  1. Bodies, The Exhibit

    I saw the Bodies exhibit many years ago in Las Vegas - when it first came out. I wasn't into nursing at that time, but I found it fascinating. I noticed at the time that a lot of the bodies looked...
  2. Few questions

    I was able to go back when I took the test. For each section (e.g., math, science), you'll have a few "pages" of questions - however, if you submit the last page then you can't go back. Keep in mind...
  3. So Cal Community Colleges

    Can you retake any of your other pre-req's at a different school? Some schools allow you to retake more than 1 class and will just deduct a few points for attempts (if they use a point system). You...
  4. Advice on selling books online

    You can trade in your books, but you'll probably get more money if you sell them. I have some of my books up for sale on Amazon; however, I will NEVER buy from a "student" seller on Amazon (like...
  5. I think that most people, including myself, would agree that non-accredited schools are a complete waste of time and money. If I were you I'd just finish the pre-req's and start applying to BSN...
  6. Post your Fall 2013 grades!

    Thank you for the reply...I had a pretty good feeling that a lot of the people with perfect A's were not getting 96 or 97 and above. At my school, it is generally 95-96 for the A and it depends on...
  7. Post your Fall 2013 grades!

    I am curious...what is an A at the school you go to? Most of my classes require a 97/100 to get an A (it used to be 96 and even that was rough). I have mostly A's, some A-'s, and a couple B+'s. For...
  8. Student Loan help!!!

    That's awesome! I hope you'll be able to figure something out. If I find anything, I'll let you
  9. Student Loan help!!!

    Forgive my ignorance...but isn't Sallie Mae a private loan? I was under the impression that I couldn't go through them because of my credit not being so
  10. Student Loan help!!!

    Is that your tuition? Wow, you're lucky. My program is around $25-30k at a private 4-year. At least you won't be in debt for the rest of your life, lol! There's some good news in all of this after...
  11. Student Loan help!!!

    I think she was referring to all of the fees that go along with orientation. Tuition might go up, but that is usually covered by loans. For example, the cpr class, background checks, shots/titers,...
  12. Student Loan help!!!

    It is so depressing! We work so hard, and then stupid stuff like this gets in the way. I'm not giving up - there's got to be way. I'm still waiting for my acceptance/denial letter for Spring and...
  13. Student Loan help!!!

    Thank you for asking this question. I am in almost the exact same situation as you, except my start up fees will be over 3000 plus the health insurance. I have no idea what I'm going to do, and I...
  14. Can one skip lower Bio and successfully take Bio 201 (A/P)

    I took a general biology before A&P, but a lot of my classmates didn't. I think it helped me a little because a lot of stuff was repeated in A&P (cell structure & function, DNA,...
  15. A&P textbook in hardcover or loose leaf?

    I had the loose leaf for A&P and I would definitely do it again. The quality of my pages was the same as the bound text. A few pages got tears in the holes, but they are easy to fix with tape...
