  1. My class must be bad.

    WOW only 5% ours is 20 points! And our tests this semester average around 60 points each - so 20 off is quite a chunk . So I would go in on my death bed - to hard to pass otherwise.....
  2. My Fall Semester schedule

    Ok...not to rain on your enthusiasm but OMG you are crazy I sure hope you can do it. That is an awfully tough load, especiallyfor a freshman. I agree with AmyLiz on the Stats thing - I took it by itself last summer and it was brutal - I had to ...
  3. Hi I am doing a term paper on my patient that had a colostomy w/hartman and I was wondering if you could tell me what it means when the report says... "it looks a little dusky..." is he refering to the color of the stoma? Also what the heck is "Parac...
  4. What does it mean when a report says..

    Thanks I thought so but didn't want to quote it wrong in my apa paper. I used that websight for a few of my references - it was really helpful. Now I just have to put it all together to get 13 pages - thanks for your time . Have a great weekend :)
  5. What does it mean when a report says..

    Well I think I understand the terms now - looking up seperately helped :) But I'd still like to know if "dusky" would be terming the stoma color or what was in the bag??

  10. Have you used this??

  11. Asking for Material Early

  12. Whats the youngest baby you've seen survive???

    I have a very good friend who had her little boy at 23weeks 1lb - 1oz and "C" is 3 now and is as normal as my little 3yo (though doesn't tend to do well when he gets a bad cold - usually ends up with low O2 sats and needs some O2 therapy about once ...

    I am so sorry I am feeling that way too...I came into nursing 150 with a 4.0 and got 70's on my first 2 exams. I like the advise to "shake it off" and proceed full speed ahead - your grades show you are an awesome student! Good luck.
