  1. HUGE mistake in clinical....

    Agrippa replied to MattiesMama's topic in General Students

    Screw your instructor. You're a nursing student and a human being - you will make mistakes. She sounds like the one who can't

  2. University of Maryland Traditional BSN Fall Program: Any idea when we will hear back?

    Agrippa replied to Agrippa's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Agrippa replied to Agrippa's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Im looking at the booklist - did you get any of the "recommended" things on the list? I for one have never gotten any recommended book as I have found that I will most likely never need them. Also,...

    I just registered for them. The only thing that it seems we have a choice on is informatics, which i chose to take online. Ugh...these classes are so early in the morning....and theres bound to be...

    Agrippa replied to Agrippa's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Thanks for the info. If they're just starting to do loans then it makes sense that i haven't heard anything yet. Im not eligible for pell grants unfortunately. Did you find out about your award...

  11. University of Maryland Traditional BSN Fall Program: Any idea when we will hear back?

    Agrippa replied to Agrippa's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I wonder why they want us to register for anything our first semester - its not like we have any choice of picking a different class since it looks like we only have one option. Ugh....i am not a...

  12. my first job interview experience and shocking work environment

    Agrippa replied to nurse_dot's topic in General Nursing

    Also, I agree with one of the earlier posts - if something does happen and a malpractice suit does get filed, i feel that your license may be at risk. It wouldn't surprise me if the employer tries to...

  13. my first job interview experience and shocking work environment

    Agrippa replied to nurse_dot's topic in General Nursing

    This is clearly a malpractice suit waiting to happen, which seems to be the ONLY way these "healthcare organizations" will notice and change the staffing situation - when it hits them in the pocket....

  14. Intuition??

    Agrippa replied to Tweety's topic in General Nursing

    There are some good books by scholars who try to explain things link this, intuition, mind-mind/matter conections, clairvoyance, etc. Basically they examine the possibility that we as humans have a...

  15. Question about Walden University

    Agrippa replied to swirlygirl's topic in School, College Programs

    I smell a troll. Maybe its initially "cheaper" than a brick and mortar school when you take into consideration the other costs, but in the end, no matter how cheap it was to get the degree, its not...

  16. Question about Walden University

    Agrippa replied to swirlygirl's topic in School, College Programs

    I am generally very wary of most all online only universities. This doesn't mean classes from established brick and mortar universities that are just offered online. But places like U of Phoenix,...

  17. From Philly

    Agrippa replied to shanika1m1's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Depends on how much money you have and what you're willing to spend on cost of living. Howard county and Montgomery county are expensive but have good schools (in general). Baltimore and Anne...

  18. Becoming a nurse then going to law school?

    Agrippa replied to dancer_meggs's topic in General Nursing

    Well...I tried. Kind of ironic i guess. I was in a similar position the OP was in. I even worked in a big law firm to "see what it was like." Yet, i still went to law school. The confidence of...

  19. Becoming a nurse then going to law school?

    Agrippa replied to dancer_meggs's topic in General Nursing

    For the love of god, do not go to law school. I repeat, do not go to law school. Tucker Max puts it best....

  20. Advice on ADN vs finishing my BA and applying to an GE program

    Agrippa replied to leapfrog16's topic in General Students

    Well it seems as if you value other things in life - more creative things. If this is so, I think you should know that a medical career will take a big part of your life. Not saying that nursing...

  21. What should I do over summer before I start my program?

    Agrippa replied to AragornSkywalker's topic in Male Nursing Students

    Id relax and volunteer. I know that you said your past experience was bad. But that was when you were just in HS. Now that you will be entering nursing school, you should be able to do more. What...

  22. why did you decide this career field?

    Agrippa replied to ilovemychihuahua's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I chose this field because I can honestly say that I know what I will be doing will be unambiguously good. I will know that when I look back on my career, it mattered to at least one person. I could...

  23. University of Maryland Traditional BSN Fall Program: Any idea when we will hear back?

    Agrippa replied to Agrippa's topic in Maryland Nursing

    My only advice is to BE DIFFERENT. You want to be remembered from out of the hundreds of applicants the admissions committee will see. Think about how repetitive it is for them to read the typical...

  24. HRSA Nursing Scholarship Application--Now AVAILABLE!!

    Agrippa replied to futureflrn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    After reading what I said, I can see where I may have come off a bit harshly. For that I apologize. I just get upset sometimes when people (not saying this is you) who are wealthier or whos parents...

  25. HRSA Nursing Scholarship Application--Now AVAILABLE!!

    Agrippa replied to futureflrn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I didn't mean that you literally had a trust fund, although im sure some do. My point is that there are those who are much more needier than you. You have a $45k/yr job and ostensibly a previous...
