    Pecked2DthByChickens replied to PreNurseKirk's topic in General Students

    I bought the book box and wish I hadn't. I have used very very little of the books from it. I won't buy them in the future. I got the red Fundamentals book also, which was a big help - some of the...

    That's ok Linz, I did pretty good, just forgot to put my gloves on at the right time. I had stuck them in my pocket and forgot about them - argh! I think I got a 97. When do you have the Meds...

  9. El Centro/ Northlake-----Spring 07

    Pecked2DthByChickens replied to Spill's topic in General Students

    Well, I just finished and passed. I forgot to put my gloves on until halfway through, as I reached in my pocket and felt them - ARGH. Oh well, I got a 96 so I am happy. And yes, we had to do a...

    Pecked2DthByChickens replied to PreNurseKirk's topic in General Students

    Yippee! I passed my check-off! I made the mistake of washing my hands before lowering the bed and not after...so I lost a few points. So I think I got a 97. Three in the class failed. Tomorrow we...

    Good idea. I have looked at the lecture notes, handouts, and Evolve study questions but I guess I forgot about the actual Study Guide. I'll try that. I am just having trouble picking out the main...

    Pecked2DthByChickens replied to Spill's topic in General Students

    OK...so how many of you were not so excited about nursing school after the first few weeks? The beginner material is so boring. I guess I am just eager for the biology portion of nursing...not the...
