  1. Micro, Chemistry, and AP I (two in one semester)

    awhitt001 replied to nnicolee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I actually took AP I and Micro at the same time. I didn't find it to be too difficult. The first couple of weeks were actually almost identical (cell structure and general biology). Although Micro...

    awhitt001 replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Students

    I had one for Microbiology -- Which is not used to describe bacteria?.... and the correct answer was ..... wait for it........ TASTE ................. :barf01: You could tell how far along on...

  3. Any info on hospitals that will pay my school bill?

    awhitt001 replied to iwillact's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    RLPORTEE -- I'm sorry to hear of your situation and hope that you ARE able to find a program that works for you. Again, try your state's Board of Nursing website. Also try looking on your state's...

  4. Any info on hospitals that will pay my school bill?

    awhitt001 replied to iwillact's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    RLPORTEE -- What you said in your original post did not offend me. What I said was that it was difficult to believe and I explained why. To be clear, I'm not saying that you lied in your post either....

  5. Taking A & P 1 this Fall

    awhitt001 replied to littlebitark's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'd second just about everything above and add a couple more.... 1) Get your book(s) as soon as possible and start reading. You won't know everything when you get to class the first day, but having...

  6. Taking a poll ... MCC or Baker???

    awhitt001 replied to Dream2011's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I agree with John20. I'm currently at Baker finishing pre-req's -- received my AAS there and I like the school. But when it comes to applications for the Nursing program, I'm submitting app's to...

  8. How Do You Feel About Nursing Schools Still Milking the "Nursing Shortage" Lie?

    awhitt001 replied to Mezcalero's topic in First Year After Licensure

    A couple of things to think about..... 1) If you simply look at the predictable increase in patients due to the aging "baby boomer" generation, the projections for nurses over the next 5-10 years is...

  9. Will it matter that I have a non-nursing B.S.?

    awhitt001 replied to maggie24's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Maggie -- I saw that you mentioned that your Anatomy grade will be 5 years old once you graduate, but have you looked into a school that has a "nursing as a second career" program? For instance, the...

  10. How well do Bakers credits transfer??

    awhitt001 replied to cgallagher's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I'm a Baker student finishing up my pre-reqs to apply in Fall 09 for the Spring 10 term. (I already have a AAS from Baker as well, so I've been in school a while ) Because the competition is so...

  11. Financial aid question.

    awhitt001 replied to gemberly's topic in Michigan Nursing

    I too am in this situation and will be submitting my appeal in a couple of weeks. I'm not expecting any problems, but if I do have them, I'll be up a creek From what the financial aid advisor told...

  14. Would You Prefer a Male Nurse?

    awhitt001 replied to djc1981's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I'm just the opposite. After two separate HORRIBLE experiences with male GYNs, I will never agree to a male GYN again. I even refused a male OB and made quite a scene when they tried to send one in...

  15. Can someone help me, Please?

    awhitt001 replied to rach78's topic in Post Graduate Students

  16. Community college courses easier than University?

    awhitt001 replied to Ms. Nurse Assistant's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It probably also depends on the state. I'm in Michigan, and have only attended a private college, so can not attest to the teaching styles of CC -vs- U profs,. I am applying to multiple schools for...

  17. Reading alot of posts discussing "A" nursing students vs "C" nursing students

    awhitt001 replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Students

    Yep, sounds like yours is the same as mine. A "B" is a 3.0 here

  18. Reading alot of posts discussing "A" nursing students vs "C" nursing students

    awhitt001 replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Students

    At my school, the lowest grade that you can have in pre-reqs, as well as ALL nursing classes and clinicals is a B- (2.7 -- the bar is set high here). If you need to take a pre-req over, you can only...

  19. Is it suicide to take Micro and A&P2 together over the summer

    awhitt001 replied to %63theend's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think for you to get appropriate feedback, you're going to need to divulge your school so you can solicit input from students where you're attending. However if this helps, I attend an accellerated...

  21. Anyone from Baker College? Say hello!!!

    awhitt001 replied to hpygrl01's topic in Michigan Nursing

    MRSRLG.... Thanks for the encouragement. I'm going have to work on reminding myself to just do the best I can or I'll drive myself nuts. You've got good advise.
