How hard would you say the Medical Terminology class was? I am starting it in a month and I am currently JUST doing gen eds until I start nursing in Spring 2011. Would you say the class is rather boring? Hard? I am very excited to start the class but...

Thanks for all your opinions. I feel SO much more confident to go into the class now then I had felt before. You guys give such great advice and are so helpful. Good luck with your nursing career and college career! You guys are amazing.

I am at a community college taking pre-reqs. I didn't pass the reading portion of the CPT (super hard, btw) so I have to take a reading class and take the CPT again. After I pass I will be put onto the nursing list for the program. I will start Nursi...

How long did it take you to get into nursing at your CC once you got on the list?

I am currently at a community college taking my pre-reqs also. This college only offers the ADN degree. When I apply after this spring semester, it will take probably a year to get in. But after I finish my ADN degree and become an RN, I want to tran...

I took it in highschool, not college yet. But the hardest part is having to know and REMEMBER everything you learn. Know all the bones in the body, all the muscles, know every system. I was fascinated by the class and absolutely loved learning about ...

This spring semester I am doing basically Gen Eds. I did a few already last summer and this fall. I will be taking these classes: Medical Terminology Sociology Marriage and Family College Experience Psychology Biology College Reading During the summe...

I am a Pre-Nursing student andI am absolutely excited to start my clinicals and nursing classes!! I have been reading my moms NCLEX-PN book and I get extremely excited to finish school and start working. My question is what area do you work in and wh...

I am not a nurse yet, nor have gotten into my nursing classes yet.. but I think Psychology would help A LOT because it helps you understand different cultures and how they do things. It teaches you that in some cultures- eye contact - is very importa...

I am starting my gen ed's in the spring, then starting nursing in the summer. I'm taking a nursing program at my community college, which is a good program!! Any advice? My mom graduated from Nursing 1 and 2 about 10 years ago so she gave me her book...

Thank you for your answer! That gives me a lot of insight on what I should be doing now. I have more Gen Eds in the spring.. and hopefully i'll be accepted in by next fall. Good chance. But I have a job now so I am not like studying my heart out on a...

I was wondering how hard/easy it was taking it. I am a18 and I am starting as a freshmen in college for nursing and my mom was a nurse so I know more than the average teenager. I would hang out at her work all the time and watch what she did and all ...

Well, i am reading the book to get to know HOW nurses have to make their decisions and to know the processes of doing some things.. i'm not memorizing things with the books, I am teaching myself the processes basically of certain areas. I can't wait ...

If you have any notes or anything to refer back on DO IT! Also, the NCLEX-pn is a great study guide.. it has practice questions and everything. Congrats and Good Luck!

Haha i've been warned! I think the applying knowledge wont be SO tough for me because I absolutely love anything and everything to do with the anatomy of our body and life and all of the diseases to come with it... The only think i'm worried about is...

Hello, I am starting full time in the fall. I'm not starting nursing 1 til the second quarter but I am taking bio-chemistry and anatomy first quarter. I am wondering how hard it is going to be to adjust to a nursing student life. I will be dorming on...

Thank you! I still plan on pursuing nursing. I just need to decide WHERE I want to do it. I don't know how it's gonna work but I will transfer somewhere else. If I apply at a college now will I be able to get in next fall, not this fall. I don't want...

I don't know how worth it, in my position, it is to wait. I had everything planned out. Me and my fiance can't go separate ways. I absolutely hate the city I live in and I am needing to get out. It's a dump. I am soo stressed. I can't wait a year or ...

I'm a little upset. I went to talk to my advisor today and she told me there is a YEARS waiting list to get into the nursing. I will be taking my pre reqs this school year and maybe starting next year but not 100% sure. I think this is a WASTE of my ...

Thanks. I guess I will have to see what works best for me when I start. I am already taking my biochem and composition class this summer. I have reports to write everyday but I absolutely love my biochem class. I've learned so much, high school hasn'...

Well... Affording it probably is the most stressful part. I got myself some grants which helps out alot. Fill out your FAFSA and financial aide will be given to you maybe. Just study your hardest and you will do good. Try not to think so much about a...
