No one should feel bad it is virtually impossible to get an A in this course while working full time having kids etc doing overtime to support self and family,try your best that’s all you can do.People who don’t work full time etc have the time to focus on this 100% and get an A or A+ not everyone has that opportunity or is lucky enough.Getting an A in the class doesn’t mean you will not suck as a nurse.Nursing is more than microbiology.

@fauxlocfeen4864 7 месяцев назад

Yesss this comment! It’s not impossible but I hope people who work full time with kids and bills understand it’s okay if you don’t get an A

How do you not get discouraged? I start the semester with a study plan and I have the best intention to learn but then get discouraged when I don’t retain the information or understand fully.

@SukainaAttar 2 года назад

I definitely get discouraged and many times think that I’m not capable of meeting my goals. It’s about understanding that everyone has a different journey so to not compare your success to someone else’s. It’s all mental, as long as you passed, you passed. Tell yourself that you can do it and that you believe in yourself. Jobs will not see what grades you got in each class. Just believe you can do it and celebrate every big and small win

Since I have weak background knowledge. I am having a hard time understanding the biochemistry parts when studying microbiology (such as peptoglycogan, Kreb cycle, something that has to do with chemical structures...) is there a way I can make that up? Should I go over basic chemistry or biology in order to understand those things?

@SukainaAttar 2 года назад

It could definitely help to review some chemistry/biology but nothing crazy, just the basics if you believe that would help you understand better. There’s plenty of RU-vid videos that go over the basics like the Kreb cycle

@madisonchristine3697 3 года назад

Thank you for sharing your experience! I’m currently taking microbiology next semester and I’m worried about how busy I’ll be with my other two classes. What would you recommend?

@SukainaAttar 3 года назад

hi! What I advise would be to plan and organize your assignments for all classes and set a study schedule for them. I like to start each week by reviewing the syllabus for each class and taking note of everything due and any exams I have. I’ll assign work to certain days so it’s spaced out so there is no overlapping. With exams, I set a strict schedule and i study an even amount each day leading up to the exam until all the material is covered. As long as you schedule out your work days and study days you’ll be okay. Organization is key! Wish you all the best ✨

@microbiologyit 3 года назад

I cannot agree more. Planning the days of when you will study each subject is important. What’s also important is being consistent with your study method during each study time. ~all the best to you in your classes.

Micro is difficult for sure and especially when it’s accelerated, but you can do it! Temporary sacrifice for a greater outcome.

@@SukainaAttar I ask because I recently learn some times there are biology classes for health majors that tend to have a different focus and intensity in comparison to similar classes required for bio majors. I wish they would do that with chem classes for bio majors, organic chem killed me. The chem department treated it as their root out course for chem majors, but it was murder on bio majors.

@itsall_coming_down 11 месяцев назад

The college I’m attending requires it before being accepted to the nursing program.

@Lou-mw4hu 11 месяцев назад

From my experience, prerequisite means the coursework you have to complete BEFORE you’re “officially” doing the program. In some cases, if ur accepted to a university with the program that means ur doing the prerequisite courses usually in ur 1st and 2nd year. The last two years are more actually nursing and clinicals. If ur doing prerequisites at a college or other university before transferring then you have to complete those before you’re accepted into a nursing program. (In this method, u usually do prerequisites for 2 years, and then once u transfer the remaining coursework in the program is also another 2 years.) both ways it usually takes 4 years

@Lou-mw4hu 11 месяцев назад

To clarify: the first method means that ur already accepted into the program, ur just spending more money to take those courses at a university.
