So I am a freshmen in college (19 years old) and will be entering my sophomore year in August. I am very fortunate to have been awarded provisional acceptance to a medical school as long as my GPA stays above a 3.5. I have been debating over the pa...

I am not sure where exactly I see myself after school, just somewhere in medicine. Whether it is beginning to open my own practice, giving anesthesia to patients, working with pediatrics, anything. Nursing: Work 3-4 days a week, not on call. ...

I have a pretty random question, I guess. I see some of yall saying that you charge like $4 for a sick call, etc. Who gets this money?

Hello. I am a highschool junior taking AP English. This is what I would change if I was peer-editing: I am proud to say that I have accomplished a lot in my life considering my childhood and family background. I had my daughter at the age of 16, and...

I have been an extra on One Tree Hill and a pilot show called East Bound and Down. I got paid around $60 each time for standing in the stands and they fed us lunch/dinner. Pretty nice except for the long wait inbetween shots.

Hey everyone. I am a junior in high school and we have one week to decide on a topic for our senior project. We will have to write an eight to ten page research paper on our topic and then in our senior year present it with an actual product. I am...

I just wanted to update everyone. I discussed all of your ideas with my English teacher who is currently in charge of the projects. I really wanted to do the teaching thing where I went to a pre-school and taught kids how to wash hands, do some act...

No way! I was researching this today and contacted my local community college about it! What a coincidence. Your idea about teaching kids something also sounds great! Maybe teaching preschool kids the importance of handwashing or something simi...

Thanks so much for your ideas!

Hi. I am in highschool and so I do not know anything regardng the legality of the issue. My question is, is nicotine received by second-hand smoking? My mother smokes, so I am always breathing in her smoke. Is nicotine in my blood system, or do I...

I'm applying to a nursing summer program for highschool students and one of the questions on the application says to list three nursing specialties that I'm interested in learning about during the program. I just want to double check that the follow...

Thank you all for your suggestions and help. I decided to write down pediatric nursing, operating room nursing + CRNA, and critical care nursing. I will be sure the check out the specialties forums to see what it is really like in all the different...

Hello! I guess this may be coming from a patient perspective because I'm a highschooler who is looking to become a nurse after graduation. I feel that a nurse who is caring for me should not be in a t-shirt. This isn't solid evidence or a lot of i...

Congratulations on passing! Being a highschool student, I have no idea what ACLS is, (a google search shows that it is a Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support, is that correct?) but congratulations! I am sure it is a great accomplishment.

I have received some patches from volunteering at the hospital and had no idea you could soak them! Thanks for the tip!

I am not a nurse or anything but I do think that nurses need more credit for all that they do. You rock!
