Hello, I am starting my first nursing class (4510) with OU 11/3. Who's starting with me?! I'm excited but, already feeling overwhelmed and classes haven't started. LOL! Would like to get a group together on here or FB...

I've completed all assignments for week one besides the personal statement. I'm working on it tonight. I am awful with writing papers-- so I'm taking my time with this first one. I feel that they will be graded more on APA format this time around.
Peah4714 4 Posts Has 2 years experience. Nov 5, 2014 Carlo_flash,Once you are accepted into the program you should receive an email from the nursing department giving you instructions. They informed me NURS 4510 needed to be completed before any other class and My DARS was completed right before class started.

applesxoranges, BSN, RN 2,242 Posts Specializes in ER. Nov 16, 2014 That's weird. I took the class back in March 2014 along with the physical assessment. Other people have told me on here that I needed to complete it first by itself but when I took it back then, it was a co-req which meant you needed to have it signed up in order to register for the physical assessment class. I've doubled up on a few so that way I can finish this December.Consider getting PERRLA. OU will give you free access to Microsoft Office 2013 and PERRLA works with that. The benefit too is that you will be able to use Microsoft One Drive too. PERRLA costs like fifty bucks and it is a life saver.
