  1. What did/do you dissect in A&P lab?

    We did a rat, a lot of work with cats, sheep brain, cow eye and pig heart. The formaldehyde smell stuck to everyone's lab manuals... Every time someone would pull out their manual in lecture, we'd all...
  2. Finding health insurance...

    Be careful of filling out forms for online insurance quotes... I did one, quotes were far too expensive for me to afford and then it started... I have insurance salespeople calling and emailing every...
  3. Lavc - nursing program -positive tb test

    I always test positive and have to have an X-ray (which is always negative). I am from Europe and had a BCG vaccine as a child, which often gives false positives on PPD
  4. 31 and foreigner, will I handle it ?

    You will do just fine! I am not a native english speaker either, I will admit it took some studying to familiarize myself with terminology for the science classes, I felt like I had never studied...

    I'm happy with my interview... How about you? The interviewer was very nice, made it a lot easier. Now the real nerve wracking wait begins!
  14. Albany, NY Area Applicants

    No waiting list as far as I know... HVCC is a lot harder to get into. Many nursing students have told me that with my grades, the only thing that might hold me back (assuming the interview goes well)...

    I go to a community college and we have to have chem (and bio) within 5 years to move on to
  23. Microbiology spring 2013

    Microbiology for me as well... I went with a few "easier" classes with it though, developmental psych and medical terminology. I plan on getting the A&P's done over the summer. Already ordered the...
