    Where do you live? What are you going to do with your degree?

    Well, I'll be damned. Hope they straighten their website out tomorrow or I'll take a drive to Lynnwood. I live in Seattle and will go to law school after graduating. Already took the LSAT and did well on it.

    Now only 2.5 credits stand between me and me going to Central American paradise to study Spanish for a couple of months. What are you doing with your degree?

    So PAA was more interesting, but not easier than World Pop? 'Cause I didn't find WP to be easy at all, certainly not for an A. In fact, getting 70 in College Math was way easier and I don't like math.

    What was the easiest UL exam for you?

    For me, it has to be interesting. I found Psychiatric Nursing fascinating and so I got an A. It's just the way I learn and am motivated.

    Drugs and Alcohol probably the easiest. A & A, Abnormal Psych not bad, Gerontology okay.

    Wow Law school! I guess you saw too many episodes of Perry Mason or if you're younger, then Law and Order.

    I love to read and share information so after 20 yrs in the corporate world, and six at home (love that), I'm going to be a Librarian. Haven't found the school, money, or sat the GRE yet. That's the goal; to finish in the next six weeks; Math UGGGHHHHH!

    ECE OB looks dreadful. I'm thinking Pathophysiology. My hubbie teases that after Library school, I'll be bored and go back to school to be a Naturopath.

    Just occurred to me, if you took World Pop at the new Pearson Ctr in Seattle, then we passed in the parking lot.

    (Prob should do anymore of this on PM.)

    Crystal, the only thing by John Cavanaugh I can find in that library is Prison Train. Neither is there anything by the other recommended authors.

    Yes we did pass each other in Seattle Pearson and if you hadn't beaten me to the morning appointment I'd be there in the am too. Hate taking tests after 10am but by the time I got around to scheduling, am appts were all full they told me. I seriously doubt it though. Was the testing room full and were there lines of people for blocks around burning fires to stay worm? Like the Soviet Union rose again.

    Reviewed my old Instacert notes: "used 3rd edition Cavanaugh book".

    This link should help you. I think I had Sno-Isle borrow it out side the system which is why it's not listed. I'm really not sure. Ancient history, ya know? You can get the same book for $1.00 from this site.

    I would have loved to trade exam times with you. I was just glad I didn't have to drive to Renton. I am not a morning person.

    The room was full. I was really surprised. Not a sign of the "rise of the SU". I enjoyed the course. I thought the test was really hard, but I got an A, so go figure. You never know.

    Where do you get those curve stats for individual courses?

    Wow, Crystal, this is great! Textbook for a buck is a 99% discount, so I already ordered it (I don't care what edition, same crap I'm sure) and signed up for IC. I want to be just like you, you know? Getting an A on PAA, that is.

    I'm so surprised you weren't able to get the pm appt. There were only 2 other people in the room with me.

    ECE curves.

    Glad you found a book Traffic.

    Pearson Vue is weird. I'm glad I only have 1 exam left with them. 12:00 didn't even come up as an option and I really doubt they had 20+ people cancel at the last minute.

    Looks like I'm doing Pathophysiology with Librevore. Wish us luck. We nailed Psych Nursing together and we're not Nurses. haha.

    You mean how long before they update your transcript and notify you by e-mail? About two weeks.

    How lame. Shouldn't be more than a day or two with all these computers and for this kind of money.

    Well, at least it's coming my way sooner or later along with a tacky diploma
