Personally, I don't think you should be taken the class online and in such a short duration. From my time being in the class (I was cut short because of surgery) it was a lot of drill run. The main class itself wouldn't be too hard, but the labs were often the hardest. Since you're in the class already, I'd recommend lumping each together. Take 2 or 3 hours each day to study the class and extra to study lab. For me, the hardest was the skeleton. The hardest part here is that you don't have a physical one to see, so I'd suggest buying one. Play with it, feel each notch. I broke it up into pieces that way. Muscles are easier by the fact you need just description. Memorize the location by reading it and matching it on the body, for example. I can't say more since I had to leave by the heart, but all I can say is that I applaud you for doing this online

I'm nervous right now. I don't know if I'll get into clinicals. Since the point system has changed vastly, I wanted to know how hard is it to get in?

Yeah! That's the spirit. Having that sort makes it easier definitely. I was terrified about this until I got dogs and sick. Body fluids aren't bad if you get puked on every car ride by a puppy. If you get sick, poop and per aren't that bad either.

Looking back, I worded it ****** (pun intended). I tried to beat my computer before it crashed again. Anyway: I'm not saying I can't touch it (because believe me, when you get sick as frequently, **** is NOT a scary substance to see.) How do you go about it without getting sick? Just double down on gloves? Or?

Hi, I'm new to the forums! I am a pre-nurse, which means I'm getting my prerequisites out. I'm aiming to get into the Nursing Program by Fall of 2017, if not, even sooner than that! (I didn't take Chemistry in HS due to disability hitting me the senior year. I might get in sooner if I can manage to get into the summer program for 2017) Someone suggested that it would be best to pay for a CNA course outside of the program, and then work as a CNA because many places pay tuition to go higher and for hospital experience. I'm not sure if its wise to, so I wanted more opinions on it. Plus, I'm a little worried about being a CNA because I can't touch poop at all. Mainly because I have IBD and I can't tell whether the difference between being sick from my immune system or being sick from an outside source.
