   If you're on Facebook, there's a very helpful group on there. Look for Ohio University RN to BSN academic outreach.

   PersistentNS replied to PersistentNS's topic in Ohio University

   ABD Mommy... Have you looked at your DAR report? It should tell you if you need any additional classes. I had a whole bunch of classes that transferred over so I only need statistics and a writing course in addition to the nursing classes.

   If you want some online help, Khan Academy has basic skills sections. There are step by step video lessons and tests to see how much you've learned. It might be helpful to see how they do things.

6. Stressed/Overwhelmed & school hasnt begun

   PersistentNS replied to IsabellaGrace's topic in General Students

   I felt the same way. My first day was on 8/28. A week before, we had a pharmacology math workshop. They gave us our syllabus package on that day. It must have been over 100 pages. We also got our first assignments that were due on the first day of cl...

   PersistentNS replied to penny186's topic in General Students

   A&P is a tough course. My professor used to post the outlines and power points for the sections that we were covering. I would print out everything, go over them and then takes notes on them as he was lecturing. I would also record the lecture (w...

8. Honestly, what do you think?

   PersistentNS replied to cee cee g's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I think Pathophysiology would be helpful. It was highly recommended to take Pharmacology. I'll be starting my nursing classes in two weeks and that's what the upper level students are telling me.

10. Which textbooks should I purchase or rent?

    PersistentNS replied to jhsu54's topic in General Students

    Try alibris.com. Many times if the latest edition is a couple years old, they'll have new and international edition for half the price they have on Amazon. I got my Fundamentals book for less than $50 brand new. It had the DVD and code too. If they d...

    PersistentNS replied to andendeavor's topic in Pre-Nursing

    For physiology, get the Interactive Physiology DVD... It's really helpful. There are a bunch of youtube stuff that's are also good resources.

13. Who else doesn't have or need nutrition class as their pre req?

    PersistentNS replied to Studyhardpls's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I think most BSN programs ask for it. Some ADN programs do too but depends on which school. I'm in an ADN program in PA that doesn't require it but I took it anyway.

    I use my iPad for everything... Recording lectures, viewing powerpoints and diagrams. I even have some textbooks on there. It saves me from carrying around a mess of books and papers.Everything I need is on my iPad wherever I go.

    PersistentNS replied to dsf43's topic in General Students

    Wow... I thought this site's purpose was to find support but that those first few replies to the OP were harsh. Great going guys... You should be proud of squashing people's excitement. In any case, to the OP... I love my iPad for school! I learned ...
