    Bbett replied to Louise Henaut's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Bbett replied to Fruit Sucker's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Too old for BSN?

    Bbett replied to forever88's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Bbett replied to GiveMeTheCoffee's topic in Michigan Nursing

    The material in the program is not hard. What makes the program difficult is the time constraints. The classes are 4week classes, so it's usually an exam every week. Adding it in with working and you...

    will all accredited BSN programs basically give you the same education

    Bbett replied to fatrabbit's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Check the pass rates on the NCLEX for schools in your area. Just because a program is BSN doesn't mean it's the best school. Surprisingly the best RN program in Michigan is a CC program and not a BSN....

    Is a B in A&P bad?

    Bbett replied to mdiada's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It really depends on how many credits it was worth. At my college AP was worth 6 credits, so a B in it would have severely negativity affected the chances of getting it. But if it is worth just as...

    Bbett replied to AMC27's topic in General Students

    The cliques probably have a lot to do with your large class size. Even with the 32 people we have we still get cliques. I mostly ignore most people and just worry about myself. I went through a rut...

    But they do round up. So an 90.5 would be a 91 but a 90.4 would be a 90. It made me mad also but I got over it lol After you apply you will get a paper in the mail showing your EXACT GPA. For example...
