I took both A&P and Micro in the same semester. I got B's in both classes. I wouldn't recommend this unless you are very dedicated to your studies. During test time for each class I always felt like I studied for one class more than another. Now ...

Not only did we have to brush classmates teeth but we also feed classmates baby food, and gave each other bed baths (wearing tank tops and shorts) Our teacher wanted to let us having the feeling of being the pt and being totally dependent on someone ...

Here is what I do to fit in a little me time...I study pretty much all night long, but every hour I take a 15 min break. I check email, facebook and allnurses within those 15 min. So really if I study for 4 hours a night, I would take four 15 min bre...

Survived the 1st week of Nursing School --Yippie!!! Another Random thought or Two: For the sake of everything that is holy, WILL YOU PLEASE SHUT UP so that I can hear what the instructor is saying!!! She is probably making a point that will be on the...

Ok have any of you ever watched the comedian Jeff Dunham? Anyways he has a puppet named Achmed The Dead Terrorist, he is a skeleton. Ok we were watching him on comedy centeral one night and Achmed made a joke saying that he was having a bad time and ...

I am going into the LPN/RN bridge program this fall. We are also required to have a knee-length lab coat for our OB rotation. Some of us that are shorter don't look so professional in these but it is a requirement!

i need some help from my fellow nursing members. i am applying for a scholarship to help with nursing school and like most scholarships you must answer an essay question. i would just like everyone's on my essay that i wrote. don't be afraid to spea...

Thank you for your much needed . I was trying to put a more creative touch on it than just "oh I want to help others". I guess I was trying to relate the fact that my family took care of others and I wanted to do that also (wasn't doing a good job at...

In high school I career-shadowed a nurse. One of the first patients that she took care of had really bad lung cancer from smoking. I will never forget him. He starting to cough and it sounded like he was drowning. We went in there to help him and he ...

Hi My CNA class starts on June 8th. We go Monday - Thursday 8:00 a.m. -12:30 p.m. We end the class July 24th. So that is roughly 7 weeks. We also have 10 people in our class with 1 instructor. Good Luck to all!

If you can pass a pre-employment physical than your weight should not be an issue.

I don't think you are over reacting at all!! We were supposed to get ours the 3rd week of April, then our nursing division chairwoman resigned. So it wasn't until the 2 week of May that it came! But everyday I would wait and wait for the mail to get ...

:yeahthat: Is why I strive to be an A student. You never know when or where your grades in school could come back to haunt you. I have this thought also. What if I want to become more than a "plain jane" RN? Such as going into a specialty or getting ...

I think that you made your mind up already when you say "nursing isn't my passion" and that "I don't care anymore". Maybe you should take your instructors advise and try CNA.

I would take and use all the advice given to you! I just took A & P 1 this spring and for the first few chapters we discussed was chemistry and simple biology! I have been out of school for just the last 5 years and those chapters were a struggle...

The first question I can see arising from this is....Does the Weed in any way compromise your judgment making skills? Or how quickly you react to situations? I know that all school are different but we are subject to Random Drug Testing at any time. ...

Remember not ALL schools are the same...but I was not allowed a calculator of any kind on the PSB Exam when I took it in March. The math was really not that hard. There was A LOT of fraction-type questions. I just went through and did I the one that ...

I agree with the majority of the posts. How in the world did you pass English 101? That is a pretty general pre-req for anyone going into nursing school. Sometimes colleges offer English as a second language for little or no cost...it is considered a...

I am currently taking both A&P and Micro...I really don't think it helps you out in any way if you take A & P before hand. My micro class goes more into bacteria, viruses, protozoa we only looked at a human cell once in the very start of the ...

Just found out yesterday that I am accepted too! When you got accepted did anyone else feel like doing a little happy !

We did not have to do cats but we had to do PIGS!!!! I had the same thought as you I want to be working with humans...NOT Animals!!!

ok one more 203. You should be packing to leave for Spring Break in the morning and it is 10:00 p.m. and don't have one single thing done......yup I am addicted !!!!!!

201. You tell your husband about the gross stories you are reading about just because you know that he has a weak stomach and will get up and leave you alone...so you can finish reading the thread

200. You are in a lecture in class and are not quite getting what the heck she is talking about....and think oh well I will just look it up on allnurses later.....then starting thinking about the gross stories you were reading about last night and ca...

Hey, Are we in the same A and P class? Oh wait no, I have a classmate that has a PERSONAL STORY that they add to every part of the lecture....... I swear it takes us 3 classes to get through what it should take 1 class!!! Finally the instructor caugh...
