1. A&P II Club, 2007

   goldenngrrl replied to CuriousMe's topic in Pre-Nursing

   So....is anyone about to pull their hair out because their Professors are trying to squeeze in a million things before the semester ends?? I have two weeks of classes left (currently have 3 lectures and 2 labs left) and I still have a lab quiz (tomor...

2. PRE.NURSING REQUIREMENTS @ a UNIVERSITY vs. COMMUNITY COLLEGE

   goldenngrrl replied to gkbroaro's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I defintely agree that it really depends on the community college in question, but I still believe that my school's sciences are harder than the community colleges in our area, at least. I've heard that from numerous students who've transferred into ...

3. PRE.NURSING REQUIREMENTS @ a UNIVERSITY vs. COMMUNITY COLLEGE

   goldenngrrl replied to gkbroaro's topic in Pre-Nursing

   My university is pretty rigorous (not just in the Nursing program, either -- all-around academically.) For Nursing, the only science course we're allowed to take at another college is Microbiology. A&P 1 & 2, and Biochemistry (along with all ...

4. Am I crazy to do this?

   goldenngrrl replied to picturestoburn's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Good God, don't do that to yourself! I am taking A&P1 and Biochemistry right now (along with Nursing 110 [which is a Psychology class basically], and another gen. ed. class that my school requires) and am at my wits end. I am barely passing Bioc...

5. On the verge of Failing

   goldenngrrl replied to PurrRN's topic in General Students

   I also know how you feel -- I am on the verge of failing one of my classes, and am barely passing the other with a C-. I hope that I will be able to pull it together, but often I am just so overwhelmed that I sit and cry about the fact that I am not ...

   The website is Getbodysmart.com Good luck!

7. help! impossible class, kinda long

   goldenngrrl replied to jackson145's topic in Pre-Nursing

   If it were me, I'd give it one more test if possible and then see where to go from there. If you don't do well on it, then I'd drop. It's not worth it to try to stick it out if you know for sure that you're not going to get the C you need. Also, have...

8. Human Anatomy / A&P I Club for Fall 2007

   goldenngrrl replied to Kensington's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Oh man...I definitely am getting frustrated in A&P. Like the poster above, I feel like I am not getting the grades I deserve for the amount of work I'm putting in. I studied so much for my practical and put in a ton of effort and time well before...

9. Need help with preparing for Anatomy tests

   goldenngrrl posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

   I am taking Anatomy I right now and am struggling in the course. Our teacher allows us to drop one test grade because he knows that this class is usually a shock to the system of many of us coming right out of high school. (We have 4 tests.) Anyway, ...

10. Question regarding class curves

    goldenngrrl replied to peacelovestar's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Our test grades in my Anatomy class are curved as well. The average raw score for our first test was a 34, and the average curved score was a 77. I ended up getting a 70 with the curve. So in reality, I actually got around the high 20s without the c...

11. Human Anatomy / A&P I Club for Fall 2007

    goldenngrrl replied to Kensington's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Good luck!! Don't be discouraged -- I got a 70 on my first lecture test and we had another one yesterday that I think I did worse on I really did study more this time, but apparently I still haven't quite figure out what approach to studying works f...

12. How many sciences should I take at once?

    goldenngrrl replied to FutureRN1908's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Personally, I wouldn't take more than two sciences at once. I'm taking Biochemistry and Anatomy & Physiology right now (both 4 credit courses) and I'm about at my wits end. I definitely couldn't handle any more than I have right now. It really de...

13. I set the curve on my Chem test!!!

    goldenngrrl replied to LanaBanana's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Pretty much what she said! ^ Congrats!!

    goldenngrrl replied to happydays352's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Aww, don't be too hard on yourself. We all have those days. Put it behind you and focus on the next one -- you will do great! Awesome job on the bone test -- that's something to be proud of! :balloons:

15. Let's talk GPA

    goldenngrrl replied to rn2bein08's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Once you're in the Nursing program at my school, you have to maintain at least a 2.0 GPA, but you need certain grades in your courses. For A&P you need a C+, for Biochem you need a C I think, etc. To be accepted into the Nursing program from a di...
