  1. FINALLY finished with A&P 1! How was your finals week?

    GoodnessFlows replied to dc1994's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Great work! I just finished physiology and child development. I was able to get an A in both! I cried when I saw my physio grade, because I was at a B+ most of the semester. My grade, or A, was...

  2. How did you do this semester?

    GoodnessFlows replied to wildearth's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have 1 final this week and 1 next. For my psych class, I am certain I have an A. My second class is Physio and it has kicked my behind. I am one of those students that is just on the line of a...

  3. I know "it's not a race", but...

    GoodnessFlows replied to RubyRabbit's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It sounds like a big part of you wants to slow down. I say, if there is no real reason to rush, then slow down. I too was faced with the choice last year, and ultimately decided that slow and steady...

  4. How hard is A&P really?

    GoodnessFlows replied to crazyemtchic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think it is different for everybody. Where I live, we take anatomy and physio separately. What makes anatomy tough is the sheer amount of memorization needed to pass the class. I had to commit...

  5. Is the hard work worth it?

    GoodnessFlows replied to StayOrthostatic's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There is always a point during the semester that I ask myself, "Is it worth it?" Usually, it is just as I'm winding down the semester, and I am tired from the sheer volume of work. It can be...

  6. I am so frustrated and anxious how do I study physio?

    GoodnessFlows replied to funsizedprenurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I really like what jmuhammad10 had to say. Also, I am happy to hear that you are meeting with your professor. I am also in physio and it is one of my toughest classes thus far. Have your professor...

  7. Last Prerequisites Next Semester

    GoodnessFlows replied to ShirleyG80's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I say yes, start on those additional *easier* classes for your AA. Now that I've experienced the science(s), I feel like the non-science courses are completely doable! I am getting closer as well....

  8. MATH

    GoodnessFlows replied to mindofmidwifery's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I hired a tutor to get me through algebra. I did a 7 unit intro/intermediate algebra class (I started in pre-algebra prior). It was intense, nearly 8 hours a week. I ended up with an A, and I do...

  9. Failed my first lab exam and I feel discouraged

    GoodnessFlows replied to koalas's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You know why you failed and that is half the battle. Your grade reflected your effort. You were busy and on top of that you were sick. You have to make the decision now to put your head in the game...

  10. How many pre-reqs do you have to go?

    GoodnessFlows replied to studentbear's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Left to take: Chem and

  11. Frustrated Pre Nursing student!!!

    GoodnessFlows replied to ShanaeD's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think the battle of the journey is what makes this whole nursing thing an awesome experience. Just think how you will feel once you've accomplished your goal. If it was easy, everybody would do...

  12. School competition/ what to do?

    GoodnessFlows replied to applekors27's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think most of us feel like it takes a ton of time. It can be frustrating at times, but remember it is a journey. If you truly want this, just keep pushing forward, and remember that you are 1 step...

  13. Best order for science prereqs

    GoodnessFlows replied to thinkingcap's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Option 3. Chem will help you in physiology. I took anatomy first, physio second (our classes are not combined), chem (next semester), and micro last. I am in physio now and the first 5 or so weeks...

  14. Does Anatomy get any easier?

    GoodnessFlows replied to ThatOneDude822's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took anatomy without physio and my most difficult unit was bones and muscles. I felt that it involved an immense amount of memorization, over and above the other units. I did much better with the...

  15. Words of encouragement?

    GoodnessFlows replied to DessyA's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I know it is tough work! This is something that I've started doing that has helped me dramatically with test anxiety. I do my best to prepare for the test far in advance (like you are doing), and...

  16. Anatomy on Crack at my school

    GoodnessFlows replied to CastMemberR's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello! I used to joke with my study partners in Anatomy that I felt like we were on crack :). At my school, they separate Anatomy from Physiology. We did a full 24+ chapters of lecture and lab in...

  17. Aced my first exams!!!

    GoodnessFlows replied to KStudentNurse70's topic in General Students

    Rock Star! Keep it

  18. Do you think nursing programs can benefit from more rigorous prerequisites?

    GoodnessFlows replied to richardgecko's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree. It truly depends where you are applying. I had no clue that some schools have such minimal requirements, and so I would agree they should definitely be more rigorous. A working knowledge...

  19. Do you think nursing programs can benefit from more rigorous prerequisites?

    GoodnessFlows replied to richardgecko's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't understand the big deal about struggling to learn something. I believe we set ourselves up for failure when we believe that concepts should always come easy. How boring is that? The people...

  20. Physiology is TOUGH. Help!

    GoodnessFlows posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am in week 4 of physiology and it is killing me. I thought anatomy was tough, but now I see that it was a cakewalk. My professor, while amazing, does not make it easy either. His goal is to...

  21. Physiology is TOUGH. Help!

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

    I am going to get a recorder for sure and start using it pronto. Also, I am meeting with a tutor tomorrow. I study daily. :) I need to stop the negative self talk. Thank you,

  22. Getting to the gym?????????

    GoodnessFlows replied to hmowry's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yep, since starting school I have gained 10 pounds. I have neglected exercise like the plague, specifically because of school (I study all the time) and I get busy with my kids and husband. I went...

  23. How did you do in A&P?

    GoodnessFlows replied to dc1994's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It sounds like you have an excellent strategy AND you are truly devoting the time needed not only to memorize, but grasp the material. One resource that I love is youtube and I utilize it often when I...

  24. HELP. I plan to major in Nursing but one problem: I don't like science.

    GoodnessFlows replied to loveangie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Have you started any of your science pre-reqs? If you are just a few weeks into your first one, or haven't started yet, I'd say give it a chance. I remember sitting through the first couple of weeks...

  25. Stressed pre-nursing undergrad

    GoodnessFlows replied to student789's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Sorry you are going through so much anxiety. I have my fair share of stress and anxiety when I have to learn something new. You have to accept that there will be times where you feel like you don't...
