    Irritating Classmates

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to ImThatGuy's topic in General Students

    Most of our teachers are annoyed with the same students that me and my friends are sick of. You can tell by the way they respond to them in class. I can't help but laugh when you can tell the teacher...

    Adderall and nursing school

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to struggles's topic in General Students

    Can someone explain how a study group is at all effective?

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to bhanson's topic in General Students

    Psych Clinical

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to aismail3's topic in General Students

    Communication is one of the most important parts of being a good nurse. If this is your weakest area than this will be especially good for you. Psych is such an important subject that gets brushed off...

    This is why you should be careful what you post on facebook

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to semester1kid's topic in General Students

    Well knowing the details makes it a little different than. Wearing the schools clothes was stupid on her part. Even if the photo was suggestive or what not had she not been "representing" the school,...

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to christelt's topic in General Students

    In our program you can sit for LPN boards after the first year. You have to do an extra clinical rotation beforehand, but after the clinical rotation you are eligible. The material did get harder in...

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to semester1kid's topic in General Students

    She is dumb for not keeping her stuff private in this day and age, but that is absurd on the schools part also and probably one I would legally fight. I mean I didn't see the pics to see exactly what...

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to MickeysMom's topic in General Students

    I feel the same way. I got in and was waiting for it to get like I would read. I mean each semester we have had a "hell week" where we had so much to do and so much pressure and no time to breath that...

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to MickeysMom's topic in General Students

    My first semester Fundamentals class I thought was gravy, we did lose like 6 people (out of 50) that class, so it wasn't easy per say, but I got a B in it, B is 85% at my school and I believe I got an...

    Infant Circumcision in Nursing school

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to AmberLB's topic in General Students

    That's right, the students helped with calming the baby, like the sugar water. I forgot about that. I watched one on Youtube once after having my 3 sons done. My mom watched theirs. After watching the...

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to AmberLB's topic in General Students

    ~Mi Vida Loca~RN replied to ~Mi Vida Loca~RN's topic in General Students

    I can't believe how many people get soooo worked up over a simple question. The original post never belittled anyone, talked bad about students that are doing their Pre Reqs or anything of the sort....
