    Biology Spring 2010

    Ooh, one more thing, I'd urge you to make your own cards rather than buying ready made ones. Writing down the information the way you want to digest it is better for your brain. Also, what you put on...

    Biology Spring 2010

    I am a true believer in this study method, KyGreen. Let us know how it works for you, and I would say "good luck" but luck has nothing to do with it, it's all just work, work,

    Biology Spring 2010

    3x5 cards. Write "Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum" (or whatever) on one side, on the other write: "RER; Ribosomes; protein synthesis, etc." Or whatever you need to know about the item or topic. Note: try...

    Those dreaded fractions....

    You're right of course. It's a useful skill to develop as well since it's the same sort of math you have to do to balance chemical equations in

    Those dreaded fractions....

    The easiest way to deal with fractions is by factoring them into whole

    Just one of the girls??

    IMO, women are far more "dirty-minded" than men. Ever watch women at a nude male revue? They scream and grope and leer...it's freaky. Men at a strip bar behave quite differently, there's a certain...

    So all I need to have my package together for application to the BSN program at Davenport is one more recommendation. I asked my Biology instructor for it. I got an A in his class last semester and...

    Thanks bro, I appreciate that, it's just got me looped a bit...this is a small school, there are 62 seats available for the BSN program with likely about 250 applicants anticipated. As an older guy,...

    Is Regular Biology a Pre-Req for A&P?

    AGREED!

    Biology Spring 2010

    Most likely. I saw your other post too. If your school doesn't require it, I wouldn't worry about it at all...You don't absolutely need it for A&P, but I found it helpful. How much that has to do...

    Is Regular Biology a Pre-Req for A&P?

    As others have said, it depends on your school. I found it helpful for A&P because it provided a deeper understanding of things like metabolism and homeostasis as functions not only of systems or...

    What's the toughest part of A&PI?

    RE: Anatomy proper: What has helped me with the nomenclature has been a grounding in the western literary tradition. A decent foundation in Greek and Latin have gone a LOOOONG way toward making these...

    Biology Spring 2010

    The title of the class I took was "Foundations of Cellular Biology" it was introductory in the sense that, at my school, it was a 110 level class, but it was certainly a step beyond the survey level....

    What's the toughest part of A&PI?

    Is it a meatus or a foramen? A condyle or a process? Maybe it's a

    Biology Spring 2010

    I took it in the fall, it was a very fun class, basically a moderately in depth cytology survey with a section on biochemistry and quite a significant period of time spent on ATP synthesis (which...

    talk to me about your algebra class

    First of all, Mike, Your advice here is excellent. Getting over math-anxiety a preparation are the whole battle. It's funny, my Algebra instructor said the same thing you are saying here, Statistics,...

    talk to me about your algebra class

    Taking Intermediate Algebra currently. Our instructor permits open notes and book for exams, but he does something odd with homework: he assigns between 25-40 questions per session, and we just keep...

    Scheduled for the TEAS!!!

    Ladyoj, Isn't that odd though? I have noticed it too. It seems to me that the people who do this, who won't help or offer insight are people who lack confidence in their own abilities and/or who are...

    where/what to apply for?

    From what I've seen, in a very competitive job market, a BSN can make the difference. People who say otherwise are usually people who don't have one. In addition, I believe that in most markets,...

    TEAS MATH

    Well, I am one of those weirdos who like math. It does not come naturally to me, it's a slog and I make plenty of mistakes but here's what I have to offer in the way of advice: 1.Don't be afraid of...
