  1. Spring '08 Grades!!!! Be Proud!!

    dev psych 2: a microbiology: a physiology: a ochem/biochem: a (i'm still shocked about this one, i thought the highest i would get was a b+) next stop: nursing
  2. anatomy and physiology together ?

    Although I was told that Physiology was much harder than Anatomy, I found it to be a breeze compared to Anatomy. But then again, I had a tough Anatomy professor who I felt prepared me well for...
  3. What Should I Do Now?????????????

    I don't know how your other grades are, but it sounds to me like you are going to have to repeat the Micro class if you want to get into a program that requires it. I'm not sure if there if an NS...
  4. Statistics

    I agree with the PP. It is time consuming and it can depend on the profressor. Having a small class helped, too. I took it last summer (6 weeks) and there were only 6 or 7 of us, allowing the...
  5. anatomy and physiology together ?

    I don't think it would be crazy, as long as both professors go through each system at the same time. My school does the same and if I had taken both at the same time, I may have been more confused...

  9. Define Nursing in 3 words

    I was in my school library one day and there was this guy and girl (quietly) arguing. The guy called me over and asked me to pronounce a word in his accounting textbook. I looked at it and told him...
  10. Does anyone think this class schedule is too hard?

    I just finished a semester of organic/biochem, Physiology, and Micro. It can be done. I try not to let other people discourage me by telling me a class is hard. Many people told me that Physiology was...
  11. CNA or medical assistant, or other?

    To help you decide why don't you call around (hospitals, doc offices, nursing homes) to find out which has an easier time of finding jobs after graduation. Also research which position will have a...
  12. How to deal with pt's sexual advances?

    I agree with everyone above. Tell this person what they already know, that it is inappropriate. Why should you be uncomfortable while a patient has his "fun"? Everytime it has happened to me, I let...
  13. My family can't believe nurses don't get breaks

    Maybe it depends on where you work. I recently asked a (Nurse) friend of mine if she gets to take her breaks, and she said yes. If they are short staffed, she may only get 30 minutes. If they are well...

  16. Will medical terminologly help with A&P

  19. Question... and please don't fight!

    Some of these same topics are dicussed by pre-nursing students on this site, including nursing school application status, pre-nursing GPA, the NET, HESI, etc... And there are also a few "money"...

    wow, NY Meth was one hospital that I was looking into when I graduated. Where did you find this info? In the paper. Can you include a

  22. How Tough are the CNA Courses in general?

    I didn't find the course to be difficult at all. I did find the skills portion to be nerve racking because you need to be good at the skill (esp. bed making) in order to pass the state exam. Take it...

    Short Term goal: graduate w/ BSN in two years. I want a family so any schooling after my BSN will have to wait. If I get into the NICU, I plan to eventually become an NNP. Otherwise, maybe a CRNA. Not...
