1. Online nursing clinical skills on video/streaming

   AnAppleGirl replied to happyface27's topic in General Nursing

   Have you searched you tube. There were a lot of skills videos on there when I did my CNA training. They may have nursing ones also.

2. Don't you want to be an NP?

   AnAppleGirl posted a topic in General Students

   I was accepted into nursing school the end of April, and since then I have been getting that question from many family and friends. When I tell them that I don't have plans to become an NP they seem so surprised. They say things like, "but you are to...

3. My husband said...

   AnAppleGirl replied to stephanie.'s topic in General Students

   Oh husbands! I just had this conversation with my husband. When I mentioned to him that he is going to have to step up and fold some laundry, help kids with homework, or god forbid cook dinner, he kind of just smiled and nodded :) When he worked fewe...

4. why do good students get beaten down in nursing school

   AnAppleGirl replied to kvyates's topic in General Students

   I am not in nursing school yet (I start in the fall), but I have had this same experience during my prereqs. Mainly during A&P. It can get really discouraging when people make you feel bad about getting good grades in tough classes. I am right wi...

6. Pacific Lutheran University (BSN 2013)

   AnAppleGirl replied to benchpresslbs's topic in Washington

   I got the call this afternoon, but I didn't answer because I didn't know the number. I got the email about an hour after the phone call. I know it is rolling admission, so they are probably just slowly making their decisions and sending out the notif...

   Just got an email that I was admitted as well! It says I should get an official letter soon. I am so beyond excited! Congrats to the others who have heard! September is going to come very soon!

8. Scared to death about A&P

   AnAppleGirl replied to HeatherMax's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Don't stress about it now or else the anxiety will get the best of you! The best advice I can give you is make friends right away with one or two people so that you have a study buddy. I had another girl that I met with outside of class at least two ...

9. Thank you note--too much?

   AnAppleGirl replied to missk88's topic in General Students

   I don't think it is too much. A card shows that you really appreciate their willingness to understand and it shows that you are not taking it for granted. I had a similar situation happen to me. I had a dump truck load of family emergencies and medic...

10. Do you keep your personal life private while in nursing school?

    AnAppleGirl replied to Kadambari's topic in General Students

    It sounds like you got burned, but that shouldn't stop you from getting to know people. You never know, you might find a friendship soul mate in school. You can learn from this and maybe not reveal so much about yourself until you know someone longer...

11. I Don't Know How To Study :(

    AnAppleGirl replied to peppapig123's topic in Pre-Nursing

    So this is my first time posting on here, but I feel like studying is one of my strong points and I thought I could be some help. The thing that helps me the best is that I make sure I take in the information in all forms. I like to record the lectur...
