I've taken several online courses, SusanNC, and have found them very helpful in terms of being about to work my own schedule into it, pick those moment when I'm most free to be able to post to class discussion boards or take online exams. All of this...

Well, you may be right, yes. Yet, none of us know for sure if this is a troll post.....or isn't. It it is, we've simply wasted a tiny bit of time in replying....If it isn't, we have hopefully made points to hopefully.

I don't actually see anyone attacking you, hopefully, but how you cannot see that your post was unjust and unfair is beyond me. You don't even know those people you described. How do you know they're arrogant? Why are you so quick to base assumptions...

Okay, y'all, tell us who still have a bit left to go......WHAT DOES IT FEEL LIKE!?!!??! ahhaha I have two semesters remaining before I graduate, God-willing I don't fail anything! How does success feel? Do you feel in a dream-state? How many times ha...

In my first semester of nursing school, lecture consisted of Nursing Fundamentals. We started off learning about the founding nurses...Nightingale, etc. Learned about theorists, Maslow, Erikson, Gordon. By mid-semester we were into basic care....trac...

So let me clarify this: The whole time you thought they were looking at you, judging you, dismissing you as such-and-such, you were doing the same to them.

Any advice? I'll have mental health nursing/Psych when I go back in the fall. I really want to do well with it but I've heard so many people talk about how difficult it is. I'll also have OB/Peds. What all does a Psych course entail? What will I be ...

OMG! How tragic!! I'm so sorry, Ortho_RN!

But you can't base assumptions, hopefully. None of us know this instructor...indeed, none of us know this student. My heart breaks for you, Be_Bohdi_Pure, but at the same time, it's hard to know what to think, what to say, because we only have your s...

No. I've thought about taking a dosage/calc class just to make me stronger in it but I DO have two dosage calc books and I suppose I COULD just practice and practice at home. Too, since I don't have student financial aid for summer courses (only for ...

Me too. I'll certainly pray for you that things a miracle works out for you this semester too. If, for some reason it doesn't, don't give up!

Oh, thank you so much, Jen! With everyones prayers, how could I miss, right? God Is Good! Thank you!

Okay.....wait.....Y'all tell me this NOW!?! [sNORT]

Thanks francine....Worried does not describe how stressed out it had me....haha. This too shall pass though, right? Are you getting ready to take your first Med-Surg or your last? Ours is in two semesters. We just took the first and will take Med-Sur...

Yeah, okay, if it took smarts I would have been lonnnnnng gone from there...haha. Now now, seriously.... Prunepie, I am far from the "class brain".....Now, in prereqs I may have qualified quite a bit. Nursing lecture courses, however, have been anoth...

Thank you so much, Mlos. These last couple of days have been my happiest this semester. I'm still feeling euphoric. When WILL I wake up?

I still have a year to go! Tell us....WHAT DOES IT FEEL LIKE????? Are you euphoric? So excited you could hurl? haahh....How does graduating from nursing school feel? :balloons:

Oh Carolanne! I'm so sorry! I so admire your preserverence; your way of looking at things. That's the way it should be...looking at it as just another obstacle and I suppose we all know by now that anything worth having is worth jumping over. Two of...

Boy, do I hope it's not as bad as Med-Surg. My classmates and I were just saying yesterday that we feel we haven't seen nothin' yet! *shudder*. Thanks for the recommendation for that book. Since I'll be working during the summer (going back to work M...

Our instructors recommended we take A&P before beginning the nursing courses......I found this out after attending my orientation for the first semester last Fall....I was like, "Oh no! What am I going to do now?"....I mean, you get accepted and ...

I don't care about being the "brain of the class" but yeah, I do care about a diminishing GPA....but that's because it could hurt my student financial aid if it gets too low. Has to be at least a 2.0 before you qualify.....I get tense when mine gets ...

Awwwwwwwww!!!! :) Congratulations!!! I remember how I felt when I got mine!! Great news, lunakat....I know how excited you are! Celebrate!! :balloons:

Omg! Great advice! That's exactly what I did! That cd that comes with Davis Drug Guide is awesome!!

And don't forget those little tabs (colored placeholders that stick) that you can buy from Wal-Mart to use in your huge textbook. It'll make it so much easier to find your unit chapters during study periods.

I'm probably going to sound like an emotional wreck in my post but I AM still feeling emotional. I had my Med-Surg final yesterday. I've struggled with Med-Surg this entire semester. Grades started improving but not as high as I would have liked to ...
