I start A&P in the fall and I was curious about how many hours you typically spent studying and what grade you got. I know everyone is different but I am just wanting the average. Thanks.

Well said Windmill!!!

I agree that it does feel that way especially when talking to people in my classes. I was going for nursing, however, in the last few months I have changed my major to respiratory therapy.

I would definitely think so.

I read on this forum before that there used to be a RT to RN program but it no longer exists.

I bought mine at allhearts.com

Not to sound mean but if you have tried almost all of our ideas INCLUDING the audio ones (itunes, reading your own notes, etc.) then a different teacher might not help either.

I will once again suggest recording yourself going over the notes and then playing it back. I know it sucks but it also sounds like you are making a lot of excuses.

I wanted to add that if you learn by listening then you should record yourself reading your notes and then play it back. Like others have said, it sucks that you have a terrible teacher but you are in charge of your education. Good luck with the de...

I also white out pages and make photo copies. Repetition seems to be the only thing that works for me.

I wouldn't do it unless you have no other time commitments. I am currently taking A&P, Micro, and College Algebra. I have no free time. However, I also have kids and other time commitments.

I am looking for a great student planner for the upcoming semester. I would like one that I can use to keep my school life straight and hopefully my home life too. I have 4 kids so I would like to keep all of my info in one place. I looked on Amaz...

I am not a nurse but a CNA. We start get our residents up at 6:00 when our shift begins. Breakfast is served at 8:00.

Thanks for answering my question. I am currently a CNA in a ltc facility. Not exactly in love with my job and one of the home health agencies here is hiring. However, I didn't think I could apply since I have not taken the home health aide class.

I went back to school after being a sahm for 6 years. I took one class (online) while pregnant to ease myself back into school (spring 07). That wasn't too bad except I was so sleepy. I took off the fall 07 semester because he was born in Sept. I ...

Can you do home care without being a home health aide?

It sounds like you have a good plan in place. The only thing I would recommend as a fellow mother of four is that the semester that you have the baby don't take any classes. I had my youngest while going to school and I am so glad that I took off t...

I currently work per diem on the weekends. I am only required to work one weekend a month (Saturday and Sunday).

I think it will. It can be tough finding a job as a new CNA and I think it would be even harder finding one when you haven't worked as one and finished class months ago. That's just my opinion. Good luck!

I took the Kansas test last month. There are six different ones that you can be given. It wasn't bad. Make sure you know about the bladder and bowels other than that it was a lot of the same things you probably covered on class tests.

I was hired on at my clinical site on the last day of class and started as soon as I got my test results. However, it is 30 minutes from my house. I have been trying to find a job closer to my house but haven't had any luck yet.

Here you are only allowed to take it twice. Not sure about which score they take though.

I found out I passed today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yay for our time being close!!!!!! This fall I am taking... A&P Micro College Algebra Spring.... Bioethics Statistics Pharmacology Patho I am so excited (and nervous) that I am so close to applying.

Hi everyone! I applied for a CNA position last week at a facility I would love to work at. I was going to call to follow up on my application but their website says to correspond through email. So I was thinking I would just send an email instead,...
