  1. Biology Prerequisites

    Which is harder is more dependent on the prof than the class. Also on what kind of material is easier for
  2. Biology Prerequisites

    I asked this exact question of various profs, adviors and students who had taken the classes (my school also offer anatomy and physiology seperately). The answer was don't take physiology without...
  3. Anatomy before Chemistry?

    You have a good plan. There is no chemistry in Anatomy. Perhaps your advisor is confusing Anatomy with A&P. The math in chemistry is not college algebra. It is fractions and conversions, adding,...
  4. Genetic Testing is an ethical issue?

    Screening can also take place in the school environment, particularly for learning disabilities such as fragile-X syndrome. This kind of screening is particularly difficult to justify in terms of the...
  5. Last minute advice and tips

    For example, if it is usually understanding the concepts fairly well but not sure what the question asked vs mixing up similar terminology. Different patterns have different remedies. The basics...
  6. Last minute advice and tips

    Is there a pattern to what you miss on tests? I mean what kinds of
  7. I'm a little confused

    Do they get many who haven't do the "guarenteed track Admission" where you take English, Math, A&P 1 and 11, Gen Psyc, Human Dev, and humanities elective? (very nice feature by the way, at least...
  8. Distraught college kid

    Some schools count only the latest take of the class, do not care how many times you retake it, and do not freak out over a "w," and as long as the overall gpa is over a 2.5, do not care what it is....
  9. My situation, what should I do? :(

    BSN programs require more gen ed classes than CC programs, so you could fill the year taking those if you think you might want to bridge to a BSN later. Although, in some schools that wouldn't...
  10. I'm trying to make group projects less frustrating. I thought if everyone is on the same page to start with, it would help. Some will have more than one answer... it is just a place to start and...
  11. I wouldn't pay for it mostly because I wouldn't trust the accuracy. I've made charts like this of the schools in my area, and often find what you did - the info is scattered, incomplete, and changes...
  12. I agree with FL husker. Maybe better to take either Nutrition or Psych to the fall rather than both over the summer.... maybe see which makes the better schedule (by hours or by preferred profs) or...
  13. How can I get into a university for nursing?

    Both paths start out the same way, so you don't have to decide now. If I were you, I would take whatever math you place into and the PHCC equivelent of Biology I over the summer. You will need them...
  14. I agree with the other posters about placing into right level rather than trying stretching/cramming to place as high as you can. However, sometimes it is a simple thing to solidify a minor weak spot...
  15. Nursing Advice PLEASE!

    I don't know anything about either school but I've been reading the posts on allnurses about getting into California schools of nursing so tend to believe the *extremely difficult to change* I'd would...
  16. How can I get into a university for nursing?

    I keep asking that same question of everyone from college advisors to current nurses and anyone else I think might know. Best I can tell, there is as many nursing classes in one as in the other...
  17. How can I get into a university for nursing?

    Sort of. It isn't quite that simple because different BSN programs have different prereq lists and different admission criteria for their nursing programs - which are always??? different than the...
  18. I needed one. The CNA class didn't require it but it it took me a lot more practice than I could get in the half hour or so that we spent taking turns practicing taking vital signs in class. I...
  19. Mine has varied a lot in all the areas you mentioned. Credits from 3 to 17, work from 0 to 35 hours per week, no relationship to married with four kids (at home), no commute to a 50 min. commute....
  20. Taking Anatomy and Physiology 1 in the summer?

    I looked up your school. I was suprised that they don't have the summer classes out yet and that I couldn't find a way to look at last year's summer classes. I did find a calendar and confirmed that...
  21. Any good ideas for an ethical issue paper?

    Look along the shelves around R 724 . J69 of your school's library. The tables of contents of the books and journals there should give you a sense of the current issues in medical ethics (not nursing...
  22. Take the extra time and get an ADN. RNs make more than LPNs and in most areas have many more employment options. And having a degree tends to mess up financial aid grants.... although you should...
  23. You would be better off taking the extra year so you can spread the classes out and allow yourself a better chance of success in them. I do realize how much you want to go faster but 13 credits over...
  24. I would graciously thank grandma but use more recent books. Either buy some from the list for next fall or check out libraries. Some things don't change but too much does change and you won't know...
  25. They're Their and There

    I liked the owl site but it didn't cover "Let's"... that is a contraction of "let us." I had to google it, I am not a grammar or a punctuation nazi but my daughter is. I've been trying to fix some...
