I'm in the worst mood right now because my physiology teacher is trying to fail us!!! i did pretty well on our first two tests (Bs on both) so my average was a high B. then came the cardio test. ugh i did not do so well; i got a 72 (which is failing ...

We were talking about the symptoms of heart failure and my instructor brought up that edema was one of the main symptoms and asked what it is increased by? I'm going between a few options because of what i have looked up but i still need some help de...

I have a patient that I'm having some trouble with. He has a trach so I wanted to do my careplan on that because we just had a lecture on it this past week (plus its the only thing the guy has going on thats significant). I picked ineffective airway ...

To the Original Poster, did you end up picking a school??

Csmith06, LSU looks at your prereq GPA abjones, LSU considers applicants with a 2.8 or above. However, the usual average GPA for students who are accepted is around a 3.4 or above.... this does not mean you will not get in! make sure you don't have a...

Louisiana State university Health Sciences Center in New orleans has an NNP school

volunteer in a department you are interested in.. yea there's no money but most places only require you to work like one day a week so you could get another job if you need one. i also worked in the doctors' offices. you learn some terminology, but ...

thankyou, i was about to say the same thing! also, you get 2 1/2 years of clinical experience at lsu sooo they have the same amount of hospital experience...so lsu grads can also graduate and hit the floor... im also not hating on charity since that...

it really depends on personal experience because you either get students who go to lsu or who go to charity so one will not know about the other. the nclex pass rates are practically the same. each school has about the same amount to clinicals so eit...

the school is pretty hard so my biggest advice to you would be to buy your textbook early and start reading up a little bit over the summer. phys is realllyyyy hard but i think a new teacher is taking over next semester? either way you will have to s...

i had to quit my job when i started my bsn program bc the boss wouldnt work with my schedule at all. instead i got a small nanny job on the side to give me some extra spending cash. also, many hospitals in my area will pay back your loans for you if ...

teeniebert-- its a public bsn program. many of the teachers do want to help in anyway possible, its just a select few who dont want to give the time to concentrate on certain material or give minute clues as to what the test will primarily be on. i g...

first of all, i never said this was every teacher. I said it was my one teacher. my anatomy professor is the most amazing person who is so helpful and he obviously still fails people, but he does it because he has to because i obviously understand th...

no where in my thread did i say anything about being behind in readings so i have no idea where that is coming from??? also that was the second week of school and i made a B on that test. Thankyou though.

people come to this website for HELP not for people to criticize them when they are having a problem. maybe you should try to look at a problem from another perspective besides your own or just don't post. people don't need others to put them down wh...

no i don't want nurses whose teachers made it easy but i would also like a teacher to give FAIR questions. i don't think a teacher should try to fail his students because there are alot of people out there who could be great nurses but someone failed...

Okay, if he is disrupting your class and, as it sounds, you are not the only one who thinks hes freaking annoying (i know i would) then I would definetly say something to your instructor. Maybe go see him after class, and Say "can you explain this to...

i think the top thing that makes a bad nurse is not being able to handle stressful situations or working under pressure. when my step sister mentioned that she was thinking about nursing i laughed bc she freaks out over the smallest things

why would you not want the 8hr? many interships in my area are the full 12hr shifts...which is what you will be doing when you graduate. pick the offer that you feel will give you the most experience

at my school, last semester 30 people (out of a class of about a little over 100) failed physiology. A few others dropped out as well

A 25 year old nurse has a blood specimen drawn and sent to the clinical lab. the findings are a hematocrit of 24%, a reticulocyte count of 18%, a hemoglobin concentration of 8 mg/dL and a bilirubin value of 7 mg/dL (normal range is .5- 1.2). Based on...

What I would like to say to fellow nursing students.... Must you call/text me ten minutes after grades are posted to find out what i got...every time??! its my business not yours! do you really have nothing better to do than talk about other people? ...

wow there must be something about family rivalry... my step sister is an ultrasound tech... she always had this weird tendancy of getting the same things as me (example being the same car!) The same week I started nursing school, she called and asked...

I know EXACTLY how u feel! I went to nursing school with a small group of friends and now they are all against eachother! ive known them for years and as soon as nursing school came, its like we were back in high school...competing over grades, talki...

I guess I just need to vent but I am really starting to freak out about Phys..our first test is coming up and I'm so stressed! maybe its because 30 people from last semester FAILED! our teacher seems nice but i have heard that his tests are ridiculou...
