  1. Chem teacher

    If you truly feel like this is an extenuating circumstance, and no one in the class is doing well, and I mean, NO ONE. I feel it would behoove you to round up your entire class and as a group 1st let...
  2. UMSON BSN Spring 2014

    I'm applying for the spring as well. Still have to take TEAS and get my recommendation
  3. Summer 2013: Post UR grades, it's finally OVER!!!

    Meeep, Thanks! I am really lucky. I have the most incredible A&P professor. The man lectures like he's performing a well reheorificed ballet. So far A on 1st exam and 2 quizzes! Whoo
  4. Chem teacher

    In this situation you need to just teach yourself from the book. If you learn everything on your own you can do well on the exams. There is only so many chemistry topics to be covered. Don't let a bad...
  5. UMSON SP 2014

    Applying to Entry to Practice BSN for Spring '14. I'm working on my Statement of Goals and Objectives and will be taking the TEAS in 2 weeks. So very thrilled to have made it this
  6. Summer 2013: Post UR grades, it's finally OVER!!!

    I don't finish until mid August. The first 6 weeks I took Developmental Psych and American History, and this second six week that began July 7, I'm taking A&P II! Got A's in both my 1st 6 week...
  7. Really Odd Question

    One of my main draws to nursing in actually traveling. I hope to do a lot of volunteer abroad. I will be honest, I spent a lot of time out of the country as a kid, and those experiences are so much of...
  8. Most Challenging Prereq?

    Math... all maths. Mostly because I found them so
  9. is this doable?

    Also, I'm in A&P II now and find since it's more conceptual it's way easier than A&P I for me. I think for me, it would have made more sense to take A&P II with micro because I find they...
  10. is this doable?

    I took A&P I, Micro, Precalc & a writing class last semester. I did fine. You can do it if you commit to it and put it at the top of your priority
  11. Yes, a&p before micro would have made my life SO much
  12. Prerequisite advice please!

    I would agree that if you're just starting out just take one with a fll course load to test the waters. I did this and found I soar at the sciences and was able to plow through 45 credits in 2013...
  13. Pre A&P I study guide / cards?

    The best advice I can give you is to really bone up on your biology and chemistry. Cell biology and basic understanding of Chem was imperative to doing well in the course I took. There is a book...
  14. Organic Chem

    Luckily, I only have to take one chemistry class for my BSN pre reqs. It's "Intro to inorganic, organic and biochem." From what I understand this class is more of a survey class. We'll be touching on...
  15. need suggestions... laptop or tablet?

    I'm old school in the way of note taking. I take my notes short hand on *gasp* paper! Haha! I find that if I write it down I am more likely to remember it (of course, everyone is different) However,...
  16. Micro and AP2 together?

    I did A&P I and Micro together along with a precalc and english lit class last semester. I did fine, but I did have to put in the time. I'm applying to my BSN program while I'll be finishing up...
  17. How do you accept the fact you might not get in?

    I agree with a lot of the students here. If I don't get in round 1 (spring 2014) I'll take gpa boosters and do more volunteer time. My plan B is to keep working towards plan
  18. Are You A Victim?

    With the 2nd half of the summer semester and fall coming up, I'm bumping this thread! Hope everyone is doing well in their
  19. How do you work around a part you dont understand?

    Yes! Khan Academy, all the way (Thermodynamics part
  20. Micro or a&p201

    Check with the program you're applying to. For me, the BSN program I am applying to next spring requires all science classes to be completed from an in class setting. I"ve already taken Micro and...
  21. Micro biology vs A&P difficulty?

    I took both together last semester. For me I found Micro more challenging in terms of really deeply understanding the subject. For me, A&P left me dying to know more. I found myself studying not...
  22. ADN program or BSN?

    I think it largely depends not only on cost but what the job market is in your area. I know for me, in Baltimore, you can't get hired with an RN in major hospitals anymore. BSN preferred on EVERY job...
  23. AACC (Anne Arundel Communtiy College) Nursing Fall 2013

    Congrats guys! I'm at AACC now doing my pre requisites but transferring to a BSN program (hopefully) in the spring. What an excellent ADN program you guys have the privilege of getting accepted
  24. A- for A&P 1 ok?

    It depends on the program you're applying to. I know for the university I'm applying to they really take into consideration the entire application: essay, overall GPA, pre req GPA, TEAS score, resume,...
  25. My pre reqs will have taken me 4 semesters at 5 courses each. I had to also take Basic Bio and a college level math (and for me the developmental math courses!) to take A&P & Micro. So 2...
