  1. I have both the 2009 Mosby's Drug Cards and the reference handbook.... neither of which seem to be as helpful as I thought they'd be! I know there are new drugs all the time, but I can only find...
  2. Drug cards/references HELPPPP!!!!

    Alright, thank you so much for your replies. Maybe I was misinformed that there was some shortcut for this busy clinical paperwork, but I could have swornnnnnnn they said something about it! Hence...
  3. Nightmares

    I haven't had nightmares about nursing school yet, but I do dream vividly and remember my dreams probably 5 nights of the week on average. But since I started nursing school, that's ALL I dream...

  5. Going to the Gym

    If I go to the gym at least 3 times a week during school, I feel good about myself. That was my motto during prereqs, and it's my motto in nursing school too! It really does make a difference. Some...
  6. Anbody Else Gain a Ton of Weight in Nursing School?

    At our orientation, they were telling us how much weight nursing students gain because of the same reasons you just gave. So you are not alone. I will however say, the heavy students are the ones...

  9. Need help taking blood pressure

    We had a BP lab today, and I was flying through it with no trouble, heard everything perfectly on the manikin, but then I couldn't hear ANYTHING on any of my classmates! NOTHING! It was like my...
  10. Missed Dosage Calc by two points!!!

    We have 2 chances to get a 90%. I am better at math than I think I am, but it still makes me nervous, and I'm afraid I'm going to freeze up and do something silly and
  11. Hey! I start my RN program in January and want to try and get a bit of a head start on my math calculations for those infamous tests! Math is not my strong suit (though I've surprised myself a few...

  13. Turned off by fellow nursing students...

    What a bummer!! I encountered this VERY SAME THING last week. It really, really ruined a few days for me, because I have no drama in my life and I like it that way. So when something sneaks in, I want...
  14. Teas Test

    Wow... that's crazy! Isn't there a limit on how many times you can take that stupid test? At my school, we get 2 chances
  15. Biol 189 @ Ccsn

    I have to reply to this.... I took my Bio189 at CSN and it was THE HARDEST CLASS I have EVER taken. There were 45 people on the first day of class, not even enough desks for everybody, and on the day...
  16. W's on your transcript..opinions please

    When I was at the community college, they told us that in classes like biology (where you get 2 or 3 chances to take and re-take it, depending), that a W COUNTED as one of those chances to take the...
  17. Chemistry Fall 2008

    My biggest issue with chemistry is that I just don't care about it... :chuckle The work itself isn't actually that difficult, it just doesn't intrigue me, I don't see the point, I don't care about...
  18. Great thread! I am an alternate for Spring, but I'm trying to think like I'm already accepted.... just in case.. Once this Fall semester is over, during Winter break I'm planning on brushing up on my...
  19. Fall 09 hopefuls?

    Ugh! That's what everyone is telling me... but thanks for the support! What sucks is, if the deadline had been 2 weeks later, I would have had my second session summer school grades in (3 classes!)...

    yeah, i got my letter today, and i applied with a 3.21 (if the deadline had been a few weeks later, i would have gotten my second summer school grades in, and applied with a 3.31... dang!) but anyway,...
  22. Fall 09 hopefuls?

    I applied for Spring 09 and got my letter today. I didn't get in, but I am ranked third on the alternate list. On one hand, third sounds great because it's only two spots away from 1! But on the...
  23. The "Alternate" List???

    Thanks for the encouragement! Our program is nowhere near to accepting over 100 people... there are 40 spots but the last few semesters they've only been taking about 30ish people. One of my friends...
  24. The "Alternate" List???

    Hi everybody... I got my letter today and I wasn't accepted but I am ranked third on the alternate list. I didn't post this in the Pre-Nursing forum because, well... I figured people actually in the...
