  1. Is BSN harder than ASN?

    krenee replied to HeartsOpenWide's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I also don't think it matters which one is HARDER, and honestly I doubt that one is substantially harder than the other. It just depends on your personal needs. For me it was a no brainer because...

  2. Anyone else getting cold feet?

    krenee replied to NoviceRN10's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If you got all As in your prereqs, you will be fine! I found nursing classes (so far) to be easier than the prereqs. I am enjoying it (mostly!) You know up front it will require a lot of hard work,...

  3. Statistics Or College Math?

    krenee replied to preciousbaby621's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    From everything I've heard, Statistics is really hard. I don't know why your advisor would suggest it!

  4. Recent TEAS Test Takers!!! I need you!

    krenee replied to toreyjane's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I didn't take it *that* recently, but within the last year - January IIRC. The study guide was WAY harder than the test. I would make sure you know your english to metrics conversions, and have an...

  5. I suck

    krenee replied to mel101478's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Oh, my dh took statistics online, well he took ALL his classes online for his bachelor's degree - and statistics was the ONLY class he wasn't successful in. He ended up re-taking it in person, and...

  6. NVCC Fall 2007

    krenee replied to chikichiki17's topic in Virginia Nursing

    I did get in for 2007 - I'm doing great so far. Just took the midterm and felt pretty good about it. What do you think so far? I'm also glad I got in before they changed the entrance process. I...

  7. Case Scenarios help

    krenee replied to che667's topic in General Students

    LOL I'm glad you weren't offended. That just seemed like an assignment I had to do last week that took me five hours! Daytonite gave you some great information though! I'm pretty much a beginner at...

  8. Case Scenarios help

    krenee replied to che667's topic in General Students

    I'm sorry, that is WAY too much work to do in answering your post, you might want to narrow your question a bit. It sounds like you want someone to do your assigment for you. No offense, I'm sure...

  9. No She/he Did Not!!!

    krenee replied to Maggie in NC's topic in General Students

    No she did not remove an IV with no problem and then put the band-aid over a MOLE instead of the IV site! Yes, it was me :selfbonk: I'm so embarrassed!

  10. Chem 100/101

    krenee replied to graceland's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Forgot to mention in my previous post; YES you will understand why you need chemistry during A&P and micro. I took chemistry afterwards and wished I had taken it first. Also, I'm in NS now, and...

  11. Chem 100/101

    krenee replied to graceland's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yeah, chemistry was tough! I liked this website when I was taking it: http://dbhs.wvusd.k12.ca.us/webdocs/ChemTeamIndex.html Good luck!

  12. drug test results

    krenee replied to EDnurse2009's topic in General Students

    Wow, I have the same problem (and did the same thing). If I'm not actually in PAIN from having to go so bad I would never be able to do it, with all the pressure from having someone sitting outside...

  13. Medication Administration 3 checks

    krenee replied to Kellicyrist's topic in General Students

    LOL, we now have EIGHT, for goodness' sake. The "right to refuse" by the patient, and the "right to information" which actually we haven't been taught, I just saw it. I assume that's also the...

  14. why do you want to be a nurse???

    krenee replied to Nili927's topic in General Students

    Yeah, for some reason I hate this question . . . I don't really get why people feel compelled to ask it so much compared to other professions. I always want to say "I want to help people" because...

  15. First day of clinicals

    krenee replied to nurse2btracy's topic in General Students

    This is very true. I haven't started hands on yet but I keep thinking, really, how badly can I mess up a bed bath, for goodness' sake. We aren't even allowed to pass oral meds yet. So I'm trying to...

  16. From a student - how much of what we learn is really done?

    krenee posted a topic in General Nursing

    I'm a brand new nursing student, just starting week 6, and I'm in a bit of shock with the information we're learning . . . WAY different than what I expected. I had never heard of nursing diagnosis,...

  17. Discussing grades with classmates?

    krenee replied to OgopogoLPN's topic in General Students

    Ha. Sometimes I think I AM an insane person who does nothing but study. Oh well, it's totally worth it to me to get the grades that I do.

  18. From a student - how much of what we learn is really done?

    krenee replied to krenee's topic in General Nursing

    Thank you for your response! I am starting clinicals next week so we will be working with RNs. I know I have a lot to learn and don't get me wrong, I'm happy if there is more to nursing than just...

  19. Potter & Perry Fundamentals of Nursing Study Guide

    krenee replied to xt1's topic in General Students

    Yeah, I don't have time for a study guide, with just doing the basic reading. I do use the CD exercises. But I think it depends on your school, in my school the exams come mostly from the lectures,...

  20. Discussing grades with classmates?

    krenee replied to OgopogoLPN's topic in General Students

    Yes, it's been uncomfortable for me . . . I got a 98 on our first exam and I don't know anyone else who even got an A. I don't want to cause resentment . . . the truth is that people like knowing...

  21. First day of clinicals

    krenee replied to nurse2btracy's topic in General Students

    LOL we did nothing our first day of clinicals. Just an orientation. It was a lot of nerves for nothing. Next week I'll be nervous again. We're going to get assigned one patient, and have to do...

  22. NVCC Nursing clinical uniform for 2007 and beyond...

    krenee replied to NVCC_RN'08's topic in General Students

    Yes, apparently we're the first class to get the new uniforms, and it is a relief after seeing the old ones! My dh thinks the one I have is ugly with the green pants, but I think they're fine . . ....

  23. NVCC Nursing clinical uniform for 2007 and beyond...

    krenee replied to NVCC_RN'08's topic in General Students

    OK, I just wanted to make sure. You will have an orientation and they will tell you everything you need to know. Basically they will assign you a clinical, you don't get to choose where or the...

  24. NVCC Nursing clinical uniform for 2007 and beyond...

    krenee replied to NVCC_RN'08's topic in General Students

    LOL, which NVCC? Northern Virginia Community College? There's another one in Connecticut, I think Naugatuck Valley or something. I'm at Northern Virginia Community College, so if that's what you...

  25. Why is.....

    krenee replied to rnmomtobe2010's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    You will see when you take A&P! I took A&P with micro before I took chemistry, and when I took chemistry I wished I had taken it first. It would've been helpful. I've also learned that some...
