micro

Published

I am taking micro and English comp 1, along with working fulltime. i have been an LPN for 9 years and attempting to go back to school for RN. I am having a very hard time with micro- anyone know any good websites to study on or any other good tips to help me with this class? They have peer tutor at my college, but at 3-5pm every day and i work 3-11 and can't attend. Help- Please send me an email through my profile page or a private message (PM).

Specializes in med/surg, telemetry, IV therapy, mgmt.

here are the microbiology weblinks that i have. two of them may not be active as i had problems getting them to come up on my computer. however, i only have dial up service so that might be the problem.
