  1. A&P 201 or 202

    pmabraham replied to amberdawn85's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with Herrington. Since circulating hormones are delivered via the blood, it would cover several areas directly and indirectly. BTW, I've yet to see a school that uses the same course ID, so...

  6. Muscles easier than bones??

    pmabraham replied to 7237dallas's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good day: I found everything easier after bones because a lot of it was based on the same names or physical locations on the body. For muscles, I found it helpful to learn origin and insertion. For...

    pmabraham replied to Tashie27's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    pmabraham replied to mmcc01's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Good day: Good job, ♫patiently_waiting❤, at working to get an appointment set up with your professor. If you can review the past exams to find out where you went wrong that will also help. Since...

  13. Trying to figure out the best route for nursing.

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

    Good day: For any school, make sure they are fully accredited. I would recommend doing all of your prerequisites at a community or junior college, then transferring to a BSN program. Thank

  14. A&P II Help ..

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

    Good day: Given withdraw is not an option, I would recommend speaking with the professor. Take your notes and the book along. Show him the notes you take, go over how you study, and ask what he...

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

    Good day, krrbrr: I agree with CDEWannaBe; you need to talk with your professor to get their advice. Most professors would probably love to have you make an appointment, show up prepared, and then...

  18. Summer/Fall

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

    Hi: No, I wrote what I meant; I apologize in not understanding you were already in for Life Span as you wrote "I have not begun my life span course yet." In many areas the spring semester has already...

  19. Summer/Fall

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

    Good day: You could probably take Life Span with Chemistry. Thank

  20. A&P & Microbio at the same time...omg

    pmabraham replied to smcki008's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi J3w3lz88: Check if they penalize for withdrawal's (they might not). I just know HACC discourages "W"'s. After looking at HACC's paperwork, let me reword the original statement. They give...

    pmabraham replied to adnstudent44's topic in General Students

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

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

    Good day: Zygote Body is a great, free, resource. Does your school have a model room you can use outside of lab time? I've also found taking pictures, and marking up pictures helps a lot. Thank

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

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

    Good day: Once you get the bones down, muscles, circulatory and the like become easier because you have the foundation from what you've learned with the bones. Thank

  25. A&P & Microbio at the same time...omg

    pmabraham replied to smcki008's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
