   llg I appreciate your comments. I believe everything happens for a reason. It is a shame that I did not take the time to research myself and my learning style prior to starting. I am partly to blame and I take some of the responsibility. Befor...

   It partly is a nursing question because I am asking if there is any schools that would take some of the credits or if i have to start all over. I have done some research and it seems as if nothing counts and I would have to start from square one.
