   dreatx replied to FNPhopeful's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   Wow. At the CC where i am, a "B" is a borderline disaster if you want nursing. There are too many people that just don't get them. A "C" in one of the core sciences might as well be an

7. Pa None Smoking!

   dreatx replied to LisaG21's topic in General Nursing

9. Human Anatomy and Microbiology at the same time...

   dreatx replied to dreatx's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

   All matters on the teacher you get, I think. If you get two hard core no (A's) in my class teachers at the same time, then your doomed to take bolth at once. Yeah, i think you are right about that....

13. Is my schedule doable?

    dreatx replied to cjog's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You will be fine. Just don't goof off. Consider partying and lounging around a thing of the past and future. You will likely get As and not even feel streesed by the

14. Is anyone else SCARED, after reading some posts from 1st years?

    dreatx replied to Paula7's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
