    PreRN Katie replied to PreRN Katie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Our lecture class went from about 200 students to approximately 80-90. They're dropping like flies! On our last test, the average was a 62.5%. So far I still have an A

    PreRN Katie replied to PreRN Katie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have my second lab practical tonight and I'm freaking out!!! I finally just decided to focus mainly on muscle names & actions b/c that makes up 75% of the muscle part of the test...I just...

    PreRN Katie replied to PreRN Katie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Oh my Lord, I HATE muscles. I have been trying to learn the origins, insertions, and actions for eons and just when I think I have it down, I confuse myself and feel like I'm starting all over again....

  12. A&P 1 Spring 08

    PreRN Katie replied to PreRN Katie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congrats on your awesome grades!!! I am in the same boat as you with muscles...the easiest way I've found to understand them is to try and memorize the names and body location but not the...

  13. Dumb question on pronunciation...

    PreRN Katie posted a topic in General Nursing

    I have already scoured the discussion boards here for an answer but to no avail...how the heck to you pronounce the name of the nurse licensing exam (NCLEX)?!?!? Is it pronounced "en-klex" or do you...

  15. PSYCHOLOGY and SOCIOLOGY

    PreRN Katie replied to baxter80's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You can totally handle both of those at the same time! They're cheespuff classes compared with the likes of A&P and Chem and the other nursing-type classes you have to take . Good

  16. I was a victim of sexual assault.

    PreRN Katie replied to wildmountainchild's topic in General Nursing

  18. Summer Session - A&P I or Chemistry

    PreRN Katie replied to Fallon's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would say take Chem over the summer rather than A&P I. I'm in A&P I now and I love it, but it's definitely the hardest class I've ever taken just based on the sheer volume of material. I'll...

  19. Clayton State vs Mercer

    PreRN Katie replied to rtb611's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Sorry that this is a little off-topic...I'm applying to GA Baptist for Fall 09 and if you don't mind me asking, what kind of gpa do you have in your prereqs? I'm not sure what they realistically...

    I'm signed up to take A&P II and Microbio this summer. Both are 8 week courses and I would be taking Micro + lab Mondays/Wednesdays from 2pm - 7pm and A&P + lab Tuesdays/Thursdays from 5pm -...

  23. A&P 1 Spring 08

    PreRN Katie replied to PreRN Katie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Alright, who's good with the nervous system? This whole "potentials" thing has got me baffled...I understand that they're signals, and that graded potentials are for short distances and degrade, and...

  24. A&P II and Microbio at the same time...need advice please!

    PreRN Katie replied to PreRN Katie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    From what I understand, it's not necessarily suicide, but it is very very very hard. I know from taking it right now that A&P 1 is very study intensive, and I'm sure A&P 2 and Micro are the...
