  1. Pathophysiology Fall 2010

    Sand_Dollar replied to Sand_Dollar's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    CBsMommy I figured it was a mistake, but still appreciated the info, I'm taking Pharm in the Spring. I have started reading the patho text and I'm really enjoying it... I think it's a 'You know...

  2. Patho, Summer 2010

    Sand_Dollar replied to thatsthekeyRNC's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm taking mine online through ccconline. It's Bio 216, worth 4

  3. How many credits during the summer?

    Sand_Dollar replied to shesham's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took AP2 (w/lab), Micro (w/lab) and Gen Psych last summer; 11 credits in 10 weeks. My days were totally filled with school but my kids are teens and I don't work outside the home either. I don't...

  4. ccconline chemistry

    Sand_Dollar replied to stcutie's topic in General Students

    I sent it off to you, it's a PDF. When you get it, you may want to edit your above post and delete your email address. Nothing like harvesters coming along and spamming you to death! Good luck with...

  5. ccconline chemistry

    Sand_Dollar replied to stcutie's topic in General Students

    Did the kit not come with a CD? If it did, you can find the manual on the disc. If not, then send me an email and I will send them to you, they are just PDF files. No cost, of course.

  6. Pathophysiology Online

    Sand_Dollar replied to shadet541's topic in General Students

    I'm taking it through ccconline this fall, it's Bio

  7. UCD adding new prerequisite

    Sand_Dollar replied to Sart45's topic in Colorado Nursing

    I'm not really surprised. I have to take Biochem (along with 3 other classes), which has Gen Chem as a pre-req, for my UNC application. With the high amount of applicants, CU can easily add additional...

  8. Previous low gpa, straight A's now, my chances?

    Sand_Dollar replied to Rmedin19's topic in General Students

    It depends what the school looks at (I haven't looked at Regis or Metro myself). I applied to CU with my pre-req GPA at 4.0 and was turned down. It could have been because of my essay, but I think I...

  9. Patho, Summer 2010

    Sand_Dollar replied to thatsthekeyRNC's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Patho is a pre-req for the program I'll be applying to, but I'm not taking it until the fall. I've already started reading the text and I'm really enjoying it, it's pretty cool stuff! I'm keeping my...

  10. Online Classes Before Nursing School?

    Sand_Dollar replied to Donald11's topic in General Students

    I am in Colorado which is the home for ccconline, so I get instate tuition. Out of state is quite expensive (416.8/cr), but probably less than UofP!. Within CO the public community colleges and...

  11. Online Classes Before Nursing School?

    Sand_Dollar replied to Donald11's topic in General Students

    I just finished my A.S. entirely online which included my NS pre-reqs such as AP, Micro, Chem, etc. The Universities I have applied to have no problem with them being done online, but they were...

  12. How doable is A&P in summer school???

    Sand_Dollar replied to sonyah's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took AP2 (which I found somewhat harder than AP1) during the summer (along with Micro and general psych). By itself AP would have been fine, but with three classes I was booked solid. If you remain...

  13. Micro and A&P 2 together?

    Sand_Dollar replied to shesham's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took both of these classes together, along with general psych, online and during a 10wk summer semester. I got A's in all the classes, but I had absolutely NO life whatsoever. I would be up at 6am...

  14. Pathophysiology Fall 2010

    Sand_Dollar replied to Sand_Dollar's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Oh SHOOT! I posted it in the wrong forum. Mods, could you please move this to 'Nursing Student Assistance'? I knew I shouldn't have gotten out of bed this

  15. Online Microbiology course.....?

    Sand_Dollar replied to paulaking1978's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Cgolden - I'm in CO itself, but there have been MANY students from around the country, even from other countries. No proctored tests, so it really doesn't matter where you are (except for $, of...

  16. omg I'm really worried now

    Sand_Dollar replied to supaflyz's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Happy2learn is correct, it depends on your school. I had 3 semesters from University 20+ years ago in a totally unrelated program. The first BSN program I applied to calculated my previous poor GPA...

  17. PPCC advice

    Sand_Dollar replied to robynv's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Hi twhite, I replied to your other post, but to answer your question here, yes the lab kits are *essential* to your classes. The AP kit is filled with slides, consumable dissection specimens (the lens...

  18. Is there a book of general nursing case studies?

    Sand_Dollar replied to sully75's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I don't know of a book, but I subscribe to the email MedscapeCME that sends you weekly case studies. This weeks was on a 26 year old man with abdominal pain. Here is the link:...

  19. CU-Denver Nursing Program

    Sand_Dollar replied to Lindsey14's topic in Colorado Nursing

    I don't often stick my head into these but Lindsey14, that was snippy and uncalled for. Alippin was giving you some solid advice. Just because you are unsure of where to find a situation she...

  20. Did not get in the RN program!!!

    Sand_Dollar replied to lynnecole's topic in General Students

    lynnecole - I was denied by the first University l I applied to. I have a 4.0 in my pre-reqs and core classes but (I believe) it was my 20+ year old cumulative gpa that did me in. I'm not going to...

  21. Advice on class overload or just right 4 Fall 2010

    Sand_Dollar replied to Mintyfreshness23's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took AP2, Micro and Psych together during a summer semester and I got A's, my classes however were online. I haven't taken more than 2 sciences at once but it's doable. I just finished stats this...

  22. completely new to it all

    Sand_Dollar replied to Amylovesnursing's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    hi MommytoMommy&RN, First let me welcome you to allnurses! You sound similar to me when I started out. A little background on myself. I'm 42 and was a SAHM who home schooled my two children up...

  23. Online A&P-- does anyone accept it?

    Sand_Dollar replied to Anise1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took mine through ccconline and it is accepted to both University BSN programs I have looked in to. BTW, we dissected a heart, brain, eye and pig for our labs. I loved my classes this way, got A's...

  24. Chemistry online--good or bad idea?

    Sand_Dollar replied to DenRN71's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Yes, I used financial aid in my last few semesters. You just run everything through your home college like you normally would, it was quite painless. I'm taking biochem (chem102) this fall and it has...

  25. UNC - 2011 start

    Sand_Dollar replied to Sand_Dollar's topic in Colorado Nursing

    Mi Vida Loca, I never noticed a smell. I will definitely remember this when I visit the campus next time! I'm all registered for my fall classes. I'll be taking my CNA through FRCC's Westminster...
