I have an iPad2 and I love it. However, I haven't really figured out how to make the most of it for school. Can you guys tell me the best note-taking and reference apps? I'd like to have note-taking apps that can record lectures and take dictations. ...
OK, so I called the admissions counselor today to find out how many points one can earn with a TEAS score of 88% (out of a possible 10). She told me that an 88% earns 10 POINTS!! That plus the 4 bonus points for the A in A&P I, I have a total of ...
Good evening all! I hope I am posting this in the correct place. I am trying to do all I can to up my chances of landing the job that I want when I become an RN. I am taking the NAI class beginning in January. My intention was to get an NA job at Mos...
You are not alone in your thinking. In fact, all of the nursing programs in my area DO require NAI certification to be accepted. I start mine in January and I can't wait to start working as an NA to get the much needed experience!

If you need the certification as a prereq for RN school, then no, you cannot challenge to get into school. If you just want the certification and it is not a requirement for your RN school, then you can challenge. I asked the same question at my inf...

Thank you! Even though I am still a student, I also get a bit irritated at the same things that you and many others do. I thoroughly enjoy productive, adult conversation, and that is often lacking in some of my fellow students' discussions. Believe i...

I totally respect your opinion, but I would like to clarify something. Do you dislike it when student nurses post about any topic, or only about topics that they can't possible know enough about to comment. For example, say you posted about a really ...

Wow, I sure did not mean to start any arguments with my OP. I completely understand all of the specific issues that student nurses post about that are very frustrating. I have never posted in such a way, and I do not intend on giving any opinions on ...

From what I understand, they are going to have a HUGE wake up call when it comes to paperwork. I have spent a lot of time in medical facilities as a patient and I know that there is a ton of paperwork involved in nursing. I wish people would just st...
JennyNurse2B replied to JennyNurse2B's topic in General Nursing
That all makes perfect sense to me. Actually, even though I am not a nurse yet, the issues you all have mentioned bother me, too. Especially when brand new grads give strong, rude opinions to a veteran. That would greatly offend me. I have noticed a...
Hello all! I would like to say first that I really enjoy this forum. I have learned so much about what is ahead of me, some things are scary, some exciting. I do not make a habit of posting in the General forum, unless I am saying something general l...
I have been studying like CRAZY for the last couple of weeks. I have been so nervous about taking this exam. I am taking the class online, and the teacher cuts us absolutely NO slack. In fact, she makes it unnecessarily difficult at times. The midter...
