   -Midget- replied to Annointed_RNStudent's topic in Men

   Kim, that makes since to me, and just like you--I wonder why that is. My mom's friend (female) is an OB nurse here. When we were in the car the other day, my stepdad asked me if that was something I would consider doing. I told them how I had read th...

   -Midget- replied to CuriousMe's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I just started A&P 1 this week, and my second class is Wednesday. My instructor seems really cool, and everyone that I talked to speaks very highly of him. The class and lab are going to be a lot of work, and I knew that before, from the horror s...

6. Post here if you are done with finals!

   -Midget- replied to AmericanChai's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I just finished today! This term was hard...I should not have taken 5 credits of math and 5 credits of bio at the same time. But it's over now, and I survived...grades get posted Monday. I want to know now, but chances are after a few days, I'll for...

   -Midget- replied to LydiaNN's topic in General Nursing

   Maybe try changing the orientation (landscape/portrait) of the slide. That would make the boxes wider.

9. Study habits?

   -Midget- replied to -Midget-'s topic in Pre-Nursing

   Cathie - I've just been marking key points off the study guide...after seeing how many people have been doing it, and said it was very helpful to them. It's been helpful, because when I go to skim through the chapter to take notes, I know where every...

    -Midget- posted a topic in Pre-Nursing

    Hello, ladies and gentlemen. This term, I took my first college-level biology course ever, which my advisor said would make A & P make more sense. The tests are killing me...I'm hovering between a C and D. She said if I get at least a C on the f...

13. OHSU school questions

    -Midget- replied to xera678's topic in Oregon

    I'm not an OHSU student (yet), but it's my school of choice, and I take Trimet to to Pill Hill quite frequently. It doesn't take very long...the bus passes right by the SON, and it probably far better than parking. Also, the tram will be running soon...

    I never knew they were originally a French organization! That's interesting. A long while ago, I read some of the stories on their site. Wow! The stuff they do is pretty cool! It would be really neat to talk to someone who's been on one of the trips!
