Hi All!

I peeked and didn't see a thread for those of us brave souls attempting micro this summer so I thought I would just start one! My class starts July 2nd, but I'm already getting a little freaked about it! ANYWHO! Good luck and let's all keep in touch!

I finished yesterday with a 102% yipee. I am definately burnt out! Congrats to everyone else who made it too

:balloons:Congrads that is awesome.

UPDATE!!! I got a 93% on my test last week! YIPPY! :balloons:Not much time to celebrate though... test 2 is in 4 days! YIKES!! :uhoh3:

Hi, I just completed Microbiology this spring. You will do just fine in it.

Congrats to all of us survivors of Micro!!!!! Personally, I didn't like the class at all- half my class is failing. I have my lecture final tonight- hopefully I get an A, but it's nice to know that since all my other test scores were good that I don't need it- just want it, so no major pressure here.

I feel so bad for those in my class that really do need it.

Anyway- again congrats to everyone who just finished & passed and best of luck to everyone else!!!!

I start Tuesday- T&H 6p-10:20p from now until July 27th.

My book was $237!!!!!!! I am not looking forward to this, I took bio last summer and got an A, and did A&P I & II got an A in both- but for some reason micro is frightening me. I am not good with a microscope- I can never get the darn thing focused right. Yes add me to the FT job and multiple kids list. So needless to say my summer does not involve a vacation this year.

Hey I know how you feel about the microscope. I'm in Micro and I was terrified of the microscope but all you need is for someone to show you a couple of times and you'll get it. It takes practice though. Good Luck

I have two more weeks. Uuuugh.... this is draining. The class started with 46 people, and we are down to 17. Everyone I have talked to, before this summer, said this class wasn't too bad, however, they had a different teacher.

There are so many people failing and dropping this summer! I'm convinced our teacher thinks she is teaching at MIT or something. I'd be happy to just get a B at this point.

Well I finished up this week and got a 96 on lab final and 94 in lecture final so I actually got an A in the class! So excited, its great to say I got an A in MICROBIOLOGY. At the beggining of the semester I was terrified just saying the word microbiology and now the crazy thing is that as burnt out as I am this was probably my favorite class that I have taken so far.

Good luck to those still plugging away!! I know have about a month until I start actual nursing program.:yeah:

:balloons:Congrads that is wonderful. My last day of class was 7-26-07. I so nervous still waiting for the unknown grade to see what my final average is going to be. As of right now i am two points away from a B so wish me luck all.

The results of the summer sessions of micro seem pretty mixed. I decided to hold off taking it until fall for a couple of reasons. First, the amount of material covered in any kind of science, especially Micro, is considerable. Not that I'm afraid of failing, I'm quite comfortable with my ability to study. I too am carrying a 4.0 GPA. It's more for the second reason. That would be retaining the information learned. 3 weeks to learn 3 1/2 months worth of material. There's just not enough time to soak it all in. Sure you may do well in tests, but how well will you apply that info when the time comes.

I'd perfer to take Com or Pych in the summer.

Good luck in all your future endeavors!

Do you know yet how you did?? I took A&PI this summer and I am taking Micro and A&PII this fall (along with Dev Psych and Sociology). I got an A in lab and a B in lecture. I also took Gen Psych this summer and got an A in that. Now I am on break until Aug 27.

Can't wait to see how you did.
