  1. What are my chances for admission - pls advise

    HyperSaurus, RN replied to RN2Be77's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    HyperSaurus, RN replied to CPaulino's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I was faced with that decision too. I am a 3rd year and I spent alot of time putzing, and not getting the work done so it didn't look likely I would get the RN program, so my advisor suggested the LPN...

  5. I am not liking the nervous system.....

    HyperSaurus, RN replied to midnight*sky's topic in General Students

    What's confusing you? I'm finishing up the Nervous system as well. This is my second time around, and it's making alot more sense for me. Flashcards right after lecture really help. Anyway, what's...

    HyperSaurus, RN replied to Dionyonce's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  7. tips for quality study?

    HyperSaurus, RN replied to retread71's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I handwrite notes during class, type them up in outline form right after class, then make flash cards from the typed up outline. That forces me to go over the information several times. It's handy to...

  8. A & P: I...Am I the only one that feels completely lost?

    HyperSaurus, RN replied to Holly5477's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    HyperSaurus, RN replied to amillender's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm retaking Nutrition...last time I had it, my professor was crazily disorganized and I was crazily lazy (what a fun phrase). This time around, I have a different prof and I'm getting A's. It's...

  10. Best Advice for Bad Procrastination??

    HyperSaurus, RN replied to NursingRocks1998's topic in General Students

  12. Wana Be A Nurse When I Grow Up

    HyperSaurus, RN replied to Karla_WanaB_aNurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've known I wanted to be a nurse since Junior year of high school, but it took me until my Junior year of college to get my act together to be able to even think of applying. I'm hoping for Fall '09...

    HyperSaurus, RN replied to Katharine's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
