  1. Typical cellular data use in NS

    AnnPerkins replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    Well I'll be damned. lol My cheap watch broke too, so this is timely. Turns out a $5.95 watch doesn't have much

  2. Typical cellular data use in NS

    AnnPerkins replied to Beldar_the_Cenobite's topic in General Students

    I'm a tech girl. I have all of the things you mentioned because, well, I like them and I can afford them. That being said, I don't *need* any of them for nursing school. Not one. We aren't even...

  3. Starting the 4 year RN program at 29

    AnnPerkins replied to bluestar776's topic in General Students

    I just started my nursing program at 35 after finishing my pre-reqs and I will be 37 when I graduate. I haven't polled the ages of my classmates, but I'd say its a healthy mix of traditional and...

  4. Real shortage of nurses or bogus?

    AnnPerkins replied to RNFall2017's topic in General Students

    According to past posts OP went to GWU, which is a respected (private, but respected) nursing school. I'm not sure what the problem is, guy. Did you fail your NCLEX and are angry at all nursing...

  5. Dating during Nursing school

    AnnPerkins replied to Big_Mike's topic in General Students

    I'm dating my husband of 13 years during school. Does that count? Actually, it's less "dating" and more "frantically trying to juggle four kids, his job, my school, and not kill each other in the...

  6. Amazon Textbook Rentals?

    AnnPerkins replied to longwayup's topic in General Students

    I've rented every book I possibly could from Amazon. The only reason I went elsewhere would have been because they were out of stock. They're the cheapest 95% of the time, easy to receive and return...

  7. HELP! Struggling on AP class

    AnnPerkins replied to nikool11's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    There is a great A&P lecture series on YouTube called AnatomyGMC. I used it to help with my online A&P and it saved my life. She is really great at explaining

  8. Does A and P II require you to dissect an animal?

    AnnPerkins replied to nettnett's topic in General Students

    Our online class had a virtual cadaver lab. No

  9. Planners: Digital vs. Paper

    AnnPerkins posted a topic in General Students

    I start my nursing program this fall and I'm wondering which planner people prefer when it comes to keeping assignments, tests, etc., together. I'm a tech girl who uses Google calendar and iCal for my...

  10. Too much...

    AnnPerkins replied to mrs.olare2019's topic in General Students

    You have to stop talking to these people. It's really is that simple. If you get in trouble for participating in spreading rumors, you'll deal with that when it comes (i.e. own up to it). In the...

  11. Disney and Nascar Nurse?

    AnnPerkins replied to nursephillip's topic in Nursing News

    I've actually researched this quite a bit. There are listings for nurses at various Disney properties on the Disney Careers website. They generally require a BSN and at least two years experience. I...

  13. Hesi results ????

    AnnPerkins replied to Tyfuturenurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Mine was on the Evolve site immediately (actually, I don't know that for sure, but it was on there when I checked 15 minutes after I'd taken the

  14. How to survive Pre-nursing

    AnnPerkins replied to MsPerkins79's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It's true and it's why so many nursing schools have high GPA requirements to get

  15. What should I do - Abusive Instructor

    AnnPerkins replied to neuron's topic in General Students

    Ok, I just took a quick glance at your other posts and you have had "issues" with several professors. Judging by that and the irrational way you responded to Rocknurse, I'm thinking it's a you...

  16. What should I do - Abusive Instructor

    AnnPerkins replied to neuron's topic in General Students

    So far you've spoken very vaguely about "standards" and "betrayal," but you have yet to give specific examples of how this instructor is making your life so difficult. If you do go to the dean, you...

  17. What should I do - Abusive Instructor

    AnnPerkins replied to neuron's topic in General Students

    So.....do it her

  18. Desperately need help studying efficiently

    AnnPerkins replied to Accordiantoyou's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Sometimes you needs to switch learning styles. Look up A&P lectures on YouTube (I like AnatomyGMC) Read the PowerPoints and rewrite them in your own words. You said that you're good on lab, but...

  19. How to survive Pre-nursing

    AnnPerkins replied to MsPerkins79's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yeah I'm with you two. I have four kids (all with one activity or another at any given time) and a husband who works a ridiculous schedule. I have a 4.0 in all of my BSN pre-reqs (starting the nursing...

  20. Can I get into nursing school with a 3.0 GPA

    AnnPerkins replied to krista0421's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It really depends on how competitive the programs are in your area. For instance, the program I was accepted to was accepted to (public, 4-year college) is very competitive. The lowest GPA they...

  21. Putting off A&P1 due to professor options?

    AnnPerkins replied to hellohannah's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    A&P is a hard course. Add in a professor that could be equally hard and it might not turn out well for you. What are the reviews saying? I like to gauge those reviews based on the context. Did...

  22. Pre-Nursing student taking Sociology online?

    AnnPerkins replied to Anaya96's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with this. I took everything but stats online. Sociology was an easy class for me. We had quizzes based on the reading and a couple essays that we had to write. I breezed by with an
