  1. A&P II Club, 2007

    goldenngrrl replied to CuriousMe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    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...

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

    goldenngrrl replied to gkbroaro's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    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...

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

    goldenngrrl replied to gkbroaro's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    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....

  4. Am I crazy to do this?

    goldenngrrl replied to picturestoburn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    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...

  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...

  7. help! impossible class, kinda long

    goldenngrrl replied to jackson145's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    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...

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

    goldenngrrl replied to Kensington's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    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...

  9. Need help with preparing for Anatomy tests

    goldenngrrl posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    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...

  10. Question regarding class curves

    goldenngrrl replied to peacelovestar's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    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...

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

    goldenngrrl replied to Kensington's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    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...

  12. How many sciences should I take at once?

    goldenngrrl replied to FutureRN1908's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    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...

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

  15. Let's talk GPA

    goldenngrrl replied to rn2bein08's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    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....

  16. What is your program's curriculum?

    goldenngrrl posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm curious to see what other schools' curriculums are for freshman Nursing majors. I know that my friend who is currently a student at West Virginia University didn't really focus on as many of the...

  17. What is your program's curriculum?

    goldenngrrl replied to goldenngrrl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It's interesting to see how different some schools are. I don't start clinicals until my second semester of sophomore year. Thanks for

  18. Do employers care about grades?

    goldenngrrl posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This may be a silly question, but I've been wondering: in applying for a Nursing job, do employers really care about what grades you got in college? I'm curious because in talking to many of the...

  22. 75% on first pharmacology exam

    goldenngrrl replied to SA2BDOCTOR's topic in General Students

    Wow, I thought my school was tough! In the Nursing program (after pre-reqs) you have to score a 75 or higher on all tests. If you don't, you have one chance to re-take the test. If you re-take it and...

  23. Binder or notebooks?

    goldenngrrl replied to Pixiesmom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have always been anti-binder until I got to A&P. I used to hate carrying them around and I preferred my notebooks much more, but once I got to A&P there were just too many notes and handouts...

  24. I Need Help Really Bad!!!!!

    goldenngrrl replied to **new!!'s topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't have much advice, but I wanted to let you know that you're not the only one so don't feel like you're alone! I failed my first Biochem test last week with a whopping 55 (the class average was...

  25. How do you keep from burning out?

    goldenngrrl replied to arabmagic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I feel ya! I wouldn't say I'm feeling disinterested, but I'm feeling very overwhelmed at all of the work that Nursing school entails. It's my first semester of college ever, I'm living away from home...
