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.!
just wanted to give you guys a heads up, i buy a lot of "one-edition-old" textbooks to save cash, but ***** said the nursing fundamentals book actually has some new chapters in the latest edition. so don't buy the old one!

Buck up! Its gonna be ok! Whats the worst that could happen? They can't fire you! So what if they are mad? It sucks you can't give notice, but I understand your reasons. Hopefully they can be happy for you if not, foggeddaboutit!
Ha, they were like, "we'll work something out so you can stay" etc etc but I don't think I can because they want 40 hours and the school wants 26 not including study.
Working 65 hours a week is hard enough now.
So how will we know who's who tomorrow?
I'm the 5'10" lightskinned black guy so if you see me, holla!
Um, not sure what I am wearing yet, but I will probably be carrying a black shoulder tote bag with light blue sides. One side says Keystone Symposia and has some trees on it, the other side is black.
Well, I'm bringing that big bag because it will have my nursing fundamentals book in it that I need to return to the senior who sold it to me, its an old edition and the new edition is (for once) substantially different.
Bring your checkbook for superstore! My friend is running it and she says this is the cheapest place you'll find anywhere for your supplies b/c they bought in BULK.
I have a lot of supplies already...I have a Littman stethescope, a sphygmomonometer, the pocket thingy with the penlight, bandage scissors, etc. Guess I'll need to see what else they require.
I did see this really cool clipboard one time that had a calculator up on the top and med notes on the board part. Very cool.
