   So, it's over. 2 years of 12 hour days, losing part of my memory/mind in order to stay focused, putting friendships/dates/family time on hold or just spending the minimum with people since my mind was always so clouded- it's over. I took it yesterda...

   I just finished Trainer 7 and thought "I am just meant to not be a nurse. I don't remember any of this or what to do first, etc." then I got a 63% on it and being a bad test taker as well, I was thrilled. I really needed to read your post today. I ta...

   Today we were practicing for our competencies which we are supposed to do on Monday. It's just vital signs, since this is my first semester. We were able to go early if we wanted, but no one really volunteered so we started practicing. We were pract...

   Kms210 posted a topic in Student Assist

   10 minutes, 10 questions, none of the material I studied. But I studied ALL of the material, I thought. I can't memorize 75 pages and we aren't SUPPOSED to memorize anything at all. But how can I get through these quizzes? We get 35 pages of notes ea...

   Like everyone has said, I am also so very sorry to hear of your brother's loss. My brother committed suicide when I was working on on my undergraduate degree. I dropped all classes except one and still had to work full time after his loss. It was har...

    Katie- I wonder if you could be an RN case manager? Since you already have some case experience with social work. That would be a great job.

    Kms210 replied to Kms210's topic in General Students

    Thanks! I just hope it's the right path for me. I've always heard the term, "you can be a jack of all trades or a master of one" and I think about that a lot. I wonder if I should stick to one profession. We'll see. I hope nursing is my passion, I re...
