um....I don't think that's true. I cannot believe the nurse said that. Flu vaccine will not make the person sick after getting it, unless the person is allergic to egg.
My school also uses ATI and I don't think it's helpful for preparing nclex. I might have to try Kaplan even though it costs alot. I think my nursing textbooks are the great resources.
congrats! I feel the same way. I'm so happy that I passed this term. I have two terms (quaters) left and am graduating in June, 2009. Good luck all of you!
I just had Neuro lectures MNEMONIC for cranial nerves: On Old Olympus' Towering Top A Finn And German Viewed Some Hops Mnemonic motor/sensory/both: Some Say Mary Money But My Brother Says Big Brains Matter Most I hope these would help. ^^
ours we have no grading system, either pass or no pass...which is scary for me. but some students think it is much better than getting letter grades well...i passed this term, that's all that matter to me.
