2. Just Found Out I Failed

   ckkala replied to Triple A's's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Keep going! Do not listen to your instructor, he is just weeding people out. You now know what more you need to do, how he tests etc. I am not done with A&P yet (3 more weeks ) and I have been up and down, pass one test, fail another, pass on...

3. A&P 1: The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club

   ckkala replied to Fun2's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Fun2Care I can see pros and cons to both ways of testing! :icon_hug: I do know that when I had an extra week to study due to influenza I only got 5 wrong on the test. I just think that A&P classes in general shove way too much stuff at you and e...

   ckkala posted a topic in Ob/Gyn

7. Going back to school after 12 years

   ckkala replied to Triple A's's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I graduated in 1991 and have three kids. I get to take the NLN tomorrow, yipee! Just kidding. I have the book and read it and did the practice tests. I didn't do very well and am discouraged. I started A&P in January and haven't touched it si...

8. Where do you study?

   ckkala replied to oregonrene's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I set up this area in my basement with a lamp, electric blanket etc, but rarely study down there. I prefer to be down there, but most of the time I start studying right after supper and my husband isn't home yet. I don't want to be downstairs with ...

11. Weekend Warrior - Pros/Cons

    ckkala posted a topic in General Nursing

    Right now I am a pre-nursing student and can already feel the stress. I was wondering if I changed jobs and worked as a CNA and only worked nights Friday, Saturday and Sunday if that would help with the time spent studying. I think if I did this it...

14. Who plans to Remain a LPN?

    ckkala replied to HannasMom's topic in LPN/LVN

    I am trying to not make that decision right now :chuckle With my family I know that clinic hours work the best and make me happiest. Heck, I will probably have to get a job as a medical assistant when I am done since LPN's are rarely used where I ...
