1. How do you deal with annoying classmates?

   Missy202 replied to scrublifenurse10's topic in General Students

   I can definitely empathize with you. Unfortunately since nursing is a field dominated by women, we have to put up with the most nosey, gossiping, talkative, and emotional people. I just tune them out to the best of my ability.

3. Advice on pre-requisites

   Missy202 replied to ms brown's topic in General Students

   I did it two semesters straight. First semester I took Chem I, Anat I, and two other classes. Then the next semester I took Chem II, Anat II, Pathophysiology, and another class. It's challenging because sometimes tests seem to overlap and you'll have...

5. How do you prevent yourself from failing?

   Missy202 replied to Oshie85's topic in Pre-Nursing

   My anti-failture advice is just working as hard as you can and believing in yourself. People who have different majors often say "It does not take all of that studying!" Don't listen to them. They just don't understand the hard task we have and the a...

7. So Many Students! Will Shortage Now End?

   Missy202 replied to PacoUSA's topic in General Students

   I don't think the shortage will end. There are alot of nurses who are retiring. Also there are alot of burned out nurses who are leaving to go into a different field. Also, even though there are tons of nursing students, nursing school is VERY compet...

8. Why nursing?

   Missy202 replied to samantha18's topic in General Nursing

   1. I love the adrenaline rush. (desk jobs and same-old-routine jobs just don't cut it for me) 2. I love helping others and feeling needed. 3. I love the challenge and mystery and the fact that you can learn something new from just about every patient...

9. Students that cheat

   Missy202 replied to NewNurseAlert's topic in General Students

   I had a friend that was an avid cheater. I'm a believer that you can never truly get ahead from doing wrong. Consequently, every time she took two steps forward, she would go backwards three. What I'm saying is that cheaters never win in the long-run...

10. Dating while in NS?

    Missy202 replied to ErinJane's topic in General Students

    If you are already in an established and serious relationship then it might not be as bad as if you were in a relationship that you are 'trying to get up off the ground'. I had the later and nursing school has definitely put a strain on things. With ...

11. A&P II Spring 2009, anyone?

    Missy202 replied to Nepenthe Sea's topic in Pre-Nursing

    4 weeks and counting left in my A&PII class. My prof was a real pain at first. Now that I have gotten to know him better, I understand that his personality is an "acquired taste". A&PII is definitely harder than A&PI but I have a higher g...
