    Anne it said in our info packets that ACE passports will be explained to us at orientation. So as of right now, we're clueless, lol. I'm assuming it's clinical related though? When do we take the NET?...

  6. How difficult did you find pharmacology?

    QuarterLife88 replied to raydon's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have it right now. Six week course, two weeks left. 'A' so far, looking to keep it that way (I hope I did not just jinx myself lol), though there are only 175 total pts, so yeah...rough. The side...

  7. Powerpoint Overkill

    QuarterLife88 replied to TJMICHAEL's topic in General Students

    I had an A&P 1 instructor that read word for word off her slides for two hours. Her area was really biochemistry, not so much anatomy, so she truly gave us the bare minimum. I could have skipped...

  8. Somtimes I wonder -- "What the hell are you doing?"

    QuarterLife88 posted a topic in General Students

    Today was my first CPR class for the nursing program. I officially start classes in the Fall, though I do have Pharm right now. I'm doing great in Pharm, it's book learning, I'm good at that. I can...

  9. 2nd day of clinicals & I feel like an idiot...help me gain some confidence!

    QuarterLife88 replied to pecanpies's topic in General Students

    You sound like me. Great book learner, in your element in the classroom. Skills...freakout mode. You question whether or not you're barking up the wrong tree and perhaps maybe we shouldn't be in a...

  10. OCC - 2010 applicants / 2011 ADN prospective students

    QuarterLife88 replied to MsStephh_RN's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Nope. My class is usually Mon 9-1 but because of Memorial Day and an agreement by the whole class, my instructor found a spare classroom and moved our lecture to Tues this week so we wouldn't miss a...

    QuarterLife88 replied to MsStephh_RN's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Survived The NS test with a 92%. Heck yeah. She said it was the worst test we will take (or the test Pharm classes seem to do the worst on), and IA, because studying for it was a nightmare, and I was...

    QuarterLife88 replied to MsStephh_RN's topic in Michigan Nursing

    What are "AIMS?" There's nothing of that in my lecture notes or

  13. OCC - 2010 applicants / 2011 ADN prospective students

    QuarterLife88 replied to MsStephh_RN's topic in Michigan Nursing

    ^It really is. Cannot wait until Tues, so it can vacate my brain, lol. I've got it down pretty well now, so I'm really tired of studying or rather, "maintenence studying" so that it STAYS there until...

  14. ADN programs without waiting lists / 2 year BSN (non-accelerated) programs?

    QuarterLife88 replied to greatlakes's topic in Michigan Nursing

    OCC - Oakland Community College has no wait list, but the gpa cutoff requirement basically means you need a 4.0 to guarantee a spot. The cutoff for Fall 2011 students was 3.88 I believe. If you have...

    The Nervous System Drugs will be the death of me, and that's all I'm going to say.:uhoh21: I'm not religious, but someone out there, please pray for

  16. How did you celebrate your nursing school acceptance letter?

    QuarterLife88 replied to northmississippi's topic in General Students

    I ripped open my letter, and then told my mom. She has supported me throughout this entire journey so I felt it was appropriate that she be the first to know, even if that did mean waking her up from...

  17. OCC - 2010 applicants / 2011 ADN prospective students

    QuarterLife88 replied to MsStephh_RN's topic in Michigan Nursing

    Everything came from the lecture PP or out of her mouth. I'm not even going to read the book anymore (unless I don't get something/want extra info out of curiosity) because it wasted a lot of time,...

    QuarterLife88 replied to MsStephh_RN's topic in Michigan Nursing

  22. How hard is Chemistry if you are not good in math?

    QuarterLife88 replied to scootersuz's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Not doomed. Trust me, I suck at math, and I passed Chem with an A. I had a great teacher that cut out the crap, showed us dimensional analysis (best way to solve problems ever!) and I maintained an A...
