  2. How long is a BLS class supossed to last

    Guess my class wasn't typical then. Only about half the class had ever done CPR before, but nobody was there for more than 3.5 hours, and most of that time was spent waiting to do the
  3. How long is a BLS class supossed to last

    I just came from my class, and I was there for 3 hours. Had I been closer to the front of the line for skills evaluation, it would have been shorter. Some people were only there for about 2
  4. Who's taking A&P II this summer? (2010)

  8. First day of nursing School *unleashed* post yours

    Well...if orientation counts, then my first day was today. It was long (8-4), and a lot of information was thrown at us! The major things I remember though are: - In order to pass, we need to have a...
  9. About to start NS...but unhappy with my school

    I may have gotten a C+ in A&P I, but I got a B in A&P II. And even if I had gotten an A in A&P I after withdrawing and retaking, my school would require this of me. At my school, there are...

  11. About to start NS...but unhappy with my school

    They don't know why I dropped. They just know that I did. And as I said...the prof was bad. She didn't teach, and got reprimanded by the school administration. That doesn't happen to good

    We don't get to choose when our classes are, or who our professors
  13. About to start NS...but unhappy with my school

  15. About to start NS...but unhappy with my school

    Excuse me for not liking feeling like I'm being looked down on. I do have a reason for withdrawing...and I'm not the only one! Almost 1/3 of the class withdrew, most of them for the same reason as me....
  16. About to start NS...but unhappy with my school

  17. About to start NS...but unhappy with my school

    I applied to NS straight from high school, and that's probably the biggest difference between my situation and most people on the boards. I'm sure getting into NS was much easier for me because I...
  18. About to start NS...but unhappy with my school

    That's exactly how I feel. I mean yes, I'm young, and this is only my second year in college...but I know what's best for me, and what I need to to to succeed. Staying in that A&P class would have...

  22. Why did you choose to go into nursing?

    I chose nursing for a variety of reasons. I've always known that I wanted to do something that involved helping people in one way or another. When I was younger (really young, maybe 5 or so), when...
  23. A & P 1 -- Fall 2010

    Our lab was done online using Anatomy&Physiology Revealed -- an virtual cadaver dissection. I really like the flexibility of an online class. I could read and study on my time rather than having...
  24. A & P 1 -- Fall 2010

    i'm one of those people who liked it better online...but i think a lot of that is that i had pretty awful professors when i took it in person. the first didn't teach, and the second was crazy and said...
