  1. Any mothers in nursing school with preschool-age children?

    kayty2339 replied to emptyboxcars's topic in General Students

    Just to add some more info...in my program, it's the students that have kids/families that seem to be doing better in school and make better grades. The younger, more traditional college age students...

    I have two kids. One 5 and one 2. Right now, my son goes to my moms during the day and my daughter goes to daycare part time (the other days she goes to my moms too). So I'm lucky I have family help...

  4. Saunders comprehensive review or Prentice Hall?

    kayty2339 replied to starmickey03's topic in General Students

    I got the saunders and I also got prentice hall "med/surg reviews and rationals"...I have to say, both are great. The reviews/rationals book seems to lay information out in a better format to me. One...

  5. Jeff Davis-Brewton

    kayty2339 replied to Honeybee737's topic in Alabama Nursing

    Just to put in some input about PJC since you've been asking about JD and PJC. First off, about the rolling backpack issue...I did not want a rolling book bag, I always thought they were dorky and...

  6. What was your hardest topic in Med/Surg I or Adults I? Any tips?

    kayty2339 posted a topic in General Students

    I'm finishing up Fundamentals and heading into Adults I and Mental Health for the summer semester. In my program (4 semester ADN) the summer semester is the one that most people end up flunking out...

  7. Nursing School Drama queens

    kayty2339 replied to dinah77's topic in General Students

    Yeah, I didn't know about not sharing grades either. I've been doing well on my tests and who knows, maybe that's why people are acting funny. The thing is though, after our test everybody hangs out...

  8. Nursing School Drama queens

    kayty2339 replied to dinah77's topic in General Students

    I also have noticed some of the childish highschool like drama in my class. I tend to try to socialize with everyone and not conform myself to one little clique of friends. It's just how I am and how...

  10. Dear future nursing students,

    kayty2339 replied to BeeFree963's topic in General Students

    About the competitive students...are you talking about students that just do really well and try really hard to make A's? Or are you talking about students who act competitive against other students?...

  11. Is there anything I can work on before starting NS?

    kayty2339 replied to missdixie023's topic in General Students

    Yeah, you're probably right. It wouldn't hurt to know the information, it would only help. I guess I just got discouraged at how much I studied it and then they didn't even really test us on it....

  12. Is there anything I can work on before starting NS?

    kayty2339 replied to missdixie023's topic in General Students

    Yes I'm passing meds. We had a unit on med administration and had to read a bunch of chapters in the pharm. book, but we were barely tested on that information. We had our dosage calc test which you...

  13. Is there anything I can work on before starting NS?

    kayty2339 replied to missdixie023's topic in General Students

    A really great book, Fundamentals Success (a part of Davis's success series)...you can read it now to learn the the testing styles, and you will also use it once you start as well because it has a lot...

  14. I Want To Quit

    kayty2339 replied to citylights89's topic in General Students

    From reading your posts, I personally think you should quit...I know everybody is saying don't quit and you may regret it. But if you truly hate nursing as bad as you do, you shouldn't continue to...

  15. Is it possible to work full time and go to nursing school?

    kayty2339 replied to bn1980's topic in General Students

    I haven't read all the other replies, but just wanted to give my opinion. It is possible because others have done it. But it won't be easy. Nursing school is totally different than any other schooling...

  16. What you had to give up for NS

    kayty2339 replied to amathis's topic in General Students

    *My job-part time for now, but have to quit soon, not the job I care about, but I need the money, thus I will be trying to live off of student loans *Spending time with my kids. *Spending time with my...

  18. Things you would love to say to your fellow nursing students!

    kayty2339 replied to Faeriewand's topic in General Students

    Just because I did good on the first test and "okay" on the second and have a higher average in the class than you, doesn't mean I don't worry about my grades and it doesn't mean I don't have a right...

  19. Flu shots

    kayty2339 replied to Aisha29's topic in General Students

    Why do you keep trying to justify him being a total *******...I'm not arguing about his stance on vaccines...I'm arguing about his rude, arrogant response to the OP. Good lord. Why is that so hard for...

  20. Flu shots

    kayty2339 replied to Aisha29's topic in General Students

    I was saying "wrong" to you. You stated he simply gave information. I was telling you that you are wrong about that. He said it in his post that he wouldn't go into giving factual evidence to back up...

  21. Flu shots

    kayty2339 replied to Aisha29's topic in General Students

    Exactly... Wrong...He chose not to give information and instead gave an insult and assumed that the op must just be a stupid student not listening in class. He didn't consider that she may not have...

  22. Flu shots

    kayty2339 replied to Aisha29's topic in General Students

    Wow, "TheSquire" your post is really condescending. Instead of just giving your opinion on the matter, knowing nothing at all about the op, you throw in cheap shots and insults. "I'd go on to explain...

  23. Question for ANY PJC Nursing Student/Alumni

    kayty2339 replied to copelald's topic in Florida Nursing

    From people I've talked to, most people get all the pre/co-reqs done before the nursing classes start. But there are those that have other classes to take during the nursing program because they need...
