Thanks bushrn75 for the inputs. I still have two questions (select all that apply), that I could not answer. Did you get the same questions the second time?

Do we have to write assignment # 3 as a letter of intent to specific graduate school? For example, address it to Ohio University MSN program. Or we do not have to mention any specific graduate school?

FYI:

I believe for this paper, we have to follow the APA format requirements and put the running head. There is a grading rubric attached to the assignment; the APA format title page worth 3 points and the overall formatting is 5 points.

11/20 points is just for the APA format and reference!!!!

I took 451 ( same as 4510) in the spring, and the letter to grad school was just that. a letter. I didn't do any APA formatting (no in text citations or references and no Running Head).

This one actually called for apa style with a title page reference page and an in text citation! I included all of that just to be sure. Hopefully they won't take points off for doing too much!

Thanks cincinursemary, this assignment is modified from what you had; it states that at least one in text citation and reference is a must. It was NOT clear if we should write it as a letter to a school or as an essay. Unfortunately, I did not open it early to be able to communicate with the instructor and it is due today at 08:59 pm (Pacific time). I spent most of my time trying to understand APA format.

I just looked at week 2. Guys I don't think I can do this. It took me hours and hours just to complete week one assignments. Do you think this writing and referencing stuff will get easier? Am i making this more difficult than what it is?

I am now in my 7th nursing class at OU and doing APA has gotten easier. It is still a pain in the rear, just not as much of a pain.

Yes, I agree. the first course is intense, and overwhelming if you are not used to school. But it did get easier. I'm on my 4th course. You can do this. One step at a time.

I feel like such a whiner but this class is killing me. I'm so glad that I decided to only take one class and will continue to do so for the remainder of my days. I'm glad this board exists, I apparently need more support than I thought I would. Thanks ladies and gents

Can't say I'm mad at the fact they dropped that quiz. I wasn't happy with that score
