  1. I'm back with math help needed again please!

    I think your confusion lies in that you're trying to do it in too many steps, I do mine in 1 or 2 large dimensional analysis problems. Just make sure that everything cancels out except for your end units and then there's almost no room for error.
  2. I'm back with math help needed again please!

    Okay I can't guarantee that this is all right because I've only had 1 health calculations class and haven't started the nursing program but this is how I learned to do it in my med calc class: F6-BE8886-58-D6-4-F54-A315-
  3. Is it advised that I take all prerequisites now or later?

    Personally, the only prereqs that I need for my BSN that aren't required for an ADN are nutrition and developmental psych. Since it was only 2 classes, I decided to just go ahead and get them out of the way with the rest of my prereqs. That's just me...
  4. layer under thin white uniform?

    I'm getting this to go under my scrubs: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Maidenform-flexees-cool-comfort-firm-thigh-slimmer/493970302 It's technically shape wear, but I think it'll do the trick lol. Also, definitely wear nude underwear, not white. Supposed...
  5. Remember pagers?

    I may be showing my age here, but I honestly have no idea what in the heck a pager is??
  6. Sexually harassed during clinicals by a male nurse

    Wow, must have been hard to make it through life being so insensitive to issues of others. By making a statement about how males also get sexually harrasses, you are minimizing the OPs experience. Now, please, go make a thread about male sexual haras...
  7. I was accepted into an ADN program and my local community college for spring 2019. I found on the programs website that their pass rate within 7 semesters (for a 5 semester program) was around 40%. Does anyone know if this is par for the course? It h...
  8. Sexually harassed during clinicals by a male nurse

    Way to minimize the OP's issue. I understand that sexual harassment can happen to anyone, including men. But I don't believe that preaching this is what the OP needed to hear. OP: I'm so sorry this happened to you. I am a survivor of sexual assault ...
  9. iPad question

    I download my PowerPoints onto it and use iBooks to annotate them. I use the quizlet app because honestly I like it more than the website. I use OneNote to take notes if it's more convenient than writing directly on the PowerPoint (however, for me, I...
  10. What are Psych NP/CNS's looking for in Salary/Benefits

    For the record, it seems that Glassdoor estimates are always a little lower than what you'd typically find. However, you know your area better than anyone else.
  11. Jeopardize nursing school, as a CNA

    I totally understand how frustrating it can be to have to constantly cover and make adjustments for coworkers, who in your own words, "do whatever they want." However, unfortunately, it seems as if this is just becoming a fact of life. I've been work...
  12. Reviewing tests

    Yes my school has a policy that we have to be able to review our tests. Some teachers go over it together in class, some pass them out to look over it and ask questions, and others you have to see them after class/in office hours.
  13. TEAS and HESI study tips

    I didn't take the HESI, only the TEAS. I honestly didn't do much to study because I was in an intense 5 week long A&P class. From the practice tests I did take, I knew science was by far my lowest, so I focused on making sure I was solid on my A&...
  14. Concerned abt grades after medical emergency

    I'm in a very similar situation. I had surgery before school started, but there was a complication and I had to undergo another surgery about a month ago. I'm taking Microbiology, Psychology, Math, and Nutrition. I was accepted to an ADN program for ...
  15. Can someone help on which route I should take?

    I would NOT do the MSN. The direct entry MSN programs charge you a premium. Think about it, you'd be spending an extra $15,000 for ONE year of school. You can do the concurrent ADN/BSN program, start work as an RN, get experience and decide what spec...
  16. Average Pass Rate in ADN program

    I hope this holds true at my school!
  17. Average Pass Rate in ADN program

    That's almost exactly the same figures that my school has posted online. Good luck finishing up this semester and then the NCLEX!!
  18. A&P II and Microbiology

    If school is your only commitment and you're willing to put in the time studying, I don't see why you couldn't take those two classes together.
  19. I just graduated high school

    Could you clarify something for us? Are you starting your actual nursing classes in a month? Or just your preqs? A combination of both? With that info, I think we'd be able to give you more specific advice to your situation.
  20. Average Pass Rate in ADN program

    Lol, I'm only 18, so what does that say about me? Just kidding! But really, thanks everyone for your replies, it definitely gave me some insight into what these numbers really boil down to. I talked to one nurse who graduated from my school in May an...
  21. Lippincott-Which Tablet??

    I use an iPad for everything school. You can get the 2016 or 2017 model for a few hundred dollars used on eBay or craigslist. Good luck!
  22. "He just wanted to know..."

    As someone who lives in the south, I see nothing wrong with what Katie said. In my experience, I have encountered more racism, xenophobia, and misogyny in my 7+ years in the Deep South than I ever could have imagined in the North. If I were a person ...
  23. Graduation Hold

    Besides just for this, I'd highly recommend getting a credit card. You don't actually have to use it, but just having a credit card that you occasionally put a small purchase on and pay off could do wonders for your credit. I am almost 19 years old a...
  24. Taking my NCLEX tomorrow... any last min advise?

    Hope you did well!
  25. "He just wanted to know..."

    I'm sorry, as a white native-born female, I don't have any words of advice for you-at least not any that would be coming from an informed place. What I do want to say, however, is that it is very disappointing to see the amount of people in this thre...
