   This is my last week of a 4 week summer Micro course. I've gotten an A on each of our tests so far but I still have the final exam to go. I'm so glad there's a light at the end of this tunnel & it's not a train :chuckle.

   I passing my lab with an A so far but I am so very bad in the lecture so I am going to take the lecture part over since I am not satisfied with my grade. Can anyone from MA refer a more microbiology class lecture to me or even a online school?

   So stoked, just finished--I needed 45% on the final for an A and I killed that test...very interesting and relevant course I must add.

   micro in 6 weeks = hella easier than doing it for 16 weeks (would be hella boring I would assume and a drag). I loved how fast it goes.

   Finished 8 week Micro with an A...huge sigh of relief! I feel a little sad, though, because what could have been and should have been an interesting class turned into a nightmare. I started out thinking our little drill sargeant teacher was just trying to give us a taste of nursing school boot camp and ended up thinking she had some major personal issues and needs some kind of help. I don't mind a teacher presenting challenging material and setting high standards for a class, I do want to get my money's worth for my classes, just hope the N program instructors aren't all somewhat unbalanced.

   I am taking my class at Montgomery County Community College. So far so good. I have had three test and I have a low A high B in the class and I am now past mid-point.
   
   The labs are excellent. We are actually doing things and looking at stuff under the microscope. I am definitely a handwasher but I have not been to concerned about getting anything as we work in an aseptic atmospher. Three weeks left then A&P II and then I am done with my pre-reqs!

   Hi piglet 68,
   
   I plan to take microbiolgy this upcoming summer at MC. Who was your professor?
