  1. Chemistry Fall 2010

    justbee replied to SomedayIWillBe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I whined earlier in this thread about the Mastering Chemistry homework that has to be done each week. I guess I have to eat my words, the homework is definitely helping me, and is probably the reason...

  2. Micro Fall 2010

    justbee replied to mangopeach's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    We just had a test on the DNA/genetics chapter, control of microbial growth and parts of another chapter. I got a low B, which is better than I expected. I think this test will be curved since no...

  3. Chemistry Fall 2010

    justbee replied to SomedayIWillBe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just got my second test score today, an A! After getting a low C on the first test I am psyched that I got such a good grade. I studied a lot, there are no shortcuts for me in this class. I have...

  4. waiting on admission or rejection (oh my nerves!)

    justbee replied to scrubasaurus's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hey, I am also waiting, impatiently I might add. The application window is Sept. 1 to Sept. 30 and then about 6 weeks to receive a letter. Sometime in there, they will be requesting personal...

  5. Micro Fall 2010

    justbee replied to mangopeach's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Oh that stinks. I don't have lab reports in Micro, just quizzes thank goodness. Hang in there, you can do it. Best,

  6. Chemistry Fall 2010

    justbee replied to SomedayIWillBe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    How is everyone doing in lab? We turn in reports from a lab manual and I just got my first lab back today with an okay grade, but no feedback or anything marked wrong on the actual report. I thought...

  7. Volunteer Hospital Interview? What do I wear

    justbee replied to RunawayN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    When I volunteered, I followed the attire of the coordinator and other office workers at the hospital, which was business casual. I didn't wear a dress, but slacks and a dress shirt for the...

  8. Phi Theta Kappa - Haven't we all been invited?

    justbee replied to SDChargersGirl#31's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Hmmm, I am wondering the same thing. The only reason I might be interested is for scholarships, although one of my professors who I respect very much said I should join. I hope some of the other...

  9. Micro Fall 2010

    justbee replied to mangopeach's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    So how is Micro for everyone? We had our first test last week on Ch. 1-4 in the Tortora book. Chapter 5 is starting off pretty intense. So far, I am really enjoying the lab part, we've done gram...

  10. Chemistry Fall 2010

    justbee replied to SomedayIWillBe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hey DahliaDaisy, I hear you girl. That stupid introduction to the homework was making me want to tear my hair out. LovelyMama, did you say bonus points? I didn't get any stinking bonus...

  11. What is so hard about A&P 1?

    justbee replied to Miwila's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It depends. My A&P I class had more than 50% drop rate. Why? I think some, the people that showed for only one or two classes thought the professor was a jerk and indicated they would take it...

  12. Tips on getting volunteer experience

    justbee replied to leenak's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Sign up as a volunteer and ask for any assignments that would give you exposure to clinical areas. In my experience, if you are a student, they try to get you into an area that is relevant to the...

  13. First A&P 1 test tomorrow--any advice/tips?

    justbee replied to pixiesandpolkadots's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This website url http://www.pc.ctc.edu/hart/ has similar photomicrographs to the Atlas of the Human Body we used in our lab. These are the kinds of photos we had to identify along with knowing where...

  14. Index cards, how do you make them work for you

    justbee posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Another thread got me to thinking about using index cards for notes or to drill before a test. That thread mentioned studyshack.com where there are stacks made by users for different subjects. For...

  15. Chemistry Fall 2010

    justbee replied to SomedayIWillBe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am in my second week of chem class. So far, I really like the professor. However 25% of our grade is online homework. It supposedly corresponds to the problems in the book. It does, sort of....

  16. Index cards, how do you make them work for you

    justbee replied to justbee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow, those are all great ideas. I like the systematic way about the pile you know cold vs. the one where you need to go over the concept again. I tried to make handwritten cards back in A&P as I...

  17. Not a caregiver type, but considering nursing?

    justbee replied to wide-eyed's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with the suggestion to volunteer at a hospital to really see what goes on. I just recently did, and it verified that I was picking the right area for me. There are so many medical areas where...

  18. Some tips for Students (new or exp!)

    justbee replied to whitneyLOL's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for the tip about study shack. I completely agree about reading ahead, there's nothing worse than realizing that you've fallen behind and trying to play catch up right before a big test. Best,...

  19. Chemistry Fall 2010

    justbee replied to SomedayIWillBe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had another class today. Two things about the online homework, it's not timed, it just has to be done by the due date and the problems correspond to the problems in the book:yeah:. So I guess I...

  20. Chemistry Fall 2010

    justbee replied to SomedayIWillBe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Well, I signed into the Pearson online part for homework and I am seriously reconsidering if I want to stay in the class. I went through the intro lessons which teach you how to enter your answers in...

  21. how to get motivated for pre reqs

    justbee replied to JonB04's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi, I just wanted to add not to get into the mindset of certain classes will be an easy A. I took A&P II with Microcomputer Apps., Comp 1 and Sociology last Spring thinking I would have lots of...

  22. Chemistry Fall 2010

    justbee replied to SomedayIWillBe's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Went to my first class today. The professor seems great, really helpful. The bummer though is online homework through the Pearson portal, so I have to buy the access card. We covered scientific...

  23. Needing some feedback

    justbee replied to cookie422's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    First, I wish you all the best. There are other single parents on this site who have worked and attended nursing school at the same time. My only suggestion is to maybe explore the LPN program since...

  24. Is it to late for me to become a Nurse?

    justbee replied to louis345's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
