    Back up stethoscope?

    As others have said, keep it with you at all times. The only time my stethoscope leaves my neck is if I'm using it, then it goes right

    Pre reqs

    I got a C in anatomy & physiology. I'm now going into my 4th, and final, semester of nursing school and I've gotten all A's and B's with the exception of Pathophysiology, which I also got a C. I...

    Sent home from clinical :(

    Wow, and I thought I'd heard it all. $400 to make up a clinical!?!? That's like....a million dollars to college students. But seriously, I wonder if these instructors might have some sort of quota...

    Laptop or pen & paper during nursing school?

    At my school, having a laptop is a virtual necessity. All of our books are E-books and one of our classes (Pharmacology) is 100% online. We also get lots of powerpoint handouts so for my note-taking...

    Tips on makeup during clinicals?

    I agree with the others. Hell, I'm a male nursing student and even I find that request

    Should I Withdraw? (Peds)

    I'd double check with a nursing advisor to make sure you're able to re-take the class if you drop with a failing grade. My school also has a one class re-take option, but if we drop a class while...
  8. This. I have some dumpy HP printer for when I need to print off a page or two at home. My school offers free printing for students and I've literally printed hundreds and hundreds of pages there for...

    i don't know

    Just curious, but why are you hesitant on applying to ADN programs? Many of them aren't as competitive as BSN programs and it seems like it'd be your best bet at this point. Like someone else...

    Nursing school Q: 1 min/1 question?

    What type of questions are being asked on these tests? If they involve SATA or dosage calculations, then I agree that one minute isn't enough time. Learning how to think critically is a big part of...

    PROBATION

    I suspect you might be trolling us all. In the event that you aren't, this is not the place to seek legal advice. As others have stated, get in touch with legal counsel immediately. If anything,...

    Interview Question

    That's one of the stranger interview question's I've seen. How are you supposed to know what you would change without first knowing the day-to-day routine of the place? While you should definitely...
  14. You can use ANY job you've had in the past to your advantage when applying for nursing jobs. I was a doorman at a nightclub so that's always my go to when asked about strengths. I get to talk about...

    Passed in 75- Uworld is the best!

    Thanks for the info, and congrats! I graduate in December and think I'll be getting a Uworld subscription soon. I'd actually never even heard of Uworld until I came to this forum, but it seems like...

    Nursing Student and Uber Driver?

    I'm going into my last semester of nursing school after the summer and I did the Uber thing for a while. It really depends on what kind of city you live in as some places just don't get much business...

    Sorry, I'm out of school for the summer and don't really care to do someone else's homework. Better luck next

    Adn Vs Bsn

    I don't know about the Houston area, but many places will hire ADN nurses and then help them pay for their BSN. I'm in an ADN program now, graduating in December. I'm already virtually guaranteed a...
