I emailed them..put them in the cloud...save save save,lol I do believe their was 1 gal that it did happen to...not sure it was capstone, but was during one of the classes and she had not saved anything! My computer did crash on me during one of the classes, but hadn't started anything, whewww!

On another note....Anyone have a couch I can crash on? Went out for a haircut....instead of a trim..went for the old buzz cut!! lol Wife is not going to be happy,lol As they say, difference between a bad haircut and a good haircut.....2 weeks..in this case it may be 4 weeks,lol

I lost a ppt and 2 health assessments after my brand new lap top crashed. Geek squad was able to extract one assessment. I had sent a rough draft of the ppt to another student, so I had a very rough draft. It was crazy. I learned after that to drop box, email, thumb drive everything, lol.

If you have not worked a a RN in awhile..or have not meet the hours required to keep your license valid, then its back to school for a "refresher" Some are theory based and some are theory and clinicals. I am doing the theory part online...then 2 weekends of labs..then 4 weekends of working on a med-surg unit. Good times

HI,

Statistics question. I am not great with Math, is Statistics going to be killer? What book is used for it? I'd like to get a head start if possible. Thanks!

The problem with stats is the class starts off mid book, instead of the beginning. The book isn't a lot of help, IMO. What helped me was the book Statistics for dummies, as well as Googling YouTube videos that explained terms. I also took the course description and googled those terms.

With that being said, my husband helped me ALOT, and we would work on homework together. He has a better math head. I did pull an A- out of the class.

Thank you for the answer! I was worried that I was missing something. LOL

Hey tokmom,

thanks for the input! It seems like stats has gotten mixed reviews here.
