  1. Ivy Tech Books 1st semester nursing

    FireFly07 replied to wishNhopeNdreamN's topic in Indiana Nursing

    We had to get a Fundamentals book, pharmacology, dosage calc, Med surg, can't remember what else. I know it cost me a fortune

  2. Ivy Tech: Dosage Calc. & Medical Terminology

    FireFly07 replied to stupidcancer's topic in Indiana Nursing

    I absolutely agree with this. In my experience in nursing school so far-they've not gone over the prefixes and suffixes of words or root words and if you don't know those IMO it takes a lot more time...

  3. Did RNs Have To Practice Bathing Each Other In NS

    FireFly07 replied to me-too's topic in General Students

    We had to make sure to pick someone that was not our friend for all activities. They wanted us to get used to working with different people (ones we were not familiar with) and they wanted us to...

  4. Lap Tops at Ivy Tech?

    FireFly07 replied to stupidcancer's topic in Indiana Nursing

    I also bought an ACER at WM and love it. It's super fast and works great. I'll never pay a ton for a computer

  5. Used Chem book

    FireFly07 replied to muncieLPN34's topic in Indiana Nursing

    Thanks! I feel better all ready. I was really nervous signing up for the class, but I'm thinking I'll probably survive. I hope

  6. Used Chem book

    FireFly07 replied to muncieLPN34's topic in Indiana Nursing

    I'm taking that instructor's online chem class in the fall. I go to school with a lot of people who took the same class and said it seems overwhelming at first-but then it levels out. They all liked...

    FireFly07 replied to IndyMitchell's topic in Indiana Nursing

    I started in August (07). We had the option of going thru the summer, so I took it! I'm not an

  8. Columbus IVY TECH students

    FireFly07 replied to IndyMitchell's topic in Indiana Nursing

    That's who I had. I also had her for my first semester lab, my Med Surg rotation, and OB/Peds! I'd have her for every single class if I could. You may have to wait until tomorrow to see your...

  9. Did RNs Have To Practice Bathing Each Other In NS

    FireFly07 replied to me-too's topic in General Students

    We had to do baths (shorts/tank top) complete with washing hair, brushing teeth, etc. We also practiced vitals on each other, as well as putting someone on, taking them off of a (full) bedpan. We...

  10. Ivy Tech: Dosage Calc. & Medical Terminology

    FireFly07 replied to stupidcancer's topic in Indiana Nursing

    I took medical terminology as a filler class a couple years ago. I think it was helpful and I'm glad I took it. It's nothing earth-shattering, but it has definitely come in handy. As for dosage...

    FireFly07 replied to IndyMitchell's topic in Indiana Nursing

    Great job on completing your first semester! I go to Ivy Tech in Columbus-will graduate in December. Have fun in 114-I just got finished with that class last week :). You'll have to let me know who...

  12. Which Ivy Tech is best?

    FireFly07 replied to Innurse78's topic in Indiana Nursing

    I did all of my co-req's before starting the RN program and it was a life-saver!! I can't imagine what it would be like to have more classes on top of what I already

  13. Which Ivy Tech is best?

    FireFly07 replied to Innurse78's topic in Indiana Nursing

    I attend the Columbus campus and I'm in my first semester for the RN program. For the most part it's a great program-there just seems to be so much chaos this first semester-but we've been told that...

  14. IBC - have you heard of this?

    FireFly07 replied to misserella8036's topic in General Nursing

    I actually have heard of this...and happen to read a blog of a lady that was just diagnosed with IBC. Cancer is such a scary disease as it is-but knowing how "sneaky" it can be sometimes is even...

    FireFly07 replied to mcmike55's topic in Ohio Nursing

    I was born and raised in the Cincinnati (east side)...but I live in Indy now. I love Indiana-but Ohio is always close in my heart. Everything on that list was so true. And Skyline

    FireFly07 replied to alexillytom's topic in General Nursing

    Congratulations! It put a smile on my face to read that :). All of you that have made it thru give me great hope. Hope you find a fun way to celebrate!

  17. TEAS Scores???

    FireFly07 replied to sockmonkey70's topic in General Students

    It all depends on the scores of everyone else trying to enter the program right now. Some schools are super hard to get into-others are not so hard. Overall your score is pretty good-but it just...
