    mindofmidwifery replied to jessicarnorot's topic in General Students

    Checking out Fortis College in Phoenix, Arizona

    mindofmidwifery replied to megster871's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    HESI A2, so nervous

    mindofmidwifery replied to mindofmidwifery's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam
