   Yeah, it looks like KSU requires general chem 2 for it.. I'm trying to avoid taking additional classes so I can try to take some classes this Winter to offload some of the classes for when school starts haha.

   LittleFizz replied to RNinc4's topic in SRNA

   Is anyone looking to still take their organic Chemistry requirement? I didn’t have to take a whole year of general Chemistry so I only have one semester of it. I’m looking for online organic Chemistry classes at the moment...

   Hey guys. Has anyone taken an organic Chemistry class for their crna program that doesn’t require CHEM 114 or 1 whole year of general Chemistry? My nursing program only required one semester of general Chemistry and a survey intro to orgo/biochem cla...

   LittleFizz replied to JustAnotherNursemaybe's topic in Critical

   it will take a while, but you will start to feel more comfortable as you do it. for example, you can take the CRRT, impella, IABP classes, but not know what to do until youve actually taken care of these patients. just remember to use your resources ...

8. CCRN study! (Laura Gasparis lecture vs. Barrons, vs. PASS CCRN)

   LittleFizz replied to dlee50's topic in Critical

   I watched laura gasparis' videos and combined that with pass ccrn. it was enough for me personally. I did not do any practice tests. I liked the pass ccrn question bank because I could do it at work when I had time in between tasks. I think it was ab...

9. What are some good resources to read up on as a new graduate in the ICU?

   LittleFizz replied to newgradICUnurse's topic in Critical

   from personal experience, you will learn so much of this stuff on the job. I do browse icufaqs.org in my spare time on the floor. I personally feel like you may overload yourself by reading these books. it may be more beneficial to just absorb your e...
