  1. Math!!!!

    Biol20fan replied to pristock230's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's exactly what I went through. I hadn't taken any math in years, but what I had taken was enough to qualify for my NS prereqs. Therefore, when I actually started NS back in May, I was scared to...

  2. Why are male nurses looked down on?

    Biol20fan replied to USCUAmber's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I have three males in my class (I'm female, btw), and all of them are going to be outstanding nurses. I'd rather have them taking care of me than some of the other female nurses I've had in the past!...

  3. Things Patients Have Taught Me NOT To Do

    Biol20fan replied to Trixxy's topic in Nursing Humor

    :selfbonk: Oh. My. God. Did they figure out who did that? And what happened to them? I'm always so paranoid when I punch in code numbers; I protect them like I'd protect my ATM

  4. Can I hear some positive things about nursing school?

    Biol20fan replied to rntoben2008's topic in General Students

    Oh my word, yes, NS is very hard. The good thing: not a whole lot of what you are being taught is difficult. The bad thing: there is just a whole ton of it to learn! I'm about four weeks away...

  5. who is tired?

    Biol20fan replied to shellpsychrn's topic in General Students

    *yawn* :sleep::sleep:Huh? What? Did someone say something? :sleep: I'm exhausted. Everyone in my class is exhausted. It's only our first semester of the program, and I know I have a long road...

  6. Things Patients Have Taught Me NOT To Do

    Biol20fan replied to Trixxy's topic in Nursing Humor

    I have no

  7. Looking for white graduation dress (2nd hand).

    Biol20fan replied to 3sodapop's topic in General Nursing

    How about looking in the thrift stores in your area (I'm a big thrift store junkie ), or a consignment store? Consignment stores should have the better quality items, but they'll usually cost

  8. Out of the mouths of babes

    Biol20fan replied to madwife2002's topic in International Nursing

    :roll:roll:roll:roll:roll:roll:roll That is too

  9. For all of us who are sweating bullets waiting on acceptance/rejection letters...

    Biol20fan replied to phoenixfire's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    OMG I would have LOOOOVED to have had a 4.0. I think mine is a 3.4, and people always give me the attitude like I'm one of those people who complain about getting an A- instead of an A. No, it's...

  10. For Everyone Starting Nursing School in May of '08!

    Biol20fan replied to FriendlyGhostRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I start on May 27th, as well. I'm flip-flopping between excitement and nervousness, both of which are accompanied by nausea. LOL A big ol' :w00t: to the August 2009 grads! We can do

  11. First Day! First Class!!!

    Biol20fan replied to 9livesRN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    :yeahthat: I hope your first day went

  12. the RN's appearance

    Biol20fan replied to Olli's topic in General Nursing

    If you want, you could be a smart a** and tell that RN that yes, white is technically a color. It's the combination of all colors in the light spectrum. How do I know this? Because wikipedia tells...

  13. breakfast ideas for nervous am stomach

    Biol20fan replied to Kitty Hawk's topic in General Students

    Something I do a lot for my six-year-old son is this: put some milk in a blender with a banana, peanut butter, and some Ovaltine (for the extra vitamins). Blend it up, and you've got something fairly...

  14. How many students did your nursing program accept for your class?

    Biol20fan replied to anna19's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    36 for the summer (which includes me, yay!), 60 for the fall. Over 800 people applied for those two semesters. I think it's also 60 for the spring, but I'm not sure on that

  15. For all of us who are sweating bullets waiting on acceptance/rejection letters...

    Biol20fan replied to phoenixfire's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Congrats

  16. TEAS test question

    Biol20fan replied to icechick's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    At my school, you take it after you've been accepted into the program. But other schools might be different, so I'd suggest you contact the schools you are applying to and ask them. Talk to a...

  19. Things you would love to say to your fellow nursing students!

    Biol20fan replied to Faeriewand's topic in General Students

    Someone obviously doesn't have children... Maybe they should ask my kids. I'm sure they'd get an earful from them about all of the shots they've gotten!

  20. What do you want to tell Nursing Students?

    Biol20fan replied to jessiern's topic in General Nursing

    I am asking this as a soon-to-be RN student: Would a nurse (who is training a student) be bothered (for lack of a better term) if the student asked, "This is how we were taught in class to do x,y, and...

  22. suggestions on anatomy and phy books

    Biol20fan replied to carlarenee02's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Which book do you have? I took Anatomy and Phys as two separate classes, and the book we used in Anatomy (which in my school was Biol 20, hence my screen name ) was the tenth edition of Tortora and...

  23. Fetal pig

    Biol20fan replied to twinjeep97's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for that link! I took pictures of my fetal pig, and then labeled the different structures when I got the pictures back. I've always wondered what the people at the photo processing place...

  24. For all of us who are sweating bullets waiting on acceptance/rejection letters...

    Biol20fan replied to phoenixfire's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    My hubby didn't seem to understand why I got so emotional a couple of weeks ago when I was waiting to find out if I was accepted. He thought I was just nervous, that I thought I couldn't do it (the...

  25. Out of the mouths of babes

    Biol20fan replied to madwife2002's topic in International Nursing

    Ah, I just love the little ones! I had a c-section with my younger son, and one day he asked me, "Mommy, did they have to break your tummy to get me out?" Um, well yeah, kind of.
