    Micro and A&P 2...SUPER FAST

    CrunchyMama replied to ChicagoICU_RN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    We did muscles and bones in A&P1.....if you've already done it, the big thing in A&P2 (I'm doing 2 right now) is digestion. Digestion and metabolism is a biggy and metabolism has been hardest...

    I'M ****** OFF!!!!!!

    CrunchyMama replied to ccjus123's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've noticed this too regarding the schedule for fall semester. I'll be setting up my schedule for starting nursing this fall and like 95% of the professors aren't even listed yet. Kinda sucks because...

    im lost

    CrunchyMama replied to quesha06's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was a CNA and I'm starting the nursing program this fall. I would definitely go for RN. Better pay, more respect, more responsibility, better job (being a CNA, you do all the dirty work). Good luck...

    Are there clinicals the 1st semester of nursing school?

    CrunchyMama replied to JadenRN TO BE's topic in General Students

    I'll start nursing this fall and how my school works is the first 7 weeks is clinicals in the lab, then you have to pass a skills test. If not, you can retake it....if you fail that time, you're...

    microbiology or physiology harder?

    CrunchyMama replied to motherofgirls's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm taking A&P2 right now, I don't plan on taking micro until nursing 3, so I have awhile (I start the nursing program this fall). I'm scared to take it because it's all microscopes and I don't do...

    pros and cons -- clinical rotation site?

    CrunchyMama replied to miniangel729's topic in General Students

    I'd rather go to different clinical sites. I think it gives you a feel for different places, to know where you might want to work afterwards. Also, I don't think employers looks at where you did...

    Pre-Rec Questions

    CrunchyMama replied to JMMagana18's topic in General Students

    At my school....chemistry and basic math isn't part of the program but it's a prereq to take A&P and another math. So since they're not a part of the actual program, they didn't count towards my...

    CrunchyMama replied to carlarenee02's topic in General Students

    I know a girl that had a similar experience and she just dealt with it. She warned me about which professor it was so I don't pick her, lol. Anyway, I don't know what else to tell you, I don't think...

    Please help...How many classes should I take in the first semester of nursing school?

    CrunchyMama replied to youcandoit's topic in General Students

    My school requires the prereqs before you start the nursing program. So this fall I'll be only taking nursing 1 and nursing pharm. I vaguely remember english 1 and I don't think it was too bad... I...

    CrunchyMama replied to GCTMT's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Ok, let me tell you something... I did A&P1 last semester, I busted my butt and got a "C" on the 1st exam. I was disappointed but after discovering me and another person got a "C" and everyone...

    How far WOULD you and DID you travel for nursing school?

    CrunchyMama replied to teacher08's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow, that sucks! My schools (2 different campuses) are 15-20 mins from me. I can't imagine driving that
  18. CrunchyMama

    Would you take class over if you made a "C"?

    CrunchyMama replied to californiadreaming's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Don't give up! Last semester I had a "C" for midterm for A&P1 but my final grade was a "B".....so don't go by your midterm grade. Just keep studying like crazy and it's possible to do better the...

    Getting into a Nursing Program..?

    CrunchyMama replied to Mommy2two's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    At my school you have to finish all your prereqs and have a GPA of at least a 2.85 to get in. There's 140 seats and if they're filled then you get on a waiting list. It's scary! I'm still waiting for...

    CrunchyMama replied to Miwila's topic in New York Nursing

    I got certified in KY and moved back home to NY a couple years later and never had to take the test or anything over again. I just got a hold of the people that takes care of all that (I'm sorry I...

    SHould I go straight fo the RN degree or go for LPN frst?

    CrunchyMama replied to s81chubbs's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't know....but IMO I wouldn't waste the time going for LPN if RN is what you'd rather do. Good luck with whatever you
