  1. I am taking mine at Clovis Community College, just in case anyone wants one more
  2. A&P 1

    Zoowee! Is that out of your study guide or were they on the test? I am on a similar chapter in my course (we use Hole's and are on Chapter 3 - Cells - we go to ch 4 next, which is more Cells, so maybe...
  3. Not an OB nurse (I'm taking pre-reqs) but a veteran of 4 lady partsl deliveries (with one I had an epidural that worked on one side of my body but not the other). I cannot imagine resisting the urge...
  4. Taking A&P I Fall 2009?

    First unit was systems and cavities, meaning of the words A&P, history of A&P, negative/positive feedback, characteristics of life, basic stuff like that. Second unit is chemistry - bonds,...
  5. Taking A&P I Fall 2009?

    I used Marieb my first time around, 16 yrs ago. I have Hole's this time. I think the Marieb was very thorough - can't review Hole's yet as I have just finished ch 1, but I like it so
  6. Do you have a back up to Nursing?

    Kind of. I haven't yet decided on Nursing, so I am taking pre-reqs now, knowing that this (health sciences) is a general area of interest for me so they are relevant. Clinical Lab Sciences or...
  7. ABSN without BA/BS

    I have not. I have looked into it b/c we are 90% likely to be moving to Vegas next year. Its one of several nursing programs in the city so I don't know if it is cutthroat due to the other options. I...
  8. ABSN without BA/BS

    *shrug* about 22 calendar mos is standard if you do fall-spring- summer off - fall-spring. Technically, anything less is accelerated. Considering 4 mos or so is the standard semester length, a BSN...
  9. Yep. And I did not know at the time how fortunate my class was to have cadaver lab. I wanted to take the prosection course (where you actually do the cutting and tagging for the A&P class), and...
  10. ABSN without BA/BS

    UNLV has a primary BSN program that is accelerated - its still 4 semesters but you go straight through the summer. I believe its about 16-18 mos total. There may be other BSN programs out there that...
  11. Help--HUGE A& P Dilemma

    Funny you mention this. I am re-taking A&P this year. I cracked open my new text yesterday and in the first chapter there are cadaver photos demonstrating the different sections (eg. saggital,...
  12. Going Back To Housecalls

    What a great service. I would think this would give the HCP a more (not sure if this is the right way to say it) holistic view of the patient if primary care HCPs were to do more house
  13. Help--HUGE A& P Dilemma

    We had cadaver lab in my A&P class 15 yrs ago. The bodies were from people who agreed, prior to their death, to donate them to the university. The medical school, of course, got most of the...
  14. CMA to RN???

    Oh, OK I was confused thinking you were asking about a CMA program to teach at more depth. I think part of it is in nursing programs the techniques and skills are taught along with the rationales and...
  15. When I was in my LPN program the instructors told us to remember when observing a procedure to breathe and not lock our knees, and, if possible, stand by a wall in case we felt a little woozy. I...
  16. CMA to RN???

    My answer would be that the program that would teach to that depth is the ADN or
  17. Clovis Community College this fall

    Me! A&P1. I enrolled after they opened up more spots. I am hoping I won't absolutely need the text this first week, as I enrolled Thurs night and faxed my book order in on Fri morning. They...
  18. a couple website for A&P

    Thanks. I'm using Hole's 12th edition this fall so its good to hear they have additional help on the website. The internet was a baby when I went to school the first time. No one I knew had a computer...
  19. Taking A&P I Fall 2009?

    Joining this thread :yeah:as of last night. I squeaked in at the last minute after they opened up 25 more seats. Just checked the CC and the tuition and book charges are pending, so they got my...
  20. I am an AF wife and mom to 4 and wondering the same thing myself. The assignment mine is likely to get next year will have him traveling a lot, plus his hours are never regular anyway. I think the...
  21. AP2 before AP1?

    This is a two-part question! 1. AP2 before AP1? My A&P two-semester course is 15 yrs old. I believe I got an A or A- in it, and hopefully some of the knowledge is still in my brain somewhere. I...
  22. I agree- check with the school. Might I also suggest that if you don't have to retake the sciences that you pick up a textbook or some sort of reference to refresh your memory. Given the opportunity,...
  23. AP2 before AP1?

    Yeah I am definitely retaking them. I am just wondering if taking A&P 2 this semester and A&P 1 next term is a recipe for disaster or do-able, esp since I have been exposed to the information...
  24. UNM. It was a Health Ed 200-level six credit class - I took it in 94?. I just checked the schedule of classes and now its offered as an EMS Academy class only. My class was mostly comprised of...
  25. Having second thoughts....

    Yes! It will torture you! Believe me, I changed majors from BSN to BS in Health Ed years ago and for at least 5 years I have been doing the "what if" dance and trying to figure out if I should go...
