  1. A&P class problems - need opinion

    baldee replied to GodivaGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You will still rise to the top. Its like our 50 fill in blank, up to 2 letters mispelled, practicals. Its hard but you learn anyway (but yes, it takes 4X longer to study for). Point blank, ask the...

  2. A&P Midterm Grades

    baldee replied to 2bJoshRN9788's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well its apples and oranges for everyone with different schools and instructors. I've got a good instructor that knows how to lay it on us good, but sequences subjects/assignments/quizzes/exams to...

  3. Math

    baldee replied to IaCountryGirl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just remember, math never changes no matter who your instructor is. Of course use the methods they teach, so you can get all the extra credit possible, as well as get the best of your learning...

  5. A&P 1 class too easy?

    baldee replied to rukia's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Don't sell your Instructor short. You will know what they are teaching better NOW, by not being overwhelmed by things you will take later in more detail any way. So it may be SLIGHTLY easier later,...

  6. GA BON no longer accepting Excelsior education; Speak up Cont. Updates!!

    baldee replied to zimsaint's topic in Excelsior College

    A primary rule in statistics is rules usually remain the same and do not change. Therefore, by the forces that be ($$$$$), plan on what is today, since it is more probably the result of tomorrow....

  7. I passed the TEAS!

    baldee replied to craziechiq's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I thought you were escorted out of the country? Wherever you are, Welcome

  8. GA BON no longer accepting Excelsior education; Speak up Cont. Updates!!

    baldee replied to zimsaint's topic in Excelsior College

    AHA! Like FL, I bet if you find out which states are deleting Excelsior; they will ALSO be the same ones who are starting their OWN DISTANCE LEARNING programs in-state! If so, FAT CHANCE in getting...

  9. GA BON no longer accepting Excelsior education; Speak up Cont. Updates!!

    baldee replied to zimsaint's topic in Excelsior College

    Wow, GA is the Heart of the South too. Kind of puts a damper on this alternative. It will just be hard to move and get RN experience, or at least an inconvenience. There are State schools doing this...

    Greetings, I'm looking for 2 yrs or more financing For ADN or BSN degree: - 50 yrs old, - 2 undergrad and 2 grad degrees (which makes me a softmore), - living on a $10/hr job in depressed Central...

  11. Can the teacher fail all of us???

    baldee replied to WantAccel.BSN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Our branch of 3 CC locations has a real low 1st time pass on RN test, so they really clamped down on requirements this Fall. Actually, the low first time pass rate was due to our location 'informally'...

  12. Anyone know about transferring Excelsior credits?

    baldee replied to WestTXnurse's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Go to Distant Learning section. They are mostly, all the regulars anyway, are grads from there. I don't think so. They take most credits but don't transfer to state schools from my understanding. I...

  13. Can the teacher fail all of us???

    baldee replied to WantAccel.BSN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yep, She can and will. However, just one C per class is all she needs to justify her efforts. My first Calculus class, I was the only C. Everyone else, D or below. However, two students retook the...

  14. Got a 100 on my first A&P Lab Exam !!!

    baldee replied to Lady_Vol's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Keep your eyes open, for A-Team

  15. Did my dream just die?

    baldee replied to DaughterofRuth's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Nothing is a show stopper: just another tricky day. Just give yourself several plans of attack to accomplish it. You're a young whipper snapper! My 86 year old step dad had one knee done at a time,...

  16. Is being a CNA better than an lpn

    baldee replied to digestthis's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Who's wipin' all the hineys? RN's? That can't be true except in isolated locations. Hospitals did it to themselves by lobbying Congress not to be required to pay OT for CNA's, and now they got...

  17. Ugh, feeling overwhelmed need some job advice please!

    baldee replied to samsam22's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Don't sweat it! From what I can observe, the average CNA works about a few weeks before they leave. Just give 2 weeks notice, and that is all that is expected from any professional. Yeah, most places...

  18. A&P I How's it going??

    baldee replied to Adams_Mommy_07's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would suggest talking with your instructor rather than web-ghosts. Drop date for audit has passed, but drop date has not. Keep all your options open, and remember that there is no 'one-way' to do...

  19. A&P I How's it going??

    baldee replied to Adams_Mommy_07's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Excellent so far, but that could change since things coming pretty quick now. Auditing Biology, a 'suggested' pre-req for pre-nursing program REALLY helped though. Good teacher before and now, and my...

  20. Do you need a Laptop?

    baldee replied to dfw2lax's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    OK, here goes my assumed pc purchase methodology and main reasons: http://www.powernotebooks.com/configure.php?special=499 Site above has 3 main models of different frame submodels and has been a high...

  21. Anyone got a good Epithelial Tissue websight w/ 1/4 to 1/2 page pitctures to print?

    baldee posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm looking to know the main tissure type examples of each of the main locations (or similar constructions anyway), and study them until I will recognize them at a glance (so I can concentrate on my...

  22. Anyone got a good Epithelial Tissue websight w/ 1/4 to 1/2 page pitctures to print?

    baldee replied to baldee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I haven't had time to look over in detail, but from what I did see, "(Nuclear Reactor Owner in "The Simpsons") Excellent!"

  23. Male nurse crying!!!

    baldee replied to ClassQ1's topic in Men in Nursing

    Maslow's Hierarchy of needs is something like: 1. Physiological needs 2. Safety and Security 3. Social needs to belong and be loved 4. Self esteem to be recognized 5. Self actualization (nirvana of...

  24. Do you need a Laptop?

    baldee replied to dfw2lax's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    In class I agree. Its overnight while I'm working or away from home utilizing my time best. So far, I've got enough to do with 38 lbs of 1 book, 2 notebooks w/handouts, and a book bag. BUT there will...
