    How is everyone doing in AP 1?
  2. Microbiology Fall 2013!!!

    So it seems like Micro isn't going to kill me too badly, and I actually kind of love it. Granted, studying for an exam really sick doesn't work so well for me.. lol. However, my instructor loves...
  3. Question about testing days

    For my program we're allowed to take the test once in Fall, and once in Spring. However, for me I'll only have AP 1, and Micro completed by the latest Fall testing date(I'm currently in the classes...

  7. Do you read all the text for science classes?

  17. So many nursing majors in my class!

    Yeah, it kind of terrifies me the amount of students all competing for the same spots. Like, in my AP and Micro classes..it's horrible. There's about 40 of us, and it seems like 95% are all pre...
