   Of the people in our class who I have talked to, about 90% are still working full-time. I'm not sure how much longer we will be able to keep it up, but I have a mortgage and bills to pay, so quitting work is not an option. The key to managing the wor...

   Don't get bogged down by the patho book! Read my posts #40 and #42 above to Chiro. You will not be expected to know everything in the book. Even the chapter summaries at the end of each chapter can get too detailed for what you will need to know for ...

   Questions are fact based...no real analysis. 100 questions per test with a 2 hour time limit. I bet if you put an hour a day into studying you'd get an A. I just wasn't that motivated last semester! If I had been able to use my book on the tests, I p...

   I've had a couple people contact me since I took patho in the Fall asking what to study, how to study and what the tests are like. I figured I'd just put a posting out there rather than cutting and pasting the same response to everyone. First off, I ...

   The sheet they gave us at orientation didn't have the ISBN numbers, so it was helpful to those of us who were there, too. Thanks chococat17! Not to take sides or anything, but check www.barnesandnoble.com. I'm not sure how long it lasts, but everyone...

   Hey Chiro...sorry for the long post but didn't spend any time trying to figure out if I could attach a word file. Below is the syllabus for Fall Patho with McArthur at the Dallas Center. Dr. McArthur mentioned in class this week that she will allow b...

    I have experience with the facility from a patient perspective. My father was treated by one of the founding partners for several years. The fact that I am 40 years old and decided to pursue a second degree in nursing partly because of the care he re...

    Hi all. Thanks to whoever started the weekend program thread! I'm taking patho now and have talked to some of the people in the traditional program. Sounds like we've got our work cut out for us. Glad I'll at least have patho out of the way! Congrats...
