  5. In a hole...what's the best way out?

    Keep in mind that a lot of schools have very different admission requirements. Some take your cumulative GPA, while others only count the GPA for the courses in their program. However, as HouTx mentioned the accelerated programs are quite different. ...
  6. Best classes to take online

    I tried to take the classes I could online since my school is an hour drive from my house. I did take Statistics online and although I struggled in the beginning, it got better as time went on and I ended up getting a 4.0. Sociology (or anthropology)...

  8. Procrasinating with studying

    I have pretty much always struggled with procrastination, but have learned some ways over time to overcome it. The first thing I always have to ask myself when I realize I'm procrastinating is... "what am I doing in place of what I SHOULD be doing?"...

  15. A&P 1 help

    Have you tried speaking with your professor? You'd be surprised how much it helps to have a little guidance. Knowing what you should be focusing on for your studies such as maybe some of the test questions are variations from homework? Quizzes? Revie...
  16. Histology!!

    Histology was really hard for me in the beginning too, make sure to ask your instructor he/she would allow you to take pictures of the slides. That is what has helped me the most so far (in A&P II now)! It's a little tricky trying to figure out h...
  17. About to start my online Stats course. Any advice?

    Along with the suggestion of khan academy, make sure you do a thorough search on youtube as well! Sometimes you have to play with the wording a bit to get the result you're looking for, but it saved me a lot of time by searching for what I wanted to ...
  18. Washington CNA law

    Since no one else has posted yet I'll at least post what I do know. I have personally never heard of a CNA II in WA state, however there are a few separate certifications that are available after you have obtained your CNA in WA. There is a Nurse Del...

  20. Ft. Lewis programs

    If you live on base, Centralia College would probably be too far to drive. We live off base in Yelm which is about 45 mins from Centralia College. DH works on base and it takes him about 30 mins to get to work each day. Pierce College is probably goi...
  21. Ft. Lewis programs

    Hi dijan, here is a link to all of the approved programs in WA state. There are quite a few choices in your area, it will just depend on the pre-req's you've completed and your grades as to which schools you should apply to. Tacoma CC and South Puget...
  22. Just having a sentimental moment...

    awesome job!!!! I completely understand what you mean as I'm also nearing the end of this chapter of my story! After this quarter I'll have A&P II, Sociology, and Microbiology left! It seems so strange, because when I started I felt like it was g...
  23. Prerequisites and Washington state

    I would check with your schools bookstore to see what they recommend. Depending on the instructors preference and the manual they advise you to purchase for the class it can vary at each school. Our teacher wanted us to have a TI 84 Plus calculator, ...
  24. Centralia Community College

    I sent you a PM :)
  25. Centralia Community College

    hey sgarcia14, how are your pre-req's going so far? We're about halfway through the quarter, thank goodness! A&P has been pretty rough, but so far I have a 94 in the class. Hoping I can pull it up to a 96 before the end (which I think is still po...
