  1. Columbus Tech Summer 2010

    KatyAtlanta replied to srobb11's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I used the text for the 2103 class, just skimmed thru and mostly paid attention to the terms and definitions. I remember how cold that room was! I always had a sweater, even in

  2. Columbus Tech Summer 2010

    KatyAtlanta replied to srobb11's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Hi Eniles2, Paeonia & Constance, Congratulations to you all! Here are a few tips on the books you've mentioned. I haven't seen your list, but I expect you're to get Kozier & Erbs Fundamentals...

  3. Columbus Tech Summer 2010

    KatyAtlanta replied to srobb11's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Well the bright side is that you'll likely get an A and that will help with your overall GPA later. If you test out, you only get a Pass/Fail so you don't get the points to help raise the GPA if those...

  4. Need A Good Bag For School????

    KatyAtlanta replied to Misslady113's topic in General Students

    Melosaur, I couldn't agree with you more! I read the chapters before lecture. I bring only my binder to class and take very good notes. My heavy books stay at home! Then I put it all together to...

  6. Nurse Jackie UWGA RN-BSN Project

    KatyAtlanta replied to VicMoWestGA's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Are you serious? This is a television show. Frankly, I think it's one of the most entertaining shows on now. I can't see how it in anyway damages the "image" of dedicated, hardworking, professional...

  7. M.R.S.A or mersa?

    KatyAtlanta replied to Pepper The Cat's topic in General Nursing

    Most at my facility say, "mersa", but we always write. "M.R.S.A"

  8. Stethoscope colors...HELP!

    KatyAtlanta replied to oguesswhat's topic in General Nursing

    Have you considered the raspberry? It'd look great with your navy scrubs, and is, in my opinion, much prettier, and a bit more subtle than the baby

  9. Did taking Chemistry really help you become a good nurse?

    KatyAtlanta replied to Ted D's topic in General Nursing

    Of course Chemistry helps you become a good nurse! EVERYTHING we learn helps us to become better nurses. I happen to think that everything we learn helps us to become better companions, friends,...

  10. nursing program without waitlist

    KatyAtlanta replied to sue19's topic in General Nursing

    This is only a bit off topic... I don't understand the "waiting list". At our school, you might be wait-listed only until they see if all the first round acceptances take the spots offered. If someone...

  11. Female nurse uniform

    KatyAtlanta replied to donkey's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I think it looks very much like the Aeroflot stewardess uniforms from the

  12. Night Shift?

    KatyAtlanta replied to gsxtreme1987's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA

    We are not allowed to attend our clinicals if we have worked past 11:30pm on the night before. It's a safety issue. You might be able to do the night shift while you're getting your pre-reqs, but I...

  13. Male Nurses

    KatyAtlanta replied to Keptonkurtis's topic in General Nursing

  14. Help! How to handle sleep with nursing school schedule???

    KatyAtlanta replied to MystyqueOne's topic in General Students

    Okay, this won't be popular...we're "supposed" to be able to do everything, but have you considered postponing school until your youngest begins kindergarten? Maybe you can get some pre-reqs done...

  15. Columbus Tech RN Program, what are my chances??

    KatyAtlanta replied to LeslieLHarris's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Congratulations! You've chosen a very, very good program! I hope you'll be very happy there. Thanks for sharing your good

  16. CLARIFICATION

    KatyAtlanta replied to oseibonsu's topic in General Nursing

    The fact is, English doesn't give us the choice of a "neuter" gender. And if it did, we'd likely complain about it. Reading he/she, him/her, etc. is very cumbersome. I'm female, but have no problem...

  17. Last name on badges?

    KatyAtlanta replied to BroncoSmoLVN's topic in General Nursing

    You're right, but did you know you can go to Google & Whitepages.com and follow several steps to opt out of having your information displayed? Shame to need to, but nice to know we

  18. Columbus Tech RN Program, what are my chances??

    KatyAtlanta replied to LeslieLHarris's topic in Georgia Nursing

    I think you're definitely getting in! Those are great scores-you should be very proud! One thing to keep in mind... there are 40 spots, so you just need to be somewhere in the top 40. The person that...

  19. Columbus Tech RN Program, what are my chances??

    KatyAtlanta replied to LeslieLHarris's topic in Georgia Nursing

    Was your 95 on the pre-NLN the composite score or the percentile score? How were your COMPASS scores? And related to your GPA, how were your A/P I & II grades? Did your interview go

  20. Question about school supplies

    KatyAtlanta replied to larien37's topic in General Students

    Okay, here's a naive question...what's with all these "Littmans growing legs" aphorisms??? Are some students carelessly leaving their steths around and losing them? Or are they being stolen? If...

  21. Military Nursing Question

    KatyAtlanta replied to HippyGreenPeaceChick's topic in Government, Military

    Do you know the upper age limit for any/all

  22. Helppppp i need help in deciding.

    KatyAtlanta replied to 2bLeonurse1989's topic in Georgia Nursing

    just curious...if you're in columbus already, did you look at columbus technical college's adn (rn) program? it's excellent, has a very high nclex pass rate, and is amazingly affordable....

  23. 40,0000 for RN program

    The Georgia Technical College System offers ADN (RN) programs at various colleges through the state. At Columbus Technical College, if pre-reqs are completed, the nursing component only takes 6...

  24. tatted up and in nursing school

    KatyAtlanta replied to mscgirl09's topic in General Nursing

    This isn't just an issue for nursing school. You'll possibly face this kind of stress every time you apply for a nursing job. Right or wrong, tattoos can have a certain stigma. Just be willing to deal...

  25. I cannot STAND working in lab student discrimination!

    KatyAtlanta replied to Ms. Nurse Assistant's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    This really may not be about you being black. Now maybe this doesn't apply in your case, but here's what happened with me. I'm white, and there was a girl in my lab (also white) who was always late...
