  1. Dropped from cohort

    cameron5575 replied to guest874748's topic in General Students

    This is kind of off topic but, just as a word of advice, I've learned from experience that checking emails needs to be a daily occurrence in nursing school. Even while on Summer vacation, I've gotten...

  2. Digital/ Hardcover Books

    cameron5575 replied to Tam Nguyen's topic in General Students

    Personally speaking, I think digital is the way to go. Nursing textbooks weigh like a thousand pounds for starters so a digital version will save your back. But, more importantly, a digital version...

  3. Nurses pdf support

    cameron5575 replied to moryaÄŸmur's topic in General Students

    I'm not sure what you're asking for. I don't know what school you go to so I don't know what courses you're taking. Are you asking for information specifically about the school's courses (like, what...

  5. Questions for YOU!

    cameron5575 replied to KiaraR's topic in General Students

    1. Are you asking how important writing skills are in nursing school? If so, the answer very. At least in my program, there is a heavy emphasis on writing papers with proper English, APA formatting,...

  6. ADN program starting now vs my aspirations towards and MD or DO: What do you think I should do?

    cameron5575 replied to MDBoy's topic in General Students

    I think it would be helpful for you to reflect on what exactly it is that made you consider nursing in the first place. As you know, RN and MD are two separate disciplines - one is not a stepping...

  8. Nursing education during pandemic

    cameron5575 replied to JPnAZ's topic in General Students

    Senior BSN student here. This semester, I'm taking peds/OB and community health. I've had 2 clinical days for pediatrics, no clinical days for OB, and 4 clinical days for community health (doing home...

  9. Graduation almost here and still no job

    cameron5575 replied to mmmar's topic in General Students

    I'm just a student myself so I'm no expert. But the best advice I can give you (based on advice given repeatedly to me) is to not just limit yourself to one specialty right off the bat. Don't think of...

  10. Failing a nursing class and feeling very depressed

    cameron5575 replied to Mandy210's topic in General Students

    First things first, I'm sorry that you're so stressed out. As for advice, I have a few questions first: 1. How have you been studying up until this point? Do you read the chapters? Do you...

  11. Ideal age of nursing students

    cameron5575 replied to dadaui66's topic in General Students

    I don't think there's such a thing as an ideal age for nursing school. So long as you're physically capable of performing the clinical skills and are able and willing to put in the work for (and deal...

  12. Group chats and cheating?

    cameron5575 replied to Emeraldstorm's topic in General Students

    I second this. It could be that, if word gets out that you used to be a part of that group chat, they may still blame you for not reporting it. So definitely check to see if there is a specific policy...

  13. No hands on skill labs?

    cameron5575 replied to olaswaisi's topic in General Students

    Out of curiosity, are your practice sessions in the lab and check off with instructors on the same day? If not, would it be possible to schedule a time to "practice"/go through the motions via video...

  14. Group chats and cheating?

    cameron5575 replied to Emeraldstorm's topic in General Students

    Yep, without a doubt - leave the group right now. If this gets out, I would imagine they can and will take disciplinary action against you, regardless of whether or not you actively participated in...

  15. Suggestion for supplemental help for new student

    cameron5575 replied to charlie44's topic in General Students

    I've found RegisteredNurseRN on Youtube to be a very useful study tool. They use mnemonics in every video which are extremely helpful for memorizing potentially confusing

  16. Help! The teacher's answers are different from mine?

    cameron5575 replied to Beaue's topic in General Students

    The formula for these types of problems are ((volume in ml) x (gtt/ml))/time in minutes. Remember, the ml in the volume and the ml in the “gtt/ml” cancel out leaving you with

  17. It's too late, isn't it? Advice and more+

    cameron5575 replied to X-raya's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I’m not in a position to tell you whether or not you should give up. However, I would like to weigh in on your trouble with A&P. Why do you feel like you aren’t doing well in it? I know you...

    cameron5575 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi there, I was just accepted into my university as a pre-nursing student. I know that schedules differ from school to school, but I was curious as to what kind of schedule I can expect? I volunteer...

  19. What is the Pre-Nursing and Nursing School Schedule Like?

    cameron5575 replied to cameron5575's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  21. What is the Pre-Nursing and Nursing School Schedule Like?

    cameron5575 replied to cameron5575's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for the reply! I suppose I'll just have to wait and see what my first year will be like. But I see that years 2 through 4 will most likely have a hectic schedule (as expected). In your honest...

  22. What is the Pre-Nursing and Nursing School Schedule Like?
