   Does it get better? I've tried the lightweight, the classic SE II and the cardiac. ALL of them feel uncomfortable in my ears and feels like it's going to punch right through my ear drums. Anyone...

8. Waiting list - is it a guarantee to be put in the program?

   wannabe an rn replied to Mb92's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   There is only one program I know of that "guarantees" students on the wait list will start the program. Other than the fact that you're basically in a holding pattern on the wait list, many programs...

    wannabe an rn replied to live.love.laugh's topic in California Nursing

    Hi Optimism, Patho is completely self paced. Pharmacology is a bit more structured. The lectures are all posted online, and you read them at your convenience. The tests are timed and are multiple...

14. Anyone took Online Pathophysiology and Pharmacology at SBCC??

    wannabe an rn replied to live.love.laugh's topic in California Nursing

    I took both patho and pharmacology at SBCC. Taking them together should be fine, I don't recall being overwhelmed with work from either. Just FYI, the pharmacology class does not include any dosage...
