  1. Microbiology - Fall 2008

    We start our unknowns on 11/4. I am very nervous because even though I have been doing the tests in lab and I made an awesome grade on our lab midterm....to be honest I don't really know what is...
  2. A&P class problems - need opinion

    Very very true. But the OP was talking about A&P and that is what I am taking right now and I have had many instances where once I saw the right answer as a choice I knew the answer, but it...
  3. Respiratory and breathing??

    Thanks that really helped. We had lecture over this on Thursday and this was the very first time in all of A&P I or II that I was like what the ???? My teacher is wonderful and he tests from his...
  4. Would this upset you?

    I too think you need to suck it up. Not that I wouldn't ****** that this happened. But I think that in nursing, or well in life generally, you have to be flexible to change. You are correct that...
  5. Respiratory and breathing??

    I think that is where I was getting confused too. You were right in your answer, it is just that RATE is what increases because you have too much CO2 and need to get rid of
  6. A&P class problems - need opinion

    i generally agree with you on this, however, for me sometimes i just draw a complete blank and when i see the answer in multiple choice form the answer comes to me. i know that on our lab practicals...
  7. Microbiology - Fall 2008

    I love the surprise of a higher grade!! On almost every test this semester we have had at least 2 points added with a question thrown out and on one test our teacher threw out like 4-5 questions,...
  8. Respiratory and breathing??

    Thanks for your help. Today we had lecture on this and I understand it more. I missed the question on a lab quiz. My teacher said that when you rebreathe air you are increasing your rate of breath....
  9. braggard in the classroom

    I do understand that you are just venting and I can feel your pain. But I wanted to point out that sometimes mom and dad can get their kids a job! These so-called helicopter parents are popping up...
  10. WHY ARE NURSES SO RUDE to CNA's?

    I am sorry you are having a difficult time. I guess I was lucky because back when I worked as a CNA I never met a rude nurse. Everyone was always very helpful and just happy to have me there. Try not...
  11. Discussing Grades with Other Students

    Personally I have no problem sharing my grades. However, if I ask how someone did and they say ok or good that is fine by me and I would not push. In my class grades are a common topic and a way...
  12. What make you practicing nursing in Dallas area?

    I think pay here in DFW is awesome, especially when you consider the cost of living. I have a friend making $40 and hour but she does work in the ICU. Some of the agencies are paying in the mid to...
  13. Getting involved or best to steer clear?

    I think for the most part that I would stay out of it. But if you really wanted to let the instructor could you leave an anonymous letter for her, giving her the heads up. I know we can leave mail...
  14. Vent..Cheating Students..and my bad test grade!!!

    At my school the same thing applies. If you are found to know that cheating is going on then you are also held accountable for not informing the instructor. Our instructors are very strict about...
  15. Microbiology - Fall 2008

    If you like the prof and realize that your issues are with how you got started then if you take it over I would stick with the same prof. That way you at least know what her style is and how she...
  16. I think I am being targeted in nursing school.

    again daytonite is right on the money with this one. i also felt like you were not listening to what your instructors are saying. personally i did not think that the email that was sent to you was...
  17. heh.. i need a girlfriend apparently.

    The first thought that came to my mind also was that she was hitting on him. Didn't he say that he ran into the teacher and this wasn't in class then I suppose. That is why I thought he was being...
  18. Have tgo share the good news

    Congratulations!!! I think that I would like the 8 week flex class. I really like summer school because during a full 16 week semester I get bored. How did you like the flex schedule? And again WAY...
  19. Venting about classmates with families...

    I guess I must be lucky. My husband helps me clean, he does almost all of the laundary, and he is the one who always cooks. Now not to say that he is perfect or that I have to get onto him...
  20. Please Help me decide what job to take!!!!!!

    Hmmmm...now I am leaning towards Parkland. I would want to get the most experience that I could. Plus if you have to train there anyway and you start to get comfortable I wouldn't want to leave. I...

    The CNA course at my college is 2 weeks but some are 5-8 weeks. Really just depends on the

  23. how to become certified as boxtox injector

    I know that most of the ob/gyns in my area are now performing these services. Personally I think it gives the impression that they are only out for money. The "premier" ob/gyn in my area, well let...
  24. Doing an assignment...can someone help me??

    Daytonite you are AMAZING and I always appreciate your responses to the posts. I am not in NS yet but I like to read all of these posts because they do give me insight. And I especially appreciate the...
  25. Question about going to school abroad?

    So from what you have said it is possible to be US educated as a RN and then work in another country? I am asking because my hubby and I want to eventually move to another country or countries. We...
