  1. Psychology

    wildearth replied to wannabenurse88's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Honestly, I didn't find psychology very hard. It was really interesting to me, so maybe that's why I found it easier to study. Totally doable with a math class,

  2. What did you take Anatomy with

    wildearth replied to iknoweverything's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took A&P 1 in an 8 week format with English 101, Intro to Speech, Psychology, and Painting. This semester I am taking A&P 2 in an accelerated one day a week format with Printmaking,...

  3. Studying Anatomy and Physiology

    wildearth replied to waiting4ivpush's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    ^^ If your school has a study lab, I would make it a point to spend time in there often as well.You can see the models of what you're studying, ask questions, etc., and most of the time the staff...

  4. Studying Anatomy and Physiology

    wildearth replied to waiting4ivpush's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Review your notes every single day. If you can record lectures, take advantage of that in case you miss something in your notes. Make flashcards. Review topics you're currently studying with Khan...

  5. CPM to CNM

    wildearth replied to SwtRainbowbrite's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I had just finished all the requirements and was about to submit for my CPM when I decided to go the CNM route. I decided not to get my CPM credential because I don't honestly see myself starting a...

  6. Future CNM

    wildearth replied to DreamerCNM2b's topic in Certified Nurse-Midwives, CNM

    I second becoming either a lactation consultant/IBCLC or childbirth educator if you don't want to do a year of nursing work. Both are flexible since you can make your own schedule and both provide...

  7. A&P 1 over the summer semester

    wildearth replied to studentih's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took A&P I in an 8 week format last semester, so I had my regular full schedule plus the evening anatomy. It was busy, but definitely doable. I'm not sure how it is at your school, but at mine...

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

    Hey everyone! I am applying to my program this summer for Spring 2016. What classes/entrance exams do you have left? I am currently finishing A&P II and then I will take Micro over the summer to...

  9. Spring Break

    wildearth replied to xoemmylouox's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Spring break has been great so far! Sad it's nearly over. We celebrated my mom's birthday, did some work around the house, and now I'm trying to get back into study mode to get ahead for next

  10. appropriate gift for preceptor.

    wildearth replied to shall62's topic in General Students

    A professional gift is such a great idea! I would've never thought of that! As everyone has said, you'll learn likes/dislikes, but generally coffee never hurts! You could find a cute, big mug and fill...

  11. Morning breakfast...

    wildearth replied to Jen_Loves_Nursing's topic in General Students

    I'm sure someone has mentioned it, but we do egg muffins for busy mornings. We make a week's worth at a time and just pop what we need in the microwave in the morning and go! There are lots of recipes...

  12. Can Psychology relate to nursing?

    wildearth replied to Beautiful_Soul's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Honestly for me, the professional benefits aren't a concern, it's more personal interest driven. I was just mentioning it as a possibility for the OP. I haven't done much research on the potential...

  13. Prereqs - Is A&P That Difficult?

    wildearth replied to nwbsoon's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Reading on here I've seen people say the A&P pairs well with Micro, so that's something to do some more research on. Maybe someone else here can tell you about their experience if they did it. If...

  14. Prereqs - Is A&P That Difficult?

    wildearth replied to nwbsoon's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It depends on what kind of student you are and how much time you need to put into something in order to retain information. For me, I took A&P I in an 8 week session in addition to my normal 12...

  15. Can Psychology relate to nursing?

    wildearth replied to Beautiful_Soul's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I absolutely think psychology relates, and would be helpful. I am planning on pursing my BA/BS in Psychology along with my BSN. Though my ultimate goal is not to provide therapy, I am going into...

  16. Taking A&P 2, micro and, intro to Chem in one semester

    wildearth replied to Mayahajj's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Is it possible to take one class over the summer instead? I would take 2 together, but 3 seems like an unnecessary

  17. A&P 1 lecture or lab? Whats harder?

    wildearth replied to TIffany1579's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Lab was way easier for me. I'm not strictly a visual learner, but it helped things click when I could see them. Lab was more fun too, and the practical exams were

    wildearth replied to stacylethani's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  22. TCC Nursing Pre-Reqs

    wildearth replied to alexis.kattwinkel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Chem and Phed are no longer required as far as I know. All you need to apply are A&P 1 and 2, micro, and be TSI compliant in math. As far as sciences, there are no sciences offered in the Winter...

  23. failing english 101

    wildearth replied to reka2014's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If that many in your class are struggling, it is likely the instructor. Personally, I would drop if your program allows and retake with a new instructor next semester... I always use Rate My Professor...
