1. A&P - Lecture exams v. Lab Practicals

   ApostolicGirl replied to snow_bear's topic in Pre-Nursing

   the practicals are really hard for me. There's just so much information, and I'm having a very hard time with it. Our first practical was over tissues and the integumentary system, and cells. We had to look in a microscope and identify the cells, kno...

3. I failed a math test :(

   ApostolicGirl replied to ApostolicGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Thank you... I failed the A&P lab practical I took that day too. It was just an all-around bad day I did email my math professor. She emailed me back that night and said I can take the make-up exam that she has made up for anyone who missed this...

5. I failed a math test :(

   ApostolicGirl posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

   And I don't know what the heck happened. I knew how to do the homework, I aced the practice test, and then I failed the real test. And I had a practical exam for A&P1 today- I hope I did okay on it. I think I did okay. *crosses fingers* Ok, I mos...

   ApostolicGirl replied to ApostolicGirl's topic in Alabama

   Thank you, I have contacted them to find out what classes I need to take. I just forgot to ask them how competitive it is to get accepted.

7. How competitive is UAH's nursing school?

   ApostolicGirl posted a topic in Alabama

   I'm currently taking pre-reqs at Calhoun and I really do like the school. However, at this point I'm thinking I'd rather just go straight for my BSN rather than getting my ADN and bridging over later. I'm worried though that I won't be able to get ac...

9. Necessary to take Bio I before A&P I?

   ApostolicGirl replied to craftypepper's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I just went straight to A&P. I did struggle a bit in the first unit, with the chapters on chemistry and cells though. Taking Bio first probably would have helped me, but I think I'll be okay without it.

10. Anatomy & Physiology...I'm NERVOUS!!

    ApostolicGirl replied to reesedatdude's topic in General Students

    I'm taking A&P 1 right now too. So far, I'm enjoying it. I am struggling a bit with it. We (my lab group) are forming a study group though. We are all nursing students with the exception of one who is still going into the medical field, so we all...

11. Clinical Hair

    ApostolicGirl replied to VampsGal2009's topic in General Students

    I don't understand how you have to curl your hair to get it into a bun. I recently cut my hair off, but before I did it was past my tailbone, and thick. I put it in a ponytail, then twisted and wrapped the ponytail into a bun, Then used another hair ...

    ApostolicGirl replied to lemidora's topic in General Students

    My grandfather, who helped to raise me, passed away a month and a half ago. The nurses were really great. They called when they realized that his breathing changed and suspected that he was nearing the end, gave my grandmother and I a brief update wh...

13. How is your A&P teacher?

    ApostolicGirl replied to K.S.T's topic in Pre-Nursing

    So far my A&P instructor is great. She is a bit intense and tests are based off of the book, lecture, and extra video lectures that are posted online, and then we have lab tests of course... but she seems to be a REALLY good teacher.

14. starting prereqs !!

    ApostolicGirl replied to sriffey's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I had the same worries- I've been out of high school for almost 9 years now. I'm taking A&P, Psych 200, English 101, and a math class. So far English is the easiest- so easy that I'm bored to tears by the whole thing LOL. A&P is my favorite d...

    ApostolicGirl replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Students

    I sit in the second row, off to the right. It's easy for me to hear and see, but I don't feel like the instructor is staring me down the whole time LOL
