I am taking elementary algebra, Intro to philosophy and english. I hate the philosophy class. I am doing online and he wants us to post to the discussion board 4-5 a week. Being a single mom with three kids I need to print the syllabus and work.

I am stressed right now, I'm done with all my pre-nursing prerequesites, to enter a nursing program by next fall. I am taking classes for my ADN right now and preparing for the RN entrance test. I am currently enrolled in Speech 101 and Socialogy 1. In my Socialogy class I already had one test already, and Thursday I have another one. I am preparing for a class presentation the week after next weekin Socialogy. I am giving a class presentation on Disaster Prepareness. I have two guess speakers coming in from the LAFD. I choosed the classroom presentation over a research paper.

I loved Nutrition too, I loved when we had to bring a item to class that represeted a goodsource in insolible
+fiber and lower your cholesterol. I brought a display box of Honey Nut Cheerios.

joliver, i just wanted to say that from what i've heard, that's what A & P feels like, everybody gets overwhelmed with the volume of information! where i'm going, pre-nursing students can't take it except for summer school because all the spots are taken by other health students. i don't know if it could take it in the summer, but also don't want to juggle that with nursing courses. i know what you mean about the coping skills, i'm 47 and just starting this after a divorce, and just praying the brain cells still work. good luck!

pacagal - are you taking the Nurse Entrance Test or a different one? If you are taking the official NET then you want to get a very small study guide called 'Study Guide for the NET, the HOBIT and the HELP" or something like that. It is the only study guide specific for this test.

If you are taking a different nursing school entrance exam, then you should pick up on of the more general study guides for "Nursing School Entrance Exams" published by Kaplan, etc. Good luck :)

YES iT WAS VERY HIGH IN INSOLIABLE FIBER. Lower your LDH. We want that HDL to be raised, Good Cholesterol!!! We had to show her the box or item that showed the imformation on the front and back, and we had to follow her outline, you know total amount of fat, etc. the carb, and protein mutiplied by 2,4.7 etc.

I'm taking Anatomy and Physiology 1 which I LOVE (and I love the learning and the challenge), Psychology, Human Growth and Development, Humanities, and Personal Growth and Development...next semester I'm taking A&P2, Microbiology, and Nutriton so then I'll have my prerequisites and corequistes done...and hopefully I get into the Nursing Program in August! Good luck to all...especially to us Anatomy students!!! ;)

Do you guys recommens taking A&P before Chemistry and Microbiology

Jae, in my college you can't take microbiology before your A&P I & II. I thought that was a bit odd, to be honest. I would have figured microbiology would be important before A&P. Not really sure.

Joliver you are an inspiration to alot of women. I am struggling trying to get back into school because i work full time, have 2 year old, and my husband going back to school. So you gave me encouragement that i can do it if i just focus and think of my childs future. Good luck to you

Hey just wondering - we are starting to make a lot of quizzes to put on the site to help people get into nursing school! What would you like help with?

I feel our pain! I am just finishing up this semester of intermediate algebra so I can get into my college algebra class next semester. I am going to just die...I'm not real good with math, but if it had some sort of reason behind it! My teacher told us that we will never use it. I just popped my head up from my desk and said....yesssssssss and? The teacher said it teaches us logic. It teaches us how to have patience and work things out. If I haven't figured how to work things out after 40 years...I am in trouble LOL!

Algebra is very hard, but not useless. I found that I was using it when I put it in the context of nursing. Calculations and finding the unknown variable. I just finished Intro to Statistics and felt my brain melting by the end of the quarter. If you need any help, just holler!

Stephine, Like you I have 4 boys at home and work at night, I'm trying to take as much of my prereqs online as possible. And I'll probley have to study and do class when my kids are sleep:)

I am also looking for money also, I am getting ready to take my  RN Nursing entrance test, so that's what I planning on taking this semester, and maybe next semester.

start pre-nursing in aug. I plan to go full time so a semester of the basics I guess.... Eng, Math, bio,and history
