  6. These are hilarious to read. There's always at least one in your class that's irritating. I have one in my Microbio class, who sits across from me. However, since the majority of our lab work is...

    Will an ADN = A High School Diploma?

    Thanks for the responses. I saw where my thread was correctly moved to and looked at other threads similar to this topic. What I have gathered is it depends on where you live or the hospital. In...

  11. To be honest with you, the recession is the reason why I've headed back to school to get my Nursing degree. In my A&P classes, about 1/2 are going into Nursing, and a handful has chosen nursing as...
  12. I'm screaming, but refuse to die of stress as I make the decision to withdraw from my Microbiology class, which means I have to leave it for the Summer session instead. Ugh. So instead of being done...
