  1. Need help with preparing for Anatomy tests

    catzy5 replied to goldenngrrl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Muscles are a hard unit! There is so much information. My best advise is read it and take notes before you even go into lecture, learn as much as you can on your own then go to lecture and just...

    catzy5 replied to kflynn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  7. MOMS: Do you think this is taking on too much?

    catzy5 replied to BreatheFree's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  19. A&P II and Microbio

    catzy5 replied to lvloverRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  25. Why don't they make ALL the requirements the same???

    catzy5 replied to luvmy3kids's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes it's similar in my area but I kind of like it that way, it gives everyone more oppurtunity, imo. For some the CNA experience will be why they choose that school, for others they might be taking...
