  1. Check with the individual school. Bring your transcripts and speak with an admissions adviser. Many schools only look at the last 60 or so credit hours. You can check with the traditional 4 year institutions and community colleges. Be aware that...
  2. Is it possible to work during an ABSN program?

    I would say no. Just because something can be done doesn't mean it SHOULD be done. At the very least I would not work in the first semester. This way you can get a feel for what will be required of you. If you think you can handle more work after...
  3. What's your opinion?

    In my program Peds seems to be A LOT easier. I don't know if this is fairly common or not, though.
  4. If I get kicked out of nursing school? Easy. I'm moving to Mexico and majoring in English.
  5. OB clinical experience ... a male perspective.

    I just finished my OB/Peds/Newborn Nursery clinicals last month. Had to watch a circumcision. I think I had sympathy pains...
  6. What to do about talkers!

    Can't top that.
  11. How can I not feel so overwhelmed at clinical?

    I'd say try to stick it out, but if she marks you unsatisfactory (or some equivalent of it) for your clinical, then consider asking for a different instructor. If another instructor shares the opinion of your current one, then it's just you. I, how...
  12. Marijuana and Nursing School

    Easy there, Panama Red. Just because I think saying "...on occasion I indulge in smoking marijuana for the calming effects it has on my situational anxiety and sleep issues." and "I am fervently against the use of any anxiety prescription of the sor...
  13. Marijuana and Nursing School

    Come now, Caribbean Character, a person that abuses illegal drugs occasionally is the perfect person to have a job that involves...passing out drugs.
  14. Marijuana and Nursing School

    Supporting Mexican drug cartels by paying cash for an illegal drug is OK. Seeing a doctor to ask about treatment options for a condition that nearly every human being in our country has experienced at one time or another... Now THAT would be wrong.

    Well, if professionals self medicate it must be ok, then. Sounds legit to me.
