  1. Example of Nursing School Notes? Pls help!

    Indymom4 your notes are
  2. Example of Nursing School Notes? Pls help!

    For notes, I usually make an outline from the chapter concepts. For studying a very good site is study stack. You can go on that site and search the nursing notes that others have put up and look at...
  3. Becoming a nurse for the money...

    I think the attitude of the original poster throughout this thread has brought out the worst in people. He has made it clear that he is so smart that he will not have to study. I think that is what is...
  4. Working Students with Children

    I wish people would quit telling people they can't work. I am a single mother, work full time, have a part time job, and am a full time nursing student. Luckily my daughter is 10yrs (going into 6th...
  5. I think it is more accurate to say, feel like no matter how hard you work you will never feel like it is enough. I don't agree with the no working thing. I am a single mother, work full time at one...
  6. Which class would you take?

    unless you need the credit hours I wouldn't take either, but if you do take one I would go with medical
  7. Are nursing instructors really that bad?

    Maybe some are, (just like anywhere- there is always going to be a few A-holes)but for the most part no. I think that most students who whine about how unfair the instructors are the ones that have...
  8. Becoming a nurse for the money...

    Just wondering, maybe I missed it to the Original Poster how far along are you in nursing school? You seem overly confident in your ability to breeze through nursing school. Maybe you really are...
  9. Parents at Orientation

    (What the hell is a "helicopter parent". ) A parent that hovers over like a helicopter. I also wanted to mention that you might get made fun of, nursing school is tough enough, there is a lot of...
  10. Parents at Orientation

    I have NEVER seen a parent at nursing orientation. I would understand her wanting to come to overall welcome to the university orientation, but not the nursing specific. However, many nursing...
  11. how important is microbiology in nursing

    Very important. It is a very interesting class, don't let anyone freak you out about how hard it is, it's no where near as hard as nursing classes. It was one of my favorite classes, I took it during...
  12. Becoming a nurse for the money...

    We are given on in school a list of average RN salaries by state. I think the original poster is mistaken unless he plans on being a CRNA or CRNI he is not going to make $100,000 even in California....
  13. Mind Boggling - Not going to graduation?

    She has a valid point, however there are many of us who have done this with no help and no support from anyone, and would have no one there to celebrate with us, and by going it would just be another...
  14. Rude people in the public library

    People are soooo rude. I was studying on the designated quiet floor (signs are everywhere),and this one girl kept talking and laughing loudly on her phone. She was distrubing everyone on the floor. I...
  15. skip masters and get your doctorate then you could be a CRNA or CRNI and make the big bucks, I have considered it but I think I would be much happier as a pediatric
  16. Reality Check Needed for BSN Student

    I am sorry you are going through this, but I agree an exception for you would mean an exception for everyone. I had to sit out because of a broken arm and leg and knew because of the pain meds and...
  17. Should I miss clinicals for...

    You never miss clinicals! Not even for your bridal shower. Just wondering, did you tell the person scheduling the shower that it is a clinical day? It seems rude for her to schedule it without...
  18. Becoming a nurse for the money...

    Personally I do not think nurses are paid very well at all. An average salary of $24 an hour is not very good pay for the amount of work both mentally and physically and the emotional stress that...
  19. How far do you drive for nursing school?

    Between an hour 15 minutes and hour and a half depending on traffic, there are some in my class that drive almost 3
  20. Mind Boggling - Not going to graduation?

    I will not go to my graduation, but I will go to my pinning ceremony. I see this degree (ADN) as such a minor stepping stone for my goal that it seems pointless to go through the whole graduation...
  21. What were your favorite classes

    Loved Nutrition and Microbiology, Organic Chemistry was okay, but I really did not care for the professor, I think if I had a different professor it would have been my favorite Favorite nursing class...
  22. When you are in NS do you do anything during the summer?

    We are given summer reading assignments. I am going to study some during my summer but I am going to relax a little. I work 40 hours a week while in nursing school but when I am out I work 60 hours a...
  23. Any positive thoughts on nursing school?

    It is by far the hardest thing you will ever do, it will push you to your breaking point more than once, but think of it like Survivor. The people on Survivor do not have many positive things to say...
  24. Acid-base balance. I am determined to teach myself this summer. We had minimal instruction on it and it made no sense to me what so
  25. HUGE mistake in clinical....

    Yes it was a mistake, but truly it was a small one in the scheme of things. You owned up to it, got help, a lot of students would have tried to cover it up. I think the instructor handled it...
