I kept on getting 68's on the online tests. When I took the actual exam, I got an 81. I know, I know, not as impressive as these guys that have posted before me. Haha. I'm gonna retake it in a couple...
THANKS!! I wish I knew about studyshack when I was taking micro! I made a ton of flash cards for that class & that website and your templates would have helped a
You know, I was looking at SJ's admission requirements. I found out that you can't have any prereqs in progress when you apply. I thought that was weird so I called the school & they really do not...
Thanks! =) Sonoma State is my top choice. They go by a points system too, but I'm not sure how many points they require for admission. I think that if you study craaaazy hard, then you should be fine....
I was feeling okay, until I got the science portion. People were right-- the science is NOTHING like the study manual. I haven't taken A&P yet so I tried to study as much as I could. All the other...
General ed classes are great to take online! I took 2 music classes online during the summer (one this summer & the other last summer). They were very easy for me. We were required to participate...
I would focus a lot on the science. That makes up a bigger portion of the exam. It helps to buy the ATI study guide and get the online practice tests as well. The math is explained very well in the...
The people that I saw working 40 hours a week struggled way more w/ a full load of classes. They seemed to be absent from class more frequently as well. I work 20 hours a week. In between working and...
I'm trying to aim a little higher too. I hope I get a score in the high 80's. The science portion really makes me nervous since I've only taken micro and chem. I will be taking Anatomy in the fall...
Money is definitely a factor for why I want to go into nursing, but it's also something that I've been dreaming of becoming since I was a little girl. I think it all began when my dad was diagnosed w/...
I'm applying for fall 2012 so I will have a summer in between. I'm planning on getting my CNA license, working, looking for a new job near my school/apartment, and sorting out my financial stuff.
My micro teacher's former student, who is an RN now, came into class last semester to talk about her experience in nursing school. She told us it's basically impossible to work. I got freaked out by...
When I had Facebook, I did post my grades up once in a while, especially if it was a test that I studied really hard for. I never had a problem with anyone posting their grades up. However, I never...
I took micro before A&P. I did really well but I studied HARD. It helps to know your anatomy when learning all the different diseases. I'm taking anatomy in the fall. Micro is all memorization and...
I took chem and micro together last semester, along with philosophy and a workout class. I worked 24 hours a week, but when the spring semester started, I cut my hours down to 18. It's do-able, but...
Yes, you should totally do it. It's also something to fall back on in an emergency, just in case you are unable to go to nursing school and will look good on a nursing school
I'm sure you're more prepared for it than you think then. For my class, the first half of the semester dealt more w/ terms and structures of microbes. The 2nd half dealt more w/ the major diseases and...
