    OnTheRoad replied to bblair's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    We have to take it after being admitted into the program also. I am taking it this spring along with lifespan, OB, and Med Surg. My assessment professor teaches Patho at my school and on final review...

  3. Hey whats those logos?

    OnTheRoad replied to Cherish's topic in General Nursing

    I did it... I pressed all the buttons. Some of this stuff is pretty cool, some allow you to basically bookmark specific pages in a web based "favorites" type of thing so you can access your pages and...

  4. Injections: to pinch or not to pinch

    OnTheRoad replied to TRINI_RN's topic in General Students

    I wish the nurse who gave me a shot today had done that. She hit my bone and I am soooooo sore, I have pain going halfway down my

  5. stuck on goals for unresponsive pt

    OnTheRoad replied to mbgirl81's topic in General Students

    In my school we are being taught to qualify our diagnosis using secondary to (medical diagnosis) routinely. We can only use the medical diagnosis as a secondary to, but are expected to do so whenever...

    OnTheRoad replied to mmr2's topic in General Students

    Per my class schedule, clinical starts at 7:30 AM. We are required to be there by 7:25 AM to get assignment of client and go over the days routine. If we are not there at 7:25 we recieve a VNS...

  7. Nursing school schools with short waiting lists

    OnTheRoad replied to bj2006's topic in General Students

    I don't know about the main campus, but I didn't find Purdue University North Central hard to get into. I think they went largely on grades, there was no entrance exam (well so far anyway), and the...

  8. First clinical today... feeling sad

    OnTheRoad posted a topic in General Students

    I had my first clinical today at the nursing home. I was excited and nervous. Most of it was orientation, then we did an assessment... I assumed I would feel fine about that. I was terrified when we...

  9. First clinical today... feeling sad

    OnTheRoad replied to OnTheRoad's topic in General Students

    Thank you all so very much for your kind words, advice, and encouragement. It is good to know others have felt like I did and got through it. Thank you Jov for explaining the no talking about things...

  10. Getting ORganized?

    OnTheRoad replied to HM2VikingRN's topic in General Students

    I decided to stay with the system I know from prereq's since it familiar... with some variations. I got a binder for each class. I like the clear views so I can put schedules inside. I have one folder...

    OnTheRoad replied to Princess74's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    LOL ours were similar "oh oh oh, to touch and feel valley girl's lady parts, Ah Heaven!" And "Some say marry money but my brother says big boobs matter

  12. Babbling/Worried/Advice seeking....

    OnTheRoad replied to TinaCMT's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    One of the best things you can do with any testing is study and then learn to relax. Think about it.. what is your worst enemy when you get in that desk with a #2? Nerves! If you work yourself up,...

  13. Disrespecting the cadavers

    OnTheRoad replied to Rohan's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That would have pissed me off also. There is humor in our A&P labs, but noone ever jokes about our people ( and dead or not, they are sure as heck people). We get angry when others are too...

    OnTheRoad replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hey one can dream! We had a chem professor that lasted 3 semesters because people didn't like her and didn't want to study. I can say for her that she was aproachable and she did cover everything on...

    OnTheRoad replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I may or may not wait to see how people did on the exams, but I think the head of the department really needs to get a look at one of her exams along with a copy of notes from lecture (maybe even a...

  17. *** A&P II Winter 2006 Club ***

    OnTheRoad replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Our A&P class got 1 shot at extra credit last semester. 5-15 points for dressing up for halloween LOL! I wore a tight black outfit covered with sticky foam cutouts of humerus bones and I taped...

    OnTheRoad replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    OnTheRoad replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Every instructor has their own peculiar form of torture when it comes to the unkown I think, however what you said is the general way of things. Grab your unknown, innoculate slants and plates and...

  22. Can I REALLY be a nurse?

    OnTheRoad replied to zoprack's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I don't know too many people personally that didn't start out with some fear about how they would handle the "ick" factor. Before I started A&P I was very concerned that I would spend every day...

  23. Micro peeps!

    OnTheRoad replied to allthingsbright's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The studying sometimes goes into my brain and sticks... sometimes not. I have 2 quizzes in Micro monday (one lab quiz, one lecture quiz), and then our exam is on thursday. I also have an A&P exam...

    OnTheRoad replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I believe we have a flavobacterium (I am really lucky we don't need to know the species, just the genus and a few tests we could perform to find the species). The tables in bergey's manual are making...

  25. A&P 1 & 2 during the summer, good or bad idea?

    OnTheRoad replied to jaysma's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Just goes to show how different professors (and students I suppose) can change the dynamics of a class. To me chem was a 3, A&P (both my semesters are mostly combined) I would say a 7 or 8, and...
