1. Is it possible to have such a passion to Oncology??

   calledtonurse replied to goodspiritsRN's topic in Oncology

   Absolutely! I never thought I would like oncology when I started nursing school, then I got a taste of it! I love it. I completed my professional residency in oncology this summer and have just started my internship. If it is something you are pa...

2. Clinials & Nurses

   calledtonurse replied to RheatherN's topic in General Nursing

   I know this must be frustrating for you, but go into each clinical day with an open mind, open heart, and know that it is not you. Sometimes it's just the mix of nurses on a particular floor and the dynamic they have working together. I have seen a...

3. Hit all time low

   calledtonurse replied to JentheRN05's topic in General Nursing

   I wish there was something that I could say that would make this better for you, but, unfortunately, there's not. Please know that you are not alone. I have done this dance with my husband for 16 years, of which the last 8 have been medicated (the ...

5. TCU Anybody???

   calledtonurse replied to panzyo3's topic in Texas

   Your 3.5 should be fine. I am finishing up the ABT program right now. I went in with a 3.85, but know that others had lower GPAs. Keep in mind that your GPA is important, but so are your scores on the NET, entrance essays, etc. Best of luck!

6. Threatened dismissal because of wrinkly clothes :0(

   calledtonurse replied to hotdog19d's topic in General Students

   I feel your pain! I had the exact same thing happen to me during clinicals. Nevermind the wrinkles in other peoples' scrubs, I was the one who got called on it. Now, it's a huge joke in our clinical group. Since that day, I always iron & starc...

   calledtonurse replied to Mansfield_chick's topic in Texas

   I'm at TCU right now in the ABT program. If you take your pre-reqs there, you are automatically in the nursing program as long as you have the grade. Good luck

9. I failed the NET...................................

   calledtonurse replied to Princess74's topic in Pre-Nursing

   Hey Princess74 - The NET Study Guide is exactly the same as the test. I couldn't believe that itwas down to the same number of each type of questions for the math portion. Take the 2 practice tests, check answers, and don't freak out. I began to p...

    calledtonurse replied to Princess74's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Just go through the study guide a million times. They are exactly alike. I used to freak out when I took calculus. My husband advised me to drink a beer.... It turned out, all I needed was to relax. This has worked for me ever since. Stick with ...

14. Who all is waiting??

    calledtonurse replied to momto2beauties's topic in Texas

    I think the postman hurries past my house now since I either seem to be "playing" outside with my 3 yr old, or sitting at the front of the house. Maybe the selection committees should think about sending out Xanax with every completed app they receiv...

15. NET Study guide measure up?

    calledtonurse replied to TRINI_RN's topic in Pre-Nursing

    I took the NET in December. I thought the the math portion was exactly like the study guide. The reading comprehension was much harder on the test than in the study guide. I guess it was the luck of the draw for me. Pay very careful attention to t...
