  1. Edukan's AP II with Dr. Kimmel

    LanaBanana replied to Chipola's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I just finished AP1 through Edukan with Dr. Simmons and the class was horrible. The work itself wasn't hard, but the tests weren't based on anything we did in homework or what you thought would be on...

  2. Phlebotomist Salary Tulsa

    LanaBanana replied to Renee73's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    Renee, try this... If for some reason the link doesn't work, just go to salary.com and put in phlebotomist and tulsa...

  3. Syringe practice?

    LanaBanana replied to BakingMom's topic in LPN to RN

    I was terrified of this last year when I got my phlebotomy certification. Just remember to do anything involving needles (injections or blood draws) quickly. When the needle goes in slow it hurts...

  4. Anyone getting ready for a chemistry final?

    LanaBanana replied to FNPhopeful's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had my final yesterday for Principles of Chem. Got an A on the final, but a B for the class. I'm still happy with that though. I needed 4 more correct answers on the test to have gotten an A for...

  5. 8 Week A&P 1 with Edukan...what do you think?

    LanaBanana replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

    :monkeydance: :mortarboard: I just finished the test for unit 8 and ended up with a solid B for the class! I'm definately going to work for that A in AP2, but I don't know what more I could have...

  6. 8 Week A&P 1 with Edukan...what do you think?

    LanaBanana replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

    If you buy used, just make sure it includes the interactive physiology CD. We didn't use it in AP1, but apparantly we will in AP2. Don't know if you can buy it separate or not. Also the ADAM...

  7. on line classes for generals, are they reallly deep?

    LanaBanana replied to nd deb's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've actually heard it said that online classes take more study time than regular classes. Which if you think about it would be true - in a regular class you spend 3-4 hours a week in lecture, plus...

  8. GPA calculator

    LanaBanana posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hey guys, I was looking at my grades this morning and trying to figure out what my GPA will be after the rest of my grades were posted. Found this website that calculates GPA for you. It's pretty...

  9. Awesome web site to check your prof's out

    LanaBanana replied to RRTtoRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There's always a few people who use the site for revenge, but as long as you take everything that's said with a grain of salt, I think it's got good info. I've used it a lot! I've also tried to post...

  10. Neagtive...responses to my wanting to enter Lpn program..

    LanaBanana replied to wasted-enough-time's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    Don't listen to it! There is no such thing as a "normal" student anymore! There is a lady in my chemistry class this semester who is 45 and just completed her LPN and is now preparing to start the...

  11. 8 Week A&P 1 with Edukan...what do you think?

    LanaBanana replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Yeah! I can't wait to be done with this, but it will have to wait til Friday for me. I did most of the labs, but still have to do some of the "Beyond ADAM" stuff that requires a little research. I...

  12. 8 Week A&P 1 with Edukan...what do you think?

    LanaBanana replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Ditto. I seriously think that I could do as good on the tests if I did absolutely nothing to prepare as I am doing now! But I guess the important thing to remember is the knowledge I'm acquiring,...

  13. should i renew my CNA cert. or not ?

    LanaBanana replied to bambo_O's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I'm curious why you would need to keep the LPN? You'll keep your RN current, right? So why the LPN as well? I have my PBT certification and CNA cert and am starting LPN next week. Do you think...

  14. OMG I feel terrible

    LanaBanana replied to saskenn0910's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Take AP1 first. Usually the first couple of chapters in it lay the groundwork of everything else you will learn for both classes. For example, in my book, the first 4 chapters are: the Human Body -...

  15. Skin Tags :(

    LanaBanana replied to Keepstanding's topic in General Nursing

    They're not fun, but I cut one off myself and had a friend who tied dental floss around hers and yanked. Ouch. Apparantly some people are just prone to them, like warts. My mom has them and so do...

  16. Is my 'plan' advisable by others?

    LanaBanana replied to DountainMew's topic in General Nursing

    I would like to encourage you to check with the school you plan to transfer to. Most of the ones I've looked at have a 5 year cap on the science courses, meaning that they must have been completed...

  17. mumps...to vaccinate or not to vaccinate?

    LanaBanana replied to LanaBanana's topic in General Nursing

    My school told me if I would sign a statement that I'd had them when I was younger that would be enough. I was able to come up with an approximate date for when I had them because my mom wasn't for...

  18. 8 Week A&P 1 with Edukan...what do you think?

    LanaBanana replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Just a reminder that this unit is due on Friday this week instead of Sunday. I didn't realize this until last night! Oops! I'm going to do my labs today and maybe the homework, but then it's...

  19. Is my 'plan' advisable by others?

    LanaBanana replied to DountainMew's topic in General Nursing

    Would it be faster for you to just go straight for the BSN? You're right that most of the prereqs are about the same, but BSN programs usually require statistics and math classes that ASN programs...

  20. TCC RN Class HOURS

    LanaBanana replied to Renee73's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    While it seems like they are being phased out to some extent, I'm still seeing some job openings for LPNs being posted, but from what I've heard form working nurses, even if a job is posted for an RN,...

  21. TCC RN Class HOURS

    LanaBanana replied to Renee73's topic in Oklahoma Nursing

    I'm in principles of chem this semester and there's a lot of girls in there who are nursing majors and they aren't taking chem 1. Princ of chem doesn't require college algebra, If this is the way...

  22. 8 Week A&P 1 with Edukan...what do you think?

    LanaBanana replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Yes, the ADAM lab is bought separately. The ISBN for it is 0-8053-5911-7 and the one for the text is 0-8053-5463-8 (but I'm not sure if this is just the book or the one we need with the interactive...

  23. 8 Week A&P 1 with Edukan...what do you think?

    LanaBanana replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

    I love my yoga class! Even though my class is over for the semester, I'm going to find one to take at my gym. We had to take a pre-fitness assessment and post-fitness assessment. I gained 6cm of back...

  24. mumps...to vaccinate or not to vaccinate?

    LanaBanana replied to LanaBanana's topic in General Nursing

    Does the health dept do titers? I don't have the money to pay for them if they're very

  25. 8 Week A&P 1 with Edukan...what do you think?

    LanaBanana replied to LanaBanana's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Ooooo....sorry to hear about the hand! I fell on mine a few weeks ago and sprained it pretty bad, but thankfully it wasn't broken. It was just rotten timing - this semester 2 of my classes are yoga...
