  1. Enrollment Counselor not responding

    I would email and double check that he has your phone number in the system correctly, and if he misses another scheduled meeting definitely call the school and ask to speak with the enrollment...
  2. Pre-Licensure BSN

    I can answer the pregnancy one! Because I'm now pregnant and will be withdrawing, just finishing up my first term at the end of December. I was told that with how our cohorts in the Dallas area are...
  3. Alternatives to WGU for ADN>BSN

    So, the course you're talking about lasts between two and four weeks (you get to choose your cohort and days and times that they have available, and there are a LOT of choices- some meet two times a...
  4. You literally cannot fail unless you don't pass a course before the end of your term? It's not that difficult to manage your time and reach out to instructors to help you pass these courses. And...
  5. Also please note: "WGU spokeswoman Joan Mitchell said Thursday that the report does not impose binding sanctions on the university. It's a recommendation from the Office of the Inspector General, who...
  6. RN Program Combined ALL Classes into One Class, HELP!

    I'm in the nursing prelicensure program at WGU and this is what they do too. Ours is set up with fundamentals as a class in the pre nursing term called intro to nursing, and then in the first...
  7. WGU Pre-Licensure- Dallas Summer 2017

    Hey y'all! How is your term going? Two months down! Where are you at in your degree plan? I was set back about two weeks in August from being sick with strep an tonsillitis that didn't respond to...
  8. U.K. Registered midwife in Tennessee.

    I'm not sure about TN or the specific area you are in but in Dallas, TX (where I'm located) and the surrounding area there are several groups where midwives and doulas work together and share clients....
  9. Accelerated Program. Is it worth it?

    If you're worried about the financial impact I wouldn't go with an accelerated program. It will be difficult to juggle family, work, and school unless you have family members that can take care of...
  10. Biochem online

    I'm taking WGU's biochemistry right now and it's really not that bad! It's a little dense but I've finished all but one module in two weeks with about 10 hours of study per week, have about 5 hours...
  11. OP, I totally understand what you're going through right now. If I had my way five years ago, I would be getting my MD right now. I really wanted to be a doctor when I was younger too. It seems...
  12. Best way to learn about cells

    Totally agree with drawing stuff. Even if you're not into drawing, if you're a kinetic and visual learner you'll remember what you draw a few times! Get some colored pencils and make a few cell...
  13. Best way to memorize anatomy and physiology terms

    I post this every time I see a question about how to study for AP... I learned the most from doing practice sheets over and over. You know those pictures with the blanks that you have to fill in the...
  14. Week 1 and already drowing

    You can definitely use a notebook and maybe just pull out the note pages but I found using loose leaf and a binder way easier to organize my notes into study packets (I used some of those binder...
  15. Week 1 and already drowing

    My easy memorization tip: If you have a blank practice form for labeling anatomical terms, copy it or put it in a page protector and write with a dry erase marker and practice the crap out of it this...
  16. Rapid. Progressive Glomerulonephritis and diagnostics for it

    Just found this on the Merck Manual. "Early renal biopsy is essential. The feature common to all types of RPGN is focal proliferation of glomerular epithelial cells, sometimes interspersed with...
  17. Wait, you already have a bachelor's AND a master's and you're considering a diploma program? Honestly, I think it would be a waste of time and money for you to do anything less than a BSN program....
  18. You should probably check your school's nursing course guide to see if they have any mention of your uniform in there. For example, my program requires white leather tennis shoes with no color on...
  19. HELP! Struggling on AP class

    If nursing programs are competitive in your area it will probably be worth retaking unless you can somehow salvage your grade with two quizzes and a final (if anything like mine, that's at most 150...
  20. Use khan academy videos as a reference for these classes. Really, really good explanations! They also have a section on their website with practice problems, which is super
  21. have you ever failed a science pre-req more than once?

    Well, kind of. I didn't fail A&P I. I got a C, which was too low to continue in the program I was in. (It was a req for my first Associates in health information management). I took it again...
  22. WGU Pre-Licensure- Dallas Summer 2017

    I think I'm farther ahead than I expected to be a week after starting lol. I finished all but three of the assignments for Professional Leadership (they're way easier and took less time than I...
  23. WGU Pre-Licensure- Dallas Summer 2017

    I'm sure most of you are able to access your courses already but Y'ALL I'M SO EXCITED FOR 00:00 SATURDAY WHEN I CAN FINALLY ACCESS
  24. Schools that you dont need a TEAS to get in

    Agreed with AppleJack. I think people get themselves so worked up over the fact that they have to take a test that they try to justify why it's wrong to make people take the test to show you have the...
  25. Didn't do to hot on my first exam.

    My advice for A&P will always be this: MAKE YOUR OWN STUDY GUIDES BEFORE EVERY EXAM- hopefully at least three days before the exam, but sometimes that's not possible. It takes more time but you...
