I know this question has been asked a zillion times before. I would like to know what would be the best way of tackling the required science courses. Chemistry, Microbiology, A&P I, and A&P II I have a feeling most of the replies will be som...

My plan is take a science + lab one day (M W F) another science + lab (T TH) with any luck that should break things up enough so that they don't become jumbled. If that’s not enough to drive someone to drink, I’ll be taking these additional course...
What about shadowing different nurses in different specialities to see what peaks your interest? I understand you have clinicals in specific areas, but (to me) it doesn't hurt to see how everything is done or what is involved in the speciality. Anoth...

I would go talk to a counselor and find out what you classes you will need to take. After that with the list of classes he/she gives you try to pick between 2 - 4 classes. I would suggest not mixing science courses, unless you can really handle it. I...
Not sure this will help but Landau (http://www.landau.com/) offers a 5 pocket male top as well as a few different styles of pants that may come in handy. You may just want to do a simple search on google to see some of what's being offered now.

I was just stating what HCC requires as per their 2006 - 2007 catalog. Even if I make A's for the remaining prerequisite courses for UTA's program. I will at best have between a 3.73 and a 3.82 GPA overall, and there is no telling if that will be ac...
I was afraid you guys would say something like that. Don't get me wrong, i've passed everything thus far but there is one class I think I should have done better in.
Well you said it yourself, there is no way of telling if you passed or failed based purely on a number of questions. I would suggest that you take the day and relax, you'll find out your results shortly. Best wishes.
This is somewhat off topic, but I thought since I am considering the ASN program at El Centro as well as the BSN program at UTA I would like to know your thoughts are about re-taking a course to improve your prerequisite GPA? OFF, OFF TOPIC: I am cu...

According to the 2006 - 2007 HCC catalog you must have the following: Math min: 75, Reading Comprehension: 70, Grammar: 75, A & P: 70, GPA min: 2.0 Passing TSI (BIOL-2401, ENGL-1301, PSYC-2301, RNSG-1301 with a "C" or better) and complete a phar...
Well after doing a little digging, the 2006 - 2007 catalog lists the ASN degree plan. Other than course number and course name changes I don't see any difference between the two. You would think that the school would try to maintain its website with...
Has the ADN program at ECC changed since its program page was last updated in April 2005? Have they added any additional courses required to obtain the ADN for instance CHEM-1405? I have been looking at the following page: http://www.elcentrocollege....
I hope you all the best. Breathe, it'll be posted before you know it. Until then just breathe, you made it this far, the last hurdle is the biggest and offers you the biggest reward.

I would agree. This is one reason I am looking forward to starting the BSN program at my local university. While I agree that a degree/certificate doesn’t make the individual a better candidate, it does show that the individual is willing to go furth...
Would this be any worse than taking Chemistry & Microbiology together? Any time you take two science courses during a single term you're asking for an arse whipping.

I would suggest having a sit down with the instructor and explain your issues. If this does not resolve your issues, I then suggest that you have a sit down with the department chair, but to be nice inform her/him of your intentions. You may also wan...
