  1. 2nd Degree, Direct Entry and/or Accelerated Programs

    dorkypanda replied to 808tothe48's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    For prereqs you must check the nursing programs if they accept or don't accept courses taken online and if so which ones do they accept. If you could take them on campus do so. I think the sciences...

  2. 2nd Degree, Direct Entry and/or Accelerated Programs

    dorkypanda replied to 808tothe48's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    dorkypanda replied to hallecharlebois's topic in General Students

  9. Procrastination

    dorkypanda replied to krrbrr's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Procrastinating seems to be a cycle that continues. I guess you can view it as a distraction to not completing your work, or suppose to be studying time. Maybe you could scare yourself with...
