Dec 11, 20169 yr Chem Final tomorrow and snow storm approaching. Hoping class is not canceled want to get this over. 200 point exam, 25% of your grade I think.
Dec 11, 20169 yr Author I got my first C, in stats. I'm REALLY bummed and this drops my GPA down. And I had a sit down meeting with my teacher mid-semester and he said that he felt like I was trying hard, so he'd round my grade up - he didn't. I just sent him an email about our conversation, but I doubt it's going to do much good. So 3 A's (A&P, Nutrition and Speech) and a C for this semester. It's my first ever C.
Dec 12, 20169 yr I had my last practical in A&P I today and I earned a 107. She gave us lots of bonus points, which I'm happy to take! Next Sunday, I have my lecture exam and I'M DONE! In other news, my always-homeschooled daughter has decided to go to school! She starts later this week at this tiny progressive school that will be great for her. So this opens up my days quite a bit, which leads me to pose a question to you all! I plan to apply to two nursing programs on the spring - a traditional classroom-based hospital program and a self-study community-college program. I really want to go to the hospital program. It requires an additional nutrition course that the CC program doesn't, and if I took it this semester, it will really help me out later because my schedule will be more open.BUT! What if I don't get into that program and I've spent the money on a class I don't need? As it is, they've already changed their requirements once in the past six years since I started taking pre-reqs and I ended up not needing a class I took. It didn't cost me a fortune out anything, but still.I'm already scheduled to take A&P II next semester, access I think I can handle nutrition, too, since my days will be radically different than they've been for the last eleven years...Thoughts, opinions, suggestions, please?

Your other grades are A's though, that's awesome, you should be proud of yourself. Try not to let that C bring you down. If it makes you feel any better, I'm probably going to end up with a C in microbiology. You seem to do really well in science courses, so I have no doubt you'll ace your next classes.

Even if you take nutrition and don't get into the program, you will most likely need it for a BSN program. It is not useless information and if you can afford it, it wouldn't be a loss. I'd say go for it :)
Dec 12, 20169 yr Omg, my A&P 1 class SUCKED because my instructor could not teach! She read everything off the PowerPoint that was verbatim to the book =almost 60 pages for a 3 hour class and people be falling asleep or just ready to leave. We had about 8 people dropping the class, 9 D''s, 15 C''s, 6 B's, and only 4 A's!!!The only reason I got an A in the class was because she kept curving the lecture exam in which I would have had B''s on all of them. People kept failing them and complain to the Dean. Plus, the final lab exam was horrible!!! She had pictures of the structures of the heart, arteries, and lymphatic system and we're supposed to label them but you couldn't see what the lines were pointing to on the piture since it was so dark and people just started guessing. She had the original picture in the room on 3 sheets of paper for like 38 students and people wasn't passing them back and you only had a certain amount of time to finish both exams.I'm still pissed about how I had to guess on my Lab exam even though I knew them answers. She is the only A&P teacher in my university, so I will have to take her again next spring.
Just thought it might be nice to have people to chat with over the course of this semester!
