I just bought my Chem 1 and Micro books from Amazon today :) I'm going to get started on it early this time like I did last spring. Last spring I read the entire Anatomy book and it REALLY helped. I ended up being the 2nd in my Anatomy class of 80ish...

Why do you call it "Obamacare"? Why not call it the Affordable Care Act? :***: From what I've learned, it's only going to be BENEFICIAL! Those involved with primary care are going to get a 10% pay increase, the pay scale for medicaid is increasing, a...

You might want to check out this link on the Kaplan entrance exam (some good tips) https://allnurses.com/kaplan-university-online/kaplan-nursing-entrance-495349.html JUST studying the A & P book sounds really vague, you might want to help narrow ...

Surprising. People where I live can get $10-15 an hour without even needing a certification (as just a caregiver) I'd say put up fliers, check out retirement communities, and other places for work. I heard IHSS isn't much better than what you have (p...

I'm sorry, but you just sounded extremely spoiled. Here your mom is practically letting you live with her for free for two years, paying your rent, your living expenses, buying you food, maybe even cleaning up your house, possibly cooking for you, pr...

Good work! :D I'm going to be taking Micro and Chem 1 together this semester with a GE class (communication req.).

I'd say bring your driver's license ID too (No brainer, right? How else are you supposed to get there?) because they may want to see it before the test. Mine had us all show our ID's and ATI #'s. It was a paper test though, not online. I brought some...

Where I live (California) there is a 3 year wait list/ lottery for the local community college. It's only for an associate's too. That's why I'm hoping to get into the local university for the BSN, which is based off a merit/point system! I've alread...

I think you should stay at home and be more appreciative that you have that opportunity. There are some people out there who don't have a good relationship with their family or have no relationship at all (foster children, ect). Remember, though you ...

Well, if there are only 3 options, and only 1 is going to be from a science professor, then the 2nd letter will be coming from someone not necessarily relating to your major. The most important letter will be from the A & P professor and the othe...

I know someone who got into the physician assistant program from my college. Your posts sound accurate

Why didn't they do a C-Section?? Isn't the point of them is to stop dangerous childbirths?? Sorry, I was browsing and just saw the post here about your cousin, hope they get well. I'm not actually in nursing school YET, but this is something I think ...

That's great!! If I get in for Fall 2013 my Cal Grant will be paying for the two years of tuition in FULL Then I will only have to pay for one semester myself (my program has 3 semesters). You are lucky to get the 4k off! :) There are PLENTY of othe...

Sometimes professors will nicely let you see the letter before they send it in, some will not. Could you ask someone you've already asked for a letter before and then you know they are good recommenders?

The one thing I thought when reading this is that in CALIFORNIA there are PLENTLY of male nurses There are many (or it seems to me) male pre-nursing students and nursing students too. Maybe you should come to California?

Congrats!!! I'm going to be applying this January - March too, but my program lets me take classes up until the summer, so I still have Micro and another Chem to do! So far I have A's also and hope to get it in Micro and the other Chem too :) Then I'...

Why don't you ask all three then choose the best two?

I think longer classes like for the full semester is better if you're taking more than one class and working (esp. 40 hours a week!). It's less intense and better when assignments might overlap the other way. If it's 8 weeks it's almost like a summer...

I'm taking Physiology (at my college they call it that and not A&P2) and so far it's been good except the last lab test. I get my score next week and I hope it's OK and maybe I can get middle to high A's on my next lecture tests and bring it up. ...

The McGraw Hill book is good and very accurate to the actual test's difficulty. I used it and the ATI book (slightly) for an 83.3% after one day of studying..

Hi, I would take the Intro to Psychology first and the Sociology second. If the professor is an "easy A" this helps. The reasons for the "easy A" is might be that he/she is an interesting professor and is easy to understand, engaging everyone in his/...
