What is involved in this club....I am a forum virgin.:blushkiss Thanks!LOL! Welcome! 18! There is nothing really difficult involved in the "club"; it's just a place/common thread to ask questions and seek support/camaraderie when you need it. It's also a handy place to vent with people who are going through the same things as you are! It's also great that it's a sticky so it will never move from the top section of the board!I look forward to chatting with you more and helping each other out. I don't really have much of a clue about this course as of yet but one of my friends IRL took it and thought it was ok. 0 Likes

mdbarker Dec 28, 2005 The community college that I attend doesn't require us to take Micro Biology all we have to have is a Biology from high school. I've noticed on most thread everyone has to take this, so why not my school? I'm in Virginia i don't know if that makes a difference. Should I take it anyway just for heads up or not? 0 Likes
NurseHirzRN Specializes in MICU. Dec 28, 2005 My school requires micro biology for the nursing program and will accept biology from high school to be accepted into the program if it was in the past 5 years and a C or better grade was earned:wink2: 0 Likes

We are required to take Human Bio, Organic Chem, Inorganic Chem, A&P 1 and 2, and Micro. Can't be from high school or more than 5 yrs. old.I haven't taken Micro yet will do starting the 9th of Jan, so can't say if you should take it or not. I do however, cannot understand why your school doesn't require it. 0 Likes

Hope everyone is having a great time on thier break. Good luck with A&P II and micro. I have heard that the two of them together are killer. Depending on what else you have going on. I could have started my nursing classes this past fall, but was told I would set myself up to fall as I have 3 children and was working full time. 0 Likes
TRINI_RN Specializes in Labor and Delivery. Has 3 years experience. Dec 28, 2005 Hopefully I'll make it through. I only plan on doing work study part time and my hubby will be gone for about a year, so I think I'll have lots of time to study. If it becomes too overwhelming I'll drop Micro, I have a 4.0 as of now and I don't want to flub it up. My wish is to make it through the semester without loosing it:eek: 0 Likes
JazzyOneRN Dec 29, 2005 Hello. I will be taking Microbiology this upcoming Winter Semester. I am definetely in to joining the club. I am really nervous about this course. I took it 8 years ago and received a C now Im taking it over with the hopes of Getting an A. I start Jan 19th its a little later than normal becasue its a hybrid course. It involves meeting once a week for the lab sessions and the rest of the classroom time is done online. Wish me luck 0 Likes

mdbarker Dec 29, 2005 I checked with the school today and they don't offer medical microbiology, it's just regular micro so would the be ok to take and help with what i will need to know 0 Likes
RosesrReder, ASN, BSN, MSN, RN Has 18 years experience. Dec 30, 2005 MDbarker, I think it's the same thing. Is it geared for health professionals? (I am assuming it is). Our school doesn't call it Medical Micro either but it is for healthcare professionals. 0 Likes
