Thanks for your helpful honesty! I haven't really gone to comm. college for 4 years, I have taken a couple years off in between now and the last time I went and have never taken a full time load either ( i was just kinda spacing everything out) but ...
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...
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...
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?

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...

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...
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...
