  1. Microbiology In Summer

    pmabraham replied to J89Mike's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good day: "The sheer volume of material is far less in Micro than in A&P." Maybe in your school, not in mine. Therefore, please don't make broad sweeping statements; remember most stereotypes are...

  2. Microbiology In Summer

    pmabraham replied to J89Mike's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good day: "There is less content than A&P" I'm finding the level of content to be very comparable with the main difference being less "new" terminology (if you've had AP1, AP2). Thank

  3. How does "online class" work?

    pmabraham replied to bluesky94's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    By the way, for online classes that have no audio/video, you can often find related material on iTunes University or youtube.com to supplement any pure reading

  4. How does "online class" work?

    pmabraham replied to bluesky94's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  7. Teas and Chemistry: Total failure

    pmabraham replied to TEMMY09's topic in HESI Entrance, Exit Exam

    Good day, TEMMY09: Depending on the school, 70% isn't bad. Some schools in our area start accepting with a score of 56% of higher. Did you check what are the TEAS score requirements for the schools...

  8. A & P 1

    pmabraham replied to Jesslogan's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  11. Endocrine System Mind Maps

    pmabraham posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    For those Anatomy and Physiology students studying the endocrine system, these are mind maps I created using iThoughts HD which may be of help to

  12. Endocrine System Mind Maps

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

    You are very welcome. We have an upcoming lecture exam on the endocrine and reproductive system right after spring break (which is this week); so I thought I would learn how to create mind maps which...

  13. Afraid of being jobless

    pmabraham replied to angela82's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good day, angela82: A little fear, stress, anxiety can be a good thing if it helps motivate you. I'm going for an AD RN to start, and from time to time I wonder if there will be a job for me -- (if...

  14. Non-traditional Nursing Hopefuls

    pmabraham replied to BeachsideRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good day, kdmf12: A non traditional student is typically someone in their mid 20's or who otherwise worked out of high school prior to going to college vs. a traditional student as being someone who...

  15. Online Nutrition Class Suggestions

    pmabraham replied to Maxwell892's topic in General Students

    Good day: I would imagine "Non-Semester based" being the hard part; add in a four week online class, and you've made the requirements even more difficult to find one. I'm taking nutrition online now...

  16. A&P 2 in a 8 week summer semester??

    pmabraham replied to J3w3lz88's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good day, J3w3lz88: I'm taking Microbiology and AP2 now in a normal 15/16 week semester (15 weeks given spring break is in the mix); it is doable, but extremely demanding in terms of doing well in...

  18. Online combined anatomy and physiology classes?

    pmabraham replied to RonatCMH's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good day: In so far as I know, the only requirement (no matter the state) is to complete AP1 and AP2 at the same school. Is there a reason why you are seeking to do this online vs. in the classroom?...

  19. What was your favorite topic to study in A&P?

  21. Studied constantly, still got a D on first test.

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

    Good day: "I never understood the can't-record-lectures doctrine some professors like to impose." At the college I'm attending, almost all professors allow students to record; I've only heard of one...

    pmabraham replied to J3w3lz88's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  25. Grades vs Teaching?

    pmabraham replied to vettechtoRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good day: I guess it depends on what you mean by extra credit or tests being easy. I've had two separate science professors who provided extra credit questions on a test. Generally it was no more...
