  1. Need advice--possibly failing orientation

    That's horrible! To me it seems like your "team" didn't support you in your learning curve time. I worked at a hospital that had a policy of eliminating the ZERO FAULT OR FIRED standard, which gave nurses opportunity to learn, opportunity to ask fo...
  2. Nursing student asks nurses the question..

    ***DING***DING***DING***DING*** I was chuckling when I read this. I know exactly what you mean. When an educator/clinical instructor shows up on the floor, it may not be on your radar as a nurse. It's not like they announce to all the nurses who...

    Stan was still confused by the distinction between the floor's nurse "ANESTHETIST" and the nurse "AESTHETICIAN!!!"

  7. UMB prerequisites, help please!

    I had some goofy grades from 20 years ago but they were still RIGHT THERE on my transcript when I applied. My GPA when I applied was 3.82 for the college where I graduated from, 3.0 overall on graduation day with the bad 20-year old grades, and for ...

  9. University of Maryland CNL Accepted Students Fall 2010

    HEY, YA'LL! NURS 507 class presentations and reading files are available for download on Blackboard if you log in! Get to it! Yay! (I haven't see anything besides this class there yet, though) Everyone ready?
  10. LOL! Exlnt!!!! (Excellent, for those text challenged folks) Here's my take : It's good to be highly discerning and critical when it comes to saving lives and making important decisions. But I think being so "Type A" that you have to knock on othe...
  11. I just found out my grade in Chemistry tonight. I earned a B. It sort of felt like a kick in the stomach. I tried so hard for an A. What bothers me is that I have several friends in nursing school, who all used to make A's in their undergraduate ...
  12. Websites...

    http://www.khanacademy.org/ is a great site for remembering all things chemistry and many things biology. Scroll down on page. I used to use this to review while studying Chemistry. Nice, slow, easy to follow 9 minute onscreen lectures.
  13. What are you doing to get ready???

    WHOAH! Looks like I'm already behind! Let me go and get my act together!
  14. Yes. Is this something that faculty finds "admirable?" ~~~Being the teacher that no one can learn from? How is this a virtue on a resume? All teaching and learning styles aside, it's the teacher's responsibility to TEACH. It's the student's resp...
  15. My learning experience...just to share

    LOL! Hall of Shame! Oh, I can't wait! LOL!
  16. My learning experience...just to share

    WOW! You are absolutely RIGHT! It IS hard to refocus after being sliced to bits. I mean, all that snapping is terribly distracting and invasive to the learning curve! I'm going to file this away under my "ADMIRABLE BEHAVIOR" section of my mind,...

  20. Earning a B in Chemistry really has me in a funk!

    MegRN2B! You are my HERO! You hear that? My HERO! Awesome! This really brightened my day! You're an angel! :lttang:
  21. Earning a B in Chemistry really has me in a funk!

    Ha ha! ABSOLUTELY! I'm currently polling all my nursey-buddies to find out which studying strategies are working best for them in school. So far, I am hearing, "Keep your books with you at all times, and pull them out when ever you get a chance!" ...

    Thanks, ThatGuy!
  23. Earning a B in Chemistry really has me in a funk!

    THIS is the key. I really DO want to be a smashing student nurse. Thanks, DolceVita! :grad:
  24. Earning a B in Chemistry really has me in a funk!

    Thanks mmt4! Yeah, my big brother was a Chemistry major. I am wondering how he did on his General Chem class. Was he frazzled? I'll have to get him on the phone and find out. Right now it's hard getting him to sit still for a moment. He's a den...
