Because of comments like those on this thread, which, I have received in person, I have completely stopped telling people I am a direct-entry student. I am very discouraged by the lack of support I have gotten, and fear that staff nurses where I wor...

Another student poted this book list on Amazon: http://tinyurl.com/gwrh7

What class schedule? Also, in the email from ***, she said something about a book list. Have you guys received an "official" bok list? Person's name edited from post

Yeah, I understand how you feel. The job I had last year was like that, I had to quit right before Christmas to move down here. I told my supervisor, who I trusted, but I didn't tell my boss til right before my scheduled vacation for Christmas. We di...

I gave my two week notice at work today. I guess its just now becoming real to me that I AM starting nursing school in three weeks. Even though I'm excited about becoming a nurse and I hated my lab jobs, its still scary to quit and step off into the...

I agree that it was an awful career move! But I still have such fond memories of that show as a kid. I remember seeing the mugshot on the news and telling my Dad "That's not Pee-Wee! Pee-Wee wears a bowtie!" BTW I promise I'm not retarded sitting aro...

I just finished anatomy, but I took the test yesterday and still felt the same as you. I recognized the terms and had a lot of "well, I think this answer sounds familiar for no particular reason..." Complete change of subject: while I am typing, gues...

I took the MAT and thought it much easier than the GRE, though truth be told, I chose it this time because it was cheaper and shorter! Everyone is different and NONE of these standardized tests really measure how good of a person/nurse/underwater-bas...

I am definitely at least skimming the whole thing, but I mean, 3/4 of it is "can you read? and can you count?" Sure there are some calculations and what is up with this apothecary system thing? What Shakespeare reading nut actually thinks in terms of...

Yes, I noticed that too.

Seriously, 500mhz... busted USB etc etc etc. The thing buzzed and clanked and burped more than it "computed". There's no help for it. It's on its way to the back of my closet! Just wish there was something better I could do with it. No one would buy ...

I'm pretty handy myself, but there wasn't anything that could be done with my old laptop: 500 mhz processor, 256mb ram, usb ports died, power button usually didn't work , BSD 3-4x/mo (blue screen of death), track pad didn't work, sometimes half the k...

I was born and raised in the south, lived here my whole life in large cities and small towns. I have never seen a pattern of large numbers of people not washing thier hands. This is completely new to me. I wash my hands A LOT. My first career was in ...

Yeah! Can't wait to start school now! My new computer came!

I have an aunt who works for a company that teaches facilities how to apply the Lean/Six Sigma concepts. As she has explained it to me, it was originally a manufacturing concept developed by Toyota. Its about little change that make a big differece. ...

Hope your friend is okay. I live about as close to Emory as you can get without sleeping in the parking deck.

i'm in. pm me too.

Good luck on your exam, my final in A&P is Tuesday. Glad you guys are still around!

Make sure that whatever you use at work is compatable with latex gloves (or non-latex as the case may be). If you have any input on the soap you use at work or can get free samples of it, I really like Acute-Kare by Steris. Its a really great moistur...

Shopping around I got the books down to about $500, but haven't bought them yet. Try bigwords.com it will find the cheapest prices for you.
