    How many hrs a day did u study for A&P1

    I maybe studied 1 hour a day during the week. Maybe. On Saturday and Sunday I studied 5 to 6 hours each day. It was my "weekend class" because I worked on all of my other classes during the week and...

    I am not trying to be pessimistic but

    But they haven't notified yet, correct? Don't give up hope. An average is just an average; it doesn't factor in outliers. (Learned that from statistics class.) And if you don't get in you will apply...

    I don't know if i can do this

    Yes, you can. It sounds like you had a really rough day, and it's okay to cry. Obviously you have a great, sensitive heart; don't feel like that's a bad thing. You can do

    Help!! Steps to shadowing a Nurse?

    You can try talking to HR. I shadowed one summer and all of my paperwork/interviews/etc. were through the volunteer portion of HR. I was in high school at the time, but I don't see why you can't at...

    Terrifed of nursing school

    I come from much the same background, and I've had no problem with college-level work. Perhaps you are just underestimating yourself. Obviously it is hard, but if you really want to you can do

    A&P 2

    I wouldn't say 2 is easier, but for me it was more enjoyable. Finally I got to learn about "the cool" systems of the body (because the skeletal and nervous systems are so uncool, you know ). It's less...

    Microbiology Scare

    I don't think it really matters if you take microbiology with or before anatomy and physiology. You might have to work a tiny bit harder to understand the anatomy involved, but my microbiology teacher...

    Schedules for this upcoming semester

    I'm sure you'll do great! I was able to space mine out pretty well, but I took A&P2 and chemistry the same semester so that I wouldn't have to take summer classes. Chemistry isn't easy, and you...

    I start this week. My last semester of prereqs!! I feel like the break was too short, though. I'm not ready for the stress. I'm taking patho and the syllabus says I need to read the first two chapters...

    Advice for Pathophysiology and A&P 2

    I liked A&P2 much more than A&P1. It was harder because it was less about memorizing and more about understanding entire organ systems and how they affect each other. But that made it all the...

    Schedules for this upcoming semester

    I'm taking developmental psych and patho along with a couple of core classes I left for the end and a history of nursing type class. I really liked statistics, but I've always liked math. It's all...

    Microbiology Scare

    I'm sure you will be fine. Just because someone has a bad rating on that site doesn't mean he or she isn't a good teacher. Two professors I've taken classes from were rated horribly, and comments said...

    Microbiology

    For me, micro was easier than both A&Ps. It built off of A&P because we discussed how microorganisms affect each organ system. The whole semester is talk of bacteria, parasites, fungi, and all...

    I'm studying for the TEAS over the break. I started out just using McGraw Hill's 5 TEAS Practice Tests book, but I realized that some concepts I just didn't understand. Then I bought ATI's study guide...

    Best NCLEX review book?

    Which NCLEX review/study book is the best? Which is your favorite? I'm pre-nursing for one more semester, but I'd like to get an NCLEX book so that I can use it through nursing school to hopefully...

    Much needed advice please:)

    I'm in the south as well and I've never heard of it either. I think the information you read is incorrect. Check with the specific nursing program you are interested in to be sure, but I highly doubt...
