   matcha-cat posted a topic in Nursing Career

   I know this is probably going to come off as dramatic, and if that's the case, then I'll appreciate outside perceptions of the situation gratefully. I've worked for the same company since I was 16...

3. With a MSN, why do I need a BSN?

   matcha-cat replied to INrnstudent's topic in General Nursing

   I think this topic has been mentioned a few times on here, and I think what most people were getting at was that if you get your MSN before working as an RN, employers will find you too overqualified...

   matcha-cat replied to matcha-cat's topic in General Students

   Thanks for everyone's comments; I really appreciate them. :) Right now I'm leaning more towards taking the classes at separate times. I need to try and make an 'A' in all of my classes, I believe... I...

5. Is taking Human Anatomy at the same time as Chemistry a bad idea?

   matcha-cat replied to matcha-cat's topic in General Students

   I think trying to make As would be ideal since the nursing program is competitive. I'm not sure how competitive, and I can't seem to find any information on that when I search for it. There are only 6...

   Awhile back ago I asked if taking Chemistry and Biology at the same time was okay, and the general consensus was that it should be okay. I was going back through the school I'm interested in's page on...

8. Struggling in basic Chem, unsure of my future in Nursing

   matcha-cat replied to Kellcat's topic in General Students

   I have pretty much the same problem as you. I've never really done well in school. I simply couldn't pay attention. I ALWAYS did bad in class because I could never stop day-dreaming. It wasn't until I...

    matcha-cat replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Career Advice Column

    I'm really sorry to hear that you're experiencing that. When I did my CNA clinicals, I sometimes was treated rudely (though most of the time, people were very kind). I had no choice but to ignore it-...

    matcha-cat replied to Nurse Beth's topic in Career Advice Column

    Yessssss... I'm a very quiet person and I don't communicate in the same way other people do. I have very awkward social skills and I don't know how to make small talk. I generally overcompensate by...

13. Navy Corpsmen Caught

    matcha-cat replied to guest52816's topic in Nursing News

    I don't know if that depends on the hospital? The hospital that my husband is a corpsman at has them wearing their blue digital uniforms. Even the doctors will sometimes wear their military uniforms....

    matcha-cat replied to Beeboop12's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    Your thread title is "This is really mean, but I have to say it..." I'd say that people would be pretty interested in knowing what you were about to throw out. I don't understand what the purpose of...
