I was wondering about this myself as my school does not require pharm at all. Not in the prerequisites, not in pre-clinical sequence.

If I were to have a son, I would go ahead and have him circumsized. One, it is cleaner and causes less infections because with the foreskin, bacteria can grow and here come the infections, second, my husband is circumsized, third, all the men in my family are circumsized and fourth, I dated someone that still had his foreskin and his member always carried a, let's say scent to it, and lastly, I know of three men that had to have circumsions at an older age which was very painful, one tore the foreskin while having sex and there was blood everywhere. Traumatizing experience.

I am in a CNA class and I was getting 100's on all the test. Then I got a 90 and I had nightmares. I can't imagine what I'll be like when I get into the RN program. I start Chemistry and Math for Health Sciences on June 2. Any advice on how not to get so stressed out about grades. Obviously we all want to do well, and do need to do well but to put all that pressure on ourselves, that is not healthy.

I say the opposite of nursing is the public's image of nurses vs. the actual job of the nurses. Like the all famous white skirt uniform with the cap. The fact that nurses just hold the patient's hand and put a wet wash cloth on the person's brow for fever to come down. Nurses do much, much more than that. On the other hand the opposite of nursing can also be the patient. The person recieving the care vs. the caregiver

I meant to say IF the clear polish is allowed in your new hospital.

Did you see other nurses with acrylics at the hospital? Take a look at the policy book. This way you'll be prepared to either keep them or take them off. If you do need to take them off get regular manicures with clear polish (that is allowed).
