    What classes are you taking? Fall 2016

    I hope you all have a great
  2. Great advice,
  3. The thought of caring for adults makes you sick? Yikes. I'm still pre-nursing. I think I might want to work in the ER, but I'm keeping an open mind, because while the idea of something sounds...

    Failing Anatomy and Physiology

    Talk to your teacher. Work with her/him to figure out if you can make the grade you need, and what you have to do to accomplish your goal. That's what they're there

    Please Help!!!

    I'd worry about my pre-requisites first. Most nursing programs (in my area at least) don't give a hoot about your high school GPA. College-level course work is the only thing that matters. And your...

    Very Condescending Tech?

    I'm sorry she makes you feel that way - the only thing I can offer is this: you can't control how other people behave, only how you react to them. You can control how she makes you feel. Don't let...

    Nursing Admissions: A Frustrated Student's Manifesto

    Instead of hand-ringing over this school and their policies, find another school to apply to and move

    What classes are you taking? Fall 2016

    After the lecture we had, I feel like it's going to be much, much easier than the skeletal system for me, which is a relief! My skeletal system lab exam got me a 75 - ouch. Nutrition test tomorrow,...

    Do I need this class?

    You need to check with the nursing school(s) you plan to apply to. None of the programs around here require anything that advanced. Here it's algebra and

    The skeleton test

    I got nothing. I had THE hardest time studying for that test - I just got my grade today and it was a 75. That's really low for me. Looking a photo taught me nothing, and aside from living in the lab,...

    Is it worth it now or should i wait?

    I would switch now. There's no reason to get a degree you're not interested in using. It would be a waste of time and

    Should I drop out of AP1...

    How many more tests do you have? How are these weighted? It should be on your syllabus. I'd sit down and have a talk with your teacher about what it would take to get the grade you want, and make a...

    Taking anatomy I and anatomy II at the same time

    My college won't allow A&P I and II to be taken at once. I is a pre-req for II. So maybe you should look into if it's even allowed. Is there a reason you can't take them back to back? That said,...

    What classes are you taking? Fall 2016

    Here's a link to the curriculum, Curriculum - it's super expensive, I got it used which is probably ethically questionable, but I just couldn't swallow the cost. After using it, it's totally worth it....

    How far out from applying are you?

    I think this was addressed to me. My next semester is: A&P II Micro Bio Organic Chem Government And final semester: World Religions Architecture Government II Medical Terminology (maybe, I need...

    What classes are you taking? Fall 2016

    No, I don't work. I don't think I could manage all three. We use Oak Meadow for my oldest (11), which is pretty independent once you hit 5th grade. We use the computer program Time4Learning for my...

    What classes are you taking? Fall 2016

    I'm a homeschooler, too! I'm so nervous about getting that lab exam grade. I'm pretty sure I did terribly. My lecture grade was bumped up to a 95 though - maybe that will help some. We're starting...

    How far out from applying are you?

    I also have two more semesters after this one, which means I'll be submitting my application next summer for a Spring 2018

    Bullied by a colleague

    None of this makes any sense. You're in a position of authority and someone yelled at you - why is it still going on? Why has this not been addressed with more thoroughly your superior? Why did you...

    Is age an advantage or disadvantage for nursing school?

    I don't think age matters much either

    misconceptions about nursing pay

    I researched pay in my area before deciding on my major. I assumed most people did the
