I really need some encouragement now...

I am taking pathopysiology this summer along with chemistry in a six week semester.

The problem is that they are both science classes, and additionally I have to take care of my daughter family household etc...

Basically what I'm saying is that I would like to get some positive feedback of others who managed to take both classes in the summer and were still able to accomplish A's on both courses, and what you did to achieve that, meaning studying habits, anything that is related to these classes.

I appreciate anybody with some advise,

Thank you Ginger

did i mention im taking these all at once?? lol....i dont have kids and i dont work but school takes up EVERY second of my day...i am making strait A's though, well so far...lol...i just finished up AP2 and Micro TODAY:) thank goodness...i still have one more quarter of AP to go but atleast I will only have to go to my other pre req school 2ce a week instead of 4 times a week...

i never thought i could handle it...but it seems the more they heap on the more determined I become...i know this sounds cheesy but you really can do anything you set your mind to...you just have to want it enough!

If you want any help in patho I have some great rescources!!!

oh by the way, a note on patho...if you did well in micro and AP you will be fine in patho...AP+micro=pathophys...:) its amazing, since im taking the concurrently i actually notice how much of patho really builds on those two subjects....lucky for me I learned what we covered in patho right after i had learned it in AP and micro...im glad im taking them all at once..it give me a definete advantage over those students in my class who havent had those classes in years!

Thanks ELKMNin06

for your positive feedback, knowing that I should'nt freak out that much about these two classes, it could've been worse.

After I read my own posting again, a couple of days later, I realized that the Nursing program will be even way more harder, so I better get my act together now :p .

Thanks again, you are truly an inspiration for me
