A&P I Spring 2007 Semster - Welcome!

Count me too....I am taking A&P I and Developmental Psy (this one online). That is the only way for me to take an additional class with A&P, only if second class is online. I found to be much easier to get a good grade in competitive school. At BMCC we need all A's to get into program. Good luck....

Hey, anyone at TJC in Tyler, Texas? I may be looking for a study/information partner.

Somehow I feel this is going to be harder at 34. lol.....

Hello everyone, I too am enrolled in A&P I this semester along with Chemistry and Med. Terminology. I attended a junior college 20 years ago and am fortunate to have some of the prereq's out of the way, but am very nervous/excited about being back in the classroom.

I'm starting all of this at 40 (41 on 6Jan) and look forward to getting through this process with all of you.

I will be taking A&P I next semester when I come back from Christmas break for the Spring 2007 semester. I didn't know if someone was going to start a group or not, so I thought I would create a thread to find those of us who have been "getting our feet wet" and are going to start into the fun stuff during the Spring 2007 semester. I look forward to seeing who all will be feeling my pain!

Hi my name is Kim! I am taking A&P this semester and I am anxious, but nervous.

Hi! I'm very nervous and excited to finally starting A & P I. I have prior degrees in business (BBA and MBA) which means I am pretty much starting from scratch with science courses. There is not an accelerated program at my area, so I'm taking pre-reqs at a local community school and then hope to get in at a 2 year BSN program. I'm also taking Chem 1 and Nutrition this semester so I will have my hands full. I really admire some of you with small children and those that work during this process. I'm 46 and have a daughter in college, a son in 6th grade and aging parents that I try and help with and that is about more than I can handle.

I am scared about A & P. I signed up for the hardest teacher though because I've heard she really prepares you for nuring school. I hope I didn't make a mistake. I start Jan 8 and already have my books but it is very intimidating to look through.

Hi everyone I am taking A&P I this January as well. I also have a very hard teacher and it is great to find a site where I can get some support.

I'm 51 so you don't have to worry about age being a factor. I work and just finished A&P I. Basically, I found for myself and most of the students who attended with me is, you get out what you put in. This isn't a course where you study when you feel like it. For me I found you need to stay on top of your studying and try not to get behind. Hope this helps. Cheers

school starts in one week and my book is still on back order. mind you I ordered it back in november! what the eff. I am one of those obsessive students who gets the book early and goes all through it but now Im worried that it wont be here by the first day of school.

p.s. I ordered it the first day you were allowed too.

My book store is LAME

Hey everyone, looking for anyone taking A&P 2401 at TJC. Preferably M & W class from 5:35-6:50. Looks like MS. Schmid is the teacher finally assigned. Looking for anyone who will be ready to study. Thanks.

Hi again everyone. I just purchased my books today and I swear they weight 25 lbs. So, I am curious. What is everyone dissecting? In my school we dissect cats. I personally would rather dissect cadavers than cats. I often prefer cats to humans. Also, is anyone in this group going to school in the Seattle area?

Happy New Year to all!!

I too purchased my books today. We have 2 cadavers (male and female) and will also be disecting cats and a sheep brain. Ewww. I am excited about the class though. :)

Hi everyone! I got my books today and am all set, just waiting for class to start next week! I am very excited but nervous at the same time (like most of us).
