  2. Discouraged: Is EVERY public USA nursing program impacted?

    YES Jule this discourages me the most! I'm an A/B student, but not a straight A one. I work 2 jobs, one full time, one part time on top of taking a full load of courses (5 classes this semester) so...

  7. Anatomy flash cards

    I did a combination of making my own flash cards and I also bought the Grey's Anatomy brand flash cards from Barnes and Nobles. The textbook we use seperates the body parts systematically, like skin...
  8. How many schools are you applying to?

    I haven't decided 100% yet, but I think I am only applying to 2, 1 ADN program and 1 BSN program. There are 5 BSN programs around me but the only problem is the requirements aren't the same accross...
  9. Hey guys! I feel like if anyone could see where I'm coming from it would be you guys! I feel like I am going to be a student forever! My frustrations may come from the fact that I am taking 14 credits...
  10. Anybody ever take A&P 1&2 TOGETHER?

    I think it's doable. A & P 2 was actually easier for me. It was just more in depth information of everything we learned in A & P 1. You may have to study ahead in 1 to fully understand 2, but...
  11. Jobs while in school?

    Right now I work at a corporate job M-F 8-5, which works with most pre-reqs and my boss is good at working with me if I need to alter my schedule for school. But once nursing school is here I'll have...

    I could have written your same post, minus the testing part! I am getting ready to apply in January for fall. This semester I am finishing up all non nursing courses for both ADN and BSN programs, so...
  13. Freaking out about Anatomy dissection...

    I am actually retaking A & P 1 because I didn't feel like I got as good a class as others. Everyone else was dissecting cats and stuff and all we did was look at a slide of blood. No models,...

  15. Heads Up - UT Houston

    I had a question about the NET exam. Does UT offer it at their campus to take it or do I have to find somewhere to take it at? I saw it on the website that it is now required, but can't find any...
  16. Prereqs at a Community College

    I have taken all my pre-reqs at the community college too. I started out at a big university with a totally different major and I can say that I actually prefer the CC. The one science class I took at...
  17. When to apply for nursing school?

    Most BSN programs around here let you apply for the program after you have completed 40 credit hours, but must have the full 60 completed (general ed and nursing pre-reqs) before actually starting the...
  18. When do the pre classes END!!!!!

    I definately feel the pain here! I started college Fall 2002, got sick and took 2003 off to recover and figure out life, got my MA in 2004, then started back on the path of nursing 2005! Boy has it...
  19. Has anyone heard of this?

    For the school I am applying to they accept different classes from different schools. Like at my school I need Chem 1413, at the other two community colleges they want Chem 1411. Now my school has a...
  20. Anyone waiting on Fall 2007 acceptance?

    That's pretty cool the two tier thing! I wish our school had something like that. I've been just waiting to apply! This fall I am taking the last of my required courses for BSN. I have all the...
  21. Anyone waiting on Fall 2007 acceptance?

    I will be in January! All the schools around here have application deadlines between mid-January-April for Fall 2007. So you had to apply and wait an entire year before actually starting the program?...

    I am still in the corporate world currently (in school) and last week we had random drug testing across the board. Every single last employee was lined up and tested, and if a family emergency came up...

    I just took those over the summer in the 5 week course and did fine! It's not easy but totally doable. I ended up with an A in A & P II and a B in microbiology. I was on pace to get an A in micro...
  24. taking notes with online classes

    I don't think I've taken any notes for my online classes (taken 10 online courses now with 4 more in the fall) Most of the instructors already have notes on there and you just study off those however...
  25. Anyone Ever take Micro with Physio before?

    It definately can be done. I took A & P II & Micro over summer in the 5 week course both with labs. I studied more in that 5 weeks than my entire life, but I did it and managed an A in A &...
