  1. Atheists? How do you deal with religious people?

    You would think so. But it didn't. The patients that refused her services didn't make a big deal about it, they just made the request. And then they were happy. And it didn't seem to cause any problems with the other staff. She wasn't running ar...
  2. Atheists? How do you deal with religious people?

    OP, On the subject of you saying that you don't understand religion....... As I mentioned earlier that I am also atheist. I felt the exact same way. I truly didn't understand religion because I wasn't raised in a religious household. But I recogn...
  3. Atheists? How do you deal with religious people?

    I am atheist as well so I understand what you're feeling. If someone makes a religious gesture to me, I will usually just give them a smile or another generic response. If I am asked to literally sit at someones bedside and pray with them, I just s...
  4. We just got lectured by our instructor about the tension in our group. There is tons of tension and eye-rolling at every little thing. My group is beyond immature. And the funny thing is, most of us are over 26. What happens to maturity when a bu...
  5. No laptops in class, seriously?

    You should probably find out what the reasons are behind the ban of laptops. They wouldn't pull the laptops away if there wasn't a legitimate reason. At my school, we are not allowed to use our laptops unless everyone in the class is going ot use t...
  6. question about withdrawing???

    I had 4 W's on my transcript when I applied. The classes I had W's in were A&P I, A&P II, Problem Solving Math, and Chemistry. They didn't effect my acceptance at all. They weren't F's and that's all that mattered. The fact is, they don't...
  7. Dropping classes?

    I guess it depends. Do you need to have full-time status for financial aid or scholarship reasons? Because if that's the case you may want to rethink going down to part-time. But if that isn't the case, then I would say drop it. Dropping your Engl...
  8. Buy some NCLEX books. It will help you get used to the type of questions they ask. It's possible you're reading too much into the questions. They could be asking something relatively simple but then you start racking your brain and coming up with ...
  9. First Nu test tuesday...any advice?

    Tip #1 - Get an NCELX study guide. Practice questions in the sections you are being tested over. It will help you get used to the format of the questions. And you may even come across similar questions on your test. Thats happened to me a couple ...
  10. Its a Saturday night & I am exhausted..

    I know what you mean. I've been studying since 8 this morning. Well, about 5 of those hours were spent doing homework but still. It is extremely exhausting. I wish I could go out tonight and relax a bit. But I have my math test on Monday. I hav...
  11. Nursing Diagnosis Resources

    Hello all! I am trying to find some information abour nursing diagnosis resources. Every time we have to learn about a nursing diagnosis of something, we have to bring back what we found and we need 3 resources. I always consult an expert and I fin...
  12. Help! SO Confused!!!

    There should be no reason why the college can't tell you. That makes no sense. But you should be able to find it in the college catalog. Also, because you already have a degree, you may already have the math requirement you need. The fact that it...
  13. Apparently, I suck at critical thinking....

    Critical thinking can be hard when you're not expecting it. But just remember that when you get into NS, your test question will most likely be application questions, rather than strictly knowledge. So you teacher is actually doing you a favor beca...
  14. I think that I would have to agree that I would want someone to tell my if I smelled bad. Would I be embarassed? Yes, of course. But if you pulled me aside and spoke to me in a non-judgemental way away from others, I would appreciate it. I would ...
  15. how did you handle it?

    I must respectfully disagree with this statement. Life gets harder in nursing school. We all know this. I am a single parent and things have gotten extremely difficult. It's hard to juggle school and my personal life. My boyfriend feels "neglec...
