For Fun--Kudos 2 Me...The "toot your own horn" thread

Published

Hi, anyone want to brag a bit? After all, I think we deserve it.

I thought it would be fun to share some of our victories and things we think we should be patted on the back for.

Here's mine....I passed my first skills test this week and got a 100 on our first quiz in Fundamentals which I am soooo proud of because, as everyone knows, nursing tests are different than any other tests, you have to learn to think differently. You have to learn to think like a nurse, and WOOHOO, I DID IT!

Specializes in student; help!.

Good job! I had an aha! moment with my pharm book today, which is good because I don't get the feeling I'll be having them from the lecture. It makes me think I can get through the class okay, after all.

Also: I bought three new pairs of shoes today, two pairs of Merrels and a pair of Reeboks (I think). All of a sudden, the little things are rocking my world.

Specializes in Hope to be in the NICU.

Ok- I'll bite. We took our first CPA yesterday and I made a 93%. That is BARELY an A on our grading scale, but still yet it is an A. AND it's the ONLY A in the CLASS!!!!:D

I realize I have alot of work ahead of me, but that was sure a confidence booster!

Specializes in Emergency Dept. Trauma. Pediatrics.

My hooorah kudos moment was my Pharm Final. I got 100% and was the only one. It felt so good and was such a surprise for me because I only studied about 30 mins for it and Pharm wasn't one of my easier classes. LOL

Someone said that there is to much negativity on this board so I am bumping this thread up. I got a 90% on my exam I had to take yesterday for my Psych class. Got an 88% on the first one. Both B's but being that I didn't really study for it, I am happy :D
