2. Teacher falsley accused me

   MissNikkiRN replied to tallystudentnurse's topic in General Students

   There might be more than the OP wrote regarding why race was put in the equation. Believe it or not even in 2010 there is racism. Unless you have experienced racism first hand you have no idea. She could be an ignorant person with nothing better to d...

3. FYI... Open house... accepting new grads....

   MissNikkiRN replied to Lisa1980's topic in New Nurse

   Hope the director calls you as well. Did you get any contact information that you can follow up with? Even if you didn't, I would definitely follow up somehow to let them know you are interested and you want this opportunity. You already made the fir...

5. 1460 on GRE and not accepted?

   MissNikkiRN replied to sandmanwife's topic in SRNA

   I had an experience that was like this one. It was the very first nursing school I had applied to. They already had the people they wanted before we finished the entrance exams. I was told it would take two weeks to get the results and three days lat...

9. Pharm ???? grains converted to mg.

   MissNikkiRN replied to nursejackie2010's topic in General Nursing

   Both answers are right. My pharmacology book stated that one grain is equal to 60mg or 65mg. I guess it depends. On what I don't know. LOL I always used 60mg to covert unless 65mg matched the question/answer better.

10. Is this bizarre?

    MissNikkiRN replied to mcpnurse's topic in General Nursing

    It does sound crazy. I am a new grad and I couldn't imagine not having the proper orientation. Just curious where is this hospital located?

11. LPN Grad (Army) HELP I can't seem to find a job after applying at several hospitals?

    MissNikkiRN replied to bluelpngrad's topic in New Nurse

    I am in the same boat regarding the job situation. If you don't find a job and your loans are going to kick in soon call the loan companies directly. Tell them that you are looking for work and can't afford to make the payments right now. Could you h...

    MissNikkiRN replied to LuvScrubs2's topic in New Nurse

    Oh, that's really good that you are getting your foot in the door now while you are still in school. You are being steered in the right direction. I wish that I had done that in school but found out later on that it should have been the way to go. I ...

    MissNikkiRN replied to LuvScrubs2's topic in New Nurse

    Hey NY Dreamer, just curious where in NY you are from. Also, that is crazy that you have volunteered, done an externship and still nothing. I have recently tried volunteering and missed the monthly deadline for my first choice but the other two I cal...

14. how to report a teacher to the BRN?

    MissNikkiRN replied to scibruin's topic in General Students

    I am on both sides of the fence with this one. The first concern I have is that you were patted down. I don't believe that was appropriate behavior on the instructor's part. It is true that the student should not have the cell phone for many reasons ...

15. How important is GPA while in Nursing school?

    MissNikkiRN replied to AcousticFoodie's topic in Student Assist

    I think that you are missing the point entirely, this is a blog a place to vent and express questions or concerns. I believe that there is cheating going on everywhere in every program. Whether or not it affects you or you are subjected to it effects...
