I found A&P I to be full time commitment, and I am not sure I could have taken any other class with it if I had tried. I managed to pull off an A and I need to make A's in all future pre-nursing classes. I am on to A&P II and Micro next semes...

I would love to know the GPA of those who get into the pre-licensure program and then those who go on to the actual nursing program - which I suppose is the BSN. My advisor said they look first at the science GPA and TEAVs score and then the ove...

I just started a chapter on this and I am taking an online class. There is no lecture and I need to find a good lecture and possibly a quizzing site to learn this! Thanks!

I am planning out my schedule for the upcoming semesters. I wanted to take Chemistry before Anatomy and Physiology I & II, however I either need to take A&P I first then chemistry and then A&P II or I have to take chemistry first befor...

I am not sure if I am going to have time to read everything I am suppose to for my micro class. Our teacher has a great system that she set up in masterinmicrobiology.com where we have to complete A LOT of assignments. This is good because our entire...

I have always been an introverted person and I definitely feel shy at party's or in big groups. As I get older, the more I mature, the less shy I have become. However, I also have to say that becoming competent and skilled in a subject matter also he...

That would have made me angry too! However, it says more about those people than it does you and you handled it well! They acted like jerks!

Auditing sounds like a good plan!

I think if you want to know for sure if you want to be a nurse is to find a hospital or volunteer position where you can either shadow a nurse (if it is possible) or be a volunteer and expose yourself to the environment. Also, I would look into other...

All your other science classes will build on chemistry - so it is important. You have to read the material and follow it up with other ways of learning, e.g. videos (youtube), visual learning, etc. What other classes are you taking? Do you have too h...

I too feel that I put a lot more than the "recommended" amount of time for science courses in particular. I think it will pay off in the long run. I am older too, almost 37, so maybe age has affected my ability to learn as quickly - I don't know...so...

Learn to teach yourself and you will be successful! I took online courses for years, and teaching yourself is an extremely valuable tool. Read the book, lecture notes and utilize online videos, youtube, Mastering Biology or whatever study tool goes a...

Honestly, I think you do need to snack more while studying - brain needs glucose - you use more while studying. Just choose a healthy snack option!

I am not in the program yet, but when is the class start date? I am just curious if it follows the same schedule as the the other NCTC classes...I hope so, because the current NCTC calendar matches my son's school calendar wonderfully! Good luck ever...

Do you all start class this Tuesday, August 20th or are you all going to orientation?

Grammar and spelling errors in a medical/professional environment can result in harm to your patient and also give others an understanding of your level of education and/or seriousness and maturity! I took online classes recently where the only comm...

I agree not eating enough will cause weight gain on top of the stress. Then adding the constant (high fructose corn syrup) coke is all a recipe for weight gain. Eating is very important to keep those stress hormones balanced, and eating a balanced di...

Chlorophyll taken regularly or Chlorella, it is an internal deodorizer and very healthy and detoxifying. If you aren't flossing regularly, bacteria gets stuck between the teeth and smell bad. If you haven't flossed in a while, try flossing and then s...

I am a stay at home mom and found that planning isn't enough. There are many times when kids have to stay home from school sick or we get sick, or someone has to go to the doctor, dentist, etc. I started studying ahead of time to help compensate for ...

Just get your A&P I book and study the chapter's on cell biology and chemistry and you will know. That is all you will need.

Wow, that seems like a lot less time. I am glad I chose a regular semester this time...I was getting burned out on the accelerated classes after 2 semesters.

Last semester I took all accelerated 8 week classes at UTA including sociology, biology and A&P I. I wish I had known about NCTC sooner, because I feel I basically wasted my time. Anyway, when I took the accelerated biology and A&P I, I would...

It sounds like you are on the right path by going through the program at your high school! Good luck!

I hope to apply for nursing school in the fall of 2014. If for some reason I do not get accepted, then I would like to find another skilled degree where I can apply recent college credits. There are only 2 nursing programs in my area that are suitabl...

If you haven't had any science is a long while, then I would recommend you take only one science course. I think it would be doable to take A&P I and nutrition together. However, I think it would be tough to take 2 major science (e.g. A&P I a...
