I'm getting closer...

Today was the day for the second lab practical and guess who aced it? Yep, yours truly did a fantabulous job! I scored a 97/100, woohoo! That brings my grade up to a VERY high B (I would have an A if 90% was the cut off). The nursing program is definitely within reach and I'm so excited that I can barely stand it! However, lecture exam 3 is looming around the corner (next week!), so I've got to study my behind off!!!


I hope everyone is doing great!

System PowerPoints

The Powerpoints that I've created are now up and ready to use. On the right, you can find the Digestive System, the Lymphatic System, and the Respiratory System.


I hope they help!

Endocrine System Powerpoint

So, I've finally finished my PowerPoint for the Endocrine System and wanted to share it with you! Let me know if I need to add any more information. :-)


Not much has been happening around here, school wise. The kids (yes, all 4 of them) and my husband, Nate, were all ill last week and it was a madhouse around here. Fevers, vomiting, and diarrhea are never fun to deal with. *sigh*


My second lab practical in Anatomy & Physiology 102 is on Saturday and I've been studying my butt off. I'm also retaking the TEAS this coming Monday 03/29/2010 and I'm nervous about that. Hopefully, I will make a higher score this time.


Check out the menu on the right and enjoy! BTW, for some reason the pictures look strange in Google Docs, but when you download it, the pics look great!

Spring Break


It's Spring Break at my campus and I think it is at all the other campus' associated with my school. Only one of my classes (AnP102) is actually on campus, so I don't have to worry about it so much. I should be enjoying the time without homework, but I'm trying to get ahead so that I can focus on studying for the TEAS, which I retake on the 29th. I'm close to the wire, time wise, since the application for the nursing program is due on April 1st, but at least I'm getting it in there. My first grade on the TEAS wasn't terrible, but I want to see if I can do better.


I've got good and bad news. This past Friday, I took the AnP101 midterm and did very, very well! I studied for over a week and wrote down all pertinent facts from all 7 chapters, however that didn't leave much time for studying for the AnP102 lecture exam on Saturday. I made a C on it and I am NOT happy. I did so well on the first lecture exam in there (94%!) and I'm ticked at myself that I didn't do as well on the second. This score dropped my grade to a high B and I'm so glad that I still have time to raise it. The next lab practical is on the 27th, so I've been studying for it this week.


My other classes are going pretty well. I have an A in Tech Writing and a B (currently) in Chemistry. I'm determined to try my hardest to raise it to an A. I have 6 weeks to bring my grade up 5%. Think it's possible?
