  1. The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club: A&P 2

    Two women in my lecture tape the class. I have a voice recorder on my PDA, but haven't used it much. It only tapes well if it is right near the person speaking. They like it, but I don't know that...
  2. The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club: A&P 2

    Don't feel badly about your first exam!! I hesitate posting about mine, because I have, in all honesty, never received lower than a grade of 89 on ANY test in college. EVER. I got a 69. I'm furious...
  3. migraines and nursing

    I've had migraines since the age of 3. I tried Topomax about a year and a half ago, and I couldn't get past the awful side effects to know if it worked or not. I finally am seeing a new Neuro, and...
  4. The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club: A&P 2

    Great job on the grades everyone!! Woohoo!! I found out yesterday that our prof is HORRIBLE about grading exams! We'll be lucky if we get our grades before our NEXT exam, on 2/28 - next Monday....
  5. Freeloading Classmates....GRRR!

    Unfortunately, while you may keep dropping hints, you and your classmates, some people just NEVER get it. You can even tell them to their face that you can't help them anymore, and they STILL don't...
  6. The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club: A&P 2

    I'm still waiting for my test results from our exam Monday - on endocrine and blood! I also had to take the lab quiz I missed on Thursday due to weather. I think I bombed on both of
  7. The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club: A&P 2

    I've got my first A&P2 exam tomorrow, on endocrine and blood. I've been studying on and off all weekend, taking small breaks (like for Allnurses!), but this stuff is just not sinking in! We even...
  8. Congratulations!! What a joy! :) I will say, and being the lone one saying it, that if I had my husband watching my son, and not having to put him in daycare, I would still do the courses. At least...
  9. LNA Questions

    I finished my first semester of my ADN program, so I sent off my paperwork with a letter from my school, stating that I had completed so many hours in Fundamentals, and now I can get my LNA license....
  10. LVN's without microscope experience?

    I know for me, in an ADN program, I hadn't used a microscope in YEARS. The last time I had was in Chemistry and Biology in HS- many, many moons ago! LOL Since I took A&P1 online, I looked at...
  11. nursing magazine info please

    I just did a Google search for it. I can't remember who publishes it, but they do a lot of books and
  12. nursing magazine info please

    I like "Incredibly Easy" also. That was the first one I subbed to. When I was accepted to my current program, we were required to sub to "RN". I also subbed to "Nursing2005" for good measure. I...
  13. my very sick puppy Frex

    I didn't see the original post, but I'm glad your pup made it through the surgery. I'll keep a good thought for
  14. How about this for an order?

    I was prescribed Ativan when I had shingles several years ago on my face and scalp. It worked great on the headaches I got because of
  15. What kind of patient would you make????!!!

    I'm a terrible patient. I'm only in nursing school right now, and the nurses knew it, and I've only had one semester of clinicals. I would hate to have a pt. like myself. I d/c myself after 3 days...
  16. Hoping for help with Alopecia

    I'm a woman that has had it in the past. My dermatologist put me on Rogain - not the one for women, but the Extra-Strength one for men. It did work, but I can't take it for more than 6-8 months at a...
  17. Failing A&P

    I have to say, that I've did about 1/2 of my pre-req's at a CC also. I'm now attending an expensive Catholic college, and I have seen JUST AS MANY lazy students as there were in the CC. There are...
  18. The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club: A&P 2

    Good job!!! I love that feeling after a test!
  19. TOOK NCLEX 2/3/05, had 265 !!

    congratulations!!!
  20. The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club: A&P 2

    I must say, as the weeks go on, I'm glad I deferred the rest of my nursing courses (I finished Nsg. 101 last semester) until next January. I can't imagine trying to do all of this A&P2 studying...
  21. The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club: A&P 2

    I've been struggling with those also. I finally just did a big "tree" of all the endocrine organs and what they secrete and what other organ they may affect. Too big for one page, so one page per...
  22. The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club: A&P 2

    I love my TIVO! It got me through my first semester of nursing school. I did have to cut back on the programs that I had subscriptions to (I was glad when Friends went off the air, and I don't like...
  23. Blind Nursing Student?

    I had a blind diabetes nurse educator once. Not only was she great at her job, but helpful to the diabetics with eye/blindness problems who can't see medicine labels, food labels, etc. She had lots...
  24. The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club: A&P 2

    We're doing blood now, and spent our entire lab looking/analyzing our own blood. So yes, our instructor does, but we don't do any actual dissection in this lab until the end, and then it's a fetal...
  25. The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club: A&P 2

    Best of luck! It is a lot to remember. I found if I apply it to myself, all the parts and stuff, it was easier to
