    BeachsideRN replied to JuliusSeizure's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    ABSN chances??

    BeachsideRN replied to Miz17's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If they allow retakes then likely they don't "look down upon" it. Best thing to do would be to ask flat out. Simply say I plan on retaking xyz, however I am curious as to whether the admissions...

    If the classic III was available last year I would have gotten that one. Love my cardio III but it's overkill for school purposes. I love the classic iii esp since it has the peds/adult
