to go to school rather than you have to go to school, like high school was....
