I'm 26 and graduated with a BA in the summer of 2009 and enrolled in nursing pre-req. courses in the summer of 2009. I had a very nice job, but the longevity of it was not appealing. So, I quit and told my parents I'm moving back home for 2 years. ...

I agree with ImThatGuy. Given your past experience (academically and occupation) you will be fine. I'm going to assume you know all about time mgmt., understanding concepts (not memorizing things just for a test), etc. You will be just fine. I'm...

Congrats! Get as much rest as you can before you start.

Those times may be subjective. It all boils down to: type of pt., type of med, hospital med admin. polices, etc. Check with your instructor to see what he or she wants on your test.

I am in the same position. My first test is 09/15 in Adult Nursing I. I currently study about 2-4 hrs. per day and a lot on the weekends. I've done NCLEX style questions from the Kozier & Erb (textbook for class) web site and at the end of the...

I am currently on break before my next semester of nursing school. The two classes that I have are: Health Promotion Across the Lifespan and Adult Nursing I. In addition to preparing for these classes, I'd like to start learning a few drugs. I c...

I understand all schools are not that same, but can someone give me info. on what I will be studying in the classes below: 1. Adult Nursing I 2. Health Assessment I want to get a jump start on preparing for the classes. Any tips, etc. will be grea...

@FLhopeful2011 Yes, but I'm not sure which book my teacher used. I used an older A&P book to study, but they all are relatively the same. A&P is A&P.

@jones0651 - Here are a few tips: - Study at least 1-2 hrs. per day - If you don't understand a concept; Google it and read about it - Form a study group - Don't miss lecture or labs - Review (repetition is key) - Ask questions - Never wait un...

@jones0651 - I did make an A. :) Hopefully, I will make an A in A&P II.

You will do fine. I have tons of notes at the links below: All A&P I notes: http://drop.io/ap1_notes (ZIP file) 200+ lab pics: Learnings - a set on Flickr It's going to be tough, but manageable. Repetition is key. Enjoy!

There should be numerous programs online that you can use to unzip files for free. You can do a quick Google search. Or, you can email me and I'll reply with them as attachments. My email is above in my first post.

Here are over 200 pictures that may help you with lecture and lab. I believe I have a few pics in there on the nervous system. Learnings - a set on Flickr

How much time are you putting towards studying the material? How does the instructor test? In my opinion, A&P I and II are not hard. Not one bit. Here are a few tips: - Form a study group - Study at least 1 hr. per day - If you don't under...

Here are more notes that cover: blood vessels, heart, immune, lymphatic, digestion, metabolism, respiration, etc. http://drop.io/dyu0fe1 Enjoy!

Here are all my lab photos as well: http://www.flickr.com/photos/agwade/sets/72157622530238834/ Includes: bones, muscles, ligaments, tissues, etc.

Here are all of my notes from A&P I: http://drop.io/ap1_notes Enjoy the class! I'm currently in A&P II and will start the ADN program this summer at the Univ. of Arkansas at Little Rock. Enjoy!

Are there any people here applying for the Fall 2010 ASN Nursing Program at the University of Arkansas Little Rock (UALR)? I sent in my application a few weeks back. Hopefully I am accepted. :)

@lizv - Congrats! If you want, you can shoot me an email and maybe form a study group of some sort. I assume this will be a long 2-years! My email is ag.wade (at) gmail (dot) com.

I am doing an ADN at The Univ. of Arkansas at Little Rock. I have already completed the prereq. classes (A&P I and II, College Algebra, etc.) I found A&P I and II very easy, so hopefully this intro. class will be a breeze. Thanks!

I am starting the UALR ASN program May 2010. If anyone else is starting, please email me at: ag.wade (at) gmail (dot) com I'd like to start connecting with some students to make this journey through nursing school interesting! Thanks!

Cool. Let me know if you need the study guide for the HESI. It's not that bad of a test. This is the first year that UALR is using HESI, so I do not think they are going to judge your admission based on your scores. Obviously, you want to do aver...

Thanks! I took the HESI in December 2009 (Dallas, Tx). Have you applied?

I received my letter for the fall 2010 asn program. Is anyone else attending? Please shoot me an email if so. Email - ag.wade (at) gmail (dot) com Thanks.
