1. Ideas for a clinical "cheat sheet" ?

   taodepooh replied to AOx1's topic in General Students

   Awesome thread! I start clinicals in just 2 weeks and I'm really nervous about being prepared to make the most of my time there. I have a wonderful clinical instructor but I'm still shaking in my clogs.

2. If you could study before A & P I, what would you have done to get ahead before it??

   taodepooh replied to vizzle's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I would have liked to have a better hold on all the bones, bone features and muscles. That was a lot of memorization in such a short period of time for me. Also reviewing the immune system would have made that chapter a lot smoother for me. Our prof....

3. Need Support

   taodepooh replied to DesertRoseAZ's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Hugs! You are not a failure and this does happen to people all the time. Most programs have a policy about how many times you are allowed to retake a class (mine is that you can retake science courses once each but no more, other courses you can ret...

5. Microbiology - Fall 2008

   taodepooh replied to PreRN Katie's topic in Pre-Nursing

   No presentations or reports for this professor. She even made a huge deal at the beginning about how there were no ways to get extra credit and the only break we get is in lab. In there we can drop our lowest quiz grade and double the highest one (on...

6. is the Nervous System for A&P1 really that hard to learn?

   taodepooh replied to JadenRN TO BE's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I loved the nervous system way more than the bones and muscles. I found it all easier to remember and really fascinating. To help me understand it from all angles I watched Dr. Marian Diamond's lectures on the anatomy and then a few other people's ...

7. Got my letter last night.

   taodepooh replied to taodepooh's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Thank you all so much!! When I went to class yesterday I really expected to hear how everyone got accepted and I was geared up to not get sad about my alternate standing. Well, some had not gotten their letters at all, others did make it (the ladie...

   Hugs! You can do it! How are your lab grades? Do you know if she drops a lowest test grade at the end? Hang in there!

10. Got my letter last night.

    taodepooh replied to taodepooh's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Thank you girls! The more I think about it the more positive I feel about it. I have met some wonderful people in my classes who have been told no several times and this was not a complete no. It will be interesting to go to class tomorrow and to ...

11. Got my letter last night.

    taodepooh posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

    I returned home from a wonderful weekend away with my husband (our 10th anniversary) to find THE letter in my mail. I was shaking and near tears sitting with it unopened in my lap. Bryan offered to open it for me but I felt like I should see it first...

12. WCCCD..Called the nursing office today

    taodepooh replied to MISSALISSA777's topic in Pre-Nursing

    We also got a more definitive time frame for our letters today too - the first week in November. We'll just have to see if they are telling the truth. The nursing dept. had an open house on October 16th and this week people were getting letters from...

13. To the girl who was texting all through chemistry class....

    taodepooh replied to polka-dot's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I am constantly blown away by the "kids" texting in class. In Micro there are a few girls who text through lecture AND lab. In my ethics class there a guy that sits next to me who has never bought the class texts and spends the whole class time eithe...

    taodepooh replied to PreRN Katie's topic in Pre-Nursing

    That looks a lot like what we covered on our first exam. I am by no means doing great in this class but on the info I do know well it's because I made 4x6 study cards that I carried everywhere and I looked at whenever I had a few moments. For memori...
