    hmowry replied to Pr0spectiveRN's topic in School, College Programs

    I am on the alternate list - #5. Sooooo 5 people need to

  2. Any former State College of Florida/SCF/MCC/Manatee Community College students?

    hmowry replied to Pr0spectiveRN's topic in School, College Programs

    Thanks! My husband thinks I'm crazy to worry. But, of course I'm terrified. SCF gives NO information on how many people they take and what their standards are. Good luck to

  3. Any former State College of Florida/SCF/MCC/Manatee Community College students?

    hmowry replied to Pr0spectiveRN's topic in School, College Programs

    Oh, and I'm totally with you on wishing I knew what this was going to involve. No one seems able to explain what nursing school really involves. Even my friend who is in her last 13 weeks. She just...

    hmowry replied to Pr0spectiveRN's topic in School, College Programs

    I haven't been able to go to any of the info sessions. I work during those hours and my boss has no idea I'm hoping to quit soon to go to school. :) How disappointing that you had to turn it down...

    Do you know for sure you're starting in the spring? I applied and I'm waiting for the October 23 email. Do you know something I don't? I'm dying with this wait!

  6. SCF SPRING 2015

    hmowry replied to temmymano's topic in Florida Nursing

    I know this thread is a year old, but can anyone tell me what the application entails? It's not up until September 1st and I'm curious if I will need a letter of recommendation or to write a personal...

  7. A&P - Overwhelmed by neural tissue

    hmowry posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Please tell me I'm not the only one who is completely overwhelmed by neural tissue. I'm doing really well in A&P, but suddenly I'm so stressed out I can't take it. We just finished muscle tissue...

  8. I only held his hand

    hmowry replied to motay68's topic in General Students

    I've been in that man's position and a nurse was my angel. She is the reason I am becoming a nurse now. You changed that man's life. Bless

  9. A&P - Overwhelmed by neural tissue

    hmowry replied to hmowry's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm with you. The sheer amount of vocabulary is daunting. I just keep hoping if I focus on the big picture, the little pieces will make more sense.

  10. A&P - Overwhelmed by neural tissue

    hmowry replied to hmowry's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes! There's only one nursing school in my area and it's supposed to be very competitive. I've read that if you don't have all A's in your prereqs you can't get in. Most of the people in my class...

  11. A&P - Overwhelmed by neural tissue

    hmowry replied to hmowry's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thank you! I just needed to hear I'm not

  12. A&P -- just have to share my excitement!

    hmowry replied to dc1994's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Oh, the muscles. We just started on that last week. I'm not so scared of memorizing them (I did fine memorizing the bones and bone markings), but the physiology. OMG. Just looking at my book right...

  13. SCF SPRING 2015

    hmowry replied to temmymano's topic in Florida Nursing

    @temmymano - I'm working my butt off in A&P I and I find it fascinating. It's SO hard, but so far I have an A. Is A&P II more on the physiology side? We just started muscles, and it's so...

  14. (affordable) A&P Body Model?

    hmowry posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    We just started in on the skeletal systems, with a practical next week, and will start muscles right after that. For the skull bones I was able to find an awesome little skull model (even my...

  15. SCF SPRING 2015

    hmowry replied to temmymano's topic in Florida Nursing

    I can't apply until next spring (for Fall of 15) but I keep searching these boards hoping for an idea of what type of GPA I have to have to get in! I'm in A&P I right now and with working full...

  16. Getting to the gym?????????

    hmowry posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm working full time, have 2 small children and a husband who is very supportive, but can't do everything himself, and am currently taking A&P 1 and will be adding a Psych class to that next...

  17. Getting to the gym?????????

    hmowry replied to hmowry's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    These are all good ideas. I used to run, but I've injured my back, so I'm having to back off of that (which, as any runner will tell you, is NOT easy to do!!). But I found a flashcard app that will...

  18. Back To School Supplies :-)

    hmowry posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm starting my A&P class next Monday and haven't been in school for (ahem) a number of years. I'm taking my Kindergartner back to school shopping this weekend and I realized I probably need a...

    hmowry replied to hmowry's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Wow - thanks everyone! My daughter thinks it's way cool that we both start new schools on the same

  20. Rent or Buy A&P Texts?

    hmowry posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've seen a million rent vs. buy threads on this website, but they all seem to be about actual nursing texts. What about the pre-reqs? Specifically A&P. I'll be starting that one in the fall...

  21. Rent or Buy A&P Texts?

    hmowry replied to hmowry's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Sounds like I got my answer! Thanks

  22. If you need to brush up "pre-pre-reqs"

    hmowry posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just wanted to put out there that I have been using the MIT OLI Bio 101 course online to brush up on my biology before I start in on A&P this fall. It's free and it's been very helpful. My...

  23. If you need to brush up "pre-pre-reqs"

    hmowry replied to hmowry's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm actually using the Carnegie Mellon one. I messed up my original post. It's at https://oli.cmu.edu/ just search biology here's the link to the MIT open learning, which also looks good MIT...
