  1. What is anatomy and physiology like?

    thanks!
  2. What is anatomy and physiology like?

    I forgot to add, A&P lab was actually very interesting and fun. We had to learn the names of all the bones, processes on the bones, bones that make up the skull, hands, and feet, and all the...
  3. What is anatomy and physiology like?

    My experience with A&P was that each new paragraph built off the one before it. We started off at the cellular level and worked our way up through tissues, then into systems (skeletal, nervous,...
  4. I feel like I'm not going anywhere in Nursing!!!

    To the OP, a 3.6 cumulative GPA in my neck of the woods can get you into most Nursing Schools. Of course, I'm in the Memphis area.... probably does not help you out very much
  5. Not learning A&P

    I took A&P online through McGraw Hill and Lab at the campus. The online program had me answering sooooo many questions every week. I went through every range of emotion imaginable. The good thing...
  6. Learning the Skeletal System

    To add to my above post, it was A&P lab that required me to learn all the bones and muscles. At test times, the instructor placed different bones at stations around the room... we had to rotate...
  7. Learning the Skeletal System

    I had to learn the bones and muscles. There are free websites out there to help you study, just google it. Don't sweat it, it was pretty easy
  8. math help

    Khan Academy is great .... If you don't mind spending about $30, there is a website called Mathway.com . You can enter the question into the program and it shows you step by step how to work the...
  9. A&P

    Thanks for the reply. The whole intended purpose of my post was to provide motivation for anyone who, like myself, was struggling to get through the class. It makes me feel good to get feedback from...
  10. A&P

    Hi, I've read a lot of threads that discuss A&P apprehension during Pre-Reqs. I'm going to post my story and welcome others to do likewise. I hope this thread will serve to motivate anyone who is...
  11. A&P

    Great!!! I'm glad to hear that my post inspired someone else. You are absolutely right, you can do it !!!! Just stay positive and motivated and you will do fine
  12. Feel like giving up on nursing...HELP!

    Sometimes a strategic withdrawal is in order to save your GPA. As for the feelings of not going to make it, you've got to know its normal. You just have to find ways to keep yourself motivated. Also,...
  13. A&P

    Thanks! hope my thread didn't sound like bragging. (even though I'm happy I passed) Just wanted to share and possibly help motivate people who haven't taken A&P yet. Hopefully more people will...
  14. nurse told me prereqs are the hardest part

    I think it depends on whose perspective you are looking at. We all have to run our own race and negotiate all the hurdles ourselves. Some folks are strong out of the gate but get winded near the end...
  15. Struggling pre-req student

    Yes indeed, A&P had me up late many nights trying to get that "A". At times I questioned my sanity, other times I thought about withdrawing, and yet other times I felt the Instructor was giving us...
  16. Only doing nursing for the money

    Hi, I'm a little older than you and may be able to offer a different POV. First, my wife has been a RN for almost 30 years. She has worked on the same floor and for the same hospital ever since...
  17. 30+ club! Lets do this together.

    47... Guess that makes me the grandpa of this thread
  18. Hoping to be accepted

    Sounds like your grades are solid. You can't do better than a 4.0, plus your Teas score is good also. I don't know anything about the program you are applying for, but in my area, those scores will...
  19. Should I take full time classes as a pre-nursing student?

    I agree, cut down on the workload to help get better grades in your science and math
  20. I just wanted to share a quick story. My mom checked into the emergency room on 1/13/13 due to complications stemming from Chemo and Lung Cancer. She passed away three days later in the ICU. The 14th...
  21. A&P 1 Fall 2013

    I actually think as long as you stay on top of it, A&P is not as bad as the hype that proceeds it
  22. A&P 1 Fall 2013

    Hi, I have already had the class but can offer some advice. First thing, don't fall behind!!! Try to set aside time everyday to study and complete assignments. Second thing, each chapter builds off...
  23. Be careful not to let people talk you out of your career ambitions

    The way I see it, Medicine is the one job that remains stable and there will always be a demand for it.... It is also a position that offers promotion and is available all over the country. Honestly,...
  24. Be careful not to let people talk you out of your career ambitions

    Thanks everyone for the comments about Mom. I like to think she may gone physically, but I still feel her presence in my life everyday. She was quite a lady
  25. Be careful not to let people talk you out of your career ambitions

    Very True
