  3. Anyone worried about throwing up or passing out?

    This is soo helpful hearing from everyone! I know I'm a squemish person and know it's something I have to desensitize myself to. It'd funny hearing about how people are squemish about mouths/ teeth because I was watching this real life medical dram...
  4. Can I really do this?!

    I've been floating through community college for 4 years now not being able to make up my mind, and after I gave it some very long thought- i chose to pursue an associate's degree in nursing. I have a great GPA, do well in school, love learning abou...
  5. Houston area- where do you work while you're in school?

    Cool thanks- I'm not a full time student yet tho, not in nursing school yet, I can afford to work a little, even tho I know I'll be busy. Any suggestions?
  6. Hey I'm wondering if anyone has any advice on where you worked while you were in school. Obviously, I don't have any kind of degree yet or certification, but would like to work in some sort of medical field- just to become acclimated to that type of...
  7. Microbiology FIRST EXAM (FAILED) :[

    I thought I was the only one to run out of my first ap lab! :) I withdrew, took it again and got an A- and I def. failed a couple of the tests we had- it's all about how you're going to make it up, it's about all the grades as a whole, not just one ...
  8. How Hard Is A&P1?

    I've been taking it now for a couple of weeks, so I can't say I know how hard it will be, but from what I know so far its just a lot of information and it can get complicated trying to keep it all straight in your head. Everyone told me it was a lot ...
  9. How Helpful was the Anatomy coloring book for you?

    Wow, head start! you're going to do great! A week before my class started I read and made notes and flashcards for the first two chapters of my book, and it helped a lot because the first day of class we started doing the assignments within the boo...
  10. I'm debating whether I should get the recommended materials such as the anatomy coloring book, and I was just wondering if it was very helpful or maybe not that helpful? Or maybe there was something else that was an even better studying tool?

    Mentholatum was what I was talking about! Thanks for the post!
  12. A&P 1 Spring 08

    I think we have a cadaver too, but I don't know if my teacher was joking about that or not! I know we have a cat dissection and also a dissection of a sheep's eye. I started taking this class over a year ago then dropped so all this was no surprise...

    Good luck everyone! I start tonight!! This is my first college science/lab class, (even though I've been taking college classes for about 3 years now) and I've already been studying this entire past week, just reading through chapters one and two an...
  14. I may not know a whole lot yet seeing as I am just starting out, but I do know some! I'm already enrolled in a school, thank-you-very-much, I thought I wanted to be an english major, but realized how little you can do with that, so I recently started...
