  1. Major Doozy.....Please advise

    CDeniseGo replied to amaxiechRN2011's topic in General Students

    Talk to your faculty, see a doc, and try to get it under control. I think that if they tell you that you can't be a nurse, then they are full of

    CDeniseGo replied to TalonLXX's topic in General Students

    CDeniseGo replied to sunnie123's topic in General Students

    P.S. I failed Med/surg 1 doing what you are doing. I relaxed, the second time around, and got a B. I understand exactly what you are feeling. In my school, if you fail twice you are out of the...

  4. What am I going to do!!!!!

    CDeniseGo replied to sunnie123's topic in General Students

    I believe that you need to stop, take a deep breath, cry, and then take a nap. You cannot beat yourself up and expect to do ok. You tried studying all night, and its not working. Try something else:...

  6. i need HELP!!!!!!!!

    CDeniseGo replied to mRpeNa's topic in General Students

    Don't try to study everything at once, also. I would suggest breaking down the med categories and trying to concentrate on only the most pertinent info-the most common side effect or the most-seen...

  7. Pharm test question, looking for opinions

    CDeniseGo replied to heiressly's topic in General Students

    Your teacher is a *****!!!! Jmho....I had one like this before. She prided herself on making her tests riddles to which the only answer was "because we did it like this 20 yrs ago" or "because I said...

    CDeniseGo replied to VidaUrbana's topic in General Students

    Why are there always 6 different people telling me how to perform a skill 20 different ways? And then when I am to perform this skill for a grade, the 7th person who evaluates me doesn't like my...

  9. What makes Nursing school hard?

    CDeniseGo replied to Back2Nursing09's topic in General Students

    At my school, you do not pick your own schedules, then there is the infinite amount of work and extra activities that you must participate in, the faculty, and the point of having a family/home life?...

    CDeniseGo replied to scrublifenurse10's topic in General Students

  12. What's in your clinical book bag?

    CDeniseGo replied to SANART11's topic in General Students

    It is best to try to get just a cheap standard backpack because at all my clinicals, they didn't have dedicated space for our stuff so it may be on the floor! Don't spend a bunch of money on it. Also,...

    CDeniseGo replied to Brictor's topic in General Students

  14. Scared about continuing to pursue nursing

    CDeniseGo replied to WantAccel.BSN's topic in General Students

    Things worth having are worth sacrificing for and worth waiting for. If you feel good about the thoughts of helping others and being a nurse, then do it. If you only want a steady check, then stay...

  15. Hep B Titer question

    CDeniseGo replied to jerryeveryday's topic in General Students

    I remember when I had to have that done as well. Your best bet may be to go to a clinic and see a doc that way to get it done, or ask the doc why he is ordering unnecessary tests! If you only need the...

    CDeniseGo posted a topic in General Students

    I am a lowly nursing student, eager to see the sights, sniff the smells, and live the life of super-caring nurse lady. Well, in clinicals, I had this really nice lady who had to have her wound vac...

    CDeniseGo replied to CDeniseGo's topic in General Students

  20. I hate nursing

    CDeniseGo replied to prettylittlenurse2b's topic in General Students

    I agree with some of the other responders to your post as far as finding something that you love to do, however, in nursing, what is it exactly that you don't like? I am in school, but am not close...
