  1. Microbiology - Summer 2012

    I'm taking Micro along with Physiology and an online psychology class starting June 3. I'm really nervous about being able to do it all, if I can't maintain my current GPA...well, you know, lol. But since I have a few weeks before school starts bac...
  2. What to take in the summer

    I'm taking Physio and Micro, with Psych online this summer. The science classes meet the same two days so I'll be in class from 1-10p those days, plus an hour drive time there and then back. And I keep hearing something about APA format for Psych pap...
  3. How to balance?

    Although I'm stressed, alot, I try to keep in mind that both my children's childhood and my time in school is going to be incredibly brief. I want to be able to enjoy both and frankly, I just play it by ear. Some days I need to study more than others...
  4. Do you take your laptop to class?

    I take mine to Anatomy b/c the prof posts her slides and it's easier to download and take notes on the powerpoint directly rather than to print it out, plus it's super light to carry. I'm only one of three or four in my class to bring one, but I do ...
  5. A&P 1 Spring 2012 Check-in

    Ladylynn6, I totally feel you. I got a 97 on my first exam, and was actually upset until I realized how silly I was being. Did I really think I'd go through the entire program and NEVER miss a point? Well, actually, yes. Thats what I was hoping for. ...
  6. Nutrition 160

    Thankfully, my nutrition class is fully online, so I can go at my own pace (sort of). Unfortunately, that also means that we're doing 2 plus chapters a week. I just finished the exam over carbs, lipids, proteins, and alcohol. Uck. I have noticed a co...
  7. A&P 1 Spring 2012 Check-in

    We just had our first major exam in my anatomy class last Monday, and b/c the prof was sick and hasn't posted the grade, and we only attend lecture/lab once a week, I have yet to see my score. I'm confident I did well, possibly even an A! I'm kinda a...
  8. Chem 2 made me cry today

    This may be a little late, but what's really helping me in Chem is youtube. Watching the different videos is helping me to understand it, and they often have different ways to explain and tricks to remember that are incredibly helpful. I'm not sure I...
  9. Has anyone taken two science coarses in one semester??

    I'm currently taking Anatomy (they're split at my program), Chem, and Nutrition. All three are labeled as science courses, and actually all three seem to be covering much of the same material. I'm doing fine so far, although whether that'll still be ...
  10. Waiting to hear from Cox College 2012

    hey, CONGRATS! I guess the 3.9 gpa was enough,
  11. How Do I Toughen Up At Work? Part 1

    Maybe you could go stay with your grandma? Fresh start, out of the drama for a while. If you can't control how your brothers make you act, you're going to end up becoming just like them. You obviously know that razing your bro about his grades is wro...
  12. Summer Classes a Good Idea?

    I'm in my first semester of pre-reqs, and with transfers, testing out, and what I'm taking this semester I'll have what I need to apply to the ASN program at my school. I hopefully will start next January. I've heard that you shouldn't try to take ge...
  13. Waiting to hear from Cox College 2012

    I'm not waiting, but I plan on applying for the ASN program at the end of this semester. Are you doing the guarenteed acceptance thing? I'm lacking some classes for that, but have the general admission reqs taken care of (hopefully!). Good luck to yo...
  14. A&P 1

    Like you, I'm also doing the blocked schedule thing. I'm in Anatomy (ours are split) from 8a-noon30 one day a week. That includes lab time and lecture. I still have to know everything everyone else learns, but I have very limited time with my instruc...
  15. I know how you feel. I'm 27 and although I'm not really concerned with my age, it has of course crossed my mind where I could be and how much time I've wasted. I went in to register for classes for Jan, stopped by the bookstore to order my books, and...
