1. Mandatory flu shots????

   longhornfan replied to 45whenimdone's topic in COVID

   I feel like it's a basic duty if you work in healthcare and would be hypocritical to try to help people and promote good health and not do something like get a flu shot. How could a hospital promote something like a flu shot and NOT require their em...

2. I feel like I'm drowning...

   Yup! I just have to remind myself sometimes that this is just a stepping stone to what it is I want to do......hard to remember you won't be a student FOREVER sometimes.

8. Starting a study group...

   longhornfan replied to Brian's topic in General Students

   i definitely don't study with other people! I get way too distracted; if there is something I don't understand specifically, I'll pick up the phone and call someone, but not just sit down and say "let's start on pg 1"

9. HESI A2 math and A&P!

   longhornfan replied to maddiem's topic in HESI

   Ya, the math is pretty straightforward, lots of basic math and conversions. The A&P isn't too bad, but that in my opinion requires more studying. i personally used the book by Trivium test prep and i really liked it; i got it b/c it had 200 or ...
