  1. Fall 2007 nursing school applicants

    Heloisea3 replied to panzyo3's topic in Texas Nursing

    I applied to Tarrant County College in Fort Worth. It is the only school I applied to because it is very close. I hope they send out acceptance letters soon. Time seems to be dragging by, and I keep...

  2. UPDATE: Who is still waiting on 2007 acceptance?

    Heloisea3 replied to justme1972's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  3. Lung Cancer Stigma

    Heloisea3 replied to Jayla's topic in General Nursing

    It's sad that so many people view lung cancer differently than they do other types of cancers or diseases. My grandmother developed lung cancer, and she never smoked a day in her life. She did work in...

  4. Chemistry Professor Meltdown

    Heloisea3 replied to justme1972's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    What a jerk! I would start recording the lectures and labs. If he has a problem with that, let him take it up with his department head. Everytime he talks like this to a person, take the tape to the...

  7. Microbiology before A & P I & II

    Heloisea3 replied to hays2001's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would say go ahead and take the Micro. I took it before A&P I, A&P II, and CHEM. I also took it over a summer session. It was very hard, but doable. If you are able to dedicate quite a bit...

  8. insubordination

    Heloisea3 replied to hhrhrn41's topic in General Nursing

    I don't know if that is considered insubordination by your employer, but it is unprofessional and shows a lack of communication skills. Try taking some deep breaths and think of a different way to...

  11. TEAS study guide?

    Heloisea3 replied to katiem's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Heloisea3 replied to SimplyMeL3's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  15. Help To Interpret TEAS Score

    Heloisea3 replied to Heloisea3's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for the responses. I am just happy to be finished with the test. Hopefully, I will get in regardless of which scores they use. I scored the least on the Math section, so I'm a little nervous...

  17. Relocation from Michigan to Texas

    Heloisea3 replied to Sirena922's topic in Texas Nursing

  20. Did anybody use Elaine Marieb for A&P I and II?

    Heloisea3 replied to Polska's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I used this book for both A&P I and A&P II. I think it is great, but my professor used excellent Powerpoint presentations that we used to study for exams. I really only used the text to...

    Heloisea3 replied to Keepstanding's topic in School

    Heloisea3 replied to amlaboy's topic in Texas Nursing

    I took a Maymester class and it wasn't too bad. I would think it would depend on what you were taking. I know others who have taken minimester classes as well, and they did fine with them. The only...
