1. Things that aggravate the heck out of me!

   Medi-Kate replied to Two Sheds's topic in General Students

   I have a prof that says "lair-nix" instead of larynx. Drives me crazy, but she's a great professor (by far the best I have this semester) so I just bite my tongue when it happens.

2. Failing Patho. Last Day to Drop is Tomorrow.

   Medi-Kate replied to Medi-Kate's topic in Student Assist

   Well, I've decided to stick it out. I've gotten together with a friend of mine who has a high B (the highest grade anyone has) and she said she's going to show me how she studies for patho. The problem I'm having is that her lectures are very general...

3. Failing Patho. Last Day to Drop is Tomorrow.

   Medi-Kate posted a topic in Student Assist

   I'm so upset, and I don't know what to do. I got a 68 on my first Pathophysiology test, so I studied like crazy for the second one which proved to be even harder and I got a 62. Tomorrow is the last day to drop without getting an F for the course and...

4. Preparing for A&P I

   Medi-Kate replied to BSNMomOf6's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Get your book early, and start reading. The first 3 chapters are usually a review, so make sure you have a good handle on them. Barron's Anatomy flashcards are good for muscles, bones, and the parts of the brain. Oh, and clear your schedule. Good luc...

6. From Las Vegas to Savannah

   Medi-Kate replied to imanedrn's topic in Georgia

   Savannah is a lovely city, I grew up in NYC and spent a few years here as a child and last year chose to move my family back here. Savannah just grows on you I guess. While the rate of pay may be lower, the cost of living here is decidedly lower than...

7. Armstrong Atlantic State University (AASU) pre-nursing or nursing students?

   Glad to hear you got in, Megan. All 80 students will have lecture together on Mondays and Tuesdays 9-12 and 1-4. On Wednesday and Thursday each you will have one lab (either 9-12 or 1-4). That brings it to 4 lectures and 2 labs. If you want to do the...

8. The HRSA Nursing Scholarship

   Medi-Kate replied to Rags2Riches RN's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Character counts do not include spaces (this from my computer programmer husband). The recommendation letters need to be in a sealed envelope from your (professor, mentor, community leader...) with their signature across the seal. It doesn't say if t...

10. The HRSA Nursing Scholarship

    Medi-Kate replied to Rags2Riches RN's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I'm in the process of doing the supplemental paperwork for the scholarship and am having trouble. I can get the required people to write letters on my behalf, but I always seem to mess up the "essay" portions of applications (if 2500 characters can e...

12. I got accepted!!!

    Medi-Kate replied to Medi-Kate's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I already mapped out my *ideal* schedule for Fall, but I'm sure it will change. It looks pretty doable, as long as I don't have to work. I get advised on Tuesday, so I'll see.

13. How many times did you apply before you got accepted?

    Medi-Kate replied to wannabe an rn's topic in Pre-Nursing
