  1. failed nclex pn.. hope lost feeling rather dumb founded

    Sharingan replied to low_k3y's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Maybe, you should take a review

  2. RN Nurse VS Pharmacist

    Sharingan replied to thongvo89's topic in General Nursing

    I think pharmacists have it easier than nurses. Nursing is stressful and physically demanding. Plus, you are exposed to more danger as a nurse as

  3. I got hired on the spot!!!

    Sharingan replied to aromarn's topic in General Nursing

    Congratulations on your new job. I hope I'll get to experience the "getting hired on the spot" once I graduate. That would be so awesome!! Thank you for sharing your success story. It is nice to hear...

  4. Don't know what to do. I just CAN'T. TAKE. THIS. ANYMORE...........

    Sharingan replied to JoblessRN's topic in General Nursing

    Sorry to hear about your situation. Right now is just difficult to find work period. At my school, the May 09 graduated class is also having a tough time finding jobs. This is actually the first time...

  5. Is it worth it to take an LVN job in CA prisons when you are a new grad RN

    Sharingan replied to NewGradOakRN's topic in California Nursing

    I wouldn't take it if I were

  6. Not properly trained for ER?????

    Sharingan replied to bassadict69's topic in Emergency

    Many graduated students from my school went right into ER. One is now a clinical instructor. I think it's doable. Of course, as a new grad, anything is going to be difficult no matter where you go....

  7. Nursing school stress

    Sharingan replied to b_howard's topic in General Students

    Everyone is my class is so stressed out. It's just insane. We're in the second semester of an ADN program by the way. Med-surg is much harder than the fundamental stuff (it just couldn't compare!!)....

  8. RN with a Master's Degree; what is the salary, etc?

    Sharingan replied to Ms. Nurse Assistant's topic in General Nursing

    I think the main factor (among many) for $$ is the year (and type) of experience you

  9. 25K sign on bonus

    Sharingan replied to lamplight_RN's topic in General Nursing

    LOL.....I've never heard of such

  10. Worried about instructors

    Sharingan replied to futurenurseashley's topic in General Students

    Our theory professors were there during orientation and we met all of our clinical instructors second day of class. Though, I wouldn't assume that because they weren't there, they didn't commit to...

  11. Starting/ Going back on August 24th...

    Sharingan replied to ErinJane's topic in General Students

    Good luck everyone!! I'm also going back to school next week. It seems like ages since my last semester

  12. 1st med pass did not go so well...

    Sharingan replied to borntobanurse3's topic in General Students

    Sorry to hear that. For us, we would first look at the MAR (to just get an idea about what meds will be given), then we'd go do vital signs/head-to-toe assessment. Then, we'd look up lab values and...

  13. Metal Penis??

    Sharingan replied to Mommy_of_3_in_AL..RN's topic in General Students

    Wow, that's really interesting. Did it look like just a regular member? I was just wondering cause no one noticed it until you got to the MRI,

  14. Reading alot of posts discussing "A" nursing students vs "C" nursing students

    Sharingan replied to NurseLoveJoy88's topic in General Students

    I too consider C as a failing grade (sorry). Maybe, I am a competitive person/student, I don't know. I just try my very best and earn my A in the classes I take. I know my strengths and weaknesses....

  15. Recommendation letter

    Sharingan replied to rnstudent09's topic in General Students

    Normally, you should give the recommenders at least 2 weeks (very minimum) to compose LOR's. Are they aware that there is a deadline? If so, I'd say give them one more

  16. Grades- do instructors round up?

    Sharingan replied to WannaBeNrse's topic in General Students

    Not at my school either. My very close friend just failed a class (74.87%). They told us that it wouldn't matter if you have 74.99%. That is not 75% and hence not a passing

  17. Real world career path for nurses-must I work in a hospital for years post RN?

    Sharingan replied to anhero's topic in General Students

    I think you can get most clinic jobs as a new

  18. Med school after nursing?

    Sharingan replied to amarah2391's topic in Nursing Career

    I think you should first do some research on nursing as a profession. From your post, it seemed to be that you had a very limited understanding of what nursing is. I'd suggest volunteering in a...

  19. Nursing and Pre Med

    Sharingan replied to sc4s2cg's topic in General Students

    It is very possible and I'm sure people are doing it (or have done it). Depending on your school, you might be able to squeeze in some Bio/Chem/Physics/Math classes during Summer. Basically, you need...

  20. When you are in NS do you do anything during the summer?

    Sharingan replied to ~Mi Vida Loca~RN's topic in General Students

    At my school we have a 2-month break for Summer. I can't imagine going through the program without any break. I'd insane for sure!! So, for my Summer, I'm going overseas. I just want to relax and get...

  21. Gay male nurse stereotype?

    Sharingan replied to greygooseuria's topic in Male Nursing Students

    We have 10 male students (out of 48 in the class) and there are only 2 gay men among us guys. They never try to hide it. Everyone knows and we all are cool with that. Nobody cares really. Both of them...

  22. most difficult part of nursing school?

    Sharingan replied to bmr7's topic in General Students

    I completely agree with so many of you here. I hate... 1) 5 choices/question, choose the best answer or select all that apply!! 2) many long chapters you need to read (some of them are really...

  23. Students that cheat

    Sharingan replied to NewNurseAlert's topic in General Students

    I would turn her in if I had a concrete evidence. It's not fair to other students and it's surely not fair to the future patients. We need to protect our profession. Cheating should never be tolerated...

  24. Physical Assessment

    Sharingan replied to Stdy2BaNurse's topic in General Students

    I am in the same boat! We had 1 lecture for vital signs and 1 lecture for head-to-toe assessment and that was it. We got to practice only 2 times in the skill lab and now we are expected to be able to...

  25. my first poop/ nasty experience... just wanna share

    Sharingan replied to 9livesRN's topic in General Students

    Great story! I really admire you, OP. You did a great job and even helped your friend out. Thanks for sharing! I'll be starting my first clinical this Thurs. Hopefully, it won't be too
