1. No friends in my class?

   WestKyKing replied to BJA98's topic in LPN/LVN Students

   It'll be okay. Buckled down and study by yourself. Sometimes it's better that way simply because study groups can quickly turn into "forget the books lets just gossip and eat pizza" groups, lol. But, I do know that nursing school is a rough experien...

3. Super senses

   WestKyKing replied to WestKyKing's topic in General Nursing

   Well darn, I was really looking forward to parading down the hall with my underwear on the outside of my scrubs. But, I guess a cape would be a little too much, it'd probably be covered in lovely mysterious stains half-way through the shift. Thanks...

4. Super senses

   WestKyKing posted a topic in General Nursing

   Just wondering, if anyone else has experienced the sudden heighten of senses when they first started nursing? I'm currently a student, but I had recently started working as a CNA and after about a month of working my hearing is highly more significan...

5. please help I start nursing school in spring.

   WestKyKing replied to christwendt's topic in Career Support

   Shave it off, keep it moving. How you look doesn't have anything to do with how good of a nurse you will be. Plus there's plenty ugly nurses, doctors, patients, and etc. lol. Confidence is key though. A lot of people you might perceive as beautiful o...

6. Girl in my cohort is cheating

   WestKyKing replied to KitKat2019's topic in Student Assist

   Also....buy your own permit, lol. You're an adult. It is your money. That's like not buying new socks because your neighbor said, " naw, it's ok whenever you need some just come to my door and ask for mine." No one can stop you from getting a parking...

7. Girl in my cohort is cheating

   WestKyKing replied to KitKat2019's topic in Student Assist

   Are you the type of person who doesn't like confrontation? At an older job, I would have people asked me real serious personal questions, people who I barely knew. They were usually the type who like to gossip, you can easily tell this because someti...

8. If not nursing what other career would you have done?

   WestKyKing replied to nurse2bnoob101's topic in General Nursing

   Spider-man.

9. A Sign From God?

   WestKyKing replied to NurseMT_'s topic in Pre-Nursing

   Well, even if nursing isn't for you....at least over $1200 worth of books for free..... lmao! I just hope it wasn't some poor bloke who had laid the books down to go quickly run and grab something to come back only to find that their entire stack the...

10. Is 61 too old to start Pre-Nursing?

    WestKyKing replied to Kikzy's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Do it, If that's your dream then live it. No matter how long or how short. Better then looking back on it with regrets. I say if you can, then why not?

11. Why is A&P so hard?

    WestKyKing replied to matcha-cat's topic in General Students

    I was scared when I went into A&P 1 at first, just because that's all I heard from people in nursing and outside of nursing was how hard it was. And how many people failed it, but to be honest I would only really study the day before and right on...

12. Had a 1.2 GPA now I'm in the RN Program

    WestKyKing replied to WestKyKing's topic in General Students

    Best of luck to you. Sometimes it takes us a little longer to achieve certain things, but the great thing in that is, through that long tiring journey you tend to pick up a lot of stuff. Like adding a little seasoning to your plate, lol.

13. Lattc rn spring 2018 acceptance

    WestKyKing replied to chargenurse82's topic in California

    That all sounds nerve wrecking, I hope y'all get in :)

14. What are/were your holy grail resources to pass nursing school?

    WestKyKing replied to ilovemedicine5's topic in Share Tips

    I record the lectures I'm allowed to on my phone. I will replay them while I study, and I will also play them on my rides to work.

15. Should I apply to more than one Nursing Program

    WestKyKing replied to futuretxnurse's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I would, just to be safe. There were a few of students in my RN program orientation who got accepted that where from other schools.
