   chickpea9 replied to ProudRN2B's topic in Texas

   I agree with Mimi. The new tegrity recordings SUCK as far as content. However, the quality is much better. I remember way back when I could depend on them but I quickly found out this past semester that that is no longer the case. Last time I checked...

   chickpea9 replied to mashamontago's topic in General Nursing

   Hey masha, I'm in the same boat that you are in. I guess the only difference is that I know why I'm failing (76%) - I don't study and I dislike kids and babies alot, and I mean A LOT! The only tip I have for you is to remember some of the strategie...

    chickpea9 replied to maurabartley's topic in General Students

    No problem for the info. I've been meaning to post answers to your questions for a while but hadn't found the time. There aren't any alternative options for lecture, there's only one. Clinicals are picked in a lottery type setting during orientati...
