  1. Drexel ACE Fall 2016

    I just got accepted! I am elated.
  2. Grades are in! How did you do?

    A in A&P 2. Congratulations to everyone, as
  3. Lasalle Achieve 2016

    How is everyone doing? My application is complete and I just took the nln on Friday. 154
  4. Overwhelmed by Prerequisites

    I'm going into my last prerequisite in the spring and it's taken me almost two years from start to finish. It's overwhelming, yes, but take it one class at a time. I chipped away at them and now I am...
  5. What classes did you take with A&P?

    I took it alone. I work full time and I knew I wouldn't be able to handle it with another course on top of my job. Honestly, some people have the ability to take two or three course and do well. I...
  6. Desire to be a nurse, is it to late?

    28 years old is nowhere near old, so no, you're not too late. Plenty of people on this site started a nursing career in their 40s, 50s, and beyond. I would look into the program requirements in your...
  7. I started May 2014 and will be done May 2016...hopefully with a conditional acceptance. I work full time and didn't feel comfortable taking two classes at a time... And it was the right decision for...
  8. I didn't take any sciences (at least not Bio or Chem) in high school, either. I had an average, not impressive 3.2 in undergrad. I didn't think about science or math being anything I'd enjoy or...
  9. I would agree with your advisor and take Chem before Anatomy 1. Personally, it helped me tremendously in understanding some of the chapters covered. My Anatomy class did a lightning quick review of...
  10. On Being Blunt....or Nice....

    I have the same issues. I come on strong and definitely present as knowledgeable, but I don't want to get stuck in a cycle where I'm helping them more than I help myself. I'm hoping honesty is the...
  11. When did you know you wanted to be a nurse?

    It's been a few years coming. I should have listened to the signs. I was in undergrad for Psychology and I bumped into a nursing supervisor when I was working retail. She saw me and we got to...
  12. Should I make a stink about this?

    All I really saw in your posts was an intense defensiveness and you flexing for no reason. I understand being frustrated, and I've been there many times while taking courses to get into a nursing...
  13. Is A&P 2 more difficult than A&P 1?

    Depends on what you prefer. I think two is more difficult than one... Probably because of the way my professor presents the
  14. Not Naturally Smart

    Congratulations! I knew you'd be just fine. As for muscles, I liked to pretend I was working out to learn the muscles. Flex your arms. What is flexing, what is relaxing? Now squat. What is flexing,...
  15. Dissection Lab Reaction?

    The smell of the preservatives definitely does not
  16. Chemistry

    Never took Chem in high school. Did just fine in Chem in
  17. Not Naturally Smart

    I felt that way in Nutrition, which was the hardest class I've taken to get into a nursing program. Seriously, her workload was insane for a seven week course. I got a B on the first exam and was so...
  18. Self-paced online nutrition class?

    I'm glad you took it the right way... Sometimes my delivery is a bit short,
  19. Self-paced online nutrition class?

    I don't know about anyone else, but my Nutrition class was the most rigorous class I had... And I took Anatomy prior! I do believe my professor was really tough, though, so take that into account. I...
  20. Not Naturally Smart

    Comparison is the thief of joy. You worked hard for your grades. You got accepted into a program as a result of your hard work. You seem like you will continue to bust orifice in order to succeed. It...
  21. As said above, you need to be able to convert between metric as well as imperial units. You'll probably be able to use a calculator, but you'll still need to understand the concepts... It's not too...
  22. Bad professor?

    My Anatomy 1 professor was atrocious. You could tell he's had one too many students not care and he got sloppy over the years. His tests were xeroxed to hell and were inverted, blurry, ancient, or all...
  23. Is this possible?

    In Philadelphia, most schools make AP1 a prerequisite for

    When are people
  25. STUDY? HOW?!!!

    What works for me (I work 40 hours a week and take night class) is to begin reading before the semester. I know it sounds excessive, but it works for me... Think about it. You skim the first few...
