1. Summer Classes

   satherp5 replied to Nurse2b7337's topic in Pre-Nursing

   I tried to take anatomy in the summer a couple years ago. It was SUPER intense. 40 hours/week minimum. I don't know how you all are taking that and other classes. Good luck everyone!

2. Why a Nurse?

   satherp5 replied to Ant24's topic in Male Students

   1) Love working with people. The idea of helping someone in their most desperate time of need is pretty awesome. 2) 27 now, 29 when I graduate. 3) I'm going to a CC for my ADN then I'd like to transfer to UW to get my BSN. After that I'd like to wo...

   satherp5 replied to tenjuna's topic in Male Students

   You assume the worst in this guy despite knowing nothing about him. You find amusement in his failure. Because you and many others could handle the poo, but this guy couldn't, he's weak or didn't really want to be a nurse? Some times people just can'...

5. How to study for Muscle?

   satherp5 replied to zeno33's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Find someone that will let you draw on them and outline every muscle you need to know. Sounds ridiculous but you'd be surprised at how much it will help.

6. 2.5 gpa hello will i get into nursing school

   satherp5 replied to shasaynee's topic in Pre-Nursing

   You're best chance is to find a program that accepts students based on TEAS scores or something like that. They'll have a cutoff GPA just to be eligible, so you might have to retake a class or two, but if the school goes off GPA alone you have no cha...

7. Dating in Nursing School

   satherp5 replied to hemoglobin11's topic in General Students

   Obviously you're not happy with your boyfriend or you wouldn't have let yourself get close to this guy in class. Sounds to me like you're just making sure he's better than your bf so you can leave the bf for school guy. Not exactly fair to bf, no?

8. How Nurses Feel...

   satherp5 replied to Joe V's topic in Rock

   Had a girlfriend that called it "free beefing" LOL.

   satherp5 replied to tenjuna's topic in Male Students

   Wow, do I have to look forward to this kind of judging because I tan, workout and care about my appearance?!? I can assure you that I did not want to go into nursing because I "believed the porno". To be honest, I'm a little nervous how ill react to...

10. What's YOUR Dream Job?

    satherp5 replied to KJoRN81's topic in General Students

    Since I'm only just starting nursing school I'm really not sure exactly what I want to do. I just know I want to work somewhere in Seattle Children's.

11. Favorite things you bought during RN school to help your studies?

    satherp5 replied to northmississippi's topic in General Students

    Thanks! I have this bag from my military days. It's probably what I'll use for a while. It's an amazing bag, I just want to get away from military stuff. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000LF70TI/ref=aw_d_var_2nd_sporting-goods_txt?vs=1 Want to go to...

12. Would wearing a sexy nursing outfit to a party disrespect the profession?

    satherp5 replied to smartnurse1982's topic in Professionalism

    When you say a lot of nurses chase doctors you might as well say a lot of nurses have common sense. Is there something wrong with wanting to be with someone smart, educated and that makes good money?!?

13. Favorite things you bought during RN school to help your studies?

    satherp5 replied to northmississippi's topic in General Students

    I can't decide if I want to buy an ipad or a new laptop. I refuse to use a rolling bag. Drives me nuts seeing guys in their 20's using those things. Big leather shoulder strap briefcase perhaps? Need to find some stylish man shoes. Everyone and the...

14. Anyone else here entering the EvCC program

    satherp5 replied to morningstarRN's topic in Washington

    BUMP Anyone going to Everett? For anyone considering it, here's what got me in to their nursing program. Accumulative GPA: 3.26 Science GPA: 2.92 (with a few repeats) TEAS: 82.0% Not stellar by any means, but I made it! Plus this upcoming spring qu...

15. How do I know I am smart enough to become a RN?

    satherp5 replied to tkesh's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I've asked myself that a bazillion times. Trying to change the question to, will I work hard enough to make it through nursing school? Will I stay focused on what's important and not let unnecessary distractions in? Go for it. Give it a try. Worst th...
