  1. Microbiology online

    mmt4 replied to fsv1024's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I know this question would be hard to answer considering most people take ONE micro course so they cannot compare, but I am wondering if it is definitely worth the expense to do it through OCC. I...

  2. My A&P Elephant

    mmt4 replied to keithjones's topic in General Students

    Mnemonics help a lot with some of the bones and there is also one for the cranial nerves. The mnemonics helped me a lot and they really do stick with

  3. so what is the best and worst advice u received as a nurse and/or student

    mmt4 replied to ErinDel's topic in General Nursing

    Excuse me for jumping in without advice - I don't have anything to contribute but Tait's comment made me smile because I worked as a waitress the first time in college and "getting in the weeds" was...

  4. I got into the bsn program

    mmt4 replied to nurse12b's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    :ancong!::dncgbby: What a great way to start off your weekend.

  5. studying for a&p before the semester even started

    mmt4 replied to jeanttb's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Its not a bad idea. I took an EMT-B class one semester (it was a regular, for-credit, college course that satisfied a Health Ed requirement) and the instructor dressed us down on the first day because...

  6. nursing program without waitlist

    mmt4 replied to sue19's topic in General Nursing

    I am pretty sure most of the nursing schools in Las Vegas, NV are merit-based as well. You make the cutoff or you

  7. Rio Salado vs. Clovis for A&P

    mmt4 replied to mmt4's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I can't edit so I am making a correction here - Clovis does offer Micro - the course must be full and not showing up on the online course lookup, but it is on the pdf schedule of classes. I stand...

  8. Rio Salado vs. Clovis for A&P

    mmt4 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just looking for opinions. I took A&P and Micro back in 1994 and 1995 and did well, but the classes are obviously old and even if I could find a school that took them, I need to get back the lost...

  9. Very Confused on Nursing Track!!

    mmt4 replied to Shucara SmartOne's topic in General Nursing

    I agree. That one semester where you are trying to live the "college life" may give you some bad habits. Maybe not but you never know. You are going to make friends with fellow students in nursing...

  10. Nursing School with no support from hubby and 4 kids...Can it be done?

    mmt4 replied to WanaBeeMe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I resemble this. My husband is in CSAR in the AF and potentially has 16 yrs to go before retirement (if he does the whole 30). I have 4 kids and he can be as supportive as possible but that still...

  11. Busy mother going for LPN in Fall 2009... any suggestion?

    mmt4 replied to Arianna_Marie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Arianna, my suggestion would be to find some sort of childcare situation where you could handle it even if you had no family or friends; that way if your husband can drop off the kids on the way to...

  12. I wish everyone would get it...let me study!!!

    mmt4 replied to Gen2Nurse's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Your husband is supportive, so I agree with the others - let him help be the buffer. Explain to him the difficulties you are having and ask him to help (and give specifics - if he is anything like my...

  13. How to work childcare into nursing student schedule

    mmt4 replied to mmt4's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Thank you! I will. Now just to get my hubby to actually put in for the assignment (its special duty and they have a number of open slots for it - he was told if he puts in for it he will get it - he...

  14. How to work childcare into nursing student schedule

    mmt4 posted a topic in Nevada Nursing

    I have a question for anyone who is or was a student in any of the nursing programs in Las Vegas (ANY- LPN, ADN, BSN, accelerated post bacc BSN...any of the schools). If you had to work childcare...

  15. How to work childcare into nursing student schedule

    mmt4 replied to mmt4's topic in Nevada Nursing

    Thanks. We won't be going til next summer and even then it would be at least another year before I apply to anything. My science classes were done in 1993-94 with As and A-s but they are too old...

  16. NEED ADVICE Lpn or Medical assistant?

    mmt4 replied to soladylike1's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    If I were you I'd still do the LPN program. Some medical offices will hire LPNs to MA positions, at the same or very similar pay (so expect lower than say LPN work in LTC), so you can always apply for...

  17. If you could not be a nurse

    mmt4 posted a topic in Nursing Career

    Hello. I have a question I hope at least a few of you don't mind answering. I'd really appreciate it. If you could not be a nurse, what would you do that still fulfills your interest in...

  18. CNA to boost chances for Nursing School??

    mmt4 replied to NewPath2Follow's topic in Nursing Career

    I think the CNA course is great idea. I am a former nursing student. I loved my classes, and did really well. I was pre-BSN in college and ended up switching majors and graduating with a health ed...

  19. Sonography question

    mmt4 replied to chelsCNA's topic in Nursing Career

    I don't know if this varies by state, but the community college near me offers a DMS (Diagnostic Medical Sonography) program which is direct-entry, no prior education (besides high school and the...

  20. If you could not be a nurse

    mmt4 replied to mmt4's topic in Nursing Career

    Thanks. You're right that law does not interest me but your comments are valued. I am casting a wide net so I can see what I am missing. I am hoping by asking people who may have enjoyed or been...
