    New Nursing Student Must Haves and Advice From Current Nursing Students

    C0SM0 replied to CreativeUsername's topic in General Students

    Apologies if someone has already said this, but Khan Academy videos did me wonders in my pathophysiology course. It really dumbs things down to help you understand those things that the text talks...

    Sick of the BS

    C0SM0 replied to Helluvanurse33's topic in General Students

    The further I read into your post, the more I realized that it's more than likely that you are the problem. Most of your post was simply telling us about how great you are. And as a minority myself,...

    Does age matters,when planing to become RN?

    C0SM0 replied to Lovemy3boys's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'll be 34 when I graduate this December and I'm not even close to being the oldest one in my class. We have several people in their 40's and a couple in their

    C0SM0 replied to Paging Stacy's topic in General Students

    You should contact an advisor at your school. All schools are different when it comes to

    Item for nursing school

    C0SM0 replied to NursetoNP23's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I wouldn't get an Apple Watch JUST for nursing school. Like others have stated, a cheap watch from Wal-Mart with a second hand will do just fine. However, if you have an Iphone and and would use an...

    Facility not allowing us patient contact

    C0SM0 replied to stockmanjr's topic in General Students

    It seems like there is a major communication issue between your clinical facility, clinical instructor, and instructor for the didactic portion. I've never heard of a clinical rotation where students...

    Question for nurses that are male...

    C0SM0 replied to NurseLife88's topic in General Nursing

    I don't get offended by it, but I can see why others might. I don't think many people use the term "male nurse" in a derogatory way. Our society just has a stigma to it that males belong in certain...

    Nursing school

    C0SM0 replied to S_zappile1996's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    A majority of people that fail out of nursing school do so because they simply don't put in the required effort. Lots of people will do fine on their pre-reqs while putting in minimal effort, but...

    C0SM0 replied to Tj221's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    Your experience is very similar to what I experienced during my Med/Surg I clinical. Just to verify, My Med/Surg I is the second semester nursing course. Our instructor had us do nothing but CNA...

    iPads/ tablet utilization

    C0SM0 replied to Perspective's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    As far as nursing students go, I highly recommend investing in a laptop. It doesn't have to be super fancy, but it'll be much better than a tablet for coursework. Most nursing programs these days...

    3.6 GPA: the likelihood of getting into nursing school

    C0SM0 replied to CheyenneElliott2017's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Like you stated, the competitiveness of the school is a huge variable as to your likeliness of success. I've know people with a near 4.0 GPA get rejected from one school, while someone with a 2.5...

    Male Student in OB Rotation

    C0SM0 replied to dreblanco's topic in General Students

    I'm not sure what I said that leads you to believe I have a victim mentality. I stated that it doesn't bother me if people refuse my care. It seems like you need to work on your attention to detail....

    Male Student in OB Rotation

    C0SM0 replied to dreblanco's topic in General Students

    I'm a male currently in an OB rotation as well. Unfortunately for us, patients have the right to refuse us as caretakers. I noticed someone else commented that it's a person's right to refuse...

    Online Nursing Classes

    C0SM0 replied to leahlapp's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just to reiterate what the previous person said, I'd check with your school to see what they accept for those courses. Many schools (mine included) force you to go through their Pharm and Patho...

    A bad foundation ruined my chances of nursing school?

    C0SM0 replied to HanaJ's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was in a situation similar to yours. I went to a community college when I was still in high school. I only did it to get out of going to my regular high school classes. I was way too immature for...

    Math requirement for RNs?

    C0SM0 replied to llg's topic in General Nursing

    I'm currently in an ADN program. College Algebra was required before even applying to nursing school, then we had to take a math test in first semester which we were required to score 100% before...

    KCKCC Admissions for Non-Wyandotte/Leavenworth applicants

    C0SM0 replied to UnicornMomx3's topic in General Nursing

    I realize this post is a little dated, but thought I'd throw in my two cents to anyone googling the subject. As of now (April 2017) KCKCC only accepts two applicants per semester that do not live in...
