1. Feel excluded from classmates

   lampard replied to lampard's topic in General Students

   Thanks for the comments. I think I should just focus on my studies. Thinking about this is too much of my energy and time. There will always be people that don't like you anyway.

2. Feel excluded from classmates

   lampard replied to lampard's topic in General Students

   I know a few acquaintances in classes. They seem to be way friendlier than the people that I sit with. I feel like they're excluding me from all conversations. (especially the girl that tries to play the 'queen bee')

3. Feel excluded from classmates

   lampard replied to lampard's topic in General Students

   Yes I think that's true. I just don't want rumours going around because if I suddenly sit somewhere else people will get suspicious.

4. Feel excluded from classmates

   lampard posted a topic in General Students

   Hi I just wanted to say that I feel excluded by my classmates - particularly the people who are in my group. There is this one girl, who's stopped even making eye contact with me, and she won't talk to me at all. She doesn't even look at me. It's ...

5. What is supposed to be the hardest year?

   lampard posted a topic in General Students

   I was just wondering because my aunt is a nurse, and she got her degree in the 80s. She says that the first year is the hardest because the whole anatomy and physiology thing and nursing language is new when you start... My mum says that subsequen...

6. Is being in a clique bad?

   lampard replied to lampard's topic in LPN/LVN Students

   Well, thank you for that. But don't make assumptions based on what you know from other people's posts. No, it's not just me. Everyone in my class is very cliquey. I've got life experience, I've worked as a teacher in a poverty-stricken country b...

   When I'm on my period, I don't feel like I want to do anything.. I have to take 2 tylenol pills as soon I start my period otherwise I end up curling up in bed screaming in pain or either fainting.. The cramping goes away though if take the pills b...

   I don't know, but during our breaks, people stare at us. This is the first semester by the way, so students are probably trying to work out which 'group' they should fit into... We don't talk but talk a lot during breaktime..

9. Is being in a clique bad?

   lampard replied to lampard's topic in LPN/LVN Students

   Yes, it is true. This is why I had no choice to but get into a clique before it was too late. I didn't want to be sitting by myself.. and also didn't want to miss out on vital tips for tests etc because half of the people in my group are A students...

    lampard replied to Gog3tter's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    There are students who are aged in their mid-40s in my class. They seem to be very academic.

11. Doing group work is annoying?

    lampard replied to lampard's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    We have to assess each other's performance too It's work 25% of the grade. I just hope that I contribute well enough to the group.

12. Doing group work is annoying?

    lampard posted a topic in LPN/LVN Students

    OK, I've been assigned to a group of 4 people, and we have to write an essay together.. we need to do our own individual research on the topic, and then write about it.. I don't mind working in groups, but writing an essay TOGETHER is really hard.....

    lampard replied to lampard's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    I thought that getting into cliques would be a good thing, especially when you are having trouble in clinicals.. and you want to talk about it with your friends etc... Also, I need to get into a clique with A-students because it motivates me to do t...

14. Is being in a clique bad?

    lampard replied to lampard's topic in LPN/LVN Students

    OK, but our whole class is generally "cliquey" and sit in the same spot and hang out with the same people everyday.. This is not the US btw... maybe the people in US are more friendly and talk to everyone outside of their clique. I didn't want to be...

15. Is being in a clique bad?

    lampard posted a topic in LPN/LVN Students

    I guess I belong in a group and there are about 6 of us who sit near the back. But people seem to be always staring at us. Is it because we stand out? We are a very ethnic group... Do you think we might seem snobby to others? There are about 11...
