  5. What I am Taking This Summer (Is it too much?)

    In one summer, I personally think that's too much. As some have said, online courses can be much more difficult than regular brick-and-mortar courses because you are basically teaching yourself the...
  6. Who else is taking/has taken Microbiology??

    Assuming it's a prerequisite for your RN program, will you need to retake Micro if you fail? Will they still accept you if you fail it now? I've been accepted into a program on the condition that I...
  7. What are the nursing schools in your area like??

  9. Is this possible???

    I don't think that most BSN students necessarily already have a prior associate's degree or a prior nursing degree. Every school has certain prerequisites for their program, whether it's an...
  10. Who else is taking/has taken Microbiology??

    Wow. I am in shock. That is sexual harrassment if I've ever heard it! :angryfire I took Micro last fall and loved it! It really helps to have a good teacher who loves the subject and can make it...

  14. Should I take a refresher chem class?

    I had never taken chem (not even in HS) before I took A&P I and once I figured a few things out, it was fine and I got an A. Since you've taken chem before, I'm sure all the terms, like the...

    Don't despair, I got accepted at U of P but I called them to decline, so there's one more spot available for somebody else! My GPA is 3.83 cumulative and I just have a little bit of volunteer...

  22. Direct Entry Programs- How hard to get in?

    Yes. I knew Diana would know what I meant since she's from here, but I didn't think about the fact that the rest of you wouldn't know what the heck I was talking about! I've enjoyed reading this...
  23. Direct Entry Programs- How hard to get in?

    Diana, did you apply for the direct entry programs at U of P or OHSU? Just wondering if you were set on moving back east, or if the programs here did not interest you. Rene (also from rainy
