1. How do you handle all the reading?

   girlswcurls replied to Elizabeth Renee's topic in General Students

   I haven't read ANYTHING yet (2nd semester student) and I HAVE an A in both clinical and THEORY. Depends on the instructor I guess. WE use ATI books to study from for our tests. We use course objectives to study from. Piece of cake. First semeste...

4. Doseage and Calculations can I do this????

   girlswcurls replied to girlswcurls's topic in Pre-Nursing

   So today was my first class... it was awful. We did 5 chapters in 3 hours. Our math book does not break down dimensional analysis at all and I am struggling with it already. So tempted to withdraw and take it in 15 weeks instead. Just can't seem t...

7. A&P1 in six weeks?

   girlswcurls replied to girlswcurls's topic in Pre-Nursing

   RN Sam... thanks for your feedback. My advisor seemed a bit hesitant when I registered for it, the nursing admin director also put pressure on me by saying "most students fail" if they take it in the summer. Really? If they fail... then why do the...

8. A&P1 in six weeks?

   girlswcurls posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

   I am in my thirties, applied to nursing school and got accepted as "pre-clinical" (basically meaning they are saving a seat for me in the FALL program) but it's contingent on the fact that I take A&P1 and get an A or B in the class. The only pr...

9. International Version?

   Getting ready to buy a book for A&P1. Contacted college bookstore and it will set me back close to $400 brand new with the workbook and media. I found an international (in English, but printed in CHINA) and it is almost HALF the price brand new...

10. Need some advice...AM I CRAZY????

    I am an older student (early thirties) and in preparation for clinical math which I will be taking this summer... I have purchased my book and taught myself pretty much all the doseage/conversions/calculations. I am using the formula method (the rat...

    girlswcurls posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

    I took A&P like 15 years ago when the internet was somewhat a "new" thing, and wondered what the best sites to use now are. I Will be retaking both A&P I and II over again in the summer, and wondered if anyone has any useful FREE websites t...
