  7. I didn't pass Med/Surg

    Thanks Jen! You called it too, because I was just sitting here with insomnia (@0330) and thinking how in the world do you bomb a final so bad that you bring an 81% average all the way down to a 74.7%? So you came right on time. I guess part of it is ...

  15. Is your nursing school secretive?

    Well my school is not only secretive about clinical placement but, when it comes to our tests in med/surg, we do not get our grades back for 2 weeks, and then we are given our scan trons while the instuctor rushes through the answers and collects the...
