Does anyone have a link to an online metric conversion chart? My Pharmacology teacher gave us a practice quiz on basic metric conversion and I can't for the life of me remember what they are! TIA

I start an ADN program in January 06. I go to orientation tomorrow and then I still have to get my physical. I must get ready to fork out the money! Wendy

We had our first class last night. I have the same teacher as last semester for A&P I so I already knew what to expect. I think we're going to have 5 tests including the final. Later we're going to dissect a rat. That oughta be interesting.

Hi everyone! It looks like some of you have already started class. Mine doesn't start until Wednesday but since I found this thread I'm going to go ahead and join in. I'm having the same teacher as I did for A&P I. I did really well in his class (got an A) so I hope to do just the same in A&P II. He's a good teacher and I learned alot from him. Good luck to everybody!

I doubt you would. I know at my school all of the health programs have the same pre-reqs. Check in to it. Good luck!

I got my skeletal exam back last night! I made a 93.5!! I didn't think I did that well due to the fact that I didn't study as much as I should have. But much to my suprise I passed. I guess the bonus question helped (name all of the cranial bones).

Did you take a public speaking class? That's a prerequisite for most nursing programs. I used to have a fear of that until I took it, I realized it wasn't half bad. I just imagined talking to one person instead of a class full of people. That said, I would highly reccomend you taking a public speaking class if you haven't already, then you'll feel alot more comfortable with the situation. Good luck!

This belongs in it's own thread but I wanted to post it here since it is the A&P 1 club thread and I hope to get better response here. But I need some tips about how to study the the Epithelial Tissues. We have a test on them Monday night and I'm having trouble remembering the characteristics (I'm familiar with the shapes. e.g. Stratified=layered, Squamous=thin and flattened, ect.) I just need to know where the locations, characteristics are ect. I pretty much have the connective down pat, it's just the epithelial that I'm having trouble with. TIA!

THANK YOU FUN2CARE! Our test on Monday covers the Integumentary System and this will help ALOT in my memorization!

I made a 93.2 on my first lecture test and a 100 on my first lab test.

Count me in! I start A&P 1 on January 5.

That's a good way to remember them! Even though we didn't have to know them in order, I still found myself forgetting some of them. :stone Thanks for the witty nmonic (sp). Wendy Formerly known as Future LPN

I found it from a link off of another message board. This site has been very helpful to me and I love the support that we have for each other.

Thanks for the reply. I did look into it and the requirements are just about the same as the LPN requirements at my school. Just one or two extra classes thrown in there. This is just something I'm considering right now. The catolog also mentions that going to two different facilites for job shadowing is a requirement for the admission to the program. So I may take an A&P course this semester and figure out where I wanna go from there.
