2. Chamberlain Economics

   joy686 replied to sMoLsNurse's topic in Chamberlain College

   I got an A in the course, but I felt what they asked of us was beyond reasonable. I basically worked, studied, slept and did it again the next day. It was not designed for nurses. It was meant for an Econ major

    joy686 replied to maria48's topic in Student Assist
