  1. Fundamentals test

    SingDanceRunLife replied to cmonkey's topic in General Students

    I had my first test on Monday. It was nothing like yours though! Ours was on medical asepsis, infection control and

  2. Whole class got same steth...

    SingDanceRunLife replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    Why on earth why not what? Not wear them around our necks? Because they get more contaminated that way...WAY more

  3. OVERWHELMED....need advice!!

    SingDanceRunLife replied to EatLoveNurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    A&P, in my opinion, is not at all an indicator of how well you'll do in nursing school. The content and tests are extremely different. Granted, I have only had 1 test so far, but I've done a lot...

  4. A&P, Eng composition ,Gen Psych and intro to Soc

    SingDanceRunLife replied to JonB04's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's pretty much exactly what I took my first semester...plus world civilizations and a freshman advisement seminar. It's not too

  5. Whole class got same steth...

    SingDanceRunLife replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    We've been told NOT to wear our steths around our necks...ever! So far, we have only used them once, in lab...we don't start clinicals for awhile yet...but I'm planning on having a better steth before...

  6. Cheap steth with good sound?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I'm a 19 year old college sophomore with no job...I don't have money to spend on things other than essentials like food. I also don't want anything expensive that'll just walk away on me during NS....

  7. Who's taking A&P II this summer? (2010)

    SingDanceRunLife posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm two days away from being done with A&P I, and A&P II is a 6 week class online this summer. Who will be taking A&P II as

  8. Whole class got same steth...

    SingDanceRunLife replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I'm planning on getting a nice® one...soon...ours kinda suck. I don't have a lot of money though, and I don't want to order online because I need to

  9. First week of school! :-)

    SingDanceRunLife replied to CrazziiRN913's topic in General Students

    Woohoo! I got an 80 on my first test! And today, we did our first 2 hours of our vitals lab and learned how to do BP...so I have a bunch of guinea pigs lined up to practice

  10. First week of school! :-)

    SingDanceRunLife replied to CrazziiRN913's topic in General Students

    I started the 23rd as well! My first week was just crazy! They had us there every day of the week (we're generally only supposed to be there 4 days/week) at crazy hours and for super long days...and...

  11. Do you actually READ your nursing books or just skim?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to starmickey03's topic in General Students

    I do both. I skim/read only the necessary parts in full when doing the homework, and then go back later to read/reread the

  12. Any advice on how to approach all of the assigned reading?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to MunkeyLuv's topic in General Students

    I only started NS a week ago, but what I've done is read the necessary bits and skim the rest of reading in order to get the homework done, and then later go back and read the remainder at a later...

  13. How do you take notes for class, anyway?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to allthingsbright's topic in General Students

    I'm really lucky, and the teachers at my school all print out handouts that are fill in the blank notes...so we know exactly what info we need, and can write it in and highlight and all that jazz, and...

  14. Just wondering about you guys....(I have questions)

    SingDanceRunLife replied to Frazzled_One's topic in General Students

    My skin has had pimples all over it for the past week and a half, and having my period last week didn't help that at all...and I'm getting better at functioning with less sleep, and being able to go...

  15. Does anyone get their books unbound?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to my3suns's topic in General Students

    Am I the only one who hates unbound books? My math book for my intermediate algebra class was unbound and I found it so obnoxious! My developmental psych book for this semester is unbound as well....

  16. What do you eat at 5am for breakfast?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to sandyfeet's topic in General Students

    I don't want to be caffeine dependent. I'm not planning on drinking coffee unless I'm absolutely desperate. I've felt this way for awhile, and I'm not changing just because I'm in nursing

  17. What books did you have to get?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to Kaychell's topic in General Students

    LOTS! Nursing Interventions and Clinical Skills Mosby's Dictionary of Medicine, Nursing and Health Professions Basic Nursing - Essentials for Practice Nursing diagnosis Application to Clinical...

  18. What do you eat at 5am for breakfast?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to sandyfeet's topic in General Students

    I don't eat before I go to school. I bring something with me to eat during our first break (we start class at 8am, and get a 10 minute break every hour). I don't know what I'll do with...

  19. Only 2nd week into school and already stressed. Anyone else?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to peas&carrots's topic in General Students

    I'm not even a week through (well, if you count orientation last week then I am)...but I feel the same way as you. I'm so tired and so stressed...and I'm really just hoping that once I get into the...

  20. What bag do u bring to school?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to Newbiestudent's topic in General Students

    That just shows how all programs are different. We were told not to bring our books unless our instructor specifically says to for a certain day, and that's very rare. I just started, and I've been...

  21. Clinical Parking

    SingDanceRunLife replied to TmC1999's topic in General Students

    That stinks! We're lucky and get to park in the garage (though we have to be on the 7th or 8th floor)...and there's an indoor bridge from the 6th floor to the hospital

  22. Shopping for Nursing School

    SingDanceRunLife replied to SCSUStudent's topic in General Students

    I bought: - Notebooks (totally unneeded since we're given packets for each lecture that are fill in the blank for us to take notes on) - Pens - Pencils - Highlighters - 3" binder (might need another...

  23. SO how was your first day of nursing school?

    SingDanceRunLife replied to cjungen's topic in General Students

    My first day was far from fun or easy! We dove right into the material that we'll be tested on next Monday, only a week after starting! We had: - Our first assignment due in the box before class...

  24. What does your uniform look like?

    SingDanceRunLife posted a topic in General Students

    I just got my uniform the other day, and went with my friend to get hers yesterday... We have white Landau tops and lab coats, and Caribbean blue Cherokee pants: We also have to wear all white...

  25. Whole class got same steth...

    SingDanceRunLife replied to SingDanceRunLife's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    We're allowed to use any steth we want...but my school is nice enough to provide us with ones if we don't want to buy
