I thought this was one of the easiest classes I took. Having said that, we had a quiz every class. We had 8 mini papers (2-3 pages each) as well as a larger (7-8 page) paper. We had 4 or 5 tests throughout the semester.

Most of the BSN programs in my area dont require Chem but the one I wanted to apply to requires general chem 1. So I just did that. General chem is usually a more flexible class in that it fulfills more requirements.Our gen chem class also dipped i...

Good luck on the wedding SopranoKris! I was finishing up my MS when I got married and it definitely was hectic. Our semester is offically over (I think?). I am getting an A in Chemistry. It was a rough 6 weeks. Long hours, long days, lots of stre...

I know it is rough SB113 but all you can do is tweak and try again. Did you get any feedback on your application? Anything you could do to improve your chances? I'm nervous, I really want to go to UMD but nothing is guaranteed in life.

It isn't private institutions that are the issue usually, it is the for-profit schools. Generally, they have their own accrediting body which isn't accepted by other institutions. That isn't to say you can't get an RN from them as the BON controls ...

Well as always with for-profit schools, proceed with caution. Understand the future limitations that will be placed upon you and the fact that you are paying a premium.

Well my first advice would be to stop drinking and driving. Secondly, did you miss classes due to the DUIs or other reasons? I would recommend that you retake the classes you got Cs and work on ensuring that you get As. You might want to look for ...

yeah, that looks to be a basic chem course, equivalent to HS chem. I'm in a general chemistry course now (over 6 weeks) and it covers all those topics of your 1/2 and a few more things as well. So unless you are really, really uncertain about Chem,...

And that is your choice but you should also realize that you may not even be interviewed by the manager first. You may be interviewed by an HR person. For the company I worth with now, my initial interviews were with HR. After HR vetted me and thou...

I took AP1 last semester and our school uses minimal dissection. Honestly, unless you plan to go into cat surgery, it probably isn't that valuable. We did do cow eyeballs and sheep brain but mostly everything else was done on human models.

I think it is the fact that those before you have caused a bad reputation. It is disturbing to me to see the number of students that can't be with their iPhones or what not for 5 minutes, even during class. Sure, if you have priorities in life that...

So since you mentioned accredited schools, are you concerned specifically about the classes being able to transfer to any school or just Chamberlain? Chamberlain isn't accredited in the sense that you can't just transfer their classes/degrees anywhe...

Is it intro to chem or is it gen chem? Intro to chem is generally equivalent to HS Chem and some schools may require it prior to taking Gen chem. Also, if your nursing program requires gen chem, then intro won't satisfy the requirement.So since it ...

I'm freaking a little. Our school is closed due to the storms. We have no email communication with the teacher. I do have his phone number but I don't know if I'll be able to take my final. So much stress!

Actually, I don't think you know until you try. Math, for instance, is something that some people get frustrated at easily. So many people don't think they are smart at math. There are different techniques to learn and understand it. For many peo...

You are trying to state that nursing is a vocational degree which seems to be partially true but partially not. Historically, vocational degrees were meant to teach you just what you needed to learn and nothing else. The purpose of a college degree ...

1) Take any pre-requisites at any community college. If you have a BS/BA already, you generally won't have to take any exams to take classes. You would just have to sign up for the school, send them a transcript of your previous college and then st...

I worked 50 hours week and took Human Development and Microbiology together. Human Development was really easy and Micro wasn't too challenging. I imagine it wouldn't be much different.

Luckily, I haven't had to do a serious job hunt since I graduated college (the first time). I definitely fear the job hunt ahead of me after I get into a nursing program and then graduate. The first time around though, I remember talking to 3 compan...

This isn't about 'these kids these days'. Also in terms of changing goal posts, we had email 20 years ago so you'd still get emails from teachers and oh you were expected to check your email even if you didn't have your own computer and you definite...

Oh I don't think there is anything wrong with recording but personally I don't have anything to record with. I also only jot down notes in class, my real writing comes after class. Usually by either going through the book or going through the power...

Throwing out tests completely is crazy and one of the classes I had did that. I do remember some classes curving in my undergrad but it was more a technique for laziness on their part. If everyone does poorly on a test, you know something is wrong w...

Just because you know how to write well and proof read doesn't mean that there isn't a change that is very noticeable. I'm not quite old enough to be your parent (biologically yes but...), but I remember writing a 60 page paper in high school that i...

I've been through 1 BS degree, 1 MS degree, a few classes here and there and now nursing pre-reqs, I've never recorded anything. It is interesting that I figured out writing is the best way for me to commit things to memory. Writing is time consum...

Well I am surprised by the people who will text the entire class. I haven't really experienced it because I've been in classes with mostly older, working adults until I got into my current summer class. There are a few students that text without re...
