  2. Need help getting my foot in the door; any suggestions?

    premedturnednursing replied to ADNStudentTX's topic in Texas Nursing

    I don't know how much any of those positions pay, but I would just say get in where you fit in, and if all else fails, volunteer there until something comes open! That way you will have already been...

  3. TCU or TWU BSN Program

    premedturnednursing replied to modelmama07's topic in Texas Nursing

    Maybe I'm being overly sensitive, but I kind of take offense to the statement that TCU students "dish out thousands of dollars extra to wear the purple scrubs, LOL!" I am certainly not going there...

    premedturnednursing replied to moncj66's topic in General Students

  8. Venting about classmates with families...

    premedturnednursing replied to moncj66's topic in General Students

    I think the resentment only comes because each group thinks it has it harder than the other and there truly is no way to measure. We all have our own "life crap" to deal with which may add to or take...

  9. grades

    premedturnednursing posted a topic in General Students

    I know I have posted on here before about my grades....but I consider that somewhat "anonymous". I worked really hard and just wanted to share with someone without being labeled a braggart/pompous....

  10. grades

    premedturnednursing replied to premedturnednursing's topic in General Students

    I want to add that I NEVER ask ppl how they did....since I know it makes me uncomfortable, I don't want to put them in that same position. I think I'll just start saying "I did well" although I have...

  11. Venting about classmates with families...

    premedturnednursing replied to moncj66's topic in General Students

    premedturnednursing replied to cherubhipster's topic in General Nursing

    I feel almost the same way. I am sick of medsurg and oncology. It's just not my cup of tea...but I take comfort in knowing that it's only for this semester and next. And I can do anything for 2...
