    Starting to Stress

    Nurse SMS replied to SarahLovesNovember's topic in General Students

    I have not heard this news, at least not here in Texas. Just this weekend I ran into an MSN who I knew while my son was hospitalized and ill...she told me to call her right away when I am getting...

    Tissue advice needed.

    Nurse SMS replied to msdeannah's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Tissues are hard. Do they have the slides at your library? Also, as stated above, you can usually find pictures online, but that is deceptive somewhat, as they post the most "perfect" specimen they...

    want to redo all pre requisites. want a new start.

    Nurse SMS replied to moofia's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yup, if you fail to provide transcripts it is fraud and you can be kicked out, have your license and/or degree yanked etc. I would not do that if I were you. There are some schools that will let you...

    Confused...

    Nurse SMS replied to Uthemann's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Sooner or later you will have to move on from your friends (or they will move on from you). This is a time in life to start making decisions based on practicality and with an eye to the future rather...

    I am undecided......

    Nurse SMS replied to penguinforlife's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Try taking a Myers-Briggs personality test. Often the results come with answers about the generalized strengths and weaknesses of the different personality types. There are a lot of them "free"...

    Anatomy and Physiology II - Fall 2008

    Nurse SMS replied to AlishiaRN77's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Endocrine is going pretty easy for me, but mainly because my youngest had a brain tumor that had engulfed his pituitary gland and both had to be removed, so I have been soaked in the endocrine world...

    Am I crazy for taking A&P I &II, Microbiology, and Medical Terminoloy in 1 semester?

    Nurse SMS replied to princesasabia's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think that taking all of these classes together is going to be unwise. Its unlikely you will make the kinds of grades you want for a merit advancement and very likely you will burn out horribly. If...

    I am NERVOUS

    Nurse SMS replied to jamaicannurse2b's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Always be proactive. It won't hurt you to have those other classes. Work on them while you are waiting. A 120 person wait list is huge. Its definitely not a given you will get in. Take the other...

    A & P 1 at community colleges

    Nurse SMS replied to williams3929's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Sheep brain. Cow eye. Skinned a cat. And even MORE dissections in A&P II than in A&P I. You get over it because you have to. Its what is required to get through the course, which is what is...

    Should I take Anatomy and Physiology I Alone?

    Nurse SMS replied to americanbeauty's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I had Mike Trulson, but he only teaches in the summer. He was fantastic. I am taking Elaine Fanini now for A&P II and I have Shannon Mathis for lab. Both seem very good. Fanini is known to be...

    Should I take Anatomy and Physiology I Alone?

    Nurse SMS replied to americanbeauty's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    CCCC will not allow you to take microbiology and A&P II at the same time. A&P I and II are both prerequisites for micro. I would think if you have time to study and are organized you will be...

    Nurse SMS replied to irenefly99's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It is in our school. There are assignments,worksheets and questions in the lab that we have to either tear out or photocopy and turn in for a grade. Not having the book would mean not having

    Nurse SMS replied to OldShoesRock's topic in General Students

    The only way to stop gossip is to refuse to participate in it..this includes sharing it in any way, shape or form, even to the person being gossiped about. Hard lesson, but one that will serve you...

    Nurse SMS replied to TerpGal02's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
