  1. Should have started sooner

    Trenata replied to future_nurse215's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It seems that average age to begin nursing is older. I am beginning my prereqs at 36. I can't tell you how many times I have seen the post on Allnurses, asking "Am I too

  2. Studying for science classes.

    Trenata replied to kingvonnBSN2017's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    In science, you need to read to understand, then memorize and then apply. You just have to buckle down and do it. If you don't have good study skills, then summer A&P may NOT be the best idea -...

  3. Am I alone Natropathic beleifs...

    Trenata replied to kplp1111's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That is a good question, I am not sure about that. Actually I did a very, very quick Google search, and there is a possibility it sheds. I guess you wouldn't be able to use it if you are going into...

    Trenata replied to kplp1111's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It is a live virus. However, it has been a while since a looked up the details, I think it is a partial (part) of the virus. It may cause you to get slightly

  5. I will never be a nurse. Should I just change my major?

    Trenata replied to Jaurelus93's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You have a chance. No need to give up. With your grades, there is a way! I had 2 or 3 C's and managed a 3.4 GPA, which I am hoping to bring up with my science courses. Even if I don't, I plan to study...

  6. Am I alone Natropathic beleifs...

    Trenata replied to kplp1111's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I have been holistic minded for many years and was repelled by the idea of becoming a nurse for a long time. I always use vitamins, herbs, homeopathy, food and the book Smart Medicine for Healthier...

    Trenata replied to futureexpectations's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    Violach - the labs and quizzes are super easy becuz they are open book. The exams on the other hand are

  8. UTA Fall 2013

    Trenata replied to futureexpectations's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    Hey Don, This is one of the reasons I do not plan to go to UTA for nursing school, just prereqs because they are online. I plan to apply to 2 year nursing schools, because I study a lot already. I...

  9. UTA Fall 2013

    Trenata replied to futureexpectations's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    I would love to know how you all managed a 4.0 science GPA. I made in A in Biology and now I am studying my rear end off to get a B in A&P I. I am taking my 2nd exam tomorrow and lab practical. So...

  10. Taking A&P during the summer... With a 3 week old!

    Trenata replied to Taylor1432's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There is no way I could have done it esp. over the summer with a newborn!!! A&P is a full time commitment even outside of class. A newborn is an all encompassing and overwhelming person who is...

  11. Take micro with anatomy, or with physiology?

    Trenata replied to space monster's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Dbohr - I am not a young kid at home with parents paying for my education. I AM the mom with a young child and I took biology, A&P I, and sociology this semester. Next Fall and Spring, I am taking...

  12. Take micro with anatomy, or with physiology?

    Trenata replied to space monster's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't know...it seems so strange to me to have A&P separated, but I know many schools do. I think you would want a strong foundation in anatomy before taking physio, however I have also found...

  13. A&P lecture part online? Good idea, bad idea?

    Trenata replied to HeatherMax's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I love online and do all my studies that way including A&P. Fortunately, I get my profs lecture material too. I love it because I can be home with my child if he is home from school sick as he has...

  14. what else can i do to be a competitive apllicant?

    Trenata replied to jess1029's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    First of all good luck in your endeavor! Maybe you were typing on a phone when you sent this message, however I think it is extremely important to have good grammar, sentence structure, and spelling...

  15. More A& P questions....

    Trenata replied to HeatherMax's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had the same question before I started A&P. There is a little chem in the beginning but basic easy material. If you can pick up your A&P book ahead of time or a cliff notes style book for...

  17. Biochemistry pre-req

    Trenata replied to XmasShopperRN's topic in Western Governors University

    Well that is a relief to hear that Nutrition is easy. I saw all the classes WGU requires in the first 6 months and I was really

  18. So sick of A&P

    Trenata replied to Pulley's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I can see that to be true, that we are given massive amounts of info to see if we can handle this type of learning before nursing school. Sometimes I feel really frustrated by it, but other times I...

  19. So sick of A&P

    Trenata replied to Pulley's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I know what you mean. My Prof likes to ask some of the most tricky questions. It is really frustrating

  20. Biochemistry pre-req

    Trenata replied to XmasShopperRN's topic in Western Governors University

    Skoolrn are you taking them at WGU? If you took Nutrition at WGU, what did you think - I took it at a local community college but they won't accept it because nutrition has to be taken at WGU (FYI,...

  21. Microbiology 2460 - 3/25/13 start date - anyone taking this?

    Trenata replied to flyingauntmimi's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    Is there more than one Micro professor for the online class - I am taking it next Fall? I am feeling like my A&P prof is a very nice, knowledgeable, and helpful professor but that she does try to...

  22. Books I should read before school starts?

    Trenata replied to healthy12's topic in General Students

    I am not in nursing school yet, but one thing I have seen mentioned over and over here on Allnurses is critical thinking skills. My plan once I get accepted is to read through and NCLEX-RN book to...

    Trenata replied to fbanh's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Agreed!

  24. Is it right to pursue nursing if the school is 2 hrs away from husband & kids?

    Trenata replied to fbanh's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This is something I would not personally do. If it were me, I think I would do everything in my power to find a way to be accepted into a school more locally unless my family was willing to move with...
