I absolutely did not care for the chemistry course I had to take. It wasn't easy whatsoever, and the professor I had was kinda terrible. Anyway, I salvaged a C in that class, and plan on retaking it. My first exam was an 84, and then a 94 on the sec...

Lol, I have three W's thus far. Things happen, and I wouldn't beat myself up. I wouldn't think withdrawals would hurt your transcript, not with a 4.75 GPA. That's pretty good! Best of luck!
Anyone take the statistics course for prereqs? I finished an algebra course back in the spring semester with an A-. According to my algebra professor, she told me I would do good given my grades. Honestly though, I don't know about that. I've read a...

Things happen in life, but the college honestly doesn't care. It's sad to say, but they don't. Never mind you have children or work a full time job, you receive the traditional grade without any curve whatsoever. You know what I find odd, most coll...

No, there were only two tests. The only thing left is presentation. She has mentioned extra credit, but 10 points isn't going to bring my score up... I wouldn't think, not by much. I emailed her, but she hasn't got back to me yet. I'm not sure what ...

I'm preparing to take the TEAS. I just make an appointment with the college whenever I'm ready. I'm giving myself 4 - 6 months to study it. I have two books, and by the looks of it, it's not exactly hard, hard . . . but it's no breeze either. I'm wor...
This semester has been very tough on me, as I took an Eng course along with A&P, and also Sociology. The sociology class is easy all besides the exams!!! Participation activities - straight A's. However, the exams were very, very complicated to u...

Hi there, I didn't care for the Diet and Nutrition class I had online. The professor was bleh. She wanted us to work with the MyPlate website and it sucked. I hated that site. Fortunately, I didn't really need nutrition to get into the nursing progra...
Hi there, I'm studying for the TEAS test, and using two different books: McGraw Hill and Kaplan workbooks for preparation. It's a lot to get down. Are these books consistent with the actual TEAS test? Another question, is how do you KNOW exactly wha...

Hi there, My grades in A&P are so up and down! They're def. not linear! I've made everything from A's - yes! A few F's unfortunately. It's a tough class for all of us. There's nothing so simplex about it . . . AT ALL! Like you, I'm not sure what ...

Lol, I wouldn't worry about it. I was 36 when I started. No one guesses me 36 or 37 though, because I'm told I look younger (Oh believe me! I'm not boasting). I just feel fortunate to look younger than I am. It's not so uncommon for people to start ...
This class has been somewhat challenging for me. I thought the chemistry was a lot of recall, but this is two times that! What did you do to get straight A's and B's in this class? So far, I've scored mostly B's on my tests, and honestly I could kic...
Well, I got my first semester over, and I got an B in Bio, A in Alg and A in Eng. Actually, it surprised me I made a 99.0 on my Final Exam for my Algebra. . . I was thrilled. This Summer, I'm doing psychology and the diet & nutrition. I'm just s...

I'm in Chemistry Health, it's Chemistry 151. It's not the easiest subject to tackle IMO. It's a pretty difficult subject at times. I can tell you some of the things you'll be learning: metric system, conversions, moles, chemical equations, polyatomic...
