Congratulations! We have something in common. I haven't been to school in 15 years and I received a A in Anatomy/PhysiologyI and a B in English. I am taking three classes this summer. I hope I will continue to do well.

2 A's and a B...I really do wish I had paid more attention in high school...LOL

How did you all do?

Congratulations to us all.....keep it going!

I start my summer classes next week...can't wait! (my children think I have really gone off the deep end now)

Have a great summer, everyone :)

Christine, Congratulations!

I know two of my grades for this semester which are "A's" and will have to wait until grades are mailed out for the other two.

Keep up the great work!

I've been out of high school for 28 years, and just started my pre-req's this year...but so far have a 4.00 GPA (only two classes to date), but I think the old gal's still got it! Talked with the nursing advisor today, and verified I'll most likely be applying for the nursing program after completion of my pre-req's in December. Congrats to all who've struggled along so far this year to pursue our dreams. No summer break for me; I'm taking A & P 1, but we have a great teacher, so I think it will be a good class. Hope everyone else has a wonderful summer!

:chuckle how lovely to see this thread! congrats to you!!!!

i was out of high school for 12 years before going back for my ADN. had a beautiful gpa of 4.0 until i started my actual nursing classes. but nothing worse than a B so far, so i feel i'm doing okay.

our school runs on "quarters" instead of semesters and this OB quarter doesn't end until june 11. :rolleyes: it can't end soon enough for me either.

Hey "old lady"!

Congrats on your school work! I'm making C's, so I definitely wish I would've studied more! But a C nurse is still a nurse. :nurse:

I know I'm good at what I do, but I just can't seem to do well on tests..... And I'm a complete bomb when I try to study at home, so I've remedied that situation too..... I've begun to stand up for myself and not let my husband bully me into "not" studying. He had a bad habit of making me feel guilty for not spending time with him.

And I've been successful! I got my 1st "A" on a test this week! YIPEE!!!!!

Rena, I remember and liked the classes when they were still called quarters due to being shorter in length and could get an extra 4 courses in one year.

Welcome!
