    Has anyone got a mneumonic or two that would help me remember all the directional and regional terms plus body planes and sections? I'm heading into chapter 14 of Human Anatomy by Marieb and still...

  2. Does Your School Give Priority Registration to Certain People?

    Bo Shoi Ming replied to jpeters84's topic in General Students

    I disagree: Someone with one essential final nursing class to take could find the class full because someone with 3 sem hrs got the last open chair. The person with one class to go has shown they...

    Listen to Mozart while you are cramming the day before. When you start to get Anxious, with a capital A, think of Mozart melodies. It must work because when Einstein was having trouble formulating the...

  6. Does Your School Give Priority Registration to Certain People?

    Bo Shoi Ming replied to jpeters84's topic in General Students

    At Austin Community College the more hours you have the earlier you can register. Fine with me.

    In 2009 my health insurance will start coverage for hearing aids. I need one because of hearing damage in the Navy. For those wearing a hearing aid what works best with a stethoscope? Thanks,

  13. Suggested Study Habits

    Bo Shoi Ming posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    All sections of anatomy were full when I tried to register. I bought the book HUMAN ANATOMY by Marieb, Mallatt, and Wilhelm and have been studying it on my own. I'd appreciate any suggestions to get...

  14. Suggested Study Habits

    Bo Shoi Ming replied to Bo Shoi Ming's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    No it doesn't have the CD since it was a cheapie book. I'm about to start chapter 9 on joints. Thinking about trying a tutor to see if that helps--especially the orientation and directional terms....

  15. Too big a load?

    Bo Shoi Ming replied to kriszurcj's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The students I know at ACC say physiology and microbiology are both challenging and suggested I take pharmacology with one of them rather than Physiology and micro at the same time.

    You can't do it at Austin Community College because Anatomy is a pre-req for Physiology.

    Just think how thrilled and proud your parents will be when they see you graduate from nursing school. After all, they have the premium viewing seats. Do it for them and then set some time aside...

  20. Prerequisite Order A & P

    Bo Shoi Ming posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Would it be smarter to take Human Anatomy first and then Human Physiology the next semester or does the order really matter? Both are 4 sem hr classes and there are no pre-req for either class. The...

    Bo Shoi Ming replied to bayyinah's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Bo Shoi Ming replied to Dancinagain's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    See if you can find someplace to learn Yoga to relax just prior to a test. It really works and isn't too expensive especially at the YMCA. Lotsa professional athletes use it prior to a big game or...
