    phoenixnim replied to rse3's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

  7. Are these too many pre-reqs to take for nursing?

    phoenixnim replied to Tinkk's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  14. What class to take first Bio, Chem, or A&P? Help!

    phoenixnim replied to Neuro_Eck's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    phoenixnim replied to phoenixnim's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks everyone. I'm still kind of freaking out. I seem to do okay with matching when I have a word bank. But I can't seem to come up with most names off the top of my head yet and we start muscles...

    phoenixnim replied to sjg8412's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  22. What type of nursing do you want to specialize in?

    phoenixnim replied to bluesky94's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It is not true that CNM (Certified Nurse-Midwife) will soon need a PhD. ACNM does NOT support the change and they have released several notices on their stance that they feel a masters degree is...

    phoenixnim replied to snowwhite2002's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
