  1. Sad, need to vent

    ally21 replied to pashark's topic in General Students

    Aww, your post made me tear up a little. You will get through this and in the end it will be worth it. I can relate because I was pregnant in nursing school. I never really had time to fully enjoy...

  2. Is Phlebotomy taught in Nursing school?

    ally21 replied to amanda1266's topic in General Students

    No, which I thought was kind of nuts. We learned how to place ivs in the very last nursing lab of school. My nursing school really should re-evaluate their nursing labs and put some of the content...

    ally21 replied to anonymous1919's topic in General Students

  4. Any mothers in nursing school with preschool-age children?

    ally21 replied to emptyboxcars's topic in General Students

    I got pregnant shortly after my first semester of nursing school. I planned to go back right after having my baby, but she arrived late. She wound up being delivered the day I was supposed to start...

  5. Struggling.....Should I do Kaplan or Hurst?

    ally21 replied to helpmepass's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    My school made it mandatory for us to take the Kaplan review. It cost each of us over $300. Had us take their review sessions 4 straight days in a row right after graduation. We were in the...

  7. Ideas for a clinical "cheat sheet" ?

    ally21 replied to AOx1's topic in General Students

    I'm in my final semester of school, but please... come be my clinical instructor! You seem like an awesome first year teacher. I wish mine was more like that instead of slapping our hands when we...

    ally21 replied to CariocaRN's topic in General Students

  9. Spring 2010 Graduates

    ally21 replied to dannibee's topic in General Students

    What type of clinical areas will you experience during your last semester? To be honest, I'm not totally sure. I was more focused on getting through NUR203. I know we'll be on the med/surg unit....

  10. I am such a dissapointment.........

    ally21 replied to amaxiechRN2011's topic in General Students

    Oh dear, I wish I could give you a hug as well. I know how disappointing it is to not make it through a class. The only failures out there I see are ones who didn't give it a try since they were too...

  11. Failed my first semester of fundamentals/med surg (advice?)

    ally21 replied to Ava M.'s topic in General Students

    Chin up, girl! You gave it your best shot for someone who wasn't interested in the program to begin with. You didn't disappoint anyone probably and they're still proud of you. One suggestion is...

  12. How much is school costing you?

    ally21 replied to tbell2's topic in General Students

    The spring semester's going to cost $1,602. I registered this morning and got the bill. Dunno how I'm going to pay for it since I can't get financial aid. Ah well could be worse, right? Beats...

    ally21 replied to superramvette's topic in General Students

    Well that stinks! Congrats on doing so well your first semester.

  14. ASN vs. BSN

    ally21 replied to brunetteqt's topic in Diploma, ADN, BSN

    I think it's just a rumor. I go to an ADN school and the instructors have addressed this issue. They still encourage us to make the RN-BSN bridge though and prepare us for

  15. Tuition payment or reimbursment

    ally21 replied to tmattd78's topic in General Students

    There's a scholarship program at my school for people who wish to work at WVHC (it's in northeast PA).... Only problem is that you must maintain a 3.0 average throughout the entire program which is...

    ally21 replied to wcu_nurse's topic in General Students

  19. Having a boyfriend while in nursing school....

    ally21 replied to sheridan3456's topic in General Students

    It's possible to have a relationship while you're in nursing school. Your partner just has to realize that your priority right now is doing well in school. You just have to meet the right person who...

  20. I'm sad :( Nursing is Hard!!

    ally21 replied to cyncopia's topic in General Students

    How many times are you allowed to perform a skill until you pass? My school gives you 3 tries which I'm greatful for. So far I've had skill tests on: B/P + apical heart rate, injections, sterile...

  21. Share why your current job sucks and what you hope will be different in nursing!

    ally21 replied to WantAccel.BSN's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I worked in a potato chip factory before going into nursing school. Who'd wanna do that the rest of their life? Not me! It wasn't bad and I am glad I got the experience of working in a factory to...

  22. I was wondering which is harder Micro or A&P2?

    ally21 replied to Iwannabeababynurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took APII along with micro last spring. Micro was extremely difficult for me because there was a lot of work. We had to write papers during our spring break along with one toward the end of the...

    ally21 replied to FNPhopeful's topic in General Students

    Gotta love know-it-alls. I remember during an orientation for NUR101 to welcome us in the program one girl spoke up saying how she was a CNA and asked if she could take the test LPNs took so she...

    ally21 replied to ErinRena's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Yikes, $200 on a stethoscope for the start of nursing school? Mine was around $20 at the bookstore. I don't plan on getting a really good one until I graduate. I forget the brand name of mine, but...
