    Failed for Clinical-but no proof

    BagelBomber replied to Misscruella's topic in General Students

    You don't need to be a mind reader...it is common sense to let someone know you will stepping off the floor or be away from your patient. Leaving without telling anyone is negligent. Period. Also,...

    Is it just me or is nursing school not as difficult as everyone makes it sound?

    BagelBomber replied to Nicolecn's topic in General Students

    I am in a similar boat. I think nursing school is as hard as you make it. Do I think the material we are working on is difficult? Not at all. BUT have I gotten As on every exam? No. However, I have...

    CCBC FALL 2019

    BagelBomber replied to AlyMick's topic in School, College Programs

    As a current ATB student (I'm in the Essex evening/wknd and Frostburg).... I can't speak for other ATB programs- but the FSU classes have been a BREEZE! The professors put PowerPoints online that go...

    CCBC FALL 2019

    BagelBomber replied to AlyMick's topic in School, College Programs

    Once you've received your confirmation email, when you go into your SIMON, it will say "under review" for what seems like foreverrrrr! Then...there will be the devastatingly long time you have to wait...

    Failed for Clinical-but no proof

    BagelBomber replied to Misscruella's topic in General Students

    I am a nursing student in my second semester. Prior to nursing school, I had zero experience in patient care or hands-on medical care. I did not expect to be explicitly told EVERYTHING that was...

    BagelBomber replied to AlyMick's topic in School, College Programs

    Two weeks in-not sure I can do this!

    BagelBomber replied to Piper98's topic in General Students

    I'm a single mom, and believe me the mom guilt is so very real! I'm in an evening/weekend program and work full-time, so I have missed soccer games and practices and I can feel the strain it has...

    Grades in ADN class

    BagelBomber replied to konp's topic in General Students

    I wouldn't consider a C "normal" by any stretch. I finished my first semester with a high B and two mid-As. That's with working full-time and being a single parent. Others in my cohort finished with...

    End of semester! How did everyone do?

    BagelBomber replied to VampyrSlayer's topic in General Students

    Happy to say I'm officially finished with my first semester! Ended Funds with a B (the worst kind of B...an 89.4 -_-), Professional Nursing Role with an A, and Assessment with an A. I have a split...

    Non-traditional ASN student...

    BagelBomber replied to mursepe's topic in General Students

    I just finished my first semester of nursing school- I'm a single parent (granted, with a ton of help from my parents) and work full time. My best advice would be to GET A PLANNER! I keep my planner...

    Average Pass Rate in ADN program

    BagelBomber replied to angel0309's topic in General Students

    I'm in the tail end of my first semester of nursing school. We haven't "lost" anyone as of yet, but there are definitely people who are in danger of failing first semester. We also have pictures of...

    BagelBomber posted a topic in General Students

    I'm in my first semester of nursing school, and had my first Funds exam last night. Leading up to the exam, I did practice questions, I reviewed the Power Points and reviewed my own notes....and I...

    I have a ten year old son, work full time and I am in my first semester of nursing school...and the mom guilt is REALLLL! I have already missed soccer practices and games for clinicals and lab, but...

    OB class makes me depressed...

    BagelBomber replied to erikathered's topic in General Students

    First of all, I think it took a great deal of bravery and honesty to openly speak about your situation here, and I congratulate you for that. I can't speak as a transgender individual, but I've...

    Feeling Discouraged

    BagelBomber replied to Etak's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I am a single parent of a 10 year old boy, I work full-time and I am in my first semester of nursing school. I'll be blunt- the mom guilt has already started to chip away at me. I'm very lucky in that...

    Class Majority Test Fail

    BagelBomber replied to LightningRose's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    If your professors offer test reviews- go to them! I was thankful I passed my first exam but felt like I still had it in me to do better. I found it really helpful to be able to go over my test and...

    Nursing School Frustrations

    BagelBomber replied to missnursingstudent19's topic in General Students

    I have an exam tonight with a lecture immediately following....definitely not looking forward to it. A previous professor of mine who I met with once a week would do lectures BEFORE exams and I liked...

    First semester- feels like drowning

    BagelBomber replied to BagelBomber's topic in General Students

    This is actually a great way of looking at it and I honestly feel a lot better overall. I was so caught up after that first exam worrying about how I would continue with the "NCLEX style" questions on...

    First semester- feels like drowning

    BagelBomber replied to BagelBomber's topic in General Students

    THIS! I have a nasty habit of forgetting to do this just in my day to day (I'm the single mom of ten year old boy, so I often forget that I need to eat/sleep/do something for myself). I actually have...

    First semester- feels like drowning

    BagelBomber replied to BagelBomber's topic in General Students

    I am so relieved to know I'm not alone! I've never been very good at "forgiving" myself for doing less than perfectly- so this whole journey will absolutely be difficult for me to adjust to. I thank...

    Nursing School Clinical Hours???

    BagelBomber replied to LubbDubb77's topic in General Students

    It definitely depends on your program. I'm starting in the fall, and my first semester I have clinical on Saturday and Sunday, 8 hours each. Good

    I FEEL STUCK

    BagelBomber replied to nurseinfuture's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    In your original post, you mentioned MD programs- I'm starting the evening/weekend program at CCBC Essex in the fall. I'm a single parent so I'll be working full time while attending school. I will...
