1. Getting a C in Nursing

   alindberg replied to Annachu512's topic in General Students

   I don't believe anyone said that the A students shouldn't be darn proud of their accomplishments... Nor did any of the C students say that everyone should settle for a C and be fine with it...I'm sure most with C's wish they had better grades and are...

2. Getting a C in Nursing

   alindberg replied to Annachu512's topic in General Students

   And btw - if you can make all A's, take care of your family, exercise 5 times a week, spend time with your friends, keep your house spotless, be a perfect clinical nurse and still look beautiful at the end of the day - more power to ya! I'm jealous, ...

3. Getting a C in Nursing

   alindberg replied to Annachu512's topic in General Students

   I think the problem here is that the A people are judging the C people for not being as smart or trying as hard, almost as if you A people don't think the C people deserve to move on because they're not as good as you. Where is the compassion of you ...

4. SCARED TO DEATH to start accelerated BSN - questions please help me

   alindberg replied to SDMFamily's topic in General Students

   Personally, I DO believe that nursing CAN be very family friendly...Being an RN opens the door to many different paths and opportunities. If you want to work in a doc office and have bankers hours, then that's possible. If you want to be home with yo...

5. Need RN credits transfer help so badly to a college that will accept them.

   alindberg replied to tupamoto's topic in General Students

   RN classes do not transfer. I completed a semester of nursing a while back and no one would take those credits. I then waited so long to go back that I had to redo my sciences because they were more than 5 years old! Unfortunately it is likely that...

6. Young mom, nursing school

   alindberg replied to Nursekidd1's topic in General Students

   I could lie and say it's easy, but I'm all about being truthful. =) It isn't easy having kids, and it isn't easy going to school. It definitely isn't easy doing both at the same time! haha I got through almost two semesters of nursing school 11 years...

7. Should I be worried??

   alindberg replied to kdixon123's topic in General Students

   A few things - Good for you that you're doing well without having to dedicate every moment of every day to studying. You're blessed and you can be thankful and happy about it! :) I'm doing pretty well also and not spending every moment of every day s...

8. Nursing School Advice

   alindberg replied to jthys's topic in General Students

   I am in my first semester and don't feel quite as overwhelmed as I thought I would. Of course some days are worse than others. I have been told by some 2nd year students that the stress doesn't get less, but it changes. The first semester is the one ...

9. Beginning First Semester of Nursing School

   alindberg replied to angelsrup2002's topic in General Students

   I would recommend you getting some books with NCLEX style questions in them. You can get NCLEX study books, or you can get books that are tailored to specific subjects with NCLEX style questions in them. (Pharm, Med Surge, Fundamentals, Maternal/Infa...

10. Questions about Nursing Care plans?

    alindberg replied to mcclot1993's topic in General Students

    Why are you trying to learn this when you're not in a Nursing program? I'm not trying to be rude, just wondering...I have never had anyone interested in learning how to do care plans if it wasn't necessary. Usually people put it off as long as possib...

11. Nursing students and immaturity

    alindberg replied to Melanin's topic in General Students

    I feel you need to definitely bring it to the first person in your chain of command at school, immediately. Don't put it off another moment because it sounds as though it is already getting worse. You should NEVER have to be put in an uncomfortable p...

12. Test Review

    alindberg replied to runswithscissors's topic in General Students

    We review our tests as a class on the day of the exam after they've been graded. We have to turn in a scantron AND a paper test with our answers on it. The scantron is our final grade and we never see those again. The instructors keep them locked up....

14. Too young/ early in life to be in Nursing Program?

    alindberg replied to futuresctRN's topic in General Students

    OMG - This isn't something to be ashamed of, this is something you should CELEBRATE!!!! I started nursing school right out of high school completed 1 1/2 semesters of NS and I got hung up with a man and got married and dealt with his baggage and chi...

15. Can a nursing student transfer into a program elsewhere?

    alindberg replied to danedsel's topic in General Students

    To my knowledge schools won't transfer actual NUR courses. So you should be able to transfer all of your pre-reqs but I doubt you'd be able to transfer actual nursing classes unless certain schools have agreements to do so. I could be wrong, but I do...
