3-4 days and longer if it's the weekend.

Thanks - I sent you my email info :-)

Just a question. What happens if you dont pass a class - do you retake it? Just wondering. Hopefully this wont be an issue, but just making sure.

I already have a BA and an AAS - so I am hoping this wont be a long process.

I'm going to be submitting hopefully two tasks in biochem today. So I submit all the assignments for the task in 1 taskstream submission?

I am still waiting on my grade on KOT1. I submitted both tasks this past Saturday.. the waiting part is killing me! I really dont want to start another task on NVT until I know my grade just in case it needs revision.. **really hoping it wont**

It took me 3 days to complete both tasks... it took a lot of researching.. waaaay more than I thought it needed... now just waiting for the results.. ******cross fingers******

I submitted my first task in NVT2 today, working on the other 2. Citing references was the hardest part and the thing I am most nervous about. I have PERRLA which helped in writing the body part of the paper, but it was still difficult entering the information for the references, since I got all of them online. We'll see....

I'm working on nutrition and I feel as if I am not sure of what to study, I am reading every chapter and taking notes based on the book, should i be focusing more on the COS, because I am feeling really lost? Any ideas?

Am preparing to submit the first task in NVT2 tomorrow. Has anyone gotten theirs back yet? The only thing that really had me stuck was the autonomy of the nurse part... not sure I struck it from the right angle.

@angelaRNof4: my student mentor said to go right to the "final tasks" section of CofS. If you don't understand what they are asking, then go back to those areas. Don't worry about doing every task on the CofS unless you are struggling...

I'm still working on biochem, I've turned in 3 tasks and almost done with the 4th task but work has been holding me back the last 2 days! lol I work on the tasks first and do research in the COS for the answer. Its so much reading/listening in the COS that we don't have to know to do the tasks so I'm trying not to waste a bunch of time.
