About Microbiology

Published

Hello, i'm new to this site, i'm currently a pre nursing student. I just finished A&P 2 with an A....it wasn't easy, and I had a horrible instructed....I wanted to know if anyone can tell me about microbiology. My other classmate scared me about microbiology, but if I want to become a nurse some day, I don't have a choice

I liked Micro a lot better than A&P. I took it twice because I was short of getting an A the first time since I missed a homework that I thought I completed online. :

But maybe some people are not a big fan of Micro because of their professor? The reason why I say this is because I just finished my 2nd class of this and I got a C. When I took it the first time I almost got an A. But I had a different professor this semester. Professors really make a difference. It was awful. You'd take a test thinking you did well and get a C (In many of my classmates' cases, they got Fs). Then when you ask the professor why was this or that question wrong she could not explain the reason why clearly. On top of that she would get offended. Even sometimes when students would ask a simple question during lecture because they were confused about something, she' rip them apart in front of the entire class and not answer the question clearly. AND THEN complain that the reason why we do not get As or Bs on the test is because we don't ask enough questions! So you'd have no idea how to study for the test. I was actually lucky that I passed the class at all. A good portion of my class just failed. This lady has some semesters where NO ONE would get an A at all. And I'm talking about a class of well over 100 students.

Despite that, Micro is still better than A&P in my opinion. I just liked it more. I think you'll be fine. Horrible professors like the one I just had are hopefully a rarity.
