  2. None of the colleges around here would have allowed you to take Gen Orgo without having taken Gen Chem -- unless you requested and received special approval or the Gen Orgo is an intro gen...
  3. Do you help other students out?

    A passive-aggressive approach isn't going to work with this person, and you need to define the limitations clearly and NOW before it drags on. Be up front and tell her that you are going to the...
  4. Whoa! Thanks for that tidbit, Moonchild86! The fact that the callbacks are slow or nonexistent puts some tarnish on that shine, for
  5. Can't answer your question about working conditions, other than noticing that the Harris County Sheriff's Office website advert for LVNs has been a constant banner for over a year now. Makes you...
  6. Most of the updated info can be found on the AAMA website. Good
  7. Go ahead and apply -- it can't hurt! A "medical assistant" is nothing more than a job title, and carries no specific certification or education. If a physician or clinic wants to hire someone off...
  8. Certification for Medical Assistant

    Have you checked with the AAMA to verify that you cannot sit for the cert exam? If you have verified that you cannot, then your only other choice is to see if you can sit for the RMA exam (registered...

  10. How many read their BON meeting minutes?

    ALWAYS. It's a glimpse at the inside scoop of what's going on in your state's nursing world. I'm always amazed at what I learn by reading the minutes. Ours here in Texas are published on the BON...

  12. non required supplies

    I am aghast that the "nursing" version of the clipboard on Amazon is PINK. Bright, glaring PINK. The non-nursing versions are white or aluminum. Getting patients and the public to take us seriously...

  18. You put that where????

    Reading that brought a squeal of horror, because I'm betting the orifice in question was not a mouth, ear, or nose, was
  19. Bad idea to quit?

    Concentrate on raising your GPA. It's the one thing most likely to keep you from being accepted. The longer you don't make grades your priority, the harder it will be to bring your GPA up. A&P...

  22. Houston Community College Fall 2014

    Wow. The new NCLEX scores were just posted on the Texas BON website. 66% pass rate for HCC this past year. That's a new low. Actually, many good programs saw their scores fall this time around....
