  1. Should I take a refresher chem class?

    BoonersmomRN replied to melpip3's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I haven't taken chem...it's not a pre-req for us although I will probably take it. However our Molecular/Bio class...everything I learned in that chem wise- was the same for A+P 1. It was extremely...

  2. A+P 1 vs. A+P 2

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

    Thanks I guess it really comes down to teachers+ what's involved. See, at my school we did nervous system in A+P 1 ...and I will have cardio/resp in A+P 2. I will have a different instructor as...

  3. A&P Coloring books?

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

    I hear you on the not being able to draw thing. I tried free-handing a humerus the other day...anterior view..with the head at the top and the capitulum/trochlea at the bottom....it looked exactly...

  4. Is Drug Dosage(class) hard?

    BoonersmomRN replied to JGLPN2BE's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    We can't sign up for dosage until we are accepted into our program...and once we do it's literally 3 classes. Then we HAVE to take and PASS the dosage test with a 95% or else we are dropped. It's a...

  5. A&P 1: The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club

    BoonersmomRN replied to Fun2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It's a ton of memorization...but along with that you also have to understand what you are memorizing :) What I do is every day after class I read through the powerpoints and the section of the book...

  6. A&P 1: The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club

    BoonersmomRN replied to Fun2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi Dina My best advice is to stay on top of everything. You are taking it in 6 weeks...which means you are taking the same amount of information in in 1/2 the time as a full semester...that makes my...

  7. A&P 1: The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club

    BoonersmomRN replied to Fun2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wll I am done...BOY am I glad that it's over....*whew* that was a doozy of a test. I think I did pretty OK though. Now we are doing the endocrine system...and we still have skeletal and muscular to...

  8. Mnemonic for cranial nerves

    BoonersmomRN replied to KR's topic in General Students

    I did one for my self...I find mneumonics are only helpful to me if I can relate it to myself or at least put my name in it ( as I have kids...so I am not a virgin...lol...but I am Amy so it helped)...

  9. I can't wait because . . .

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

    I can't wait to start because as soon as I do I will know it's 2 years until I can get a job that I can provide for my kids *on my own*. I also can't wait to start because I love hands on work...not...

  10. A&P 1: The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club

    BoonersmomRN replied to Fun2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My test on the ANS is tomorrow ( and PNS and Special Senses). When we first started the ANS I was sooooo confused on pre-ganglionic/ganglionic/blah blah but it all came together pretty quick! Hope...

  11. A&P Coloring books?

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

    I bought the one by MarieB. I only colored one page and then basically it sat around and collected dust ha ha. So, then I gave it to my kids and they had a blast with...

  12. A&P 1: The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club

    BoonersmomRN replied to Fun2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    CONGRATS FUN! We took our lab quiz today- it was only 5 questions for extra credit and I only got a 3. I reversed one side of the ox coxae (I said right- it was left) because when I looked at the...

  13. A&P 1: The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club

    BoonersmomRN replied to Fun2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    i don't know how deep yours goes. these are the ones we touched on cervical plexus phrenic : motor/sensory to diaphram brachial plexus radial : motor to...

  14. A&P 1: The Spring '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club

    BoonersmomRN replied to Fun2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow congrats! I wish tomorrow was my last day of A+P ha ha ha. We have 1 month left and are having 1 more lab exam ( skeletal/muscle). 2 more lecture tests ( PNS+ANS+Special Senses)+ (...

  15. Is there a specific test needed for admission into Nursing School?

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

    Every school is different. Some programs require the NET test...others the TEAS..and others may have even a different one. Mine requires the TEAS. You only take it once you have applied. Since each...

  16. ANS Parasympathetic/Sympathetic question

    BoonersmomRN posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have to fill out this chart about what happens to each organ.body system when " Pam" is frightened by a gunshot in accords to which division it falls under. My thing is- isn't everything that is...

  17. ANS Parasympathetic/Sympathetic question

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

    Thanks smile! It just threw me..but she *winked* at me when I went to her saying everything should be under sympathetic right ha ha. Then she said you got it! Somehow I have been tagged the " it"...

  18. ANS Parasympathetic/Sympathetic question

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

    By the way I just wanted to thank everyone for their input! I was going nutzo trying to figure out what she wanted...as her email response to me was worded, well, gramatically weird

  19. ANS Parasympathetic/Sympathetic question

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

    Okay everyone....I have the answer :) I just got back from a session with my professor. According to *her* - she's not asking what happens when Pam calms down or acts next( she said that's why she...

  20. I got accepted to ADN program (finally)!

    BoonersmomRN replied to Momto3andNurse2B's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    YAY for you! I hope you celebrate

  21. ANS Parasympathetic/Sympathetic question

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

    That's what I am thinking. Parasympathetic would only come into play if Pam was "startled but then calmed down" ...which would reverse the actions of sympathetic...but all I have here is she's...

  22. ANS Parasympathetic/Sympathetic question

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

    LOL I have no earthly clue! All it says was that Pam was "startled" by the gunshot and therefore explain what will happen to her. Sympathetic will kick in immediately- heartrate will go up,...

  23. Anyone taking A&P 2 in the summer?

    BoonersmomRN replied to betsyMT2003's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
