    Help! Requested a C- to repeat Anatomy at SDSU, really regret it!

    lifelearningrn replied to Freakquency's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Ask yourself why you're having trouble succeeding in A&P. You took the class once and received a D. The second time really should have come much easier, and the fact you were only to bring your...

    Summer A&P Crisis

    lifelearningrn replied to CordaeP's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Vintagemother- I found making my own flash cards really worked wonders to get me through lecture tests. Taking pictures in lab and making your own flash cards out of that helps

    micro

    lifelearningrn replied to momtojosh's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Micro has been, by and far, the easiest science class I've taken. I loved it though.. the teacher was awesome and the class was interesting. I found AP2 to be a lot like AP1 as far as difficulty.....

    Summer A&P Crisis

    lifelearningrn replied to CordaeP's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just took a 5 week chem/lab and I can totally relate to how you're feeling right now. It's a ton of material to cover in a short period of time. All of our tests covered something we didn't learn...

    Pulled it Off! Marathon (5 week) General Inorganic Chemistry w/Lab

    lifelearningrn posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What a ride!! I took Chemistry in a five week class. 5 hours a night, 4 days a week. I've been dreaming Chemistry every night since it started. It's been stuffed in my head. It was hard, but one thing...

    Question about Pace's Prerequisites (Chemistry)

    lifelearningrn replied to Catticus11's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'd call- but I can't see why they wouldn't allow a class that is more intensive and covers more material plus a lab. That would be kind of silly. Having said that, I hated General Chemistry w/lab....

    Have You Forgotten it All?

    lifelearningrn posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've taken what feels like a million classes over the past few years.. and this last year has been all nursing/BSN pre-requisites (doing the last one- Chemistry- right now). In all the prerequisite...

    UTMB Fall 2011 Applicants

    lifelearningrn replied to chaos0058's topic in Texas Nursing

    I think I'm the only one here that is going to receive a rejection letter.. how absolutely deflating is that?? I wish they'd just have sent it right away.. and speaking of rejection, when WILL they...

    Am I wasting my time going to nursing school?

    lifelearningrn replied to NursingN.C's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Then do it! There are few jobs for new grads in ANY career right now.. but if you stick to it you'll find something. I think a LOT of new grads you see complaining (not all, so no offense if this...

    Taking Micro, Stats and Nutrition AT THE SAME TIME...TOO MUCH?

    lifelearningrn replied to CardiacRNLA's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't think it's too much at all. I took Nutrition, Stats, AP1 and Lifespan all in one semester and it was doable. I found Micro to be much easier than AP1 so that should make it even better for...

    How did everyone do in your Spring classes?

    lifelearningrn replied to lifelearningrn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I totally know where you are coming from. I felt the same way.. I needed a pretty good grade to pull off my A and the stress of getting that grade was through the roof. I hated that I didn't have...

    How did everyone do in your Spring classes?

    lifelearningrn replied to lifelearningrn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Great work y'all!! One of the reasons I'm taking chem is a 5 week marathon course is because I really don't want to stretch this torturous course over a regular 16 weeks.. also... I hate summer time....

    How should I decline a job offer ?

    lifelearningrn replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Nursing

    I wouldn't go up there at all. I'd call first thing in the morning, explain the situation, say thank you but no thank you, and be done with it. No matter how you handle this, you're likely not going...

    Question for Career Changers

    I debated where to post this.. but I've been seeing a lot of people saying they are going 'back' to school so I thought I'd ask here.

    In what order should I take these classes?

    lifelearningrn replied to Aly529's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't think you'll have any trouble at all taking AP before chem. I took it as well as general bio (1,2) without it. The chem is very basic, and if you read that section in the text you'll be fine....
