  5. Microbiology: Spring 2010

    Suse replied to blueyesue's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you for the tip. So memorize stuff like Krebs and Glycolysis? There is a tremendous amount of detail. I was just wondering if there were any tips/tricks that were helpful. The professor...

  6. Microbiology: Spring 2010

    Suse replied to blueyesue's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The problem I am having is that it is so much information. I need direction on how to break it up into digestible chunks, if you will. Like, what do I need to memorize? All the various cycles, each...

    Suse replied to Summers_Off's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am in micro now. I have already taken, A&P1, A&P2 & chem. I would highly reccommend you take the A&P1 first, as it will lay the foundation for at least some stuff in micro like...

    Suse replied to sarailyse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This has been the most entertaining thread! I totally empathize with OP's choices, and totally respect her position. I love animals! My 16 year old is dissecting a cat this week in A&P. Our cat...

  12. Would you guys recommend taking Micro or Anatomy/Phys first?

    Suse replied to futureRN-BSN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  13. A&P prof's inappropriate response to request for alternative to animal dissection

    Suse replied to sarailyse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Personal ethics HAVE to be put aside. I work in a trauma unit. We had a guy in here, critical, and intubated, whose license was flagged that he was a SEX OFFENDER. The docs and nurses STILL treat...

    Suse replied to blueyesue's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
