    SarahStoddard14 replied to SarahStoddard14's topic in General Students

    I'm so happy that the highway I drive on is pretty safe. There's barely any cars ever. I see tractor trailers once in a while and there's never traffic. The speed limit is 70 but sometimes early in...

    SarahStoddard14 replied to SarahStoddard14's topic in General Students

  15. Is 22 credit hours a semester too much?

    SarahStoddard14 replied to MsDanielle's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If I was you I would postpone the CNA class because you will have clinicals. My cna class had I think a week or 2 of clinicals and they were 8 hours each day. All the other classes shouldn't be too...

  18. Driving an hour to school there and back

    SarahStoddard14 replied to SarahStoddard14's topic in General Students

    SarahStoddard14 replied to SarahStoddard14's topic in General Students
