  1. Could I please get your thoughts on this case study? I'm having problems with figuring out what more (possibly) could be going on given the information. Thank you! ----------------------------------...
  2. Microbiology - Fall 2005

    We just finished our unknowns this past Friday. It's funny. From looking at the streak plate, then confirming with a gram stain, I knew that my unknown bacteria was Escherichia coli. After doing the...
  3. Anyone have an A in Chem...?

    I got an A in both my chemistry classes and it really wasn't too hard. Though I have to say that these weren't the typical chem classes. They were for nursing. CHM 1020 was general inorganic chemistry...
  4. So really dummied down... In glycolysis glucose is converted into 2 molecules of pyruvate. ATP (net 2) and NADH are also formed. The following is within the mitochondria: Through anaerobic...
  5. Plan B

    Like many said, if I don't get in, then I'll just work wherever, probably take some more classes or repeat ones to get a better grade, and I'll keep applying to schools. At this point of my life there...
  6. Microbiology - Fall 2005

    Has anyone done a slide-mold culture yet? I cultured Rhizopus stolonifer, but forgot to draw a picture of it. Here is a great website that has pictures of several molds/fungus....
  7. Microbiology - Fall 2005

    I think you have to redo the lab experiment. Acid-fast staining is used for detecting the presense of all Mycobacterium. Here's a quote from my lab book: "The acid-fast stain is an important...
  8. Microbiology - Fall 2005

    It's definitely Gram(+). It's (-) for acid-fast. If you want to comfirm my answers, just do a web search. You'll find ample
  9. There are several universities that allow you to finish your prerequisites BY May 2006 and then start the program IN May 2006. Sure that leaves you a week to get settled into the fact that you're...
  10. I guess I should clarify my position. I've already graduated and have my BA. The schools I'm applying for have accerelated nursing programs. I foolishly made the assupstion that people were in the...
  11. I plan on applying to Spring 2006 and Fall 2006 start dates. May applications are due anywhere from November through March. Most or all of my prereqs will be done this semester. I might have to take...
  12. A good school near Ann Arbor Michigan

    MSU definitely has a BSN program, but that seems irrelevent because it seems like you want to stay close to home. As others have said, UM and WCC have degree programs for becoming an RN. Also it your...
  13. Microbiology Lab Question

    Thanks for the links! I had seen those previously when trying to find the answers doing a web search. I had to resort to asking my lab TA what the answer was. Now she knows I didn't create a S....
  14. Microbiology Lab Question

    Has anyone done the capsule stain of bacteria? In my lab we did the capsule stain and I was only able to create a capsule stain slide for Klebsiellla pneumoniae. I did not have time to create a slide...
  15. Microbiology - Fall 2005

    Does anyone know if Staphylococcus epidermidis shows a capsule after under going a capsule stain? If it doesn't, what does the slide look like? A red background with purple cocci bacteria? I already...
  16. Microbiology - Fall 2005

    Bah! I didn't do as well as I wanted to on my micro exam. My fault for not giving myself ample time to learn everything that I need to over 8 stinking chapters. Oh well... Now... Here is a website...
  17. Competitiveness Grades etc

    Apparently at Wayne State University there were around 1,200 applicants for the undergraduate nursing program (non-accelerated). Only 60 people were chosen. A 3.6 was the average GPA. The nursing...
  18. Needing help with a math problem...

    You're completely correct. That is the way that jaysma originally set up the problem, but had the incorrect answer. I just assumed that the math was done incorrectly so I tried to solve it another...
  19. Needing help with a math problem...

    Actually 9*.75 = 6.75 It's asking for 75% of 9. 25% of 9 is 2.25 2.25 + 2.25 + 2.25 = 6.75 + 2.25 = 9 No, I don't think it has to be a whole number. I tried rounding to 7 and also to 6.8, but the...
  20. Needing help with a math problem...

    I'm almost positive that you should have set up the equation like this: 6800(1+.04/9)^9x.75 If N= # of times compounded per year, then the 4% is compounded 9 times. The important part of the question...
  21. Please advise, I am very behind...

    Maybe you're too busy for school at the moment. It might be best for you to drop this semester. What's the point of taking these classes if you're just going to do bad in them and you might have to...
  22. I'm taking 14 credit hours this fall semester. BIO 2200 - Microbiology - 4 BIO 1510 - Basic Life Mechanics(?) - 4 PSY 1010 - Introduction to Psychology - 3 NFS 2210 - Human Nutrition - 3 Not such a...

  24. Microbiology - Fall 2005

    My microbiology class stared 9/7. Our first exam is coming up really soon. In two weeks from tomorrow I think. It's over the first 6 chapters plus 28, 29. I'm not ready... I've been lagging. At least...
  25. Nutrition!!!!!

    The nutrition class that I am taking right now is just like that. We just finished talking about macromolecules and condensation/hydration reactions. Sure the first lecture was really boring, but once...
