    I took Microbiology and A&P II with a few friends this summer. We all were glad that we took Micro and not happy that we took A&P II. Perhaps it would have been better had a good professor...

  19. Why do people try to discourage you? :(

    Start your classes. Once you receive A's and see that you have the respect of your professors, your confidence will soar. I'd suggest taking classes at the school at first to ease into it and develop...
