  1. Houston Community College Fall 2013

    I believe it's 60 or so dollars but don't quote me on that.
  2. Houston Community College Fall 2013

    When I first took my pre-requites at Coleman I found out how expensive parking is. Ever since then it's been the metro for me! You don't really have much choice jb. You could either pay a monthly rate for TMC parking or use any one of the Metro Park ...
  3. Houston Community College Fall 2013

    Wow, that's quite a drive! Good to hear you're planning ahead. I'm so excited to start class!
  4. Houston Community College- Pharmacology in Fall 2012

    Just now? Was it a one year mynursinglab subscription or the edose thing? Which bookstore?
  5. Houston Community College Fall 2013

    We don't have to worry about the background check or anything else until once we're accepted into the program, although some of the shots take a while to get so if anyone hasn't stared them I would highly advise they do so
  6. Houston Community College- Pharmacology in Fall 2012

    She's having us use the etext? That's strange. Why not just read through the book normally. I bought the book without the bundle and will have to buy a mynursinglab pass on the first day of class.

    Wow I thought you had to have all those classes finished before you could take pharmacology. I took micro in the spring and so far it's my favorite class I have taken. Very interesting.

    Welcome to the thread guys. :) I start this Thursday and it's giving me the jitters as well...
  9. People sure do have some nasty opinions about nursing

    My friend used to think like this. That is until his liver exploded in the middle of the night and there were no MD's in sight...
  10. Oldest in cohort...feeling out of place

    Age doesn't matter. I'm usually the only youngin' among my groups and every one else is in their 30's or 40's and we get along great. :)
  11. iMac or MacBook!

  12. iMac or MacBook!

    Are you a wizard? I ask because I just walked out of Microcenter with a touchscreen ASUS. :)
  13. iMac or MacBook!

    I don't pay much attention to brands, I look more at the internals. Although I agree with Fireman767 that Asus is a pretty good brand that keeps their prices low. And if you're merely doing school work then you really don't even have to go over $500....

    I figured. Thanks gelibean. By the way did anyone else get the email from Ms. S***** (lady at the desk, I know we're not supposed to put staff names). So bummed that she is leaving. :/ She was super helpful in my time at Coleman.
  15. Keep calm and pre req on

    If your future classmates are anything like me then they'll be be extra helpful to you. :) We get a lot of Nigerian immigrants at my school and whenever they needed something I was happy to be their go to guy.
  16. What did/do you dissect in A&P lab?

    I'm so jealous. We didn't get to dissect anything in any of my prerequisites. :/
  17. iMac or MacBook!

    I have to admit I went through them the same way. Back when I was a total noob. Want a tip? It's the USER, not the hardware (unless you got some really cheap garbage from a brand like Rosewill.) Either way you're talking software not hardware so th...
  18. iMac or MacBook!

    Hit the nail on the head. The problem is people that go and spend that much money on a laptop will look for excuses in justifying the money they spent. They feel that there is a special type of "techno-magic" involved that only the exorbitantly pric...
  19. iMac or MacBook!

    Mobility is now worth $3000? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834152443 Here you go. Took maybe a minute to find. That has a GTX 670 btw so it's technically a gaming laptop. What does that mean? That a laptop that suits your ne...
  20. iMac or MacBook!

    I hate Macs. They're traps for computer noobs. Just google computer hardware and read for 30 minutes. Just yesterday I built my buddy's beastly PC after moving to his new house. 8-core AMD Bulldozer processor @ 4Ghz, 8 Gigs of Ram, 500 GB SSD, 1TB HD...
  21. Have most of you taken AP with Micro?

    It was one of those classes that was "recommended" instead of required. Poppycock I say! I ended up taking it in between both A&P's and now whenever my nursing friends ask me if they should take it I have to control myself to not scream at them.
  22. Should I get my RN first and then bridge to BSN or should I get my BSN?

    I'm doing the RN-BSN route. I always answer this question the same. If money is not an issue and it is feasible, go directly to a BSN and save the time. Unfortunately it would cost me 4x more to go straight for my BSN.
  23. Can I go to community college and transfer into a BSN program?

    Of course you can! I'm doing an ADN program and then a RN-BSN program as going straight BSN would literally cost 4 times as much where I live. :)
  24. Which of the sciences did you find hardest?

    A&P 1. I stupidly took that course before I took general biology so it was all new to me.
  25. Have most of you taken AP with Micro?

    As long as you've taken general biology then you can take on any of them in pretty much any order. Also, A&PII was probably the easiest science course I had to take.
