   Spill, I am really sorry about your check off. I know exactly how you feel. I agree, Iris is wonderful. When you were practicing radial pulse on me yesterday it seemed that your fingernails were in the way. Do you think that might have had a fact...

    Yang....I know how you feel. I failed too - my #'s were too far off from hers on apical and radial pulses. I was SO nervous. I am seriously considering changing my major. Today is not the 1st time I have had this feeling - that's what scares me. ...
