OK, I don't remember the thread name, but research/search for other threads that cover this because I've heard that it is only a "suggestion" at this point. Some schools are moving that direction, but...

I've heard the same thing, and being a mom (and all that entails) I'm sure will not make it much easier. I agree with you Elizabelle, if I blow this first test, it won't be the end of the world. I...

OK, how sad is this? I spent an hour last night going through all the nursing courses we have to take and figuring out what my schedule would probably look like over the next 2 years. Pretty lame,...

BTW, can you imagine having to take this class with pharmacology too. Wow, those poor students who didn't get a chance to take this by itself. I'm in awe of any one of them that makes it through this...

OK, I've finished chpt 16 now (except I want to type the chpt summary review like I did for chpt 15) and I'm hoping I can get chpt 17 & 18 in tomorrow. Gotta go pick up the kid now though. Won't...

OK, if you look at the announcements page on the patho page, I think she means for that to be the review. If in fact it is, then I don't know what I was waiting for as it really is a very inadequate...
