    AtomicWoman replied to PreRN Katie's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Sorry your teacher is so horrid! If you'll look on page 11 of this thread, you'll see a bunch of helpful microbiology websites I posted, with some annotations. I posted one additional website on p. 13...

    AtomicWoman replied to xoyw01's topic in General Students

    Everyone I know who has had a hip replacement felt MUCH better once they were healed and they kind of kicked themselves for delaying it. BUT, they all needed more than 6 weeks before they were able...

  5. Digestive System

    AtomicWoman replied to Javeed's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Get a long piece of yarn or string. Put the same number of knots in it as there are organs in the digestive system. If you want, you can put some knots close together representing, say, the divisions...

    AtomicWoman replied to SerenityR.N.'s topic in New Jersey Nursing

    I loved reading this story!! Why don't you post it or something like it, in the Articles section of Allnurses.com. Thank you for sharing your

  7. Well, I think I just flunked out of nursing school today.

    AtomicWoman replied to justme1972's topic in General Students

    What great news! And I love the way you were essentially being told, "You've got it. We know you've got it. Now hang in there!". :) Your post should be a sticky in this forum with a title like "To...

    AtomicWoman replied to NurseBettyICU's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    How about getting trichinosis from undercooked BEAR steaks? http://community.seattletimes.nwsource.com/archive/?date=19931225&slug=1738693 or from raw COUGAR meat?...

  9. Well, I think I just flunked out of nursing school today.

    AtomicWoman replied to justme1972's topic in General Students

    I couldn't agree more. It ain't over 'til it's over. And then, if need be, you can ask for a do-over. Stay positive and come here for

  10. Chemistry Fall 2008

    AtomicWoman replied to CracklinRose's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I posted this link in another chemistry-related discussion, but wanted to post it here as well. It's a great resource I found for free chemistry help. Much better than Yahoo Answers. It's...

  11. Drowning in chemistry

    AtomicWoman replied to Jenpea's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just wanted to post a link to a great resource I found for free chemistry help. Much better than Yahoo Answers. It's http://mychemistrytutor.com There are high school, AP, General (college) and...

  12. writing a paper

    AtomicWoman replied to dallet6's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I think I can help you with this, speaking as a former college professor who made her students write until they were ready to scream. :) What he's saying is he doesn't want to get a paper that is...

  13. W's on your transcript..opinions please

    AtomicWoman replied to hushpupgrl's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    If YOU bring up the Ws in a personal statement or interview and try to explain them, it may open up a can of worms. It MIGHT sound like you "couldn't handle it" and it could sow some seeds of doubt in...

  14. I am applying for student loan and I have bad credit

    AtomicWoman replied to jimbojonesey's topic in General Students

    With most (not all) lenders, your school has to "certify" you. This means that the school tells the lender what your anticipated expenses are (I don't think there's much detail in the numbers.) With...

  15. Things to get out of the way NOW if you are starting in the Spring

    AtomicWoman replied to AtomicWoman's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Anyone planning to clean there house like crazy before starting school? I am not a good housekeeper, but I figure it will be the last time my house gets cleaned for at least a year!

  16. Chemistry Fall 2008

    AtomicWoman replied to CracklinRose's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I had to smile when I read your post. I am just the opposite! I am always saying, "Chemistry is EVERYTHING!". :) But I suspect most students are not so enthusiastic... My professor told me on more...

  18. I am applying for student loan and I have bad credit

    AtomicWoman replied to jimbojonesey's topic in General Students

    Since your FAFSA is done, look at the SAR they should have sent you by email. The SAR will have a line at the top called EFC (expected family contribution). The EFC will impact your total financial...

  19. Thomas Jefferson FACT Program

    AtomicWoman replied to jello18966's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    My two cents: take the online practice test. If you do even halfway decent, schedule to take the MAT at the next available date. You already know that your score doesn't matter much in terms of...

  20. Severe PMS issues

    AtomicWoman replied to Jw1724's topic in General Students

    If you're taking Evening Primrose Oil, remember that it is high in Omega 6s and you need to take more Omega 3s to balance that out. Don't take my word for it; Google it. I'm glad the EPO is helping...

  23. New Grad & No one will hire me

    AtomicWoman replied to cmh25's topic in New Jersey Nursing

    Just curious: most home health care agencies want you to have 2 years of experience, or at least the ones I've checked out. The agency that made you the offer is willing to take you right out of...

  24. New pathphys case

    AtomicWoman replied to cmonkey's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hey, cmonkey, I was just thinking of you. Do you read the CME cases on Medscape? They are great! Since you love patho and diagnostic puzzles, if you haven't checked them out, you might want to. You'll...

  25. The "Alternate" List???

    AtomicWoman replied to pepperoni's topic in General Students

    Third on the list sounds really good! If I got that letter, I would prepare *as if* I had been admitted. That way, when your acceptance letter comes, you won't be running around getting vaccinations,...
