1. Men in Nursing...

   OHN19 replied to eaglenurse2b12's topic in Male Nursing Students

   I hate to break it to everyone, but the mentality that nursing isn't a "man's job" still exists. Even as a student I got asked why I wanted to be a nurse because it's a "woman's job". I imagine it's a...

   OHN19 replied to PnwRN84's topic in General Students

   I live in a city ~10,000. The closest drive for a clinical site was like 5 minutes. The furthest was around an hour and 15 minutes The only thing that sucked about the further away clinical was...

   OHN19 replied to yli2017's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

   Depends on you. How well prepared your school ACTUALLY made you, how long it takes you study things normally, resources available to you, stuff like that. I graduated and took a week off from all...

4. Am I missing something?

   OHN19 replied to Scrantonroyalnurse19's topic in General Students

   Some people just learn differently than others. Perhaps you just pick up on things faster than most. I was like you until maternity and then I wanted to pull my hair out studying. Just hope you can be...

5. ROOT RULE

   OHN19 replied to RNfindingherway's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

   Why be judged for 75 or say even 265? Why not 4000? Don't know. A bunch of people with a way better degree than I decided that a computer system could figure out if we are good enough to be nurses or...

   OHN19 replied to RNfindingherway's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

   The way I understand it is if you Run out of time it takes your last 50 questions and if you got more than half right and were above the passing "line" you pass. I'm sure you can look at the NCLEX's...

   OHN19 replied to Cheeze's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

9. Nursing mnemonics

   OHN19 replied to vishalisekar's topic in General Students

   Most assessment stuff you just kinda have to memorize. I've never heard of any mnemonics for them at least. Repetitiveness helps with assessment stuff once you start clinicals/preceptorship/whatever...

10. Anyone else pre nursing & dealing with depression?

    OHN19 replied to maria1315's topic in General Students

    Everyone deals with depression differently. I don't know much about OCD and anxiety other than what school has taught me. I do know that most schools are willing to accommodate you if you have special...

    OHN19 replied to Shelby2823's topic in General Students
