  1. Notes: Laptop, Tablet, or Paper?

    For years, I mostly used my laptop, and did just fine. I never really had to review my notes for classes like English, etc. For math or science classes, where there's lots of non-standard notations, it was pencil and paper. I tried using my laptop fo...
  2. Yep, you are only eligible for Student Loans, not Pell Grants if you are going back for a lower or same level degree that you already have. I have a Bachelors Degree in French, and am going back for my RN. I can't get grants, only loans, thankfully I...
  3. Muslim nursing students

  8. Foley placement BEFORE anesthesia??

    Well, I don't know about C/S, but I just had a colon resection (genetic colon cancer, caught very early, resection was all that was needed, no chemo or colostomey), and they didn't put the foley in until until after I was unconscious, for which I am ...
