  1. Do you need to know all the markings on the bones?

    BoonersmomRN replied to Newbie Nurse SMP's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I bought one and I never used it- I gave it to my kids eventually as a coloring book. It was my own stupid fault though..I am NOT a visual learner...so I don't know why I bought the dang

    BoonersmomRN replied to Ariel70113's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  5. Tips for microscope?

    BoonersmomRN replied to Irene joy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi You were using oil immersion microscopy, right? On the highest power? With the stage up all the way and the slide just touching the magnifier? Just making sure those steps were done...then I have...

  6. Which is harder A&PI or A&PII?

    BoonersmomRN replied to SoulShine75's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It's so funny...I asked this same question before the summer. However, now that I have done both...I think A+P 1 was harder than A+P 2. A+P 1 was a TON more memorizing to me. It also was kind of a...

  8. Microbiology - Fall 2005

    BoonersmomRN replied to maliat's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Each of our lab tests is worth 100% but out of a different total amount of points. Like today's was a 60 pt test so a 60/60 was a 100%. The first one was 48 and the second one was 38. We have 6...

  9. TEAS Test?

    BoonersmomRN replied to Krystal_loves_babies's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took it last month - I didn't think it was all that bad at all. If you get the study guide the test is pretty much exactly like it. It's timed but ours was done in absolute silence and we got...

    BoonersmomRN replied to amber74's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  14. Microbiology - Fall 2005

    BoonersmomRN replied to maliat's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    For me it's lecture. I LOVE lab. Our lecture is just realllly slow and boring. On Tuesday I played Tetris behind my book while he droned on for 45 minutes about viruses and then said " but you...

  16. Microbiology - Fall 2005

    BoonersmomRN replied to maliat's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  19. Test of Essential Academic Skills?

    BoonersmomRN replied to tanner523's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took it about a month ago. It's not that bad. The study guide will give you a really good idea of what it is like ( although the study guide had an A+P section and there was only *1* A+P question on...
