  1. Struggling and freaking out :(

    I need to rant! I'm in a community college taking my pre reqs for an lpn-rn program and I have to take an entrance exam in a couple of weeks and I just know I'm going to fail it! It's the ACE 1...
  2. LPN A&P compared to RN A&P?

    I just graduated LPN school in April and now I'm currently attending a community college to go back for my RN. I'm doing my pre reqs right now and I'm signed up for a&p 1 next spring...I just...
  3. A&P and micro are, generally, considered the most difficult pre reqs. Taking them together is not easy and will take a lot of study time. I wouldn't advise taking them together unless your a...
  4. I only applied to one school and got in the first time. Don't give
  5. Anatomy test tomorrow!

    I have to disagree with a previous poster lol my brain seemed to do better when I crammed for a test. I guess the stress and adrenaline really woke my brain up. But I've learned that if you can't...
  6. Is this manageable?

    I'm sure it's possible. But I definitely wouldn't do that if I didn't have too. That's a pretty huge
  7. Taking RN pre reqs while in LPN program?

    If I were you I would relax and enjoy my free time! Your social life will be gone when you start school
  8. Taking RN pre reqs while in LPN program?

    It would definitely make the transition from Lpn to rn smoother and quicker. I would if I could have when I was in lpn school. But I don't honesty know if I could have. Lpn school takes up...
  9. Anatomy

    Well it's impossible to know everything​, but be prepared to study from the gross anatomy all the way down to the cellular level
  10. Hmm I've never heard of test banks either, until now. However, this kind of situation is exactly why I don't study with anyone else. Been burned too many times because of fellow students. I've never...
  11. Re-taking prerequistes

    I think some schools will not make you re take them as long as you've been practicing as a nurse and have already taken the classes once. I believe my school does it. You'll have to look around at...
  12. Microbiology & A&P Together

    I just finished taking both this past semester. I agree with the previous poster about scheduling. I was fortunate to never have class or tests on the same day. Most people seem to do better in one...
  13. A&P I & II

    Well I won't say I don't know someone who has done it. I knew one girl who had taken both and did well. But she had already taken them once, but she had to take them again because it had been so long...
  14. A&P I & II

    I'm curious, why are you so determined to take them together? Obviously they aren't meant to be taken simultaneously. Your grades in these two classes are extremely important. You don't want to mess...
  15. Do all nursing schools give the TEAS test?

    Dependent on the program :) mine gives the hesi for the traditional program and the ace exam for the bridge
  16. Microbiology

    Wow....you have a very poor attitude about this whole situation, OP. You seem to be under the impression that your teacher should give you an A when you didn't earn it and if he doesn't, you will go...
  17. Informal poll on grading scale

    In my LPN program we had to have an 81 or above to pass. I know its not the same as an RN program but still...I always thought 81 was a little steep, as well
  18. I've had a pretty easy past two semesters but this fall I'm going to be taking A&P 2 and Micro at the same time! I've read plenty of posts on here about people who have taken both and passed with...
  19. Nervous about this upcoming fall!

    Update: I'm officially finished with the semester! I know some posters said i wouldn't be able to take A&P 2 and micro and come out with A's in both but I'm proud to say I did :) if anyone needs...
  20. How did you do this semester?

    A&P 2: A Microbiology: A I'm so happy to be done!!
  21. About Microbiology

    Oh sorry I just realized you said you already finished A&P 2 :) well either way my opinion is the
  22. About Microbiology

    I'm taking micro and A&P 2 right now and personally I think micro is much much harder than A&P 2. Sometimes the lectures complement each other, such as when talking about immunity, but I found...
  23. Taking Micro and A&P concurrently

    I'm taking A&P 2 and micro right now. Keep in mind I don't work, but I think it's doable. If you are good in science classes, you should be fine. A few hours a day of study time is sufficient, I...
  24. How hard is A&P really?

    I love A&P. It is definitely my favorite thing to study. I'm sure that makes a difference, but I find A&P to be very easy
  25. Disciplinary action - medication error

    Yes, I would like to know the outcome of this situation as
