I got my acceptance letter to Emory over the holidays. I'm very excited about attending Fall 2006!
I have two pre-reqs left to complete and I'm a bit worried that I might be in a pickle. Here's the deal:
I've been re-taking some pre-reqs at Georgia Perimeter that were too old to qualify for the program. I retook A&P II last spring and Micro this past fall semester. For Emory, I need to take, according to their website, General Chemistry I and General Chemistry II (with an organic component). They had said at the open house that a nutrition class I had might qualify for the Chem II, but it looks like it didn't.
My first question to anyone who might know is: Does Survey of Chemistry II qualify for the "General Chemistry II (with an organic component)" requirement?
Supposing it does, I can register for Survey of Chemistry I at GPC for the spring semester. However, I don't think Survey of Chemistry II is offered in the summer at GPC, which leaves me in a bit of a bind. Anyone think they would let me take Chem I and II concurrently since I have 3 higher level sciences than Chem I and 3 higher level math classes than the pre-req for Chem I? Or, does anyone think I can take Survey of Chem I at GPC and then Survey of Chem II at GA State as a transient student in the summer? (The GPC and GA State Survey of Chem classes seem almost identical.)
Ok, enough rambling....just having a bit of a panic attack here. Thanks in advance for any advice/suggestions/etc.!
Me neither. I wear jeans, tee shirts, and tevas to work everyday! Time to get all "girly" again.
DONT WASTE YOUR TIME AT QUEST DIAGNOSTICS! I went for a drug test this morning at the 5555 Peachtree-Dunwoody location and they wouldn't take my sample (imagine that... someone doesn't want my pee...). They said they won't take drug tests for nursing schools, only for hospitals, and that they made that policy chage in August of 2005! There was even a sign on the wall to that effect, so I know she didn't just make it up. The lady at the desk said that was the policy for ALL Quest locations in the area. So, don't waste your time, go to LabCorp! I got to do the urination world tour today, since my Northside test had to be at Quest and my Emory test had to be at LabCorp. I had to give Quest the bare minimum, then try to hold the rest in while I found LabCorp so they could have the rest! Really funny now, but no so funny at the time that I was chugging water in the car so I could pee... then trying not to pee on myself!

LOL - hillarious - thanks for warning us, guess I'll be going to LabCorp, then!
I don't dress up for class, either...I hate dressing up...well, no, I don't HATE it, but I don't enjoy it on a regular, every day basis...oh, boy, who would've thought non-scrubs clothing would be on our school supply list...
I haven't taken it yet, I figured I oughtta finish taking A&P first! But here in about a week and a half that won't be an issue anymore! Woo hoo! No more night school! Hello 7am classes!

Wait a second...
You can be the test mule. You'll probably do better than the rest of us.
