Have not applied to any jobs since getting first jobs as a new grad! Hoping for any suggestions and advice! Thank you so much in advance. Should I place an objective to start my resume? Also I feel that the SNF job description and duties does not ...

Since you are waiting on financial aid, were u deferred and did they give you an authorization for X amount of money to be used at the bookstore? You might try talking to financial aid to see if they will authorize you for more to be used at the boo...

The parking on Pearl street itself is for anyone, 7:30 is usually a good time to park. First couple days there can be a small line waiting to turn on pearl street (Lot 1's entrance being directly before the turn onto Pearl St doesn't help those turni...

From what I understood when I bought my smartphone is that some phones run on different wireless systems. Either GMS or CDMA. Some of those that run on gms are tmobile and cingular. While cdma is verizon, nextel, and sprint. (Don't quote me on wh...

I seem to remember something about the user id and password for blackboard being the same as either your web advisor or student email account? You might give that a try to get into blackboard if you can.

They always seem to be pretty bad about replying to parking. I seem to remember that they replied a couple of weeks or so prior to the semester actually starting. That's not kept me from emailing them twice a month though just in case. I just copy...

As the others had stated, as long as the edition is correct you don't need to worry about the year of publication as it can be wrong on Barnes and Noble's site. For fundamentals of nursing, the sixth edition is the correct one.

I believe the topic was health promotion using the nursing processes the first semester for us? We were able to choose what we wanted to promote, I went for diet in vegetarian pregnant women (I forgot my offical title lol). For the second semester,...

You're typically assigned patients in your first year. You will most likely be collecting data from charts on your patient the first day, and the second being actual patient care. As for shoes, they should be all white. No shoes that have no backin...

Hi Cherry, I am hoping to apply for the Fall 2010 RN to BSN program and was hoping that you could help me with some information regarding SUNY downstate. Unfortantely, I don't think I will be apply to attend their information session this wednesday ...

Hmm, I guess I sort of lucked out on that end for clinical with being able to still copy/paste. I pretty much always used my own words for what the drug was for, what I copy/pasted was for nursing implications and the template I made for lab diagnos...

I wasn't organized at all before Nursing school. But now I'm pretty surprised at how that's changed, I even have to do lists. I never thought I would go that far, but I can really appreciate anyone being super organized now. One thing that I've se...

The lab manual I was speaking of will be given to you, it's just a packet of work to be done before lab each week. You will be using the Fundamentals and Taylor's clinical skills textbook to complete it. There have been times I'd put in additional no...

A lot of this is repetitive of what tero stated. The term paper and clinical paperwork, as is, will take out a lot of your time from studying. Anything else is just additional work to worry about. You will find getting your lab manual and math for...

YourMyBud2, you will find that you will be spending a lot of time with your clinical classmates and can always try to develop a study group with them. Congrats on getting in, I hope everyone does well! As important as it is to be prepared for the u...

Well look at it this way Bananimal, if you use the books all four semester then you might be better off buying some of the books anyways. I can see renting maybe the medical calculations text that was mentioned and any other book I thought I wouldn'...

stcc14, thanks for letting us know about renting books! I never knew there was something out there like that. I'm sure I will find a book I rather not buy in the following semesters or when I go for my BSN. On another note, some of our Nursing 302 ...

Here's the site where you can get information on becoming CNA certified. Look under the canidiate guide, you might not have to wait after one year of nursing school if you meet other criteria. http://www.bostonredcross.org/general.asp?SN=201&OP=...

Great question, I just started considering looking into this as well. I just finished my first year in an ADN program, and wanted to do all I could to become more marketable. With everything people have been saying about being not being able to fin...

First Semester is stressful, mainly because you're getting used to everything and the workload can be a lot. I thought first semester was actually worse than the second. Maybe because I had the one day clinical in the first semester. And, I even t...

I may potentially move to Brooklyn after I finish my ADN program, I was hoping for any recommendations for Colleges that offer the ADN to BSN route. Are there any that are part-time/online? Might as well get in my research now while I have a break ...

Thanks so much for replying! I have looked into SUNY Delhi, but was wondering do you know if their BSN program is NLNAC or CCNE accredited? I see they are listed under the NLNAC website, but it's under the Associate's heading. I just worry about t...

I figured the Barnes and Noble membership can't be the cheapest way, especially with their shipping rates. So I did a lot of searching, and found my books that showed what the best rates/shipping were. That was for my text books anyways, then I bou...

When we were given the book list last year, they marked off the books we wouldn't need till Spring semester. Which were just Maternity and Pediatics I believe. All the others, you should be using. Note that some on that list should be study guides...

The only place I'm aware of that you can park is Pearl street, around lot 2 and the back entrance of STCC. Normally there is plenty of spaces available earlier around 8. But as it gets to be around 10, there really isn't any visable spots that I ca...
