I'm so proud I'm about to explode! I just finished my very first semester of college....and I got straight As!!!! 4.0! I know it's only a small step towards becoming a nurse, but it's the first one! I graduated high school over 10 years ago, so starting college was a scary thought. I'm so proud I did it! And my children and husband make a wonderful cheerleading section! From what I've read on this site, I need to keep that 4.0 to better my chances of getting into a good nursing school! I'll try my hardest!Just had to share my joy!

BeesAngel 31 Posts May 10, 2005 I just finished this semester with a 4.0 as well. I took Nutrition, Microbiology and Anatomy & Physiology I Lab. I work full time during the day so I am extra proud. Last semester I only took the Anatomy & Physiology I lecture to see how it was going to go with with working full time and I got an A. So two semesters in a row! Hopefully I can keep it up as this summer I am taking Anatomy & Physiology II lab & lecture! Congrats to everyone who did so well!

Fun2, BSN, RN 5,586 Posts Specializes in Operating Room. May 11, 2005 Congrats...it's a great feeling to know you can do so well, isn't it!?!?!??!?!?I took A&P I by itself at first, and with setting the curves with all A's test grades I decided to add a Dev. Psych telecourse with it. I really only planned on making a B in the Psych class because I knew I had to maintain my A in A&P.I actually managed to make an A in both classes! It really is a great feeling! (I graduated high school in 1991....14 years ago. I have been in and out off college, but didn't do so well my first semester right out of high school. ... A - B - B - D -D) Determination, and maturity goes a long way!!!!! (although some may beg to differ about the maturity part! :rotfl: )
