  13. I just got the statistics for entry into my 2nd school of choice, TWU. This is really rough! "Right now the statistics we see are 3.8-4.0 GPA, high 80's on the TEAS V exam, and 3 out of the 3...

    This is an interesting thread. I was curious too! I have a pair of Dansko's that I have owned for quite a while. They actually make my feet hurt, but they are not the professional kind. Has anyone...
  23. I would be interested to find out how much time you spend studying in the pre-nursing program (the first 6 months). I am trying to decide if I want to shoot for application next summer or wait until...
