This thread is dead! I am currently in the RN-BSN program. If anyone has any questions, I would be glad to answer them!

I did take stats and it was hard! I am not a math person at all and struggle with math anxiety. I didn't like the format of online learning for stats but it is what it is. I used the Khan Academy tutorials (they are what you learn from) and they were pretty helpful. I also had to use youtube on occasion. IMO, that is not how stats should be taught. My advice is ask questions often if you are struggling. You can utilize a tutor, too. If you have someone in your real life that understands stats then ask for help. I'm not saying any of this to scare you guys and I did get an A in the class...I just feel like it is a difficult format for learning this material. Good luck to you all!!!

hallo, I thought maybe you could help me with a class I am having a hard time with. I am currently taking family centered health promotion class and am having a hard time writing the paper on"review of literature" which is about the levels of health promotion. any tips?
I'm currently writing the same paper and having loads of fun..NOT! I don't know what is is about this paper, but it is a tough one. Did you research the library for your three levels of health promotion? I'm having a difficult time finding information on step #4. All I can say is keep reading and looking. I wish I could be of more help.

I am considering switching to GCU but can not find anyone who can tell me what weekly assignments there are like. My current program is around 3000 word paper per week with a quiz weekly and 2 discussions postings weekly with min of 500 words and references.
Hello,
There are two active links for GCU. :)

I'm curious where you are going now?
Papers start out at 750-1000 words and toward the end the student is up to 2000 word papers. There are no quizzes, just lots of papers, a group project, and a power point. We have the same with 2 DQ a week and one must respond to two people for 3 days for a total of 6 responses. One does need references and the DQ must be at least 2 paragraphs.
