  2. Micro Fall 2010

    Aaargh, feel like I'm running on empty right now. Tomorrow is my final for lecture and I feel like I have nothing left. Not sure how well I'll do on this final. I have an A going in so I know the...
  3. Chemistry requirement on it's way out?

    My school does not require Chem as a pre-req - BUT there's a catch - Chem is a pre-req for A&P so there's really no way around doing it here. Its not calculated in your pre-req GPA
  4. Is this even possible?

    There are schools here that offer ADN to MSN programs - with at least 1 year working RN experience. No BSN required. You might want to check if your state has schools that offer such a
  5. $50 is way less than what I am
  6. Worried

    Be sure to check the repeat policy of your school or the schools you want to attend. At my school, you would have already shot yourself in the foot with 3 repeats. Some schools will let you replace...
  7. Worried

    Have you ever taken one of those tests to see what kind of learner you are? I read the chapter to familiarize myself with the material and terms. But reading a chapter over and over would not have...

    Did my lab final today! Got a 93 and an A for the class. 1 down, 1 more to go with Lecture Final next week. Thats gonna be like a heavy weight boxing match with 150 questions! Yikes!! Better get to...
  10. online b.s. in nursing program not a rn to bsn

    I think the way that nursing school is set up, it would be impossible to do it all online. Not only are there clinicals, but skills training in lab and checkoffs are a big part of nursing programs....
  11. It's really happening!

    Congrats!!! Good luck! I will be just beginning nursing classes in January. I am looking forward to making this same post in another year and a
  12. online b.s. in nursing program not a rn to bsn

    I doubt that you will find such a program,online BSN from scratch. Also please do some research on Med tech. If memory serves me correctly, there may be some issues with accreditation and you may run...
  13. Is this a bad TEAS V score???

    Contact the schools you are interested in. Don't panic yet. Different schools have different criteria for passing the TEASV - My school does the proficient,advanced and exemplary for the TEAS....
  14. Micro Fall 2010

    We are in the homestretch! I have lab finals this week and lecture final the following week. Anyone else get to the helminths and get completely grossed out? OMG, our lab prof showed us a pic of a...
  15. Would appreciate advice on combining pre-reqs

    Just like the previous poster, at my school, A&P I & II and Micro are taken in a sequence. They can't be taken together. But different schools do different things. I've seen folks take Micro...
  16. Need Microbiology help- unknown bacteria

    My unknown was Citrobacter freundii, it was negative for indole,positive for motility and sulfur so if you have Citrobacter it should not have been negative for everything in the SIM. Acid in...
  17. Is this realistic?

    The only thing I would caution you about is the idea of retaining a social life. You must do something to unwind, so I am not telling you not to have a social life, but how active is it gonna be? I...
  18. Do I have to take History to be a nurse.

    i totally agree! this is my 2nd degree- the first time around, i only took classes for my chosen profession. this time around i decided not only did i want to train for a profession, but i wanted to...
  19. Lost high school transcripts

    Hope things get rectified. I had a similar situation. My school is still open but apparently some records from the 90's were lost. I know it seems like we've been living in the computer age for ever,...
  20. Congrats Anne36! See you on the other side, its nice to see some of the folks that I'm used to seeing on this side will be on the other side
  21. 79K for a BSN???

    Have you considered public colleges? A private college would be my very last resort if I had been rejected by all public colleges. Even then its iffy that I would spend that much in this day and age....
  22. With me, I'm loving the classes I'm taking. This is actually my best semester since I've been back in school. I've scored a perfect 100 on a few exams and near perfect 97 or 98 on most of the others....
  23. Competative GPA

    Talking to folks I know that are starting nursing classes at my school in January, their GPA ranged from 3.4 to
  24. It ebbs and flows. I can't wait for this semester to be over! I need a break. I'm going to make sure I really enjoy the winter break before I start nursing classes. Most of my days will be spent...
  25. Where can I go from here!

    How about Histology Tech or Medical Technologist? We went on a field trip to a lab last week, Quest Diagnostics and it looked pretty interesting. Both fields are supposed to be in demand fields....
