  1. I knew I could do it!

    karamarie91 replied to ashmcgr's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Whoo!!! That's a whole lot of classes in 10 weeks. I can relate to what your saying about the skepticism that you were faced with when you told people about your schedule. I just finished taking 8...

  2. Spanish class or Rosetta?

    karamarie91 replied to OBplease's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Perhaps you could get both. I've taken numerous spanish classes, but the language always slips out my head because I'm not using it on a regular basis. However, perhaps, your whole family can use...

  3. Hardest Prerequisite

    karamarie91 replied to tiffjh2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    lol. Your school didn't have a tutoring center? Mine did. I was in there every day for College

  4. Bauder College Pleasant Surprise

    karamarie91 replied to HopefulNurse2011's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Well, were you looking for a school to complete pre-reqs? If so, why not just go to a public school? Cheaper and more credible. But yea.. I avoid those for-profit schools like the

  5. CNA 3-11pm

    karamarie91 replied to trillnurse7's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    3-11 is call light

  6. Hardest Prerequisite

    karamarie91 replied to tiffjh2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    A &P made me study like I never did before. However, taking Chem during the same time(in a 8 week summer session) made everything even

  7. What's in your CNA work bag?

    karamarie91 replied to Poi Dog's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I'm truly considering buying a electronic thermometer because I can never find one on the unit. Luckily, there is a lady who I work with who always has one, and we all have to take turns using it.I...

  8. powertripping

    karamarie91 replied to tiffjh2's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Story of my life too. But I just learned that some nurses are helpful and some aren't. But to tell you to look at your ID then yours is rude. I would have been angry. She was better off telling you...

  9. Grady Hospital - volunteering??

    karamarie91 replied to breezy7's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I had got stuck in Guest Services. The staff was cool, but I would have rather been around more nurses like in the ER. I didn't get to see much as a volunteer in Guest

  10. Have You Forgotten it All?

    karamarie91 replied to lifelearningrn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I too have this issue. But I'm thankful for the very basic knowledge I will be leaving my pre-reqs with. At least when an instructor brings something up, I can dig into my memory for that "lost"...

  11. Summer school anyone?

    karamarie91 replied to DarkBluePhoenix's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Finished A & P I with an A! I hope to survive the rest of this Chem and A & P II. I'm out of my drag from the last

    karamarie91 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello everyone. I want to take the Teas V for the first time this summer but I dont want to spend $40+ for the teas study guide. I've looked on craigslist,amazon, and ebay and eighter can't find the...

  13. Anatomy flash cards?

    karamarie91 replied to Lame's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I take pictures with my camera phone too, but I don't know how to print them out to make flashcards... I would just look at my pictures whenever I was out shopping or any spare

  14. HELP ME PLEASE! Pre-reqs in the same semester

    karamarie91 replied to MsCRC's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I've been told that you shouldn't take more than one science in a semester. But I'm taking A&P I, II, and Chemistry this summer... and I'm doing it. So it just depends on how much time you can...

  15. Anatomy flash cards?

    karamarie91 replied to Lame's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I bought the flashcards by Kaplan's to study the muscular system but for the most part, I was disappointed because it didnt have most of the muscles I needed to study. Furthermore, there is nothing...

  16. A&P I help?

    karamarie91 replied to proudtobehismommy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You should look into buying an atlas or using your textbook. I'm taking A &P I right now but that class is all about memorization. I don't have all that info in my head right now!!! Make an atlas...

  17. Straight B student?

    karamarie91 replied to magichospital's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think its more about your GPA as a whole rather than the grade you got in each class. Getting more A's will increase your GPA than getting more B's. Technically, most if not all schools say they...

  20. Anatomy & Physiology (1 and 2) + Microbiology = SUMMER

    karamarie91 replied to nerfs-mode-on's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The time to become a CNA depends on the length of the program you choose. There are tons of small private schools(well at least in Georgia) that teach CNA courses for as little as 4 weeks. However,...

  21. Has anyone used Saladin:Unity of Form and Funciton A&P Textbook?

    karamarie91 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi. I am wodering if I would be able to get away with buying the used copy of this textbook instead of the new version, so I can save some money. Does the new version have CD's or any other additional...

  22. Resigned From Long Term Care

    karamarie91 replied to interceptinglight's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    I was so surprised that a nurse would actually sceam at me yesterday. I let it go because being a nurse is so stressful that they have to let out their frustration. But as a new CNA leaving a...

  23. very irritated with my job!

    karamarie91 replied to asfreeaswelleverb's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    That frustrates me as well, because I'm thinking, "How can I give proper care, when they(the resident, especially demented or with Alheizemers) keep refusing? But I'm continuing to learn different...
