  1. Microbiology: Spring 2010

    Well we had our second exam today, and I didn't do quite as well as on the 1st. (88% on this one, 94% on the first). I'm pretty upset, because I actually spent more time studying this time. I don't feel that it was so much I didn't know the material,...
  2. I'm only in A&P I and I wish I'd taken a medical terminology course! We're learning bones, and having to learn the names of bones and attributes as well as the location of the bones is almost overwhelming. I'm not good at sounding out Latin or G...
  3. Major issues with Chemisry!!!

    I took CHEM 050 over the summer (kind of pre-Chem for the medical fields) and struggled, although I did get an A. I took CHEM 121 last quarter (CHEM for Medical) and whizzed through - partially because I'd taken the pre-Chem course, and partially bec...
  4. Microbiology: Spring 2010

    We had our first test a couple weeks ago (I got 94%) and have our 2nd one this week. I'm feeling pretty good so far, and I'm excited we are starting a "unknowns" in lab this next week. We start with 2 bacterium in a broth, and with a partner have to ...
  5. Anatomy Question Help

    Hmm, if the temperature was too low for kinetic molecular movement, the cell would be DEAD*. Although there would be no movement across the membrane, I doubt that is what the professor is looking for. #1 is like you say, when the extracellular flui...
  6. Considering nursing school, please advise

    I'm 49 & 9/10th's and started my pre-req's this last Summer. I was scared to death - it's been so long since I've been in school, and I didn't know how I would do. Maturity is your asset! As a rule "returning" or "non-traditional age" students do...
  7. What specialty do you want and not want to work in?

    I'm still pre-Nursing, so things could change between now and graduation. I keep joking that I'm going to specialize in geriatrics, 'cause I'm almost there myself (I'm > Like: Any ICU/Critical Care. Top of the list would be transplant work (my ex-...
  8. Older Nursing students

    Wow, I feel less isolated already. Actually, there are a number of non-traditional or returning students in our pre-Nursing program as well. I am on my 3rd quarter, and have 2 more to go for pre-reqs, and then can apply to the nursing program. I tur...
  9. Microbiology: Spring 2010

    I'm taking Microbiology as well. Although not in the catalog as a blended course, in reality it is. The professor has PowerPoint slides, .mp3 lectures, and .doc scripts for the .mp3's, as well as on-line quizs. You can got to lecture to ask questions...
  10. Fall 2011 Hopefuls

    Oh boy, my first post! I haven't started school yet; I'm registered, have my classes and have paid for them (OK, put them on plastic!) for Summer Quarter at Clark College in Vancouver, WA. The last piece is to get the State of Oregon UI to approve m...
