  1. Pearsonvue Trick Is this TRUE? Does it work every time?

    I submitted my test 2 hours ago after sitting for 45 minutes and getting 75 questions...based on the PVT I got the good pop up. Holy sh*t. I hope this is right.
  2. Graduation Gift

    Ok, I have been asking everyone I know then I realized you guys would probably be more helpful then anyone I know. Anyways, I graduate in 37 days (!) from nursing school but I wanted to give both my fiance and my parents a present. I know that is a ...
  3. Graduation Gift

    Definitely a bit less then what everyone is suggesting. I want to give it to them on graduation day while I am still on a student budget...the other ideas are great, but more likely something to happen once I'm on an RN budget.
  4. What do you take to clinicals??

    I am in the same place as Meg. I have very full pockets! I wear an ID badge around my neck and behind my hospital ID card, I bring my drivers license, debit/credit card, a little cash, and my health insurance card. I then of course stuff my pockets w...
  5. Debinding books?

    I did mine on Tuesday. As soon as I finished reading this thread I went to my bookstore, bought my foundations book, then went to kinkos and had both that one and my medterm book debound. It is perfect! My medterm tests are with random chapters, like...
  6. Class of 2010 (starting nursing school in Fall 2008)

    Wow, tests right away! I am so nervous. I have my orientation next Tuesday (19th) and then classes begin the following Monday (25th), I am so excited. I want to start reading, I want to start procedures, but what if it is too hard?!? Ack, good luck t...
  7. What an exciting commute to work!

    Way to go!!! That is awesome, I guess this school stuff really does work, lol.
  8. Debinding books?

    What a fabulous idea! I am waiting for my fundamentals of nursing book to come in and I think I am going to take a few books down to kinkos and have this done. The books are so freaking big and I just can't carry them all; however, I like to have my ...
  9. Best student selection process?

    My school does it strictly based on a point system. I think it sucks. Here is the basic break down. *Critical thinking test: 5/10/15 *GPA for 5 out 6 pre req (they take highest 5): 5/10/15/20/25/30 *Having your final pre req finished prior to applyin...
  10. I get to buy my books tomorrow!!

    That is exciting. I bought mine last Monday, it was very exciting. I should have brought a wheel barrel they were ridiculous. OH and they cost me a freaking fortune! $600
  11. Nesting

    Last night I went nuts when I got in from work. I rearranged my entire study, moved dog crates, my cat condo, my desk, added an extra bookshelf, unwrapped all my nursing books and found a place for all them, put things in my NP1 binder. I organized i...

    What site are you using?
  13. cadavuers in ns school????

    In my A&P classes we did, fetal pig, sheep brain, cow eye, cow heart, pig lungs...I think that is it. We have a cadaver available for viewing and their is an instructor that works on it and we can watch her dissect it. As far as cats go, we didn'...
  14. Nesting

    Thanks for the tips Lori. Those will definitely help keep my sanity this semester.
  15. What are you studying before school starts?

    I start in 18 days also...I have been studying a lot of different stuff. My belief is that if I just get the general gist of a lot of things then I will be a head of the game. With that being said, I have read "Fluids and Electrolytes made Incredibly...
  16. How old were you when you began nursing school?

    I am 22 and I start in t-minus 2 weeks and 4 days...
  17. I cringed on the inside

    Honestly the oldest boy I watch is 6 and he is the same way. So you know what we do...cheese sandwiches, peanut butter sandwiches, bagels or pizza. Oh yeah, and we throw in a couple of gummy vitamins in the morning for everything he's missing. 3 year...
  18. Nurses with tattoos?

    Well said. I definitely think being intelligent is starting to be looked at as sexy. Smart men are realize that external beauty only last as long as their breasts are perky; however, brains will actually last throughout the relationship. Anyways, bac...
  19. I cringed on the inside

    I completely agree with Scorpio. Now, I am not a Mom, but a nanny. I worked with my current family for nearly 60 hours a week for almost 2 years. When I got into this situation, I had all these rules in my head of how I was going to parent my child w...
  20. I would also look on campus, my school offers either free or low cost day care based on the students income -- in your case it would probably be free. Good luck.
  21. Nursing made Incredibly easy

    That is the same one I bought. I am loving it, I am only 65 pages into it and learning so much!
  22. How do I break up with my study buddy?

    I dealt with this problem last semester. I had a fellow pre-nursing student in both my microbiology and A&P II class. At first we clicked because she was just nice, but as soon as we sat down for the first study session I knew it was a terrible m...
  23. Do you have AIM?
  24. I know it is terrible. I understand that nothing is full proof when it comes to BC (first hard); however, you have got to be an idiot when you are busting your ass to get a degree and opps one drunken night forget a condom. (No offense if your son is...
  25. I can't believe all these people get pregnant and have babies while in nursing school. I just don't understand why. It is very hard for me to comprehend. I also think people don't have an understanding of how truly difficult it is to raise a child. I...
