St Mary's is a wonderful school. I graduated from there in 2001.
Don't think that you have to read everything that is in your syllabus because it is not possible. Do you have your pre reqs from Marshall out of the way? That is one way to make school easier for you.

Just pay attention in class as much as possible. Some of the teachers have there notes typed and hand them out which makes it much easier. I won't say that it isn't hard but I didn't study much and got by.

Congratulations and good luck!! If you have any specific questions you can email me.

I have a suggestion for you. Both BSC 250 and nutrition are very hard!! You might want to take one of them preferably Microbiology BSC 250 this summer before you start St Mary's classes in the fall. There were girls that did both but they also were carrying D averages. The classes that you will be taking at St. Mary's along with clinicals and care plans will keep you hopping. I suggest you take one of the Marshall courses this summer and one next summer. That is what I did. I took BSC 250 the summer before St. Mary's started and then I took Psych 311 the next summer. There is no way I could have done them all at the same time.

And always remember C = RN As long as you make C's you pass!!!

Good Luck!!! You can always email with any questions you may have.
