    If you really are 76th thats actually not that bad. This is my backup school anyway and I'm sure it is for a great handful of others. 15 people out of 60 would have to take another school and that...

    Yeah, definitely call and ask. Maybe you were supposed to have 79 points but they didn't calculate it right or didn't get a transcript processed right which messed up your GPA. If they said you've...

  9. Mt. SAC application for spring 2016

    I find it borderline rude when people tell you that you can't work or be prepared to not work during nursing school. It's like, how very presumptuous of you that all of your students are 20 year olds...

  17. Better NCLEX Pass Rates, Better School?

    Pass rates and trends of that sort can be pretty telling when it comes to the quality of a program. However, you should look at the class sizes and how many people actually sat for the NCLEX. If 9...
