  1. 4 week A&P Course?

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

    I also think 4 weeks is too short. Of course, it may be possible if you go to school minimum 7+ hours a day x5 (probably weekend too), and then go home and study all night. I don't think it is...

  2. HELP.

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

    Nice

  3. Need encouragement!

    GoodnessFlows replied to thatnursingguy03's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Most have a chance to get into nursing school if they are willing to work their behind off. You mentioned you don't have the best track record as far as grades, however what does that mean? Most...

  4. Does anyone else feel this way?

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

    RunBabyRun, you are almost there!! How exciting! :) I understand the house and mom thing as well. I feel feel like I haven't cooked my family a *real* meal in a long time. They are all so...

  5. Does anyone else feel this way?

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

    To answer your question, yes, there are moments when I feel like you. I am a returning student, age 43, and there are day's I question myself. However, I'm a woman of faith, so when I feel like this,...

  6. Alternative majors?! Out of motivation.

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

    If you are in Northern California, have you considered attending a community college? There are several great ADN programs that you may have a better chance of getting into. An ADN is an Associate...

  7. Bones, Articulations, Muscles...Oh my!

    GoodnessFlows posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Please tell me I am NOT alone! I've stopped counting the number of hours I've spent studying. If you are in the thick of your anatomy class, please stand up. :) Good luck to

  8. Feeling Discouraged

    GoodnessFlows replied to RN_Loading1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    OP, excellent advice above. Like some have said, most don't leave class with 100% knowledge. It truly is up to you to go home and fill in the gaps. I probably leave with 60% of what I need to know,...

  9. Bones, Articulations, Muscles...Oh my!

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

    dt70 and pmabraham, AMAZING sites! THANK YOU!! Also, we are very fortunate that our professor offers open lab on Friday's and often times on the weekend for a few hours. We also have a lab outside...

  10. Bones, Articulations, Muscles...Oh my!

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

    I am SO happy to hear that it will get easier once we get these bones down. I too wish I had a bone box at home like we do in lab! I have been using the visible body on-line and it has been helpful....

  11. Nursing pre reqs

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

    I am currently taking anatomy, nutrition and sign language. I study the most for anatomy, often times up to a few hours or several each day, especially as a test is near. We are currently learning...

  12. A and P 1 Help

    GoodnessFlows replied to bamwife06's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I love the suggestions above! I too read the chapter prior to class. I also print my professor's lecture slides and take notes as she lectures. I then come home and study the lecture slides more,...

  13. Better to go to a community college first?

    GoodnessFlows replied to pjb15201's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am also going to a CC. I am loving the experience so far, and appreciate the smaller expense. I am following an educational plan that will cover admission to my school's nursing program, as well...

  14. Nursing Pre Reqs Anatomy & physiology

    GoodnessFlows replied to Bodybuilder1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with meeep! I often come home and youtube whatever I don't understand. I even listen to entire lectures from other professor's as well. You can find just about anything on youtube. Do you...

  15. Having trouble with microscope

    GoodnessFlows replied to kenya1005's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was having the same problem. Start in scanning (4x). Using your rough adjustment knob, rotate the stage up until it stops. Focus using your fine adjustment know. Once your slide is in focus,...

  16. How's the Semester Going?

    GoodnessFlows replied to NurseGirl525's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hello everyone! I think I see a trend in a few of your posts. I too have had a difficult time switching gears since returning from break. I would imagine it is pretty normal the first couple of...

  17. A&P in the summer

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

    Our school offers an A&P summer class. Mind you, this class is NOT the required pre-req for our nursing program, but is an awesome warm up for the required anatomy and physiology (separate...

  18. Can I be a nurse? Advice will be HIGHLY appreciated!! :)

    GoodnessFlows replied to kay_030912's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You can do it! Too often we are quick to say that we can't do math well. I too told myself the same thing. I started in pre-algebra, and worked through beginning algebra, intermediate algebra, and...

  19. About to start nursing school, which pre reqs should I start with?

    GoodnessFlows replied to medical123's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you take remedial math, you can take other non-math pre reqs. For example, you can take math with English and say psychology. I started at pre-algebra and just finished up stats this past...

  20. What guided you to Nursing School?

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

    I thought about being a nurse when I was much younger. I recognized early on how tough nursing could be, and didn't know if I was built to take on the responsibility. Over the years, the urge would...

  21. Bio (Anatomy) and Chem Together

    GoodnessFlows posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I posted this question several weeks ago, and thought I'd try again. At my school, we take anatomy and physiology separately. I am headed towards my spring semester on Monday and I'm slated to take...

  22. Bio (Anatomy) and Chem Together

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

    Hello CDEWannaBe, That is exactly what I am looking into now. I took Anatomy and Speech over last summer and it was tough, but I studied my butt off and received 2 A's. There is something about...

  23. Bio (Anatomy) and Chem Together

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

    Hello! Thank you all for the feedback. As far as chem goes, I am on a *waitlist* for the class, due to a pre-req requirement mix-up during registration. The instructor will more than likely add me,...

  24. 4.0 Challenge!

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

    Technicolourhobo, I noticed you took bio and chem. How was it taking those two classes

  25. Finally Doing IT! My Long Journey...

    GoodnessFlows replied to 42&mytime's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You can do it! I too am 43 and returned to school in 2012, which feels like yesterday, but is actually already 2 years ago. Time flies and that is exactly what I told myself when I was considering...
