Hi Jules, I had to write a 10 page thesis paper last semester. My topic was on kidney patients flying around the world to buy kidney's from the poor for transplant. It was a very informative, and there is lots of information on this topic on the in...

Hi Lizz, It really is too bad that your instructor thinks so poorly of himself. If he is so confident that so many students are going to fail his course, then he must see himself as a failure as a teacher. Let him know you have confidence in him. ...

Cruisin! Don't panic. This topic was just discussed a couple of weeks ago. You may want to do a search on this BB. What you need to do is to go to the web site of the state licensing board in the state where you hope to be practicing. In a nutsh...

I heard this one on "Fear Factor".... "The pain is temporary....the glory is forever!"

You know you're Canadian when... ...you're 30th in line at Tim Horton's, it's 2:00 p.m., and it's 95 degrees farenheit outside... or... ...you bring that nice hot cup of coffee to the beach with you! or... "I'm a lousy excuse for a Canadian...I don't...

Hello everyone... ...and a Happy Holiday to all! Okay, I need help. By chance, would anyone be interested in parting with their Rene Mollen-Masters book, "You Are Smarter Than You Think" ? It's out of print, and unavailable from both barnesandnobl...

aac96 and RNn Training, Thanks for your responses. I found the listing on amazon.com this morning, but beside the heading "Availability:" there was a blank. Last week when I checked there was a "4" beside this heading. I went ahead and ordered tw...

Hello fellow students! I'm a pre-nursing student working on my pre-reqs. I've been reading lots of posts here on allnurses lately with a common theme: end of semester burnout, and debates about quitting. Did you know that the difference between su...

Krishopper! I caught you on allnurses again, didn't I? Get back to the books!

Hi Bluesky, I'll agree that is does sound a lot like a T.R. tale. By the time it reached me, it was coming from my pastor, though. It was the theme of that Sunday's sermon, titled: the "S" word. Not "sin", not "sex", but "success". Life is all ab...

I have yet to complete my first care plan, but filling out a care plan is the only element to my Nursing Process class final exam. Check out careplans.com . I believe I got this site from a previous post on allnurses. I hope this helps!

Hello everyone! I'm glad you found the site as informative as I did! Have a great weekend! Buffalo - we ain't just chicken wings and lousy sports teams anymore!

Hello gang! One of my A&P profs gave us this web site for ...what else? A&P! I thought I would pass this along to all my comrades now taking and suffering ...or taking and loving A&P 1 or 2. This is an excellent site, and deals with A&...

P.S. It's free!

Hi Fatima! It would be a shame to drop your A&P 2 this far into things - we're half way through the semester! Consider all of your other options first: -can you officially switch to another class with another prof? -if you can't switch,...

I forgot what I was going to say....

Hello fellow A&P students! I've been reading the posts from some of your first exam results. I thought it might be a good idea to try to build a mnemonics thread for Marieb's A&P, since that's what most of us are using, and would be helpful ...

Hey! These are really great! I've been to a couple of mnemonics sites (medicalmnemonics.com, and another one listed in my fav's) but for the most part the content of those are to vast for A&P 1. Anyone else have any???? Keep up the hard work fel...

Hello everyone, I would like to purchase the "how to" study book that everyone has been commenting on lately. I went to the Barnes and Noble site, but it came up with 32 close titles, but none exact. Is the complete title: "You are smarter than...

Hi Iliel! I feel the pressure too! I've just started my pre-reqs Sept. 2. I haven't met a lot of people who have been matriculated into the nursing program yet, but of the two I have spoken with, they both had 4.0 averages! The one guy figures "th...

Hello all! As part of my pre-reqs for nursing I have enrolled in a college composition course. Our project for the semester is a 10 page thesis on anything we'd like. Our prof. wants us to come up with 3 possible topics and write a paragraph on eac...

Hi Det01 and others: I know, those are some pretty interesting topics. I don't really understand the rationale myself. I would have to guess it's because what is really important in this course is the development of a thesis paper, and not so much ...

Hi Carolanne, I should have defined what I meant by a "thesis paper": - it's one side of an argument -the topic must be one which is either fully established, or cannot be proven. -it must answer a question For example, "why I want to be ...

Thanks det01! I should have added that the instructor has forbidden certain subjects which include: Stem cell research, abortion, suicide, assisted suicide, gay marriage, or other similar topics (if you can find a similarity, that is). I've added gen...

LPN2Be: I was just in the process of asking the same question myself! What manufacturers of recorders conked out on you? I have a Radio Shack sale flyer advertising a Sony digital recorder (model # unknown). "Record a full day of classes-without ta...
