   Had my final clinical skills lab: head to toe assessment last Tuesday, 5th exam on Friday and will have comprehensive final on Wednesday 12/13/2006. Then I am finished for the semester! Already got a stack of non-nursing books to read over break and plans to do a massive cleaning of this place I call home!
   Well back to studying, only 3 1/2 days left and I will be through fundamentals!WOOOOOHOOOO!!!

   Me Too!!!! I have a Pharm final tomorrow and Fundamentals on Friday, and I can't bring myself to study. I have tried off and on all day and now here it is bedtime and I am fixing to start the coffee brewing and try to at least look over my notes one time before going to bed . At least the pharm final is not comprehensive but it is still over 18 chapters. Good luck to everyone out there.

   Last week had an Assessment test, ATI, Objective paper, Reflection paper, Physical Exam and final skills validation.
   
   Monday was Fundamentals final, Tuesday was Psychosocial communications and in about 8 hours...the class from hell, Assessment. I just want to get this done. I studied the better part of 2 days for this and feel decent about it. I am so happy that my wife was so instrumental in me getting through this semester (so far) and I can't wait to spend the better part of 3 weeks with my 3 year old boy. I missed him so much this semester.
   
   Friday I start my job as a tech in the ICU. This semester sucked but if I can get through this, I think I can get through anything.
   
   Good luck to everybody.

   Well....I have one more final tomorrow (ethics). But unlike the previous four, I think it should be pretty easy.
   
   My OB HESI is done...
   My Peds HESI AND final are over
   And Geri is out of the way
   So today, in celebration, I have pigged out...
   had a little dance party in my room
   sleptnbch:
   and lurked/posted on allnurses :typing
   
   Clearly, taking all of these finals has caused me to go a little crazy :chuckle, which may explain why I'm enjoying these icons waaayyy too much.
   
   Good luck to everyone with more finals!

   OB Hesi this past Tuesday, which I passed.
   
   OB Final today (Wednesday, that is), which I passed.
   
   
   It was touch and go this semester, and I got through by the skin of my teeth (or, the hair of my chinny-chin-chin, if you prefer), and I thank God that it's over.
   
   Jan. 20, we begin 'Management of Client Care' and 'Adv. Concepts of Adult Health', which is advanced Med-surg, plus m/s clinicals.
   
   April 15, we start a 160 hour Capstone (preceptorship), and I've already had people offer to precept me in both newborn nursery and NICU (the two places in which I have interest in working).
   
   Time flies when you're killing yourself studying!

    <Raises Hand>
    
    OB Final Sunday at 315
    
    Concepts HESI final Monday at 8am
    
    Care of the Community Final Thurs at 10:15
    
    OB Hesi is today at 3. I hate this HESI. No idea how to study for it and the little workbook doesn't seem to help me. It also doesn't help that the CD for the book does not work on a Macbook. Dumb if you ask me
    
    
    Soooo can't wait for May 19,2009 when it will be BSN after my name dear lord.

    I am DONE with finals this term! Oh happy day...it was on Tuesday, we received our scores Tuesday afternoon and I thought I totally bombed it. I left to go home with a pit in my gut. When I logged on to check my score I was so surprised to have an 89%. Whew. No studying for 3 whole weeks! YAHOO! Good luck to you who still are studying to take your final. You can do it!
